Romania· Cloud Computing
Needs review
Shortlist when you want a polished, proprietary self-hosted PaaS panel with Git builders, automatic HTTPS, databases, backups, and a large template catalogue on servers you control. Skip when you need a managed cloud runtime SLA, or when procurement requires an open-source control plane (consider Coolify or CapRover) or pure EU IaaS without a commercial panel (Hetzner or Scaleway alone).
Lithuania· Cloud Computing
Needs review
Shortlist Hostinger when you want managed WordPress or a simple KVM VPS with an EU data-center option and a published DPA. Skip it when you need HIPAA or PCI, an EU-only data path, or a custom enterprise SLA. Consider Hetzner or OVHcloud instead for more operator-centric European infrastructure.

Git, image, and Compose deploys with multiple builders
Connect GitHub or generic Git, upload archives, pull Docker images, or run Compose projects. Build with Dockerfile, Cloud Native Buildpacks, Nixpacks, or Railpack. Auto-deploy webhooks are available for GitHub sources. Limit: you still operate the underlying server and must keep ports 80/443 free on a typical install.
Automatic HTTPS domains and Traefik routing
Attach hostnames to services, terminate TLS, and apply proxy middlewares from the dashboard. Useful for teams that want certificate renewal and routing without hand-editing reverse-proxy files. Limit: DNS and server firewall remain your responsibility.
Managed databases plus scheduled backups
Run Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis as services beside apps. Schedule database and volume backups to local disk, FTP/SFTP, S3-compatible storage, Dropbox, or Google Drive, then restore from the UI. Limit: a local-only backup destination does not protect against full server loss.
Large one-click application template catalogue
Install maintained templates for hundreds of open-source apps (vendor states 750+) such as n8n, Supabase, WordPress, Immich, and Nextcloud, with service wiring handled by the panel. Limit: each upstream app still needs its own hardening, upgrades, and credential hygiene.
In-browser operations: metrics, logs, and shell
Monitor CPU, memory, disk, and network, stream logs, and open a container shell or saved scripts without separate SSH tooling for routine tasks. Limit: deep incident response still needs host-level access and your own observability stack for production SLAs.
Selectable European and global data centers
Web and cloud plans can be placed in France, Germany, Lithuania, the Netherlands, or the United Kingdom, or in the United States, Brazil, India, Indonesia, or Malaysia. VPS omits the Netherlands. Location is chosen at setup and can be moved later on web and cloud, but not on VPS without rebuild.
Managed WordPress on LiteSpeed and hPanel
Plans include one-click install, staging, automatic updates, malware scanning, WAF, Let's Encrypt, WP-CLI, SSH, and Git. WordPress.org lists Hostinger as a recommended host. Shared plans isolate accounts with CloudLinux LVE. Not a self-hosted WordPress appliance you run elsewhere.
KVM VPS with root, templates, and a public API
KVM guests use AMD EPYC and NVMe, weekly backups, snapshots, a managed firewall, Wanguard DDoS filtering, and one-click OS or app templates (Docker, n8n, Ubuntu, and others). A documented public API and MCP server support automation. The guest is unmanaged: you patch the OS.
Managed cloud with dedicated IP and NVMe
Cloud plans keep hPanel and add more CPU, RAM, NVMe, PHP workers, inode headroom, a dedicated IP, CDN, and daily or on-demand backups. Aimed at agencies and busier WordPress or Node.js sites that do not want root. Upgrade path from shared hosting is in-panel.
In-house hPanel, Access Manager, and migrations
hPanel is Hostinger's control plane for sites, DNS, mail, backups, and collaborators. Access Manager shares scoped access without handing over the account password. Website migration is a supported request flow for common CMS stacks. Developer tools (SSH, Git, PHP versions) live in the same panel.
Public DPA with a named sub-processor list
A click-through DPA covers hosting, VPS, email, domains, Website Builder, Horizons, and Reach. Appendix 3 lists AWS EMEA, Google Cloud EMEA, Cloudflare, MailChannels, Proofpoint, Anthropic Ireland, and spectra tech UAB. New sub-processors can be added with a 10-day objection window.
