Zero advertising

Advertising is not welcome on our site. No advertising is present, and none will ever be present, on the digital spaces offered by The Big Challenge.

For maximum security, all data is hosted in Europe by AWS. The data centre is secure and complies with the requirements of data-security standards and certifications.

No software to download

Also for maximum security, The Big Challenge’s digital spaces work online through the web browser of your computer, tablet or smartphone. There is no software to download or install.
