Skkr is a Danish non-profit organization working to make it possible for people in abusive relationships to find help in a safe and discreet way.

What is Skkr

Skkr is a digital solution that enables people to find help related to violence and abuse in a safe and anonymous way. Through a discreet widget that can be integrated into websites, Skkr provides access to information about domestic violence, safety, leaving an abusive situation, counseling, and shelters, without leaving traces in browser history or collecting personal data.

The solution is designed for individuals experiencing psychological or physical abuse who need safe and anonymous access to support. Skkr makes it possible to seek help in situations where searching for information online may otherwise involve risk.

For many, looking up information online can be dangerous when living in an abusive relationship. Skkr is built specifically to address this challenge. Through a simple and discreet widget, integrated directly into websites, it enables anonymous access to information about safety, leaving, counseling, and shelters, without leaving digital traces or collecting personal data.

Pronunciation

Skkr is pronounced “Sikker”, which means “safe” or “secure” in Danish.

The name reflects the purpose of the project, to create a safe and discreet way for people to access help and information, especially in situations where seeking help can involve risk.

Our purpose

The purpose of Skkr is to reduce barriers to seeking help. The goal is to make life-saving information accessible where people already are digitally, without requiring active searching or exposing them to risk.

Who we help

Skkr is designed for:

• people in abusive relationships

• people at risk of violence

• relatives who want to help

• organizations and professionals working with these groups

In the future, Skkr will expand with a dedicated section for children and young people experiencing conflict, bullying, or violence in the home.

How it works

Skkr can be integrated into any website with just a few lines of code. Once implemented, users can access relevant and up-to-date information in a way that does not leave digital traces.

The solution is built with a strong focus on data security, anonymity, and ease of implementation. At the same time, content and functionality can be updated centrally, without requiring changes from the organizations that have implemented the widget.

Our Approach

Access to information is often the first step toward seeking help. Skkr is not a replacement for existing services, but a supplement that makes it easier to find and reach them.

Funding

Skkr is a non-profit organization. In its early stage, the project is funded through personal resources and is sustained through donations, grants, and support from foundations and partners.

The goal is to keep the solution free to implement and use, ensuring it can reach as many people as possible.
