Tails is a non-profit organization whose mission is to empower people worldwide by giving out an operating system that protects from surveillance and censorship.
We make digital security tools accessible to everyone, whenever they need it: activists, journalists, freedom fighters, and ultimately, you, whenever you need extra privacy in this digital world.
The Tails project was started in 2009 and has now more than 25 000 daily users.

We put our users first, not profits.
All our work is published as Free Software and we work closely with related projects (Debian, GNOME, Tor, etc.).
We are a small team that values transparency, autonomy, and horizontal decision-making.
We are a fully remote team and our team members can work from anywhere they want around the world. We have workers in 8 different countries.
People work for Tails full-time, part-time, or as consultants.
If you
like flexibility, Tails is a place for you.
We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all. We have a transparent compensation scheme where everybody enjoys comparable pay and benefits.
