BitsaboutMe is a new service that empowers you to reclaim control over your personal data, in order to better protect your privacy and to get a fair deal when sharing your personal data profile with interested companies. All it takes are 3 easy steps:
Reclaim
BitsaboutMe helps you to easily extract your data from large online companies and others and to store it safely and securely in your own Personal Data Store.
Explore
Get an overview of your personal data trail. What information is stored, by whom, what does it tell you? Get to know yourself better and make smarter decisions.
Control
Start to manage your data by setting your own rules, defining what you want to keep private and what you share and with whom.

What it’s all about
We want our users to become sovereign actors in the personal data economy and no longer be treated as “the product” by large corporations. BitsaboutMe never sells your data – in our setup it is technically impossible – we will provide a service empowering you to share it in return for remuneration, if you decide to do so. The BitsaboutMe Personal Data Store (PDS) and the associated services are free for consumers and always will be. Our long term goal is to offer you an online data marketplace where you can securely share your data while keeping full control over it. Imagine a version of eBay where instead of goods, access-rights to personal data profiles can be securely traded.
Data processors are increasingly willing to pay for access to high-quality and current data and with BitsaboutMe you now will be the one getting paid. If you successfully share your personal data profile with interested companies, then you get the proceeds and BitsaboutMe will get a commission for managing the transaction and to ensure that your data and privacy is protected throughout the process. There is no obligation to participate in the online data marketplace and share your personal data profile. You can always continue to use the PDS free of charge just for yourself without sharing anything.
