We can increase site speed and efficiency for you by copying your user information (which may include sensitive data) to one of our servers in Korea . Please note that privacy protections provided by Korea may be different from those provided by your country.

Now I’m not sure what a copy in Korea has to do with optimal performance, but something tells me I won’t like the answer if I do some research. I picked the yes option. Faster is good and I doubt Koreans have any worse security than our own government.
