Privacy Policy

Effective date: [EFFECTIVE DATE] · Last updated: [LAST UPDATED DATE]

Before you publish: replace every field marked in orange (company legal name, registration number, address, contact e-mails, dates) with your confirmed details. This draft is written for a Moldova-registered VPS hosting business and references the Moldovan Law No. 133/2011 on the protection of personal data; if you serve customers in the EU/EEA you should also confirm GDPR alignment with a lawyer.

1. Who controls your data

This Privacy Policy explains how [COMPANY LEGAL NAME, e.g. "V-Node SRL"] (IDNO [IDNO NUMBER], registered address [LEGAL ADDRESS, MOLDOVA]) ("V-Node", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit v-node.pro or use our VPS hosting and storage Services ("Services"). We act as the data controller for the personal data described below, and as a data processor for content you choose to store on your own virtual servers.

2. What personal data we collect

CategoryExamplesSource
Account data Name, e-mail address, phone (optional), password (hashed) Provided by you at registration
Billing data Billing address, VAT/tax ID, transaction history, prepaid balance Provided by you; payment processors
Payment data Card details processed by Stripe; wallet/transaction identifiers processed by NowPayments Collected directly by our payment processors — we do not receive or store full card numbers
Technical & usage data IP address, login timestamps, browser/device information, control-panel actions, support requests Automatically collected
Server-level data Resource usage metrics (CPU, RAM, bandwidth) needed for billing and abuse prevention Automatically collected from infrastructure
Communications Support tickets, chat transcripts, e-mails you send us Provided by you

We do not inspect, scan, or process the content you store or run inside your virtual private server, except where necessary to investigate a specific abuse report, to comply with a lawful order, or to protect the security of our infrastructure.

3. Why we process your data (legal basis)

4. Who we share data with

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only as needed with:

5. International data transfers

Where personal data is transferred to a country outside Moldova or the EU/EEA that does not offer an equivalent level of protection, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or the transfer mechanisms offered by our processors, to the extent required by applicable law.

6. Data retention

We retain personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period afterwards to meet accounting, tax, and legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements — typically [RETENTION PERIOD, e.g. 5 years after account closure for billing records]. Server-level content is deleted according to the retention window shown in your control panel after a VM is stopped or an account is closed.

7. Cookies and similar technologies

Our website uses cookies that are strictly necessary for login sessions and security, and, where you consent, analytics or preference cookies to understand Site usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect Site functionality.

8. Your rights

Subject to applicable law (including Moldovan Law No. 133/2011 and, where applicable, the GDPR), you have the right to:

To exercise these rights, contact us at [PRIVACY EMAIL, e.g. privacy@v-node.pro].

9. Security

We apply technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk, including encrypted connections (HTTPS/SSH), access controls, firewall management, and infrastructure isolation between customer VMs. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children's privacy

The Services are not directed at individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal data, contact us so we can delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be notified via the Site or by e-mail at least [NOTICE PERIOD, e.g. 15 days] before taking effect. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the latest revision.
