Make your data Trump-proof: How the independent cloud from Germany can protect you from data misuse
Mach deine Daten Trump-sicher: Wie die unabhängige Cloud aus Deutschland Dich vor Datenmissbrauch schützen kann

The decision for a hosting partner is no longer a purely technical question. She has directImpact on your safety. Anyone who puts websites, data or applications in the cloud today should know where this data is located - and who can access it. Because the dangers of choosing the wrong hoster are great.

Does Trump have your data in his hands?

Many German users today rely on solutions from large tech companies that do not come from Europe. This seems practical at first glance, but it involves big hidden risks - because if you choose a non-European service, that is the caseControl over your datano longer with you.

Because non-European providers are subject to laws like thisAmerican CLOUD Act. This obliges them to give the US authorities access to the data they store - even if it is physically stored in Europe. And this doesn't just apply to American companies, eitherfor numerous non-European countries. So if the president of another country wants to harm us Europeans, he can simply give the order that all companies from his country should block or even delete our data. TheThe consequences of this would be catastrophic– nothing would work in our society anymore. With this power, other countries can try to blackmail us.

If you have stored your data with a non-European provider, you are also affected by this risk. Your data can be viewed, blocked or deleted without your knowledge - simply because a third country orders it.For you this means: loss of controlt. In fact, you have to hope every day that no president in another country comes up with the idea of ​​harming Europe and Germany.

FAQs on Digital Sovereignty

Why a European cloud?
Imagine that your data is not scattered somewhere, but is safely stored in a data center within the EU. European providers are subject to the GDPR - this means clear rules instead of gray areas. If you care about who does what with your data, there is hardly any way around a location in Europe.
What does the CLOUD Act mean for you?
Briefly explained: The CLOUD Act obliges US companies to hand over data - even if it is not physically located in the USA. A server in Germany? Doesn't help if the provider is based in California. And you usually don't even notice anything about it. Sounds worrying? It is too.
How does netcup ensure data protection and control?
It's simple: netcup uses its own servers, all in Europe. Plus open source instead of black box. This gives you back control. You know where your data is and who can access it - and who can't.
Why netcup and not one of the large international providers?
At netcup you don't get a standard off-the-shelf solution, but offers with substance: transparent contracts, no hidden clauses, no dependence on third countries. Plus green electricity, certified safety and more than 15 years of experience.
Is switching to the netcup cloud complicated or expensive?
Neither. The change is clearly structured and supported. The prices are understandable and contract terms are flexible. No nasty surprises, no tripping hazards – just get started.
