Privacy Policy update — startup tools

Posted 2026-10-29 · Effective 2026-10-29

The Privacy Policy gains a clause for the Preterview Startup tools (business plan feedback, IR deck feedback, mock IR): what is collected, why, how long it is kept, and which processors handle it.

This revision takes effect on the posting date, and the wording below appears in the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. It applies only to the new startup tools; how existing services handle data does not change.

New clause

3-6. Startup tools (business plan feedback, IR deck feedback, mock IR)

What we collect: the contents of the business plans and IR materials you upload or paste, the pitch scripts and answers you enter in mock IR, and the reports made from them (including short quotations from your materials), stored in your account. Materials may contain company and financial information and team members' names and careers. Please remove other people's contact details and national ID numbers before uploading. If you present by voice, your browser transcribes it; we do not receive or store audio files.

Why we use it: to write feedback reports on your materials and to run mock IR questions and write its evaluation report. It is not shown to institution staff and is not used for advertising, marketing or AI providers' model training.

How long we keep it: only uploaded PDFs over 3MB are placed in temporary storage, and a daily cleanup at 05:00 Korea time deletes files uploaded more than 24 hours earlier, so an original is deleted within 48 hours of upload at most. PDFs of 3MB or less and pasted text are sent with the analysis request and are not stored as originals. Result reports and mock IR records are kept until you withdraw, and only your latest 20 mock IR records are kept. On withdrawal we delete remaining uploaded originals and mock IR records and empty the report text and title; the report type, score and time remain without a link to your account, as described in Section 6.

Processors and international transfers: Anthropic (United States) is used to write the feedback and the mock IR questions and evaluation. On a processing error, on the same basis as portfolio and interview feedback in Section 4, the same input may be sent to another provider, OpenAI (United States). The items sent are the contents of your materials, the settings you chose with them, and your mock IR pitch script, questions and answers. Storage uses Turso.

Provision to third parties: we do not provide these items to third parties; the processors above only process them for us.

Added to Section 4 (Processors & Sub-processors)

· Startup tools (business plan feedback, IR deck feedback, mock IR): Anthropic (Claude API), and OpenAI (API) on a processing error — analyzes the contents of your materials and your mock IR pitch script, questions and answers to generate feedback reports and mock IR questions and evaluation. Section 3-6 lists the items sent and retention.

Added to Section 5 (International Transfers)

· If you use the startup tools, items transferred to Anthropic (United States), or to OpenAI (United States) on a processing error: the contents of the business plan or IR materials you upload with the settings you chose, and your mock IR pitch script, questions and answers. Transferred items are not used for AI providers' model training.

Added to Terms of Service Section 6 (Disclaimer)

Results from the startup tools (business plan feedback, IR deck feedback, mock IR) are reference material for improving your documents. They are not investment, funding, tax or legal advice and do not guarantee selection for a support program or investment. The judges in mock IR are fictional and are not real people or institutions.

Before this change: the Privacy Policy had no clause on the startup tools, and neither the processors section nor the international transfers section listed them.
