I'm a happy customer there.

  • 1TB for 5€ is cheaper than others (e.g., Apple 200GB for 3€)
  • hosted in Germany
  • it is a NextCloud instance which means apps for all kinds of OSs are available
  • you can install NextCloud apps for more than just storage

Privacy laws are poor in Europe in general. Companies are required to facilitate the access of data for governments. The only way to prevent this is to encrypt all data before upload and use a VPN for all access to the cloud to avoid a potential raid at your home. Users will be quick to argue "well if you've got nothing to hide you've got nothing to fear!" I have never found that a compelling argument.
