We collect information to help founders and investors connect. This includes:

• Account Basics: When you log in with Google, we receive your name, email address, and profile picture.
• Professional Profiles: Information you add to your Founder or Investor profile, like your bio, skills, and social media links.
• Startup Details: Data about your ventures, including funding goals, pitch descriptions, and demo links.
• Application Data: If you apply to a startup or role, we collect your CV, portfolio, and contact details.

2. What is public vs private?

It is important to understand who can see your information:

• Public: Your startup posts and Founder profiles are public. This means anyone visiting the site can see them.
• Private: Your personal CV, portfolio links, and private messages sent during applications are only visible to the specific startup founder you are reaching out to.
• Administrative: Our team can see your contact form messages to help provide support.

3. How we use your data

We use your data to:

• Verify your identity via Google and manage your account status.
• Provide a "Deal Flow" board for investors to discover startups.
• Facilitate meetings and professional connections.

4. Data security

We use secure UUIDs (unique identifiers) to protect your record IDs and use modern session handling to keep your login safe. We do not sell your data to any third-party companies.

5. Managing your info

You can update your profile or delete your startup posts at any time through your dashboard. If you want to completely delete your account, please contact us.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. If we make big changes, we will notify you through the platform.
