Data sovereignty

Your data stays in Canada, under Canadian law.

Where your data physically sits determines whose courts can reach it. We keep ours here, and we will tell you exactly what runs where.

Where your data lives

Our shared hosting servers are located with a Montreal service provider that has been operating since 1996. Its parent company is Dutch, not American. Your websites, databases, email, and backups never leave the country, so they are never exposed to foreign disclosure orders like the US CLOUD Act.

We choose Canadian suppliers wherever a Canadian option exists — registrar, data centre, payments, and support. Where no Canadian equivalent exists we choose reputable European options.

Servers in Montreal, Quebec

Dedicated hardware we lease and administer ourselves, in a Canadian data centre — not a reseller slice of someone else's cloud.
Backups stay in Canada

Every backup copy is retained in the same jurisdiction as the primary data. Nothing is replicated across a border for convenience.
No United States cloud for client data

We do not use US-operated storage, compute, or content delivery for anything you host with us.

Why it matters

Three practical consequences of hosting outside Canada that rarely appear in a provider's marketing.

Foreign legal process

Data held by a US-operated provider can be reachable under US law regardless of the country the server sits in. Keeping data with a Canadian operator keeps that route closed.

Procurement and privacy reviews

Public bodies, health organisations, and funders increasingly require a written statement of data residency. We can give you one naming every supplier.

Practical recourse

If something goes wrong, a Canadian supplier and a Canadian contract mean your remedies are in a court you can actually reach.

Ask us what runs where.

If you need a written statement of data residency for a procurement or privacy review, we will give you one naming every supplier in the chain.
