I wouldn't use a VC-backed, for-profit company for anything privacy related. Selling users out behind the scenes to advertisers and TLA's is an easy way to get money. Better to get hosting in a jurisdiction without police-state-style activities, with privacy protections, and/or from a nonprofit or public-benefit organization incentivized to look after users. A for-profit, non-VC company with long history of steady, honest business is also a decent option if you can't find/afford/use safer jurisdictions. Prgmr.com is an example of the last one from what I've observed.
