It's not obvious at first.
Sometimes it's a detail in your background. Sometimes it's a repost to a site you've never heard of. Sometimes it's an old account, a tagged location, a visible connection, or information stacked over time. Backspace helps you understand what's actually out there, what could realistically be pieced together, and what to do about it before and after it becomes overwhelming. From guides and education to audits and support for exposure and privacy concerns, our services are made to help you regain control online.
How we work
Your digital footprint is more than what appears on the first page of Google. We use OSINT techniques and investigative methods to assess what someone could discover from your profile. We look at what stands out, what could be inferred and connected, and what details could be used to reveal more than you intended. Every review is completed manually by our team, and ends with clear, personalised recommendations designed to reduce unnecessary exposure without changing who you are online.

If something online has left you feeling overwhelmed, exposed, or unsure what to do next, Backspace helps you understand your options and next steps clearly.

You'll benefit from working with us if:
You want to share your life online without giving up your privacy. You’re building a personal brand, business or online presence and want secure foundations from the start. You’ve realised just how much information about you is already online and want to take back control. You know that details matter, you just aren't sure which ones yet. You care about protecting the people around you just as much as protecting yourself. You’d rather prevent problems now than deal with them after something goes wrong. You believe privacy is about choosing what people get to know about you.
