About Ciphera

We are a small software company in Belgium. We make privacy-first tools for the web and run them on servers in Switzerland. The one we sell is Pulse Analytics.

Why we exist

Why we build it this way

Most companies answer “who can see my data?” with a privacy policy, and you have to take their word for it. We would rather the answer depend on how the software works. So we run our own sign-in and mail servers. We store your data in Switzerland, and much of our code is public, including this website.
