Unless you're sending all your traffic back to physical machines that you own locked into a cage in a datacenter, you are probably letting someone MITM your SSL traffic. For example if you are hosting on AWS, Amazon has access to your keys. If you are hosting on a hardware server leased from Hetzner, Hetzner has access to your keys.

When a 3rd party has access to your keys, their responsibilities to you are spelled out in your contract with them. That's true for CDNs as well as hosting companies.
