Under the EU Data Act (Regulation (EU) 2023/2854), you have the right to access your data at any time and export it in a commonly used, machine-readable format. The regulation has been directly applicable in all EU member states since September 12, 2025.
This article explains what data is generated and stored at Raidboxes and within our add-ons, where you can access it, how to export it, and which data cannot be exported. If a particular data category does not have a dedicated export function, you can copy the information directly from the interface or save it as a PDF using your browser's print function.
Overview of all data categories
1. Account information
Examples: Customer number, email address, name, billing address
Access: Dashboard
Export: View in the Dashboard, copy and paste, or print to PDF
2. Users and permissions

Let's Encrypt certificates are automatically issued for your Box and cannot be transferred. Your new hosting provider can issue a new certificate free of charge.
8. Web server configuration

In addition to exporting a complete database dump, WordPress provides its own built-in export tool. This tool exports your content as an XML file in WXR format, which can be imported into any WordPress installation.
This method is more platform-independent than an SQL dump and is particularly useful if you only want to transfer your content rather than migrate your entire WordPress installation.
Access: WordPress admin area → Tools → Export (WordPress import and export tutorial)
Export: XML file (WXR), including either all content or selected content types
WooCommerce: Products and orders can also be exported using WooCommerce's CSV export functions under Products → Export or through the orders overview.
Note: WXR exports do not include themes, plugins, or original media files. These are included in your backups and can also be downloaded via SFTP.
12. Backups
Examples: Complete website, including files and database

30. Microsoft 365
Examples: Exchange Online mailboxes, calendars and contacts, files stored in OneDrive and SharePoint, Teams content, user information, and license data
You can purchase Microsoft 365 licenses through Raidboxes. However, the actual content is stored by Microsoft, not by Raidboxes.
Access: New Dashboard → Subscriptions → Third-party Providers → Manage Microsoft 365. From there, you can access the Microsoft Admin Center.
Export: The easiest way to export emails, calendars, and contacts is through Outlook as a PST file. You can download files from OneDrive and SharePoint directly through their web interfaces or synchronize them to your computer using the sync client. User and license information can be viewed and exported as CSV files in the Microsoft Admin Center.
Note: You can find your license and billing information at Raidboxes. Microsoft provides the export functions for the actual content.

34. AI Site Assistant
Examples: Generated content and layouts, prompts and inputs entered into the assistant
Access: AI Site Assistant in the Dashboard

Access: Partner section in the Dashboard

You can export your entire website and migrate it to another hosting provider at any time. Follow these steps:
Download a backup from your Dashboard.
Additionally, download your files via SFTP if you need a specific version of your website.
Export your database as an SQL dump (already included in your backup).
If you're moving to a different WordPress installation, you can also export your content as a WXR file using the WordPress export tool.
Back up your staging environments separately.
Download your email mailboxes via IMAP and export your calendars and contacts separately.
Request authorization codes for your domains (the domain contracts must be canceled first) and provide them to your new registrar.

Export your legal documents from iubenda if you use the Compliance add-on.

Data that cannot be exported
Certain types of data cannot be exported because they relate exclusively to our infrastructure, are security-sensitive, or do not contain customer-specific information. These include:
Internal monitoring and alerting systems
Cluster and infrastructure metrics
Internal audit logs
NGINX and system configuration of the managed hosting environment
Security Shield detection rules and signatures
Cached content and CDN caches, as these can be regenerated at any time
Optimized image variants generated by Performance+, as these can be recreated from your original files
Automatically issued Let's Encrypt certificates, as they are tied to your Box and can be reissued free of charge by your new hosting provider
Data export costs
Exporting your data using the methods described above is free of charge.
Additional services that go beyond the switching assistance required by law may be subject to a fee. Currently, this applies to the automated mailbox migration service provided through our partner Audriga.
You can still export your emails independently via IMAP at any time, free of charge.
