Round-trip times from Bucharest
Estimated from cable and peering geography. We run no probe fleet, so none of these has been timed end to end — treat them as an order of magnitude and measure from your own vantage point.
Our assessment of Romania
The legal analysis for Romania is published once, in the Jurisdiction Matrix, alongside the other eight regions and the method behind the ratings — so there is one version to correct rather than two that drift apart. Read the Romania assessment.
What a copyright complaint does here
It is acknowledged inside 24 hours, logged, and forwarded to you. Nothing is removed and no instance is suspended on the complaint itself. In Romania a removal follows from these, and only these:
- a report under Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 substantiated well enough to be actionable — we assess it, you are told what arrived, and anything we do comes with a statement of reasons and a route to appeal
- an order from a court in Romania
A notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512 is not on that list. That section conditions a United States liability shield we do not hold — no US entity, infrastructure, bank account or assets — and it carries no extraterritoriality provision. The copyright policy sets out the rest of the procedure, including what we tell a complainant and what we do not.
Pricing in this region
The regional factor is ×0.90, applied to the whole configuration. Transit is cheap here, so the saving goes to you rather than into our margin. The table below applies it to every plan, and the configurator applies it to custom builds the same way.
Every plan, at the Bucharest factor
What each plan costs once the ×0.90 Bucharest factor is applied. Specifications, included features and the configurator are on the plans page — they are identical in every region, so only the price is worth restating here.

Data retention: Struck down as unconstitutional (Decisions 1258/2009, 440/2014). Content takedown: Substantiated Art. 16 DSA report, or a Romanian court order. Romania is inside EU jurisdiction, so the Digital Services Act applies, and is not part of the Five, Nine or Fourteen Eyes intelligence-sharing arrangements. Mutual legal assistance is moderate here. The full assessment, with the method behind those ratings, is published on the Jurisdiction Matrix.
