Privacy Policy

At Hostner, Your personal data is kept confidential by Hostner. We don’t sell it, rent it, or share it with third parties.

Your data stays within Europe and is never shared with third parties for advertising.

Trust starts with transparency. That includes the tools we use.

Hostner is a European dedicated server hosting provider, part of Ormilon Group, focused on giving you control over your own infrastructure with privacy built in from the start.

If you have any questions about how we handle your data, email us at [email protected].

We only collect personal data when you choose to interact with us for example, when you:

• • Visit our website
  • Sign up for early access or our newsletter
  • Order or use our services
  • Make a payment (fiat or crypto)
  • Contact us directly

We use this data to communicate with you, run your service, and make sure everything works smoothly. We never use your data for anything you didn’t agree to.

Google Analytics (GA4) transfers data to the US. This conflicts with Hostner’s EU-data positioning. Before publishing: either enable IP anonymisation + data processing in the EU (GA4 setting), implement a server-side proxy, or replace with a privacy-friendly self-hosted alternative. Confirm with counsel before publishing this page.

Hostner supports crypto payments and allows pseudonymous registration. This means you can sign up and use our services without providing your real name, as long as no legal trigger applies.

However, you should be aware of the following:

• Crypto is not anonymous. Transactions are recorded on a public blockchain. The transaction reference, wallet address, and amount are visible on-chain and outside our control.
• Legal obligations apply. Depending on transaction amounts and applicable regulations — including anti-money laundering law (WWFT) and EU crypto-asset regulation (MiCA) — we may be required to verify your identity before or during your use of our services.
• Data may be shared. If required by law or competent authority, we may be required to share transaction data or identity information. We will always act within the limits of applicable law.

We are transparent about these obligations. Using Hostner under a pseudonym does not exempt you from legal requirements that apply to you or to us.

COUNSEL: Add the specific KYC trigger thresholds (transaction amounts), WWFT record-keeping periods, and any MiCA-specific disclosure obligations. These are operational/compliance facts — confirm exact numbers with AML counsel before publishing.

We use functional cookies and similar technologies to improve our website, measure performance, and understand how users interact with our content. Other cookies for things like analytics and marketing are optional and only active if you allow them.

For a full overview of the cookies we use, including recipients, purposes, data types, storage locations, and legal bases, please refer to our Cookie Policy.

You are in charge of your data. At any time, you can:

• • Ask what data we hold about you
  • Correct your data
  • Delete your data
  • Withdraw your consent

Email us at [email protected] and we will handle it clearly and within the legal response window.

All data we collect is hosted securely in Europe. Every back-up of our own environments and of your data is also created and stored within Europe — no copy ever leaves the EU.

We apply industry-standard security practices and restrict access to those who genuinely need it.

If we change how we use your data, we’ll update this page and let you know if it affects you directly. We always keep things transparent.

Effective Date: 23 May 2025
