“Privacy is not something that I’m merely entitled to, it’s an absolute prerequisite.”

Marlon Brando

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower individuals in the use of their data and help them make better decisions on where to trust their data

We realize that our mission is challenging; internet users have been kept misinformed for years and the data literacy and digital gap has been growing constantly. Most people can’t keep up with the technology pace anymore and are unaware of how their data is being used; the only thing they know is that it happens and they believe the can’t do anything about it. We want to help everyone by providing easy tools too learn and understand about their data, as well as bridge the gap between technology and data privacy.

Who We Are

We are a multi-disciplinary team passionate about the social impact of data.

As with all great teams, we also have our special story. We met each other and formed our team during a Startup Weekend event in Brussels on December 2019, where we won the 2nd prize for our business idea. We decided that our idea should not die after that weekend and believed that we can make a difference with our skills and passion to do the right thing. Since then we have been working to develop our business idea and our early BETA product, as well as educating people about the importance of their data.
