At Coursebox, we take hosting and security seriously. Our infrastructure is designed to protect your data, provide reliable performance, and meet compliance needs for organisations of all sizes.
Default Hosting — OVH France
By default, every Coursebox portal is securely hosted on OVH France, a leading European cloud provider.
Why OVH France?
Security first: ISO/IEC 27001 certified data centres.
Compliance: Meets GDPR and EU data protection regulations.
Reliability: Redundant infrastructure and daily backups (14 days by default).
Performance: Optimised servers for high availability and scalable learning delivery.
This setup ensures a strong, compliant foundation for your learning platform.
Add-On Hosting for Business & Enterprise Clients
We understand that some organisations have specific hosting policies or geographic requirements. That’s why Business and Enterprise clients can choose Google Cloud hosting as an add-on, outside of France.
Benefits of Google Cloud hosting:
Regional flexibility — select hosting closer to your learners or business HQ.
Enterprise security — leverage Google’s advanced cloud infrastructure.
Scalability — elastic resources for large deployments and rapid growth.
Integration — align hosting with existing enterprise Google Cloud setups.
Which Option Should You Choose?
OVH France (included): Best for organisations seeking GDPR compliance and reliable performance out of the box.
Google Cloud (add-on): Recommended for larger organisations or enterprises needing hosting in other global regions, or those with strict IT/security requirements.
