### What is a Datapod?

### How to use Datapods?

All you need to get started is to download the Datapods app and create an account. We'll take care of the rest and request your data from other services that store your data.

### Why is it safe?

The data in your datapod is encrypted and stored on European servers. Every data transaction is validated, ensuring that your data remains under your control, with no unauthorized access.

### My app shows no data or only very little data

Check if you have granted access to your most used services under the connections tab. If you still have no data, it might be that you set very restrictive privacy settings on your other services.

### How do I earn money with Datapods?

Navigate to the Share tab in the app and set your preferences in which manner you want to share your data. We will keep you posted on transactions that you are eligible for according to your preferences.

### How do I delete my data from Datapods?
