Making protection accessible
Data Knight makes personal data protection accessible
Our first choice was to make the online data scan free. Making access to personal data and transparency available to everyone is central to Data Knight's mission.
Who are we?
Data Knight began with a need we all shared
We are four friends facing the same problem: we knew our data was circulating online, but had no way to see exactly which data or remove it easily.
We decided to build Data Knight for everyone who shares that frustration. We wanted transparency, simpler requests and one place to track them over time. These principles still guide every change we make.

Our answer
Turn expert work into an accessible service
Finding personal data, identifying the right contacts, understanding rights, sending requests and checking replies took too much time and expertise. We brought these steps into one process.
- 01
One clear overview
Find your online traces in one report with context, instead of searching service by service.
- 02
Choices clearly explained
Each result includes context so you understand what is exposed and decide what to keep, monitor or remove.
- 03
Managed and tracked requests
Requests, replies and follow-ups stay together. Data Knight organises the process and shows you its progress.
See, decide, act and check
Data Knight handles the practical complexity from start to finish, while keeping your decisions and any confirmations requested by organisations clearly visible.

Track progress
Track each request, its status and sending evidence in your dedicated account. It is your central control centre for all requests.
Understand ongoing tracking
Simple to use, clear about what happens
Making protection accessible does not mean hiding steps or promising instant removal. It means removing jargon, bringing the work together and reporting each result honestly.
No expertise needed
Legal and technical terms become useful information and clear next steps.
One tracking space
Scan results, sent requests, replies and follow-ups are brought together instead of scattered across your emails.
Results with clear status
A sent request is not shown as a successful removal. Status changes with the evidence and replies actually received.
You make the decision
We handle complexity, but never decide consent for you: choose the traces, scope and permitted actions.
Clear roles
We handle the complexity. You make the decisions
Data Knight handles the practical work without hiding how it works. Actions are managed, and personal decisions stay in your hands.
You keep control of
- The traces you want to remove.
- The scope of your authorisation.
- Any personal confirmations required.
- Decisions to make when an organisation replies.
- Whether to continue protection over time.
Frequently asked questions
See all FAQsHow does the service work?
What does handling the whole process mean?
Data Knight gathers your traces, helps you define the scope, prepares removal requests, sends them to the right contacts, arranges follow-ups and brings replies together. If an organisation requires confirmation or action from you, this is clearly highlighted in the process.
How can I see the results?
Your account shows the actual stage of each request: preparation, sent, awaiting a reply, action required or removal confirmed. Replies and next steps remain visible in the same place.
Does a sent request mean my data has been deleted?
No. A sent request shows that the process has started, not that the organisation has already deleted the data. Data Knight separates sending, interim replies and confirmation of the outcome so that work in progress is not presented as a completed success.
Do I need to understand the GDPR to use Data Knight?
No. The service turns legal and technical information into clear choices. You do not have to find the right forms or write every request yourself, but you decide which traces to address and which actions to authorise.
Do I stay in control when Data Knight handles the requests?
Yes. You choose which traces to address, define the scope and approve the mandate before any request is sent. Data Knight handles the practical work without making decisions for you.
Does Data Knight sell my data?
No. The data you entrust to Data Knight is used only for the scan and requests you ask us to carry out. It is never sold, is hosted in the European Union, and is secured and encrypted.
Is Data Knight a European company?
Yes. Data Knight is a French simplified joint-stock company (SAS), registered under number RCS Nanterre 101 323 129, with its registered office at 11 boulevard Bineau, 92300 Levallois-Perret, France.
