Information we collect automatically:

• Device information: device type, operating system, and unique device identifiers
• Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 7)

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

We may share your information in the following circumstances:

• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), hashed password storage, and access controls.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. If you request account deletion, we will delete or anonymise your data within 30 days, except where we are required by law to retain certain information for longer.

Pitch materials and communications may be retained for a reasonable period for dispute resolution purposes.

We use cookies and similar technologies to maintain your session, remember your preferences, and understand how users interact with our Platform. These include:
