鈥�Having been on the inside of the tech world, we saw how people, and even ourselves are losing trust in tech companies. As three entrepreneurs, investors and tech geeks, we set out to do what we know best: use technology to solve problems.鈥�
鈥淲e believe now is the time to drive a major market shift by providing people worldwide with a real choice about who gets to keep their data and how it鈥檚 used. Welcome to the future of data ownership鈥�
Mine鈥檚 technology works through machine learning algorithms, utilising users鈥� email inboxes to find digital traces of relationships with various different companies that may have stored their data. The startup鈥檚 technology conducts this search without reading, collecting or storing any content from these emails, upholding its ethos of putting people in control of their personal data.
