About us

From a web agency to meetergo

In 2019 we built websites in Cologne and made them GDPR compliant. Today we build the software we were missing back then.

Our story

How data protection became a product

  1. 201801

    The GDPR applies

    Since 25 May 2018 the General Data Protection Regulation has applied across the EU. For many small businesses, their own website became a legal matter.

    Regulation (EU) 2016/679

    General Data Protection Regulation

    • Art. 5 Principles
    • Art. 6 Lawfulness
    • Art. 28 Processor
    • Art. 44 Transfers to third countries
    Applies from25.05.2018
  2. 201902

    Our web agency in Cologne

    With webnature we designed and programmed websites. And we made them GDPR compliant, down to the last embedded font.

    The Privacy Shield falls

    Following complaints by Max Schrems, the CJEU struck down Safe Harbor in 2015 and the Privacy Shield on 16 July 2020. Sending data to US providers became legally uncertain for European companies.

    The first version of meetergo

    We could hardly find a GDPR compliant booking tool, so we built one ourselves. Financed from the agency's reserves, without investors.

    Google Fonts in court

    The Munich Regional Court ruled that loading Google Fonts from Google's servers passes on the IP address without consent. Many small websites then received warning letters.

    A platform from Germany

    The booking tool became a platform for bookings, communication, closing and team. We are based in Monheim am Rhein, our servers run at Hetzner in Nuremberg.

Can I set a separate buffer time for each meeting type?

“Ignoring data protection is not only unprofessional, in my view it is also ethically indefensible.”

exali, 2022

“Raising capital from investors takes a lot of time and energy. We decided to invest those resources directly in our customers and our product instead.”
