Anyone who loses something or wants to be reachable in an emergency faces a classic dilemma: If you leave no contact option, nobody can reach you. If you leave your phone number or address, that data ends up with everyone who finds it – not just the honest finder.
That's exactly where hiddencontact comes in: you remain reachable without sharing data that reveals your identity, your home address, or your private life.
The basic principle: reachability without sharing data
hiddencontact separates reachability from data disclosure. The finder scans the QR code or NFC tag and lands on a digital contact page – not on your phone number or address. The contact request runs through hiddencontact, your private data stays in the background.
Optionally, you can add supplementary information: a return request, a finder's reward note, a first name, or for SOS profiles, voluntary emergency information. The contact process itself works without any of these details.
hiddencontact consistently separates "being reachable" from "sharing data". The two don't exclude each other – you just need the right system.
How a contact request works
- The finder scans the QR code or NFC tag.
- Your digital contact page opens.
- The finder reaches out via hiddencontact.
- hiddencontact forwards the request to you according to your settings.
- You decide whether and how to respond.
Your direct contact details are never disclosed to the finder in this process.
What data hiddencontact processes
For operation, hiddencontact processes your stored contact options, profile contents, forwarding settings, and technical data for operation and security. Only what you explicitly release is publicly visible.
hiddencontact does not sell personal data and does not share it for advertising purposes. Processing follows the requirements of the GDPR.
You stay in control
The physical tag stays the same – the contents behind it can be changed at any time: change the contact channel, edit notes, deactivate the profile, or request data deletion. No new tag needed.
New number, new channel, moved house – just update your profile. The QR code on the tag remains valid unchanged.
Built with privacy in mind
- Data minimisation: Only the data truly necessary for operation.
- User control: You decide what is additionally visible.
- No personal data on the product: Phone number, address, email don't need to be on the tag.
- Right to erasure: Profile and data can be completely deleted.
- No advertising sharing: No data passed on to advertising partners.
