Does SiteGround enable HIPAA compliance?

SiteGround's website does not state that it is HIPAA compliant.

In its terms of service, SiteGround has stated in a HIPAA disclaimer section that customers are prohibited from using its services to store PHI.

Covered entities that need web hosting services should choose a provider that offers digital and physical HIPAA-compliant safeguards. While most hosting providers provide HTTPS protocol and SSL certification for security, these features alone aren’t sufficient to meet HIPAA requirements. For a hosting account to be HIPAA compliant, it must include physical safeguards to protect equipment and servers. Audit controls and access controls are other digital security features that help with HIPAA compliance.
