{% image-content-section title="Canadian infrastructure by default" src="dashboard-server-detail-active-zoom-card" width=1248 height=1020 %}

Dedicated VMs on LunaNode, a privately owned Canadian provider with data centers in Toronto. Each customer gets isolated infrastructure with their own Coolify instance, not shared containers on someone else's cluster.

{% /image-content-section %}

{% callout title="The problem with US platforms" %}

Heroku, Railway, Render, Vercel, Fly.io: they're all US companies running on US infrastructure. That means the **US CLOUD Act** applies.

US authorities can compel these companies to hand over data stored anywhere in the world, regardless of where your users are or what your privacy policy says.

For Canadian businesses, healthcare apps, legal tech, or any developer who cares about where their infrastructure lives, that's a problem.

MapleDeploy runs on [Coolify](/open-source-stack), an open-source deployment platform you can audit on GitHub. The infrastructure runs on a privately owned Canadian provider with documented data center locations in Toronto.

You can verify exactly what software handles your deployments, trace the ownership chain of your infrastructure provider, and document the precise physical location of your data. Whether you need that for a compliance audit or just want to know how your hosting works, it's all visible. No "trust us" required, just verifiable facts.
