VPS, Virtual Private Server advice


I'm running Centos 8, server, and need a private virtual server to simple web hosting for individual training so spend some hours to find a free one, for couple of day. Digital Ocean, Azure and Google they either require credit card info or telephone and address confirmation. Have been through reddit as well but no advice. Could anyone give any advice for a good free one, being able to register without any private info ? There are also so,e older post in here, but much older to be used or has become absolute, literally from 2005.

I’d have serious doubts about using any VPS where the provider didn’t collect some information about you. Certainly, wanting payment is reasonable, but even if providing a free service, the provider would want contact information to protect themselves from any liability.
