Data protection is no longer just a legal obligation – it’s a promise of trust to customers and partners. Especially in Europe, the GDPR imposes some of the world’s strictest standards. Yet many companies continue to rely on opaque black-box systems from international providers, entering a grey area of liability.
Open-source solutions offer a clear advantage: they are transparent, auditable, and adaptable. Companies can always trace how their systems process data – and make adjustments to ensure compliance. At |knowhere, this is at the core of what we do: our entire infrastructure is built on open source and operated entirely in-house. This allows us to actively design privacy-friendly standards – rather than just comply with them.
For example: Our cookie and privacy policies are intentionally lean – not because we’re hiding something, but because we don’t use third-party trackers like Google Analytics. All analytics and operational data remain on our servers – under our control. This not only reduces legal risks, but also builds trust with customers and partners.
If you take privacy seriously, there’s no need to compromise. Open source isn’t just an option – it’s the logical choice. With |knowhere, you combine technical excellence with a clear commitment to digital sovereignty – fully aligned with the GDPR.
