Privacy & no-KYC

Which countries are in the Five, Nine and Fourteen Eyes?

Short answer

Five Eyes: the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Nine Eyes adds Denmark, France, the Netherlands and Norway. Fourteen Eyes adds Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain and Sweden. These alliances share signals intelligence, which is why privacy-oriented hosting tends to avoid all fourteen.

Membership is a legitimate signal but not a complete analysis. It concerns intelligence sharing, not ordinary criminal or civil process — a non-member country can still have aggressive domestic data-retention law, and a member can have strong judicial oversight.

We publish alliance membership on every location page because it is the single most-asked jurisdiction question in this market, and because it is a public, verifiable fact rather than a marketing claim.
