Privacy-first managed DNS with EU-only nameservers in Frankfurt, Nürnberg, Vienna, and Helsinki. No query logging, renewable energy, DNSSEC, and GeoDNS.
Privacy-focused managed DNS service hosted exclusively in the EU with renewable energy, no query logging, DDoS protection, and instant record changes.
Nanelo DNS is a German managed DNS service operating exclusively on European nameservers in Frankfurt, Nürnberg, Vienna, and Helsinki, all powered by renewable energy. Built as a privacy-first alternative to Cloudflare DNS and Amazon Route 53, Nanelo keeps every query inside the EU with no query logging.
The service targets teams that need production-grade DNS (GeoDNS, failover, DNSSEC, DDoS protection) without the data residency and privacy compromises of US-operated nameservers.
Key features:

- Four EU locations in Frankfurt, Nürnberg, Vienna, and Helsinki, all on renewable energy
- GeoDNS for geographic traffic routing and latency optimisation
- Round-robin and failover for intelligent traffic distribution
- DNSSEC support with signed zones and chain-of-trust validation
- HTTPS redirects with free SSL certificates
- Full record type support covering A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, ALIAS, TXT, SRV, CAA, PTR, and NS
- Team collaboration with SSO, audit logs, and granular permissions
- DDoS protection on every nameserver
- 7-day free trial, no credit card required
Pricing: Starter €4.99/mo (5 domains), Growth €9.99/mo, Professional €15.99/mo (25 domains), with custom Enterprise pricing and agency plans. A clean EU alternative to Cloudflare DNS, Route 53, and Google DNS for privacy-conscious teams.
