European hosting: your data safe in the Netherlands
More and more organisations no longer want to depend on American cloud services. Understandably. We host websites and applications on our own servers in the Netherlands — GDPR-proof and without your data crossing the ocean.
Sound familiar?
Where is your data, actually?
Many websites run on American cloud services, often without the owner knowing. That chafes. US legislation gives the government there far-reaching access to data — even when that data sits in Europe. For organisations handling personal data, that is a serious concern under the GDPR.
Then there is the dependency. Rising prices, changing terms, services being discontinued: you have no say in any of it. Keeping your data and website close to home means keeping control.
That is why we deliberately choose our own servers in the Netherlands. Your website, your data, on Dutch soil.
