Who we are

The Sovereign is a platform that provides sovereign features — market today, and more surfaces over time — all running on one shared foundation of identity, storage, consent, payments, and signatures. We run the software. We are not a party to your transactions or to your relationships with other people on the platform.

Your content

You own what you post, message, or review on any feature. By using The Sovereign, you grant us a narrow, revocable license to show and distribute your content for the purposes of running the platform.

Your identity

We generate a portable Nostr identity for you so that you do not have to think about it. You can export it any time and continue using your identity on other compatible platforms and apps.

Payments

Subscriptions and payouts flow through the Lightning-compatible wallet we provision, or one you connect via NWC. You can export or sweep your wallet at any time.

Acceptable use

Do not use The Sovereign to harm people or break the law.

Data retention

We retain what's needed to run the platform. We do not sell user data. We do not run third-party trackers.
