Transparency is key at ErkmenHost. As a UK-based provider hosting data across Europe (France & Poland), we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains how we use cookies not just to track, but to secure your VPS, Dedicated Servers, and Hosting accounts.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. At ErkmenHost, we use them to keep your DirectAdmin and WISECP sessions secure, remember your currency preferences, and ensure our server infrastructure performs optimally.
Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Essential & Security
These are non-negotiable. They enable you to log in to your client area, manage your VPS/Dedicated servers, and process payments securely. They also help us detect irregular traffic (DDoS attempts) and prevent fraud.
Performance & Analytics
We use these to understand traffic loads on our infrastructure. For example, knowing which regions our visitors come from helps us decide where to deploy our next OVH servers (e.g., expanding from Poland/France to new locations).
Functionality
These remember your choices, such as language settings or keeping you logged into the billing panel so you don't have to re-enter credentials constantly while managing your services.
Marketing (Optional)
We may use these to show you relevant offers (like a discount on Windows VPS renewal) based on your browsing history on our site. You can opt-out of these at any time.
Managing Your Preferences
Under UK GDPR and PECR, you have the right to decide. You can block cookies via your browser settings. However, please note that blocking Essential Cookies will prevent you from logging into the Client Area or managing your hosting services, as the system cannot verify your session identity without them.
