About Us
Why We Created ToolHive
ToolHive was born out of frustration—frustration with how complicated GDPR and data protection can be. Big companies have teams of lawyers to handle compliance, but small and medium-sized businesses? They're often left to navigate a sea of legal jargon on their own. Many companies believe they're doing enough, but due to limited time and resources, they may unknowingly fall short. We wanted to change that.
Who We Are
We are a team of tech and privacy enthusiasts who believe that GDPR compliance shouldn't be a privilege only large corporations can afford. Based in Europe, we saw a need for a solution that makes data protection clear, accessible, and actionable for everyone. That's why we built ToolHive—to simplify compliance and give businesses the tools they need to stay on top of data privacy.
Our Mission
Our primary mission is to make GDPR and data protection accessible to all businesses. Instead of overwhelming you with legal complexities, ToolHive asks straightforward, easy-to-understand questions, helping you identify what needs attention without the headaches. Compliance shouldn't be a guessing game, and with ToolHive, it isn't.
Built for Europe, by Europe
We also have a second mission: to support European companies with European-built software. Unlike many platforms that rely on U.S. infrastructure, we exclusively use European services to power ToolHive. Every provider we work with is listed transparently in our privacy policy because we believe in practicing what we preach—full transparency and data protection at every level.
At ToolHive, we're not just about compliance; we're about making data protection fair, accessible, and built with integrity. Let's make GDPR simple, together.
