Chief of Staff to the CEO

About TrueVault

Privacy is important. Perhaps the most fundamental right we have.

At TrueVault, we believe that if businesses have access to products that make compliance simple, then respecting consumers' data privacy becomes the sensible default — and we all benefit from that. And that’s why we build software that helps businesses comply with consumer data privacy laws.

What we’ve figured out is how to help businesses comply with complicated rules and regulations on their own without the need for them to spend tens of thousands of dollars on legal fees.

We are a Y Combinator startup based in San Francisco, and we are fanatical about building great products and making our customers successful.