| Assurance & compliance | Easypanel | Hostinger |
|---|---|---|
| Independent security / no-logs audit | Not found No public third-party audit PDF located on primary site. | Not found Vendor describes internal pentests and a HackerOne-style responsible disclosure programme. No public independent audit PDF found. |
| ISO 27001 | Not found | Vendor claimed Trust Center and security article claim ISO/IEC 27001:2022. Certificate download requires Trust Center access. Not independently verified here. |
| SOC 2 / SOC 3 | Not found | Not found No public SOC 2 or SOC 3 report found on Trust Center overview or legal pages. |
| GDPR / EU data protection | Vendor claimed Romanian (EU) PFA entity and public Privacy Policy; confirm processing roles for your account data. | Vendor claimed EU/UK/Luxembourg contracting entities; privacy policy cites GDPR; DPA includes EU SCCs and UK addendum. Confirm entity on the invoice. |
| US CLOUD Act exposure (indicative) | Partial EU operator with no known US parent, but Lemon Squeezy (billing) and Google (website sign-in/analytics) are US-linked. Customer app data stays on the customer server unless backups are sent to US-group storage. Not legal advice. | Partial European group, no known US parent. Exposure is medium because customers may select US data centers and the DPA names US-group processors (AWS EMEA, Google Cloud EMEA, Cloudflare, Proofpoint). Not legal advice. |
| Data processing agreement (B2B) | Not found No public DPA download found on marketing/docs pages during research. | Vendor claimed Public DPA incorporated into the Terms of Service. Parties: Hostinger International Ltd, Hostinger UK Limited, or Hostinger Global S.a r.l. |
| EU AI Act | Not applicable Deployment panel, not an AI system product. | Not applicable Core product is hosting. Horizons, Kodee, and Reach are AI features inside that product, not an AI-centric system of record. |
| HIPAA / PCI environment | No indicado | Not applicable Hosting agreement: services are not intended to provide a PCI or HIPAA compliant environment. |
| Considerations & known limitations | Easypanel | Hostinger |
|---|---|---|
| Proprietary control plane | Medium You cannot fork the panel under an OSI license. Budget for license renewals and an exit plan (Compose/export) if requirements change. | No indicado |
| You operate the server | Medium Availability, OS patching, capacity, and firewall rules remain yours. This is not a managed PaaS SLA. | No indicado |
| US-linked account subprocessors | Medium Lemon Squeezy handles checkout/licenses; Google appears on the website for sign-in/analytics. App data can stay local, but identity and billing metadata do not. | No indicado |
| Backup targets can leave your host | Low Optional backup providers include S3-compatible services, Dropbox, and Google Drive. Choose EU-controlled destinations if residency of backups matters. | No indicado |
| No public independent audit package | Medium No ISO/SOC or public penetration-test report was found. Enterprise procurement may need questionnaires and contractual security exhibits. | No indicado |
| Optional non-EU hosting regions | No indicado | Medium US, Brazil, and Asia data centers are first-class options. An operator can place production outside the EEA at checkout. Lock region in procurement if residency is required. |
| US-group cloud, CDN, email, and security vendors | No indicado | Medium Even an EU VM still depends on AWS EMEA, Google Cloud EMEA, Cloudflare, Proofpoint, MailChannels, plus Google/Meta marketing tools. This is why CLOUD Act exposure is not low. |
| Cyprus contract vs Lithuanian operations | No indicado | Low HQ and affiliates are Lithuanian; EU paper is usually Hostinger International Ltd (Cyprus). Invoices may also be charged by other group entities. Confirm the contracting party before security review. |
| ISO 27001 certificate not independently verified here | No indicado | Low The cert is claimed on the Trust Center but gated. Download it before treating ISO as verified. |
| Customer still owns CMS, guest OS, and backups | No indicado | Medium VPS is unmanaged. Terms require you to keep your own backups even when Hostinger offers weekly copies. Shared and cloud plans are not HIPAA/PCI environments. |
When: You want an open-source self-hosted PaaS panel you can fork
Consider: Coolify or CapRover
Not currently separate EuropeanStack entries; evaluate licenses and multi-server features directly.
When: You want managed cloud app hosting instead of operating a VPS
Consider: DigitalOcean App Platform or AWS application hosting
Less server ops, less direct control of the host.
When: You only need EU IaaS and will run raw Docker or Kubernetes yourself
Consider: Hetzner or Scaleway
Complementary as places to install Easypanel, or alternatives if you reject a commercial panel.
When: You want German-operated dedicated servers, object storage, or more operator-centric VPS without a consumer website-builder overlay
Consider: Hetzner
Hetzner is in the catalog as German web hosting and cloud.
When: You need a large European public cloud with many regions and a stronger IaaS and public-sector posture
Consider: OVHcloud or IONOS
Both are catalog EU clouds; IONOS also covers consumer-style web hosting.
When: You need US-centric SMB WordPress hosting already familiar to North American agencies
Consider: GoDaddy or Bluehost
Different jurisdiction. Useful only if European contracting is not a filter.
