Virtual private server (VPS) hosters
Virtual private servers from Estonia
EstoniaEU Ownership reviewed, controller unresolvedHigh non-EU dependencyScope verdict
This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.
Operational dependency warning
Current public evidence shows 5 non-European infrastructure or email dependencies across 4 providers: Amazon SES, Cloudflare, Mailgun, Postmark / ActiveCampaign. The reviewed operational path is therefore not entirely European.
V.PS is a virtual private server hoster from Estonia and a subsidiary of xTom. It runs server locations around the world, so you can place a machine close to the people you serve rather than accepting whatever region a provider assigns you.
With an Estonian company behind it, V.PS is a European alternative to the American VPS providers, and the entry level pricing keeps small projects cheap to run. It suits developers who need a plain, affordable Linux server rather than a full cloud platform.
Pricing starts at 5.95 euros per month for two CPU cores, 1 GB of RAM and 20 GB of storage.

Public website
Why this matters
Public DNS routes website visits through Cloudflare. Visitor IP addresses and request metadata can reach this non-European provider; this does not identify the core service's data location.
