What Makes Cloudflare Special?

We're not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company.
We're a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company with a soul.
Fundamental to our mission to help build a better Internet is protecting the free and open Internet.

Project Galileo: We equip politically and artistically important organizations and journalists with powerful tools to defend themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work, technology already used by Cloudflare's enterprise customers--at no cost.

Athenian Project: We created Athenian Project to ensure that state and local governments have the highest level of protection and reliability for free, so that their constituents have access to election information and voter registration.

1.1.1.1: We released 1.1.1.1 to help fix the foundation of the Internet by building a faster, more secure and privacy-centric public DNS resolver.
This is available publicly for everyone to use - it is the first consumer-focused service Cloudflare has ever released.
Here's the deal - we don't store client IP addresses never, ever.
We will continue to abide by our privacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
