Privacy

Built around
consent, not
compliance.

Privacy is not an afterthought at SafeQloud — it is the product. Everything below explains both how we approach data as a matter of principle, and what we do with it as a matter of law.

Last updated: April 2026 · Applies to safeqloud.com and all SafeQloud products

Our approach

Privacy is the foundation. Not a policy document at the bottom of the page.

We collect the minimum necessary.
SafeQloud does not collect data speculatively. Every piece of data we hold has a specific purpose, a legal basis, and a defined retention period. If we don't need it, we don't keep it.
You see everything we hold.
Your SafeQloud account gives you a complete view of your data, every active consent, and every platform that has access. Nothing is hidden. Nothing is shared without a logged record.
We are not a data business.
SafeQloud does not sell, license, or monetise personal data. The product exists to return control to individuals — that structural commitment is incompatible with a data resale model.

Important — what SafeQloud can and cannot do

We give you the tools.
We cannot guarantee
how companies use them.

The app gives you a one-tap way to send a formal deletion request to any company — logged, timestamped, and tracked in real time. What happens inside that company's systems is their legal responsibility, not ours.

What SafeQloud does
Gives you the tools to manage consent, send deletion requests, track their status, and revoke access — all from the app.
What SafeQloud cannot do
Guarantee that a company follows through. We have no access to their systems. We will not mislead you into believing otherwise.
If a company fails
They are removed from the SafeQloud network. Their users are notified. We cannot catch every violation — but we act on every one we catch.

Who we are

SafeQloud is an identity and consent platform operated as an independent institutional system. SafeQloud provides identity verification, consent management, and data protection tools to individuals, businesses, and developers across Europe, the Middle East, and North America.

For the purposes of GDPR and applicable data protection legislation, SafeQloud acts as a data controller with respect to the personal data of its account holders, and as a data processor with respect to data processed on behalf of businesses using SafeQloud's platform.

Section 03

How we use your data

  • To create and maintain your SafeQloud account and verify your identity
  • To operate the consent management platform — recording, displaying, and enforcing consent decisions
  • To process deletion requests submitted through SQ Privacy on your behalf
  • To provide customer support and respond to your enquiries
  • To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorised access
  • To comply with legal obligations, including GDPR and applicable national law
  • To improve the platform through aggregated, anonymised usage analysis

SafeQloud does not use personal data for advertising. We do not build behavioural profiles for commercial purposes. We do not sell or license personal data to third parties.

Data sharing

SafeQloud does not sell personal data. We share data only in the following circumstances:

  • With platforms you have consented to — when you grant consent to a third-party platform through SafeQloud, the specific data covered by that consent is shared. You can see exactly what is shared and revoke access at any time.
  • With Servicea — as the institutional operator of SafeQloud's client services, Servicea processes support and correspondence data on our behalf under a formal data processing agreement.
  • With infrastructure providers — hosting, security, and platform infrastructure providers who process data strictly under our instructions and under GDPR-compliant data processing agreements.
  • With legal authorities — where required by applicable law, court order, or regulatory obligation. We will notify you where legally permitted to do so.

No personal data is shared with advertisers, data brokers, or any party for commercial profiling purposes.

Section 06

Scope of SafeQloud's responsibility

SafeQloud provides individuals with tools to manage their consent and data rights, and provides businesses with the frameworks and infrastructure to obtain consent properly and process data rights requests in a structured, documented way.

SafeQloud does not and cannot guarantee that any company will comply with a data rights request submitted through the platform. SafeQloud has no access to a company's internal systems and no technical means to verify whether a deletion, correction, or restriction request has been actioned within those systems.

Users should be aware that:

  • Submitting a deletion request through SafeQloud creates a documented, timestamped record and formally notifies the company — but does not constitute confirmation that the data has been deleted
  • Compliance with data rights requests is a legal obligation of the company, not of SafeQloud
  • If a company fails to comply with a valid GDPR request, users have the right to escalate to their national supervisory authority

Network enforcement. SafeQloud takes compliance within its network seriously. If SafeQloud becomes aware that a company in the SafeQloud network is failing to comply with applicable data protection laws or with SafeQloud's platform requirements, that company will be removed from the network. Upon removal, the company loses access to SafeQloud infrastructure and its users are notified. SafeQloud cannot guarantee detection of all violations but will act on every violation it becomes aware of.

SafeQloud's own data handling practices comply with GDPR and applicable national data protection law in all jurisdictions in which it operates.

Section 08

International data transfers

SafeQloud operates across Europe, the Middle East, and North America. Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure adequate protection through one or more of the following:

  • European Commission adequacy decisions
  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
  • Binding Corporate Rules where applicable

You may request information about the specific safeguards applied to your data by contacting privacy@safeqloud.com.

Section 08

When you delete your SafeQloud account, your personal data is removed from active systems within 30 days, subject to legal retention obligations. Anonymised aggregate data may be retained for platform analysis.

Section 09

Cookies

SafeQloud uses a minimal set of cookies necessary for platform operation and security. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking cookies.

  • Essential cookies — required for login sessions, security, and basic platform function. These cannot be disabled without preventing platform use.
  • Functional cookies — remember your preferences and settings across sessions.
  • Analytics cookies — anonymised usage data to understand how the platform is used. No personal identification. You may opt out at any time through your account settings.

We do not use Google Analytics or similar third-party tracking tools on authenticated platform pages.

Section 10

Exercising your rights

Most rights can be exercised directly through your SafeQloud account:

  • Access and portability — available from Account Settings → Data export
  • Consent management and revocation — available from your Consent Centre
  • Deletion requests to third-party platforms — available via SQ Privacy

For rights that cannot be exercised self-service, submit a written request to privacy@safeqloud.com. We will respond within 30 days in accordance with GDPR Article 12. We may request proof of identity before processing your request.

If you believe your rights have not been respected, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection supervisory authority.

Section 11

Children

SafeQloud is not directed at children under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 16. If you believe a child has created an account or submitted personal data to SafeQloud, please contact privacy@safeqloud.com and we will delete the data promptly.

Section 12
