CanHost Inc.

Secure and High-Availability Data Storage, Hosting and Consulting Services

At CanHost, we believe hosting should come with more than just uptime guarantees and flashy dashboards — it should come with integrity. Proudly Canadian and fiercely independent, we’ve been helping people and businesses stay online (and stay private) for over 25 years. As a CIRA-accredited registrar, we offer trusted domain services, but that’s just the beginning. From corporate-grade encrypted remote backups and high-performance VPS and dedicated servers, to our new C3S object storage service — designed for compliance, control, and Canadian data residency — we’re here to keep your infrastructure secure, scalable, and 100% on home soil. Whether you’re running a small site or a serious operation, you can count on CanHost for reliable service, honest support, and a deep respect for your digital privacy.

Canadian Content

Unbeknownst to their customers, a startling number of Canadian hosting firms and ISPs have outsourced or sold their web hosting clients to US and foreign companies. Outsourcing mail services, data backups, and/or extra product offers without disclosure is another worrying development in the sector. We are obligated and compliant with the Federal and Provincial Privacy Acts as a Canadian company that gathers personal data from Canadian residents.

The gathering and use of data outside of Canada frequently violates Canadian privacy laws. An illustration of this is how the American Patriot Act hinders our capacity to determine whether a third party has accessed our personal data, particularly when dealing with US-affiliated (or controlled) businesses that conduct business within Canadian borders. The best course of action for us is to encourage critical thinking in our communities and support continuous data privacy education.
