Why trust PrivaSphere?



Users considering to use this service rightfully ask: "Why yet another service for privacy and why should we trust them in particular?"

Some arguments why:

  • Privacy By Design: PrivaSphere's services are designed to maximize your privacy. Whenever there is as design choice between a privacy enhancing and a privacy reducing way to implement something, we will choose the enhancing one. Yes, there is sometimes, but less then generally claimed, a significant privacy - convenience trade-off. Our services offer you several options along this continuum - have a look at to choose the right combination of convenience and privacy in an informed way. For example whenever we can avoid taking a secret or potentially personal information from you our systems, we will.
    For example in the area of payment, we will offer you means to pay us that will not require your credit card number in our databases.

    As another example, we will never send you password in an e-mail that is not encrypted!

  • External Review: PrivaSphere plans to have a board of external reviewers to review its processes and practices. This will especially also include the non-open-source part of its code. Please nominate members to this board to _mailtoInfo.
    If a big 4 or similarly established reviewing organization offers to review PrivaSphere "pro bono", we are ready to discuss.
  • Transparency: PrivaSphere opens its statutes, governance structure otherwise, and its executives' other interests to the public. This avoids surprises.
  • Separation of powers and interests: Other institutions have many interests and revenue sources. In such a picture privacy is a side issue. If they glitch on privacy issues, most likely it will not be fatal to their existence - therefore there is a higher risk that
    • negligence occurs
    • conflicts of interests may be decided against privacy - such as foregoing revenues from sale of customer information
    Therefore, it may be advisable to have one institution supporting you at keeping control about your personal and sensitive information while others provide you with the largest choice of books, most accurate medical information, most up-to-date stock quotes, etc.
  • Exclusive Mission Privacy - Focus: PrivaSphere's sole focus is providing practical solutions to enhance your privacy on-line. Spending all our work on this hopefully will eventually enable us to offer a more professional service level than others who have many other businesses to worry about as well.
  • Limit Exposure: PrivaSphere will offer services that will mediate between you and other online institutions you may want to interact with. It may well be reasonable to concentrate the required personal information for your transaction in one single place and limit the possibility of negligence or mal intent to one institution with only a few carefully chosen members instead of having your sensitive information ending up on the hard disk of each "Mom-and-Pap online store" you shop at.
  • Standards: In implementing its services, PrivaSphere's preference is for software that follows the open source definition and that implements standards. This way, peer review is facilitated and the algorithms used to ensure security are under broadest scrutiny.
    We also have a bias for de-facto standards wherever no tailor-made functionality is needed for two reasons:
    • More bugs will be found overall, but less remain uncovered, thus the overall application is likely to be the most secure and robust available on the market.
    • Over time, most used applications also tend to end up with the biggest and best functionality.
