French to English

Internet, e-Commerce
From a video-clip:
Immediately after explaining the wonders of SSL certificates, the person goes on to ask:
« Alors et vous? On vous héberge chez XXXX?»
[where XXXX is the web hosting company]
I get what's he's saying but can't think of a nice, concise way of rendering this in En.

Are you hosted at XXXX?
as simple as this

Is XXXX your web host?
It's as simple as that...there are of course several different and accurate ways of saying it!

No, it doesn't. It's just another way of expressing the sentence, albeit, somewhat more precisely. Actually, asking who is your web host is more usual than saying I'm hosted by XXX company.

: only if one were talking about providing accommodation for real people; I'm sure the context is to do with web sites, which are much less demanding on bed linen!
