Maintain Data Privacy With These Offshore Hosting Resources

TL; DR: Although you could stick to declining the use of “cookies” while you browse, you can do more to ensure your data stays private online. One way to do so is to choose privacy-first solutions like HostMeNow. HostMeNow is a private offshore web host that allows users to skip providing personal information and sign up (and pay) anonymously. Its hosting solutions are privacy-focused and offer users everything they need to launch their projects. We spoke with the CEO and Managing Director of HostMeNow about the hosting service, its VPN and proxy solutions, and how the team stays agile in today’s fast-paced tech world.

Companies may know a lot more about you than you might like. The other day, I was helping my sister buy a bike online. She ended up finding one on a popular site. Once she hit checkout, the site asked her to sign into her account — one she forgot she had.

After pulling up her account, to her surprise, she realized the website had all her card and address information saved although she hadn’t purchased from there in years.

Unfortunately, many companies have little regard for user and data privacy. In fact, some even sell data to other companies, like the case of Netflix and Facebook. Earlier this year, Facebook was accused of giving Netflix access to users’ direct messages for years — although Meta has denied this allegation twice since.

But you don’t have to leave your data privacy to chance. Plenty of platforms out there do the work to keep your data private and are completely transparent about it. If you need hosting and want to protect your data from intrusive eyes, you can try private offshore hosting.

“With increasing concerns about privacy and data security, many users are seeking solutions that protect their information from intrusive policies. Offshore hosting provides that added layer of protection,” said the CEO of HostMeNow.

HostMeNow is a private offshore hosting service headquartered in the Netherlands. It provides all the different types of hosting services you love but with data and user privacy as a bonus.

The team also specializes in VPNs and proxies for added security. Below, we’ll go over HostMeNow’s offerings, its commitment to user privacy, and what it plans to do next with its platform.

Founded in 2018, HostMeNow launched for one primary reason — privacy. Its entire business model is established on providing fast and secure hosting that doesn’t compromise privacy. That’s because the team knows how needed privacy-focused hosting is today.

“Offshore hosting has gained popularity, especially among users who prefer their data hosted in privacy-friendly countries like the Netherlands,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.

The fight for data privacy has only amplified over the years. Data is being produced at exponential rates, and companies are collecting more of it. The waters of data privacy are also becoming murkier, as new technologies, such as AI, enter the arena.

As technology advances, there will only be more data for companies to sell or for bad actors to expose in data breaches. Located in the Netherlands, HostMeNow takes data privacy seriously and is committed to helping users protect their data from nonconsensual access.

All of its solutions are privacy-focused, from its web hosting to its VPN and proxy services. And privacy starts right at the beginning of the buyer journey. HostMeNow doesn’t require you to give any personal information, including for the payment process.

It’s no KYC (Know Your Customer), which means there is no mandatory verification process for users. HostMeNow also accepts cryptocurrency. But its privacy-first services aren’t the only thing that distinguishes it from competitors.

“What truly sets us apart is our commitment to providing privacy-focused services, as well as our strong online chat support, which ensures customers can easily reach us whenever needed,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.

HostMeNow offers attentive customer service, with quick response and resolution times. You also don’t have to worry about its hosting speeds. HostMeNow uses LiteSpeed web servers with fast SSD storage. Users can enjoy a range of solutions, including shared cPanel hosting, VPS hosting, and dedicated servers with both worldwide and offshore locations.

“We also offer VPS and dedicated server options in key regions like Europe and Asia, giving users the flexibility to choose locations that best meet their needs for performance and privacy,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.

To cap it off, its state-of-the-art data centers, located in Finland and the Netherlands, are equipped with advanced technology, redundant power supply, and low-latency connectivity. So you know you’ll receive a great foundation for your hosting environments with HostMeNow.

HostMeNow is all about user privacy and security. So it comes as no surprise that it also offers VPN and proxy services on its platform.

Starting with its VPN, this type of service enables you to have anonymity online, no matter where you are. HostMeNow’s VPN is accessible across more than 60 countries and has a strict no-activity logs guarantee, so you can protect your identity and privacy.

“We prioritize protecting sensitive information, and our VPN ensures that users can browse the internet securely, shielding their data from hackers and surveillance,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.

The HostMeNow team recently released a new proxy service tailored for business professionals. This service was created to help professionals as they manage multiple online accounts or conduct data collection and analysis.

HostMeNow has a host of proxy offerings. It includes:

• Rotating Residential Proxies: These proxies rotate IP addresses from a pool of real residential addresses, making them ideal for tasks such as managing multiple social media accounts across different platforms, running marketing campaigns, and collecting data for analysis.
• Static Residential Proxies: These provide a fixed residential IP, which is perfect for long-term account management or consistent data access from a single IP.
• Mobile Proxies: Mobile proxies use IPs from mobile networks and are beneficial for businesses needing mobile traffic simulation or managing mobile-based social accounts and apps.
• Static Datacenter Proxies: These proxies offer high-speed, reliable connections from data center IPs. They are well-suited for tasks requiring fast access and reliable uptime such as automated tasks, web scraping, or accessing online platforms for business use.

Each proxy caters to a different experience, allowing users to choose the most ideal solution for their needs.

HostMeNow’s CEO told us how the team keeps a fresh approach in the fast-changing world of tech and hosting.

“As newer technologies continue to shape the hosting industry, our team stays agile by closely monitoring market trends and adapting to evolving customer needs,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.

He said the team is always willing to consider customer requests. If a service is highly requested, the team will source it and add it to the HostMeNow platform. As it happens, the team recently added Asia as a location for VPS and dedicated servers due to customer requests.

“We prioritize continuous learning and development to ensure our services remain cutting-edge while delivering top-tier support,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.

While we’re on the subject of new solutions, HostMeNow has a couple of developments on its road map. These developments include reseller cPanel hosting and a domain reseller API.

HostMeNow plans to launch its reseller cPanel hosting soon. It’s designed for small web hosts and website design managers who need help to manage and host multiple websites efficiently.

“Additionally, we are gradually introducing a domain reseller API, allowing web hosts to sell domain names through our platform. For example, you could create a Telegram bot to sell domain names via our API,” said HostMeNow’s CEO.
