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.
