When you put your data on a third party host, you can basically kiss it goodbye -- "trusting" that host means you have to trust every single employee in it.

For the peace of mind, I'd even pay more -- but it's significantly cheaper in the long run to self host since those 'cheap shared-resource' virtual servers are always oversold.

But to each his own.

Or you encrypt your data as well as backup your data somewhere else.

Besides, on the scale we're talking here, a workload that can be handled by 3 RPI's (or a VPS), do you really have such sentivie data ?
