Data Sovereignty - Option to keep data onshore in locations

I have posed a question to Amazon twice through their contact page over the past 2 weeks but have never heard back. Can anyone confirm that if you use Cloud drive, can you specifically configure it so that you data is only stored in a specific location (eg. Australia). I would not mind using Cloud drive but an organization I am part of that is subject to Aus privacy laws will most likely request that I use a product like Objective Connect. Any guidance appreciated.. especially from any Amazon reps on these forums.

Hi stardestr0yer, Welcome to the dev forums and thanks for posting! At this time, there is no option for the customer to configure where their data is stored. Also, because you said that you are part of an organization, we should clarify that Cloud Drive is designed for personal use only, and commercial applications would breach the Terms of Use (p 1.2). Thanks! http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/?nodeId=201376540
