Front End Developer - remote

About Privacy Hero

Your Privacy Is Being Invaded. We Don’t Think That’s OK. We started Privacy Hero because we believe you should always have the right to privacy.

• We believe you shouldn’t have to second guess which websites you visit because you’re worried about who might find out someday.
• We believe you should have control over the amount of private info complete strangers have about your household’s browsing habits.
• We believe safe, private internet access is only getting more important as more and more devices in your home become connected.
• Most of all, we believe protecting your household’s privacy should be simple. You shouldn’t have to be a tech geek to keep your household’s data private and secure. With Privacy Hero, it’s as simple as plugging in/setting up the router and letting us handle the rest.
