EU Data Sovereignty Hosting.
Your jurisdiction, guaranteed.

Data sovereignty means your information is subject to the laws of the country where it physically resides. When you host with AlphaVPS in an EU location, your data is governed exclusively by EU law - GDPR, the ePrivacy Directive, and national data protection regulations.

EU-Incorporated Company DA International Group Ltd. is registered in Bulgaria, an EU member state since 2007. No parent company in a non-EU jurisdiction. No foreign government access under CLOUD Act or FISA.
3 EU Data Center Locations Sofia, Bulgaria · Nuremberg, Germany · London, UK - available for VPS, dedicated servers, and colocation.
No Cross-Border Transfers We own and operate our own infrastructure. No third-party cloud substrates, no US-based management planes, no background replication to non-EU locations. Your data stays where you put it.

With the NIS2 Directive (EU 2022/2555) now in effect, choosing an EU-native infrastructure provider isn't optional for many organisations - it's a regulatory requirement. AlphaVPS gives you verifiable data sovereignty backed by ISO-certified operations.

GDPR compliant
by design.

GDPR isn't a feature we added - it's the regulatory environment AlphaVPS was born into. As an EU-incorporated company, the General Data Protection Regulation has governed our operations since its enforcement in May 2018.

We don't rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions to justify data transfers - because there are no transfers to justify. When you choose an EU location for your VPS or dedicated server, your data stays under GDPR jurisdiction from day one.

Unlike US-headquartered providers operating EU regions, AlphaVPS has no legal obligation to comply with CLOUD Act requests or FISA Section 702 directives. Your data is shielded by EU law - and only EU law.

Data Processing Agreements GDPR-compliant DPAs available on request. Covers processing scope, security measures, sub-processors, and breach notification obligations.
Data Subject Rights Full support for access, rectification, erasure, portability, and restriction of processing. Requests handled within the 30-day GDPR timeframe.
Sub-Processor Transparency We maintain a clear list of sub-processors involved in service delivery. No hidden third parties. Changes are communicated with advance notice.
Breach Notification In the event of a personal data breach, we notify affected customers within 72 hours as required by GDPR Article 33 - and provide full technical details for your own reporting obligations.

ISO 27001 Certified Hosting.
Independently audited.

ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). AlphaVPS holds this certification - independently audited and verified - covering our data center operations, network infrastructure, customer data handling, and internal processes.

The certification means we've implemented a systematic approach to managing sensitive company and customer information. This includes risk assessments, security controls, incident response procedures, access management, and continuous improvement cycles.

What the certification covers:

  • Risk assessment and treatment methodology
  • Access control and identity management
  • Cryptographic controls and key management
  • Physical and environmental security
  • Operations security and change management
  • Incident management and business continuity
  • Supplier relationship security

Certification is maintained through annual surveillance audits and a full recertification cycle every three years.

ISO 9001: Quality Management.
Built into operations.

ISO 9001 certification demonstrates that AlphaVPS operates a formal Quality Management System (QMS) - a structured approach to delivering consistent, high-quality services that meet customer and regulatory requirements.

For hosting customers, this translates to measurable operational discipline: documented procedures for server provisioning, hardware replacement, network changes, and incident response. Every process has defined inputs, outputs, owners, and review cycles.

Continuous Improvement Regular management reviews, internal audits, and corrective action processes ensure services improve systematically - not reactively.
Customer Focus Customer satisfaction is a measured KPI - tracked through support response times, resolution rates, and NPS scores. Feedback directly drives process changes.
Documented Processes From server deployment to incident escalation - every operational procedure is documented, version-controlled, and periodically reviewed.

Physical, network &
operational security.

Compliance certifications validate our processes. But the real protection comes from the infrastructure itself - purpose-built, multi-layered, and operated by our own engineering team.

Physical Security

Tier III data centers with biometric access controls, 24/7 CCTV surveillance, mantrap entry systems, and on-site security personnel. Redundant power (N+1 UPS + diesel generators) and fire suppression across all facilities.

Compliance & Data Sovereignty FAQ

Everything you need to know about data protection, certifications, and EU hosting with AlphaVPS

Yes. AlphaVPS is operated by DA International Group Ltd., a company incorporated and headquartered in Sofia, Bulgaria - an EU member state. GDPR applies to us natively, not as an external requirement we had to retrofit. We offer Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) on request, maintain transparent sub-processor lists, and support all data subject rights including access, rectification, erasure, and portability.

AlphaVPS holds ISO 27001 certification for Information Security Management and ISO 9001 certification for Quality Management Systems. These certifications cover our data center operations, infrastructure management, customer support processes, and internal controls. Both certifications are maintained through annual surveillance audits.

Your data is stored exclusively in the data center location you select when ordering. For EU data residency, choose Sofia (Bulgaria), Nuremberg (Germany), or London (UK). For US-based hosting, choose New York, Dallas, Los Angeles, or Seattle. We never replicate or transfer your data between locations without your explicit instruction.

Yes. We provide GDPR-compliant Data Processing Agreements on request. Contact our support team to receive a signed DPA. The agreement covers the scope of processing, security measures, sub-processor obligations, and data breach notification procedures.

Data sovereignty means your data is subject to the laws and governance of the country where it is physically stored. For EU-based businesses, hosting with an EU-native provider ensures your data stays under EU jurisdiction - protected by GDPR, the ePrivacy Directive, and national data protection laws. This eliminates risks from cross-border data transfers, Schrems II complications, and conflicting foreign government access requests.

AlphaVPS is actively aligning with the NIS2 Directive (EU 2022/2555), which came into force across EU member states in October 2024. As a digital infrastructure provider, we fall within the scope of NIS2. Our ISO 27001 certification provides the foundational security framework that NIS2 builds upon - including risk management, incident reporting, supply chain security, and business continuity measures.

No - not unless you explicitly choose a US data center location. If you select an EU location (Sofia, Nuremberg, or London), your data stays within European jurisdiction. There are no background transfers, no US-based management planes, and no third-party cloud dependencies that would route data outside the EU. AlphaVPS owns and operates its own infrastructure.

Our data centers feature multi-layer physical security including biometric access controls, 24/7 CCTV surveillance, security personnel, mantrap entry systems, and visitor logging. Our primary Sofia facility at Telepoint operates to Tier III standards with redundant power (N+1 UPS, diesel generators), redundant cooling, and fire suppression systems.
