Privacy Policy & GDPR

Last updated: November 10th 2022

Webdock is not evil and we respect your privacy. Webdock is GDPR compliant and provides supporting documents for further insight into our Data Protection practices. Please see our Privacy Impact Assessment, Third Party Information Sharing and Transparency Report pages in addition to this Privacy Policy. Webdock has a Data Protection Agreement available which you can generate/obtain in your Account Area once signed up. In the DPA you can also find contact information for our Data Protection Officer. You can even generate an example DPA for use between you and your clients in case you are reselling our products.

User data

Webdock collects and stores personal information, including the full name, company name and VAT ID (if applicable), billing address, email address, and source IP address for all customers. Credit card number and expiration date are stored with a 3rd party (Stripe) and Webdock has no knowledge of your credit card information. We use your personal data to deliver our contractual services to you. Inquiries regarding the collection and use of personal information may be made via email to info@webdock.io.

  • Request that we delete your personal data in accordance with GDPR

You have the access to self serve updating your personal data yourself through your online account.

You can request account closure yourself through your online account, this will delete all data we
store about you other than data that must be kept for legal reasons.

If you have any concerns about your rights or have any questions around this please contact us at
info@webdock.io

No soft deletion

We do not believe in soft deletion. Once you delete a server or account, all data we have stored will be nuked from orbit. 

  • You cannot restore a server once it is deleted as all snapshots we might have had are deleted as soon as the server itself is deleted. 
  • You have about 3 weeks to revive a deleted account.

After which all knowledge we have ever had of you or your servers will be, for better or worse, gone. Account restoration will only be completed against a one-time fee of Euro 250,-. This is not a "fuck you" sort of fee, we actually do need to spend time pulling out data from database backups and manually inject your data back into our live environment. In this case, it would be much easier to just sign up anew.

There will be some anonymous junk in our Google Analytics logs and other such tracking tools for marketing purposes which will not be deleted, as the material is to the best of our knowledge anonymised and therefore harmless.

Please remember we are not a safe haven for criminal behavior, and will report any illegal material found, and cooperate fully with law enforcement to the same extent as any other hosting provider would.

Unmanaged Service

Customers bear sole responsibility for maintaining the security of virtual private server (VPS) environments maintained under their accounts. Customers are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with any and all applicable privacy guidelines and regulations for all jurisdictions in which they may operate with respect to appropriate practices for the collection, storage, and dissemination of personal information using their Webdock server. In no event shall Webdock be held liable for a customer's failure to adopt and/or practice appropriate measures for safeguarding personal information stored within or transmitted through their Webdock server.

Security and Data Integrity

Customer information is stored in electronic databases. Webdock employs industry-standard technical safeguards, including but not necessarily limited to encryption of password and/or cryptographic key-based authentication controls on servers which house personal information, browser-based SSL encryption, and other storage system access control mechanisms to protect the integrity of internal databases and prevent unauthorized access. Unless otherwise indicated by amendment to this privacy policy, in which case customers shall be notified and given the opportunity to exercise the "opt out" provisions discussed in this policy, personal information is stored only for use according to the purposes for which it was initially collected.

Third Party Disclosure

Webdock transfers personal information to third parties under the following normal business procedures:

Webdock does not disclose customer information to other third parties except where required under applicable EU laws for purposes of investigation of criminal complaints, or where required by court order. We do disclose your IP address and Name and Email to certain third parties. Please see our Third Party Information Sharing page for further details.
