Why Iceland
Iceland pairs constitutional speech protection with the IMMI source-protection framework and no hosting-level data-retention mandate. It sits outside EU enforcement institutions and runs on 100% hydro and geothermal power. It is the strongest legal posture on our network and priced accordingly.
- No general data-retention obligation applies to hosting providers 2022
- Constitutional free-expression protection with narrow, enumerated exceptions 1995
- Statutory source protection for journalists and their intermediaries 2010
The trade-off
The most legally protective address we operate, and the most expensive. Subsea capacity is finite, so bulk-transfer workloads cost more here than anywhere else on the map.

§03 FAQ
Frequently asked questions
01 How much is a vps in Iceland?
Pricing starts at $5.50 per month and goes up to $129.50 for the largest plan at RVK-1 · Hafnarfjörður. Every plan includes DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64, and full root access.
02 Why choose Iceland for this?
Iceland's constitutional speech protections, the IMMI source-protection framework, and the absence of a hosting-level data-retention mandate make it our strongest legal jurisdiction. Outside EU enforcement, it runs on 100% hydro and geothermal power. It suits journalism, leak platforms, archives, mirrors, and long-horizon projects.
03 What is the catch with Iceland?
This is the strongest legal shield in our network, but also the priciest. Because subsea cable capacity is limited, moving large volumes of data here costs more than anywhere else.
04 Do you require identity verification in Iceland?
No. In every one of our 16 locations, we apply the same token-only model: no name, email, phone, or ID is ever required, and payment is accepted only in cryptocurrency.
