FI · The legal picture

Why host in Finland?

Helsinki draws two groups. People serving Finnish and Baltic users, where FICIX and Telia on-net keep that traffic local, and people who have to answer a carbon question in a procurement form and would rather point at the district heating loop than at an offset certificate. It is also the usual second Nordic failure domain.

The legal picture

Helsinki is governed by the GDPR alongside the national Data Protection Act, and the Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman supervises it. Finland narrowed its communications-retention rules after the Court of Justice ruled against blanket retention, and what survives is aimed at telecommunications operators rather than at hosting providers — a boundary that is not settled. Confidentiality of communications is protected in the constitution. Copyright complaints have a statutory notice route; removing anything else broadly takes a court order.

Questions specific to Finland

01Does Finnish law make you log more about my server than you do elsewhere?
No. We hold what section 1 of the privacy policy lists and nothing else, in Helsinki as everywhere: an email address, invoices, instance configuration, 72 hours of NetFlow used only for abuse work, support tickets for 24 months, and an IP address and timestamp for console logins for 30 days. Finland's surviving retention rules are written for telecommunications operators and we do not operate as one, though where that boundary falls for a host has not been tested. An order valid in Finland gets that list.
02Helsinki or Stockholm?
Stockholm has more capacity and more peers; Helsinki has FICIX and the shorter path into Finnish and Estonian networks. If your users are Finnish, take Helsinki. If they are spread across the Nordics, take Stockholm and add Helsinki later — two countries on two exchanges is the point of running both rather than one larger instance.

Questions

Questions about hosting in Finland

01Do I really not have to verify my identity?
Correct. Ordering requires an email address and a payment, and that is the whole list. There is no document upload, no selfie, no phone verification, no address check and no card on file. We have never run identity verification and we do not plan to start — the cheapest way to protect customer documents is to never hold any.
02What do you actually store about me?
Your email address, your invoices, the configuration of your servers, and 72 hours of NetFlow-level connection metadata used only for abuse investigation. Nothing else. When you close the account, all of it is erased within 24 hours except invoices, which accounting law makes us keep for ten years — those hold an invoice name of your choosing and no verified identity.
03Why can I only buy six or twelve months at a time?
Because it is what makes the price possible. Monthly billing means churn, idle capacity kept warm for people who might come back, payment retries and support load. Selling in terms removes all of it, and lets us buy hardware against known demand rather than a forecast. The saving goes straight into the rate card — a twelve-month Base works out around 20% below the six-month rate, and both are below what monthly billing would cost us to offer.
04How many IP addresses do I get?
One dedicated IPv4 and a routed /64 of IPv6 with every plan. Up to eight extra IPv4 addresses can be added at €1.20 each per month, assigned from the region's own prefix so geolocation stays consistent. A routed /48 of IPv6 is €2 a month if you are running your own network behind us.
05Is DDoS protection included?
Yes, on every plan, with no separate charge and no traffic threshold. Volumetric attacks are absorbed by hardware scrubbers at the edge and mitigation engages in under four seconds. The advanced tier adds layer-7 scrubbing and rules you write yourself, which matters for game servers and public APIs but not for much else.
06Is port 25 open? Can I run a mail server?
Port 25 is closed by default on new instances and opened on request — send a ticket saying what you are sending and to roughly how many recipients. It usually takes under an hour. Custom reverse DNS on both v4 and v6 is self-service from the console, which is the part that actually determines whether your mail lands.
