Our Data Protection Principles

We've built Capacities around six core principles that ensure your data remains secure, private, and under your control:

  • 1. 🔒 Security by Design: Your data is protected through multiple layers of security, from encrypted storage to secure transmission protocols.
  • 2. 🎯 Data Minimization: We only collect and process the minimum data necessary to provide our services.
  • 3. 👤 Your Data, Your Control: You maintain full ownership and control over your data at all times.
  • 4. 🚫 No Data Monetization: We never sell your data or use it for advertising purposes.
  • 5. 🌍 Global Privacy Standards: All users receive the same high level of privacy protection, regardless of location.
  • 6. 📖 Complete Transparency: We're open about our practices and regularly update our policies.

We write in detail about these principles and the underlying security architecture in our data protection memo.
