What the source record says
The operator states that for security reasons the facility's exact address is not publicly disclosed, and places it in Lake Park; its corporate office is 1501 35th Ave W, Spencer. Business Record lists the data center against the Spencer corporate address (9,000 sq ft, in service 2011), so the two sources disagree on which town holds the building. Coordinates are the Lake Park municipal centroid and are approximate accordingly. Cooling type is inferred from the operator's own description of a chilled, recirculating plant, per the recirculating-circuit tie-breaker.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
