Jurisdictional compliance meets exceptional security, availability, and performance with F12’s boutique private cloud services.
Canada's Sovereign Cloud

There's No Place Like Home
Data residency isn’t what it once was. New legislation like the CLOUD act means international cloud providers must violate local sovereignty. However, F12’s Sovereign Cloud is wholly Canadian-owned and operated. Therefore, it is under the sole jurisdiction of Canada.
