Cloudnet: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Cloudnet is a Danish web hosting and cloud server provider based in Aarhus. It offers hosting for websites and business applications, as well as cloud servers, delivered as services that customers use without running their own physical infrastructure. The company states that it has provided hosting in Aarhus since 1998 and that its hosting takes place in Denmark.

Cloudnet A/S is part of ServicePoint A/S, also based in Aarhus; no foreign parent was identified. The company states that its cloud offering is built on large public cloud platforms from Amazon, Microsoft and Google, so US providers may be among the sub-processors. The data processing agreement published by ServicePoint limits processing to the European Economic Area unless the customer consents in writing, and the sub-processor list is available to logged-in customers. For a European organisation the Danish seat and the EEA commitments are relevant, but the sub-processors of each product should be checked before use.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Cloudnet

Cloudnet is headquartered in DK and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Cloudnet scores best on data residency.

Cloudnet is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Cloudnet together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
