Privacy Policy & Terms

Transparent guidelines on your data, platform terms and affiliate disclosures. Last updated: November 3, 2026.

At ServerSavings (serversavings.com), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any information that may identify you.

This Privacy Policy outlines how ServerSavings collects, uses, and safeguards information when you visit our website, submit inquiries, or browse hosting promotions.

1. Information We Collect

We believe in data minimization. We only collect the minimal information necessary to secure and improve our platform:

  • Contact Inquiries: When you send a message through our Contact Us page, we collect your name, email address, subject, message body, the timestamp, and your originating IP address and browser User-Agent to prevent bot abuse.
  • Network & Security Logs: Our infrastructure operates behind Cloudflare. Cloudflare automatically processes connection metadata (such as IP addresses, country codes, and request headers) to detect and block malicious distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) traffic and automated scrapers.
  • Anonymous Web Analytics: We use GoatCounter for analytics. GoatCounter is a privacy-first web statistics tool that does not track you across other websites, does not store persistent cookies on your device, and does not harvest personally identifiable information (PII).

2. Cookies & External Tracking

ServerSavings itself does not use intrusive tracking cookies, third-party advertising retargeting pixels (such as Facebook Pixel), or data-broker trackers.

However, when you click an external link to a third-party hosting company (e.g., RackNerd, Hostinger, etc.), that provider or their affiliate tracking platform may deposit a cookie in your browser to attribute the referral to ServerSavings. These cookies are subject to the respective external provider's privacy policy.

3. How We Use Your Data

The information we collect is strictly used for:

  • Responding directly to your support, partnership, or feedback submissions.
  • Enforcing automated rate limiting on our contact form (maximum 3 inquiries per hour per IP) to preserve server uptime.
  • Analyzing overall traffic trends (e.g., most viewed VPS locations or blog articles) to curate better deals.
  • Preventing malicious attacks, brute-force exploits, and security anomalies.

4. Sharing & Disclosure of Information

We do not sell, rent, trade, or monetize your personal information to third parties. We will only disclose your information if required to do so by applicable law, regulatory authority, or subpoena, or to protect the safety, security, and integrity of ServerSavings and its users.

5. Third-Party Websites & Affiliate Links

ServerSavings functions as a curation and comparison platform. We contain outbound links to external websites. We have no ownership, control, or responsibility for the privacy practices, content, or data collection mechanisms of any third-party company. When leaving ServerSavings, we encourage you to review their individual privacy statements.

6. Data Security

We use industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer / Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) encryption to protect data transmitted between your device and our server. While we follow strict engineering practices, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% impenetrable.

7. Your Data Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (such as GDPR in Europe or CCPA in California), you have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to request deletion of any contact messages you have sent to us. To exercise any of these rights, please get in touch via our Contact Form.
