With our advance server technology and innovative ideas, We could provide you with the level of reliability and the support that non of the hosting companies have ever done before. Other companies could promise you you anything on earth, but we are the one that keeps our promises and truely delivers it to you.

All of our host servers comes with Intel Duel Xeon 3.0 GHZ cpu, and is equipped with 2-8GB of memories. Each one of our server used for Reseller Plans are further divided into virtual private servers using state of art openvz technologies.

Each Virtual Private Server has it’s own share of CPU, it’s own shares of memories, and they could perform reboots and upgrades on their own without affecting other VPSes on the Same physical Server. Even if one of the VPS on the server went down, it would not affect the other VPS’s on the same server.

Yes, ICANN gave the central registries permission for annual price rises some time ago, so on Oct 14th all the domain prices went up at least 50c

There’s been a *lot* of announcements about it by every registrar …

What are the issues with Data Protection and hosting in the US?

Is it illegal as they say to host UK or European data in the US?

I assume that this is the UK data protection act you’re talking about? If so, it applies to personal information that can be used to identify somebody.

As far as I understand the DPA, you have to have permission from people to store their personal data abroad, or to list the USA in the list of countries when you register with the information commissioner. You also have to ensure that it is “adequately protected”.

However, I have heard that the USA doesn’t have DP laws that are in line with the UK/EU ones, so that may complicate the issue. I know of some companies who do store personal data on US servers though, and they are doing it legally, or at least appear to be.

I’m afraid I can’t help with the finer points. I’ve been looking into it myself recently - I have a database of user details that I need to make available to all other users, and although I think I might be exempt from registering, I can’t be sure - the site’s legalese is a little hard to interpret.

http://www.ico.gov.uk has more info for you, and has some phone numbers about registering that might help - although I haven’t got round to ringing them yet. If anyone else has some friendlier URLs or experience in these matters, please help.

Does anyone know of any good quality hosts providing both php 5.0.5 and mysql - 4.1.21 ?
These are 2 of the specifications my developer has requested….the 2 that I am having difficulty finding!

Many Thanks

pcs - never heard of them, looks like the run-of-the-mill poundhost dedi customer, kind of confirmed by

dont get me started on the “our network” cr@p …

voo - similarly hosted with poundhost, established longer, regluars to various forus and are honest on their network details
VooServers operates all of it’s services from the Blue Square Data facility in Maidenhead just off the M4. We are located on a full BGP4 network operated by Poundhost

If you’re looking for hosting on the PH network @ BSq Voo would be a clear winner of the two for me.
