Mine Launches in UK, Empowering Users to Reclaim Their Data

  • Mine, a UK-based startup, has launched in the UK after raising a €2.7 million seed round from Battery Ventures and Saban Ventures

  • The company aims to give users control over their personal data by allowing them to discover their digital footprint, manage their data, and reclaim their data using the GDPR's "right to be forgotten" clause

  • Mine analyzes users' email inboxes to identify digital traces left by companies and sends reclaim requests on their behalf.

      "The problem people are facing is that they have very little control over their personal data online, which is being stored by multiple companies without their consent and is often used for unknown purposes."

      Solution

      "Mine offers a platform that helps users discover what the internet knows about them, giving them a choice where their data should or shouldn't be stored. It uses AI-based technology to analyze digital services and enable users to delete unused data and manage their digital footprint."
