Disciplined stewardship of the world's most valuable asset.
You-DB connects principled data holders with vetted institutional
buyers. We bring transparency, governance, and fiduciary rigor to a market
that has long deserved better.
Take equity in your life online. Upload the cookies you already generate,
see what they're worth under a transparent model, and offer them to vetted
buyers — on your terms, with consent you can revoke at any time.
YouDB lists your consented data but does not guarantee a buyer.
For buyers
Buy consented data, ethically
Institutions, marketing teams, academics, journalists, and independent
researchers can source quality-scored, consented audience segments —
provenance attached, purpose certified, nothing acquired in the dark.
YouDB aims to supply you with data of the highest quality and consent but supply varies and campaign results are not guaranteed.
The Mission
A house built on trust, not extraction.
For too long, individuals have surrendered their data without
recompense, and institutions have acquired it without provenance. We
founded You-DB to correct both failures at once.
Every transaction on our exchange is consented, audited, and settled
under a single standard of care. We act as steward to the seller and as
counsel to the buyer — never as a broker indifferent to either.
Services
What we administer on your behalf.
Data Custody
Sovereign-grade custody for first-party datasets, with cryptographic
provenance and consent records held to fiduciary standard.
Market Access
Direct, transparent access to a vetted network of institutional
buyers, with negotiated terms and full price discovery.
Governance & Compliance
Continuous oversight across jurisdictions, ensuring every
disposition is lawful, consented, and defensible on audit.
Our Approach
Conservative by temperament. Exacting by design.
Consent first. No dataset enters our market without a verifiable, revocable mandate from its owner.
Provenance always. Every record carries an unbroken chain of origin and right-to-sell.
Alignment over volume. We are compensated for outcomes, not throughput.
