Digital Sovereignty

Your data. Your AI. In Germany — not on US servers.

Most agencies build your business on US cloud and US AI. In the end, control over your customer data does not sit with you — but with a provider subject to US law. We do it differently: your website, your automation and your AI run on servers in Germany. You stay in control.

Where does your data really run?

Four points hardly any agency talks about — because most are affected themselves.

US access despite servers in Europe

The US CLOUD Act allows US authorities to demand data from US providers — worldwide, including from data centers in Frankfurt. In 2025, Microsoft's head of France confirmed under oath before the Senate that even a »European« cloud cannot guarantee the exclusion of US access.

GDPR fines in the billions

Cumulative GDPR fines reached around €7.1 billion by early 2026. Each violation carries fines of up to €20 million or 4 % of global annual revenue. If you do not know where your data resides, you share that risk.

EU AI Act — labelling obligation already applies

Since February 2025, AI must be recognizable as AI (transparency obligations). From August 2026, enforcement and penalties for AI models take effect — up to €35 million or 7 % of revenue. Many »ChatGPT-Wrapper« solutions do not meet the labelling requirement today.

Provider dependency (vendor lock-in)

If your website, data and AI sit with a US provider, you often cannot get out cleanly — no complete export, no migration without loss. Your most important asset, your customer data, then effectively belongs to the platform.

Sovereign by design — not a surcharge, but the standard

What comes built in with us, instead of being retrofitted at a cost.

Servers in Germany

Your website, database and automation run on servers in Germany (Hetzner) — no US hyperscaler. Your data sits under German and EU law, not under US jurisdiction.

AI labelled as AI

Every AI response we deliver for you is marked as AI — exactly as the EU AI Act requires. Delivered compliant, not repaired later.

GDPR from day one

EU servers, proper data processing agreements, clear data flows. For us, data protection is the foundation of the architecture — not a cookie-banner fig leaf.

Your data belongs to you

No lock-in: you can fully export and take your data with you at any time. The tool is replaceable — your customer relationship remains yours.
