App development

Privacy-first, GDPR app development

Privacy is not a feature you bolt on at the end - it is a decision you make on the first day and every day after. We build apps privacy-by-design: they collect only the data they genuinely need, keep it in the EU, and never hide trackers or dark patterns to squeeze out more. That makes GDPR far easier to meet, because there is simply less data to account for, and it earns the trust that keeps users coming back. Both of our own apps are built this way - FileClipSync sends your files straight between your devices with nothing stored on our servers, and PollsLive keeps audience data in Europe. We bring the same approach to the apps we build for clients across the EU.

Why it is a good fit

  • Collect only the data the app truly needs
  • Hosted in the EU, so data stays in Europe
  • No hidden trackers and no dark patterns
  • GDPR far easier to meet - less data to account for
  • Clear, honest consent and privacy wording
  • The kind of trust that keeps users coming back

What you get

  • Privacy by design
  • EU-based hosting
  • Collect only what is needed
  • GDPR-ready from day one

One fixed price, one clear list of what you get, and the app is yours to keep once it is paid for.

How we build it

Four simple steps, so you always know what is happening.

01

Get to know it

First we learn your idea, who it is for, and what it needs to do. Then we agree on a plan and a timeline.

02

Draw the screens

We draw the screens so you can see and try the app before we write any code.

03

Build it

We build it in small steps and show you often, so you always know how it is going.

04

Launch it

We put it live - App Store, Google Play, or the web - and help you after launch.

Good questions

Before you ask

What does privacy by design actually mean? +
It means privacy is built in from the first decision, not added at the end. The app collects the least data it can, keeps it safe, and only asks for what it truly needs to work.
Where is the data stored? +
In the EU. We host on European infrastructure so your users' data stays in Europe, which is one of the simplest ways to keep GDPR straightforward.
Does building this way cost more? +
No, usually the opposite. Collecting less data means less to build, store and secure. Privacy-first tends to make an app simpler, not more expensive.
Can you make an existing app more GDPR-friendly? +
Often, yes. We can review an app you already have, find where it collects or shares more than it needs, and help tighten it up - though it is always easier when privacy is there from the start.
