Own your life’s data.

Companies build a profile of your family from everything you give them. SovereignLife brings your photos, email, documents, money and health records home, onto a system you own, so there is far less to build it from.

You’re not alone

Most people are worried. Few know what to do about it.

Six in ten Americans doubt that anything they do will make a difference. SovereignLife is the part that does, and we do the work for you.

81%

are concerned about how companies use the data they collect about them

72%

want more rules on what companies can do with personal information, a majority in both parties

61%

doubt that anything they do themselves will make much difference

The profile built about you

They don’t just know who you are. They predict what you’ll do next.

Companies combine what you hand them with information bought from data brokers, companies that collect and sell personal details. The result has five layers. SovereignLife cuts off the supply to each one.

01

Identity

Who you are

They can assemble

Name, email, phone, addresses, age, household size, estimated income

SovereignLife cuts off

A different email address for every website, removal from people-search sites, and closing accounts you no longer use

02

Behavior

How you act

They can assemble

Your devices, where you go, what you search, how long you look, which emails you open

SovereignLife cuts off

Hidden tracking code blocked on every device, at home and away; AI questions that never leave home

03

Spending

How you spend

They can assemble

What you buy, how you pay, whether you wait for sales

SovereignLife cuts off

Your full financial picture kept at home; your bank password never given to a budgeting app

04

Interests

Why you buy

They can assemble

Hobbies, health, values; predicted events like a pregnancy or a move

SovereignLife cuts off

Photos, health logs, documents and your family tree kept at home

05

Predictions

What you’ll do next

They can assemble

Likelihood to cancel, your next purchase, the most you’ll pay

SovereignLife cuts off

Less goes in from every layer above

3,000

labels kept on nearly every American by one data broker, a company that collects and sells personal information. Labels included “Expectant Parent” and “Diabetes Interest.”

FTC data broker report, 2014

Non-users too

Large social media and streaming companies collected data on people who never used them, and some did not fully delete data when asked.

Your price

Pricing software can use where you are, what you browse and what you leave in online shopping carts. A shopper tagged as a new parent may see higher-priced baby items first.

FTC study on personalized pricing, 2025 (preliminary)

What we can’t do: erase profiles companies already hold, or change what a site records while you use it. We cut off what they receive from here on, and we tell you exactly what remains.

Your health is not their business

Your doctor can’t sell your health records. Your fitness app can, and some have.

Health privacy law covers doctors, hospitals and insurers. Most fitness, period-tracking and wellness apps fall outside it. SovereignLife keeps your workouts, health records and medical questions at home.

Scam calls

It sounds exactly like your grandson. It might not be him.

A scammer needs only a short clip of a loved one’s voice, often from a video posted online, and a listing that tells them who you are to that person.

$893M

lost by Americans in 2025 to fraud involving AI, including voice clones of loved ones, in complaints to the FBI.

FBI, April 2026

A short clip

of a family member’s voice, taken from something posted online, is all a scammer needs for a voice-cloning program.

FTC consumer alert, 2023

  1. 1
    Fewer clues for scammers Included

    We remove people-search listings that show your relatives’ names and phone numbers.

  2. 2
    A family code phrase Included

    Kept in your Family Vault, with a trusted number for every relative. A real grandson knows the phrase.

  3. 3
    Call back on a number you trust Included

    Hang up, then call the person back on the number saved in your vault. It’s the FTC’s own advice.

  4. 4
    Call Protection Included

    Unknown callers screened before your phone or home line rings, with no contact list uploaded anywhere.

No tool can reliably tell a cloned voice from a real one during a call. That’s why the family code phrase matters most.

How it works

A guided path, not a software install.

We start where your exposure hurts most, usually photos or health, and move one step at a time. Every three months we check again and show you the numbers.

  1. 01

    Assess

    We count every place your family’s information lives: online accounts, devices, apps and people-search sites.

    You see: Your Footprint Baseline
  2. 02

    Reclaim

    We export your data from the companies holding it, with nothing silently dropped.

    You see: A checklist of what came back
  3. 03

    Relocate

    We set up your private system and move your photos, files and records in.

    You see: Your things on your system
  4. 04

    Reduce

    We close old accounts, ask people-search sites to remove you, set up private email addresses and adjust device settings.

    You see: A before-and-after report
  5. 05

    Sustain

    Updates, around-the-clock checks, backups we test by restoring them, and a check-up every three months.

A day with SovereignLife

You use your computer the same way.

We change where your things are kept, what each website learns about you, and who can see it.

Stays the same

  • Your Windows PC, Mac or phone
  • Your browser and favorite sites
  • Word, Excel and your printer
  • Your bank’s own website

Changes underneath

  • Email on your family’s own address
  • Files sync home, not to OneDrive or iCloud
  • Hidden tracking code blocked on every device
  • Passwords filled in by your Family Vault

Two new habits

  • Save to your SovereignLife folder
  • Tap the private-address button when a website asks for your email

Who sees what

Every piece of your data passes five gates.

Your own things are private until you share them. Every SovereignLife visit needs your approval and is recorded where you can see it.

  1. 1
    Your device

    Only devices your family has approved can reach your system.

  2. 2
    Your sign-in

    Your own login with a second step. No shared passwords.

  3. 3
    Your role

    Adults, teens and children see different capabilities.

  4. 4
    Your space

    Your things stay private until you share them.

  5. 5
    Your key

    Passwords, saved email and the backup copy kept away from home stay locked with your family’s key.

Locked with your key

Scrambled with a key only your family holds. No one else can read it, including us.

Questions

The ones every family asks.

Straight answers, including what SovereignLife can’t do.

Can you see my data?

Your passwords, saved email and the backup copy kept away from home are locked with your family’s key, so only your family can read them. For everything else, a SovereignLife visit needs your approval, lasts up to four hours (two by default) and is recorded where you can see it.

They already have my data. What’s the point?

Profiles depend on a steady supply of new information. From day one, every closed account, every private email address and every blocked tracker is information they no longer receive. We can’t erase what a company already holds, and we’ll tell you so.

I have nothing to hide.

This is about ownership, not secrets. Companies use what they gather to predict what you’ll do and to choose the prices you see.

What if a call sounds exactly like someone I love?

Voices can be copied from a short clip posted online. Ask for your family’s code phrase, or hang up and call back on the number saved in your Family Vault. We also remove the people-search listings scammers use to find your relatives.

What if the system breaks?

Your data is backed up in two places, and every three months we prove the backups work by restoring from them.

What if we want to leave?

Everything is yours. You get an Exit Kit: your keys, written instructions, and your files in standard formats any computer can open.
