Open Privacy Research Society is a non-profit society based in Vancouver, Canada, that is dedicated to researching, building, and deploying technology to serve marginalized communities. They firmly believe that everyone deserves access to privacy-enhancing technologies, and with the help of donations, they can conduct cutting-edge research, design innovative solutions, and provide much-needed technology to those who need it most. Open Privacy offers a range of products and services to achieve their mission.

Their projects include Cwtch, a metadata-resistant group communication platform for building privacy-preserving applications, and Lockbox, an encrypted web forms solution that enables safe and secure mutual aid. They are also actively involved in research and disclosure efforts, including investigating cryptographic vulnerabilities in the Swiss Post/Scytl e-voting system and raising awareness about security breaches like the Vancouver patient medical data pager breach. Open Privacy is committed to decentralizing control, ensuring that no single organization has disproportionate power over systems.

They also prioritize designing for marginalized communities and building tools tailored to their unique needs, with the goal of empowering and protecting them. Furthermore, Open Privacy emphasizes transparency, producing open research, developing free and open-source software, and operating as an open organization with open governance.
