COMPANY

## Our story and vision

Usercentrics has grown from a start-up to a leading innovator of consent technology for the new internet economy focused on user choice. Based on unrivaled data privacy technology that has pioneered consent management platforms since 2012, we at Usercentrics work for a better internet for everyone.

For too long, user data privacy has been defined by a trade-off between growth and compliance. Our vision is to unlock the potential of user data privacy to empower a thriving digital ecosystem. Our customers build trust with their users through improved transparency and control — drastically improving marketing and monetization while achieving privacy compliance.

Through our products, thought leadership and extraordinary team, we are a driving force behind the privacy-led revolution changing the digital landscape for good.

At Usercentrics, we believe that consent is a basic human right and that any successful data-driven business model of the future thinks consent and compliant data into the center of their enterprise.

## Who is Usercentrics?

Consent is at the core of our business and our culture. We want everyone at Usercentrics to #ComeAsYouAre. Trust is a gift, and we work to establish Usercentrics as a safe space. From there we work to grow and make it an environment where everyone can thrive.

We strive to create a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to reach their full potential. We believe that our different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives are our greatest strengths — so we are committed to building with them as we foster innovation and drive our success.

We recognize that this is an ongoing journey. We commit to listening and to continuous learning, growth, and improvement. By embracing DEI principles, we will create a more just and equitable society, and we are proud to play our part in making this vision a reality.
