Why Switzerland

Switzerland offers the revised nFADP data-protection regime, mandatory mutual-legal-assistance process with dual-criminality review, and permanent neutrality. It is the strongest "defensible in front of a regulator" address on the network, with 8 ms latency to Frankfurt.

  • Revised federal data-protection statute with criminal liability for unlawful disclosure 2023
  • Foreign requests must run through mutual legal assistance with dual-criminality review 1983
  • Not an EU member; EU directives have no direct effect 1999

The trade-off

Switzerland is not a takedown-immune jurisdiction. Swiss courts issue orders and we comply with valid Swiss ones. What you buy here is process: dual criminality, judicial review, and a state with no alliance obligation to fast-track a foreign request.

§03 FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01 How much is a storage in Switzerland?

From $23.00 per month at ZRH-2 · Glattbrugg up to $139.00 for the largest configuration. Prices include DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64 and full root access.

02 Why choose Switzerland for this?

Switzerland delivers the revised nFADP data-protection regime, mandatory mutual-legal-assistance process with dual-criminality review, and permanent neutrality. It is the strongest "defensible in front of a regulator" address on the network, with 8 ms latency to Frankfurt. Best for financial and legal data, enterprise workloads needing a defensible address, encrypted backup vaults and eu-adjacent latency without eu jurisdiction.

03 What is the catch with Switzerland?

Switzerland doesn't shield you from all takedowns. Courts there can order removal, and Incognito VPS honors valid Swiss orders. What you get is due process: dual-criminality checks, judicial oversight, and a state that won't fast-track foreign requests due to alliance ties.

04 Do you require identity verification in Switzerland?

No. Token-only accounts and crypto-only settlement apply across all 16 locations, with no personal or contact data collected at any point.
