Privacy Policy

The Simple Version

We respect your privacy. We only collect what we need, we don't sell your data, and we're transparent about what we do with it.

What We Collect

If You Register

• Email address: We use this to authenticate you and send important updates about your account
• Password: Stored securely and encrypted - we can't see your actual password
• Activity data: What startups you add, search for, or interact with

For Everyone

• Standard analytics: Your ISP and browser automatically share things like IP address, browser type, and pages visited
• Cookies: Small files that help the site work properly and remember your preferences

How We Use Your Data

• To provide and improve the service
• To authenticate you when you log in
• To send you important updates (we won't spam you)
• To understand how people use the platform so we can make it better
• To prevent abuse and keep the platform secure

What We Don't Do

• We don't sell your personal information to anyone
• We don't share your email with third parties for marketing
• We don't track you across other websites
• We don't use your data for anything sketchy

Third-Party Services

We use some third-party services to make the platform work and those services have their own privacy policies and may collect standard analytics data.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access the data we have about you
• Request corrections to your data
• Delete your account and associated data
• Export your data
• Opt out of non-essential communications

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no system is 100% secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.

Children's Privacy

Our service is intended for general audiences. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We'll notify you of significant changes by email or through the platform.
