You can't encrypt the filesystem in OpenVZ as far as I know, at least not with a standard setup as it isn't supported in the kernel. You can encrypt files though.
If you are purchasing a VPS, you are trusting the owner of the server with your data. As by design, they have complete control over the hardware and host operating system. For many situations this is not an issue, businesses looking to setup VM's for employees for one example. VPS as a service came about as a low cost solution to dedicated servers for people who need to run their own OS/software. Of course, if you are root on the host OS, you should have control over everything. If you want filesystem encryption then you should be going with KVM. If you don't want someone to be able to delete your files, then you need a dedicated server.
