Legal posture

This is a US location and full DMCA safe-harbour procedure applies, including takedowns. We say this plainly because choosing the wrong jurisdiction is the most expensive mistake a customer can make.

This location is not offshore
The United States is subject to full DMCA safe-harbour procedure, including takedowns. It is here for latency, not for jurisdiction. If legal distance is why you are shopping, a US notice compels nothing in Iceland, Moldova, Panama or Seychelles, and our 3 EU sites (the Netherlands, Romania and Bulgaria) weigh a substantiated complaint under the Digital Services Act instead of acting on a US letter.

Questions

United States VPS FAQ

How much does a VPS in United States cost?

A Kansas City VPS starts at $2.76 per month for 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 25 GB NVMe and 2 TB of transfer. The Standard configuration — 3 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 90 GB NVMe — is $8.46 per month. United States carries a price index of ×0.95 against our Amsterdam baseline, reflecting real differences in transit and facility cost.

A rights holder emails us about your Kansas City server. What happens?

Differently from every other site on this list, and you should know that before you order rather than after.

The United States is where the Digital Millennium Copyright Act actually applies, so what compels us here is a notification meeting 17 U.S.C. s.512(c)(3), with no court involved at any point. We run the statutory procedure — takedown, counter-notice, the clock — because the safe harbour this site depends on is conditional on running it. Kansas City is here for latency to North America. If legal distance is what you came for, Iceland, Moldova, Panama or Seychelles are where to look.

Do I need ID to buy a VPS in United States?

No. NimbusVPS applies the same policy in every location: no identity document, no phone number, no proof of address and no payment card. An email address and a cryptocurrency payment are all that is required, and United States imposes no additional customer-identification obligation on hosting providers.

What is the latency to Kansas City?

Typical round-trip times from Chicago 12 ms, Dallas 14 ms, New York 28 ms, Los Angeles 41 ms. The site runs on a 100 Gbps uplink at Wholesale Data Center KC1, a Tier III facility. The address printed in the latency panel above is a documentation example, not something you can ping yet; the panel says so and explains when the live target goes up.

What data retention law applies in United States?

No general US mandate tells a hosting provider to log its customers. What US law does have is preservation: under 18 U.S.C. s.2703(f) a provider can be required to preserve records it already has for 90 days, renewable once, pending legal process. Logs we never wrote are not preserved by that, and access logs here are kept for 0 days like everywhere else. Independently of local law, NimbusVPS operates 0-day access log retention — logs are not kept — and holds no identity data to retain in the first place.
