Our belief and mission

Sheltr is an initiative sprung from within Cookie Information, with a distinct and vital mission: To make it easy and affordable for all organisations to protect individual digital rights.

At Sheltr, we wholeheartedly believe that your digital rights - like privacy, controlling your personal info, and keeping your identity safe - are just as crucial as any other human rights we all value. This belief isn’t just something we talk about; it’s what drives every solution we craft and every step we take.  Nowadays, considering digital rights and legal compliance as afterthoughts just don’t cut it. They're as essential as data security, accessibility, and user experience, forming the backbone of any organisation's values.

At Sheltr we work to simplify the protection of individual digital rights. We're committed to building privacy-first solutions that are easy to use and implement and cover all major data privacy legislations. We want organisations to shine in their compliance efforts, turning the potential pain of the privacy discipline into a source of strength, confidence, and competitive advantage. We believe that when organisations have clarity and confidence in their approach to digital rights, it reflects positively in their relationships with customers, employees, and partners. This transparency and trust are what we aim to foster at Sheltr.

Security and accountability in everything we do

Data protection by design. We build privacy into every process and every feature, collecting only the data that’s strictly necessary.
Industry-standard security practices. We follow industry-standard protections, encryption, monitoring, and secure coding, to reduce risk across systems.
Accountability and trust. We take full responsibility for handling data securely and ethically, upholding GDPR principles to ensure your information stays protected and trusted.
Strict access controls. We live by the principles of least privilege, ensuring access to data is only accessible to carefully selected users are.
