DOCTRINE.001 · Principles

The doctrine.
Non-negotiable.

Hosting is a position, not just a product. No identity collection, minimal logs, jurisdiction by design — the principles the bastion is run on.

What we hold No KYC Crypto-only Minimal logs Jurisdiction by design Warrant canary Full root
The tenets

Six lines. No fine print.

Not a values page written for investors — the actual rules the network is operated by, in plain language.

01

No identity collection

An email and a payment method — no documents, no phone number, no selfie, no proof of address. There is nothing to leak because we never collected it.

02

Payment is not identity

Crypto-native by choice. Twelve coins, settled on-chain. How you pay is your business — not a profile we assemble behind your back.

03

We log only what we must

Operational logs are kept minimal and short-lived. We do not retain what we do not need to run the network and shut down abuse.

04

Jurisdiction is a feature

Four Nordic bastions across four legal regimes. You choose where a workload lives — jurisdiction is a setting you pick, not an accident of geography.

05

Transparency or nothing

A published policy, a warrant canary kept current, and no silent changes. If something material shifts, it shifts in the open.

06

Your infrastructure stays yours

Full root, no lock-in, clean export. The server is yours to run, move or tear down — on your terms and on your schedule.

Commitments · In writing

What we will. What we won't.

A doctrine is only worth the things it rules out. Both columns are binding.

We will
  • Publish a warrant canary and keep it current
  • Announce policy changes in the open, before they take effect
  • Keep data collection to the strict operational minimum
  • Let you export your data and leave cleanly, any time
  • Push back on overbroad requests on principle
We won't
  • Ask for your identity to sell you a server
  • Build a profile out of how you choose to pay
  • Retain logs we have no operational need for
  • Lock your data behind our platform
  • Make a quiet change and hope you do not notice
FAQ

Doctrine questions, answered.

Still unsure? The garrison is on watch 24/7 — reach support and a human answers.

Is "KYC-free" just marketing?

No — it is structural. The signup form asks for an email and a payment method and stores nothing else. There is no identity field to fill in later, and no team that could look one up.

What logs do you actually keep?

Operational logs needed to run the network, bill correctly and stop abuse — kept minimal and short-lived. We do not keep browsing-style records of what you do on your server.

What is a warrant canary?

A public statement, refreshed on a schedule, affirming we have not been served with secret legal demands. If it stops being updated, draw your own conclusions — that is the point.

Can you be compelled to hand over my data?

Any provider can receive lawful requests. Our answer is to hold as little as possible in the first place and to let you pick the jurisdiction your workload sits in — so there is little to give and the rules are ones you chose.

What happens to my data if I leave?

You export it on your terms, then it is destroyed. No lock-in, no hostage data, no "contact sales to cancel".

Does KYC-free mean anything goes?

No. Privacy is not a shield for harming others — the Acceptable Use terms still apply, and we act on genuine abuse. KYC-free is about not surveilling lawful customers, not about ignoring attacks launched from the network.
