Introduction

We believe your data belongs to you and we take several important steps to disincentivise us to exploit your privacy.

One of the biggest pressures for extractive business practices in mid-later stage companies is the uncapped upside for stakeholders. The pressure increases the more the company reaches its natural "service limit" - so the max amount of people it can be useful to. Then growth has to come from elsewhere, i.e. creating lock-ins, making more addictive algorithms, and data ownership/privacy violations.

Memex has from the start been operating as a Steward Owned business that caps the upside team and investors.
Our aim is to gain the economic freedom to "do the right things" and to have incentives to regenerate instead to extract, And all that while still operating as a for profit company that can equip contributor/risk takers with safety, wealth and opportunity.

We do this to remove the economic incentives for profit-at-all-costs that usually lead to extractive activities, i.e. creating lock-ins, making more addictive algorithms, and data ownership/privacy violations.

Your data is stored on your computer by default and exportable there. To provide sync, collaboration features and the automatic backup, Memex data is also synced to our Firebase servers. You can export your data at any time on your local machine and [ask us to delete your account.


We operate with a strong ethos for valuing data ownership and data privacy, which may not always be feasible to achieve via technological means, but better via economic incentives or organisational safeguards. Especially in a multi-peer collaborative environment, a zero knowledge privacy system is hard to build and maintain, which is out of our budget right now.


We vouch that we have never and will never look at your personal data without consent even if it is right now technically possible. As we mature as a service and business we will attempt to further improve our operational privacy.
