**[data.coop]({{< ref "/" >}})** is an association and a cooperative.
The community consists of members around the Copenhagen-area and is open to inquiries from abroad to start sister infrastructures based on the same principles.
If you are interested in becoming a member of data.coop but you are not able to participate in physical meetings in Copenhagen, we encourage that you get in touch with us about a vision you have for your community, rather than signing up as a member.
We — the members of the cooperative — own our own data.
In practice, this means that:
* We own our own hardware.
* We only use Open Source Software.
The cooperative owns 2 rack servers, of which one is in use and one is spare.
You can find us here:
* Matrix: [#data.coop:data.coop](https://matrix.to/#/#data.coop:data.coop)
* IRC (Libera.chat): #data.coop
* Our [Forgejo server](https://git.data.coop/data.coop/)
