Is it based there, as in, that is where the company is registered?

Or is it based there, as in, that is where the servers are?

If that's just where the company is registered, no big deal really. (As far as I know) If the servers / infrastructure for the service is there, then that is more worrisome.

It's registered in AU and they have operations there, but they claim the "main servers" are in the US.

The CEO griped that secret code added to their platform, required by the law, could foul their operations or get accidentally fixed, so they certainly think they're subject to it.
