Get to know the Freedelity team, its founders and the company project.
Freedelity was founded in 2009 when Belgium was pioneering the deployment of the electronic identity card.
"Stuck on holiday, with no connection but with a reader and an ID card, I wondered why we still had so many other cards in our wallet" - Sébastien Buysse
Once the prototype was completed, Sébastien founded the company along with Marc Alagem. The two partners, quickly joined by David Van Tieghem, then set up the company's sales and marketing strategy.
Inspired from the beginning by extensive experience in the ICT field, the objectives were twofold:
Guarantee each consumer secure access to their own personal data and their ability to control the use of this data with respect to direct marketing purposes.
Simplify the life of merchants and help them better know and communicate with their customers.
Since 2009, the company has grown to become a benchmark in the collection and processing of personal data.
