Paranoid Hosting (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting any personal information we may collect through our website, services, or on behalf of our customers. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information, particularly as it relates to our web hosting, email delivery, and maintenance services.
Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information:
- Personal Information: Names, email addresses, phone numbers, or billing information when voluntarily provided by customers.
- Technical Data: IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, referral URLs, and other technical information used for analytics and diagnostics.
- Cookies and Tracking: We may use cookies for functional and analytics purposes. You can disable cookies in your browser settings.

How We Use Information
We use collected data to:
- Provide hosting and maintenance services
- Respond to support inquiries
- Monitor and maintain server performance and security
- Communicate with customers about their services
- Deliver email campaigns on behalf of our clients (see below)
Email Campaigns
Paranoid Hosting provides email delivery services for a small number of our hosting clients. We do not operate a bulk email marketing platform, and we do not send unsolicited messages. Our email practices include:
- We only send emails on behalf of customers we have an active business relationship with.
- All campaigns are relational or transactional—not spam or cold outreach.
- Our customers confirm that all recipients have an existing relationship with them.
- We do not use or allow purchased, scraped, or third-party email lists.
- Each email includes proper identification and, where applicable, unsubscribe options.
- Delivery activity is logged to monitor for abuse and troubleshoot delivery issues.
If you believe you’ve received an email in error or wish to report abuse, contact us at [email protected]. We take abuse complaints seriously and investigate all valid reports.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your data. Information may be shared only in the following situations:
- With third-party vendors who help us provide services (e.g., email delivery, analytics)
- If required by law or legal process
- To prevent fraud or abuse of our services
All third-party partners are expected to follow appropriate privacy and data protection standards.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Email sending logs are retained temporarily to monitor delivery and abuse.
Security
We take reasonable precautions to protect your data, using both technical and administrative safeguards to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Request a copy of your personal data
- Ask that your data be corrected or deleted
- Inquire about how your data is used
To exercise these rights, email us at [email protected].
