Privacy Policy & Terms of Use • Last updated: Sep 3, 2026

Data Collection

We collect your display name, photo, organization, LinkedIn URL, and WhatsApp number upon account creation via Google, Apple, or Microsoft SSO.

Data Usage

Your information powers the leaderboard, interactive profile grids, 1:1 chat features, and automated notifications.

Anonymity & Exposure

Enabling "Anonymous Mode" restricts public visibility to just your name. WhatsApp numbers are strictly hidden from the public feed and only revealed when you explicitly accept a transit or meetup connection.

Location & Tracking

Venue presence data (checking in/out of zones like the Expo Floor or Startups Alley) is collected to generate live user counts and venue heatmaps.

Cookie & Tracking Policy

  • Essential Cookies: Strictly necessary to maintain your logged-in session, authenticate your SSO credentials, and remember your #join number.
  • Performance Tracking: We utilize Google Analytics to monitor broad traffic patterns, SEO metrics, and feature engagement without tying granular behavior to your identifiable profile outside the app.
  • Functional Caching: To provide a seamless, offline-friendly Progressive Web App (PWA) experience, we utilize local browser storage to cache the live feed, session rollups, and your profile preferences.
