Problem
Individuals lack control over their personal data, which is often collected and used by companies for purposes users are unaware of or haven't explicitly consented to. This lack of transparency and control raises privacy concerns and limits individuals' ability to manage their digital identities.
Solution
Stichting Nederlandse Datakluis provides a personal data vault infrastructure that empowers individuals to store and manage their personal data. This online vault gives users sole control over their data, allowing them to decide who can access it, for what purpose, and for how long. By storing data in a personal vault, individuals regain control over their information and can grant permission for its use in a transparent and informed manner. The platform aims to shift the current data paradigm from one where data is centrally stored by providers to a model where users maintain ownership and agency over their digital footprint.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is individuals concerned about their online privacy and data control, as well as organizations seeking to build trusted relationships with users through transparent data practices.
