Data-control note: The table's “Data owned by shop owner” row is a plain-language comparison of operational data custody/storage. Some hosted competitors state in their terms that customers retain legal ownership of submitted data, while the day-to-day database remains hosted on the provider's cloud infrastructure.
CloudKit note: Apple states that only the user can access their private database by default, the user owns its content, and private database contents are not visible in the developer portal. Internet access is still required for iCloud synchronisation and other online services.
