How this Works

About this Site
This site is an open-source reference design. It’s really good. We are going to make it work. Any OBADA member can download it for free and integrate it into their own business processes.
Why this is needed.. a real explanation will go here or somewhere else, shortly.

Based on Open Standards
The data is stored on the decentralized OBADA blockchain. There is no central authority in charge. You own our data. Sort of, once we add a privacy layer that is. For now it’s just open.
The OBADA standard is governed by the OBADA Alliance, a nonprofit consortium of stakeholders in the recycling industry, dedicated to improving recycling compliance and extending the life of devices through reuse.
