Is it okay to host a website that contain ads on netcup VPS

  • Hi,

    I just registered an account on Netcup and noticed a notification after registration about collecting personnel data and I got confused.

    Is that related to ads on websites? or not?

    Is it allowed to host websites that contain Ads like Admetrics pro ads (banner and video ads)?

    Regards,

  • First of all: I am not a lawyer, and the following information is only my personal opinion or knowledge of how I interpret the various rights. All information without guarantee.

    In general, you must observe the General Terms and Conditions of netcup itself, the law of the country in which the server is located, and the law of the country for which target groups the website was created.

    According to netcup, cryptomining, for example, is prohibited. If you are concerned with advertising and the associated collection of user data, e.g. to display targeted advertising, you must comply with the GDPR (for Germany/Europe) - but in principle you are of course allowed to place advertising on your websites.

    Or have I misunderstood your question?

  • You understand it right.

    I'm thinking about taking a VPS from netcup in the US and my website has ads and it has visitors from around the world.

    I asked the question because I saw a notice after logging to the dashboard that says about collecting users data.

    That's why I asked before transferring my website to netcup.

    Regards,

  • Ah, now I know exactly what you mean. Sorry, it's been a while for me.

    In Germany, thanks to the aforementioned GDPR, you need a so-called “AV contract” with the provider (in this case netcup) if you process personal data on behalf of someone else.
