Privacy Policy (draft)

startuproof.com and Founder OS are operated by Startup Roof (operating entity to be confirmed) (“we”, “us”). Registered details will be published here before launch. Privacy contact: ritesh@startuproof.com.

This website is a preview. Its forms check what you type but do not store, log or send it. Sign-up creates a session only in your browser. Personal-data collection will start only after Ritesh approves this policy.

Once approved: account data (name, email, role), profile data you choose to add (company, needs, skills, industry, stage, location), usage data if you accept analytics cookies, and messages you send us.

To provide Founder OS, match you with relevant people and opportunities, process introduction and meeting requests you initiate, send service emails, and improve the product. We never sell personal data.

Each sensitive profile field has a visibility setting: Public, Members only, Investor-only or Private. Contact details are shared only after you accept an introduction.

We process data on the basis of contract, consent and legitimate interests, in line with applicable law, including the UAE PDPL and the GDPR where relevant. You can access, correct, export or delete your data from Settings, or by contacting us.

We keep data while your account is active, plus a limited period afterwards for legal obligations. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest with our hosting providers.
