Privacy

The short version

This site collects nothing. There is no account, no analytics and no cookies. If you email us, we have your email. That's the whole of it.

What that means in practice

The site itself. No cookies are set, no analytics run, no third-party trackers load. Fonts and images are served from this domain, so visiting doesn't report you to anyone else.

If you email. We hold your address and whatever you chose to write, usually your name, your background and a link to what you're building. It's used to read your application and reply, and for nothing else.

Hosting. Whoever hosts this site keeps ordinary server logs, as every host does.

Events. Community events are run on other platforms, under their own privacy notices, not this one.

Who else sees it

Nobody it isn't meant for. Your application isn't circulated to partners, mentors or investors unless you've agreed to it. Your data is not sold, and it isn't used to make automated decisions about you.

How long it's kept

No longer than it's useful. You can ask for your data to be deleted at any time and it will be, unless there's a legal reason to keep it.

What you can ask for

A copy of what's held about you, a correction, a deletion, or that we stop using it. If you're in the EU, the GDPR gives you these rights and the right to complain to your national data protection authority.

Other sites

Links here go to partners, community pages and startups. Their privacy practices are their own.

Changes

If the site starts collecting anything, a form, an analytics tool, a cookie, this page says so before it happens, and the date at the top changes.
