# Backups & one-click restore

> Restore points, "Back up now", downloads — and how to undo a bad day.

Source: https://veldhost.eu/docs/backups-and-restore

Every site has a **Restore points** section on the Files tab. Each restore point is a complete snapshot: all your files plus a full database dump.

## Taking backups

- **Back up now (free)** — one click, any time, before anything risky.
- **Daily backups (€4/mo)** — automatic nightly snapshot, kept for 30 days.
- **Automatic safety snapshots** — before every restore (and before deploy migrations) we snapshot the current state, free.

Every restore point is also replicated overnight to storage in a **second region**, physically separate from the servers that run your site — so backups survive even a serious infrastructure incident.

## Restoring

1. Pick a restore point → **Restore** → confirm.
2. We first snapshot the current state (so you can undo the undo), then roll your files and database back. Usually under a minute.

## Downloading

**Download** gives you the full archive — your files plus `db/mysql.sql` (or `pg.sql`). It's your data; take it whenever you like.
