Hosting
An overview of how our hosting infrastructure is set up and where your data lives.
Cloud Infrastructure
We use Hetzner Cloud as our primary cloud provider, a European company headquartered in Germany. Because Hetzner is EU-sovereign, your data is never subject to non-EU data access legislation such as the US CLOUD Act. Hetzner operates ISO 27001-certified data centers and has a strong commitment to privacy and sustainability.
Application Architecture
Our application runs on a containerized architecture. This gives us:
- Containers can be dynamically scaled based on demand
- Identical environments across development, staging, and production
- Isolated application components for better fault tolerance
- Faster deployment cycles and efficient resource use
Database Management
Our cloud provider manages the database infrastructure. This covers:
- Automated backups and failover for high availability
- Managed scaling and monitoring for performance
- Automatic security patches and updates
- Point-in-time recovery for disaster recovery
Security Measures
We treat data protection as a core part of our hosting setup.
Data Encryption
- All stored data is encrypted at rest using industry-standard protocols
- All data in transit between services and to end-users is encrypted
Infrastructure Security
- A Web Application Firewall (WAF) protects against common web threats and attacks
- Regular security assessments and monitoring
- Network isolation and access controls
- Compliance with industry security standards
Reliability and Performance
Our hosting setup includes:
- Load balancing to distribute traffic efficiently
