Syntract Capital, Inc. ("Syntract," "we," "our," or "us") is a venture capital firm incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in New York, New York. We operate the website located at syntractsinc.com and any related subdomains (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information that we obtain from visitors to the Site, founders who submit pitches or inquiries, limited partners and prospective limited partners, portfolio company representatives, and other individuals who interact with us in a professional capacity.
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information processed by Syntract in connection with the Site and our business operations. It does not apply to the practices of third-party companies we do not own or control, or to individuals we do not employ or manage. By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the collection and use of your information as described herein.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or California, you may have additional rights with respect to your personal information. Those rights are described in the relevant sections of this Policy.
We collect personal information in several ways depending on how you interact with us and our Site.
When you submit a pitch, inquiry, or contact form through the Site, we collect the information you choose to provide, which may include:
When you communicate with us by email, telephone, or other means, we may retain records of that communication including the content of messages, attachments, and associated metadata.
When you attend an event we host or participate in, we may collect your name, organization, and contact information.
When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, browser, and usage patterns. This information may include:
We collect this information using cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, and similar technologies. See our Cookie Policy for more detail about how we use these technologies and how you can manage your preferences.
In the course of evaluating investment opportunities and conducting due diligence, we may collect information about individuals from publicly available sources, such as professional networking platforms, company websites, public company filings, news articles, and background check services. We use this information for investment evaluation and business development purposes.
We use personal information we collect for the following purposes:
When you submit a pitch, inquiry, or contact form, we use the information you provide to evaluate your submission, respond to your questions, and communicate with you about potential investment opportunities or other matters you raise.
For individuals associated with companies we are considering investing in, we use personal information as part of our investment evaluation and due diligence process. This may include verifying information you have provided, conducting background research, and sharing information with our investment committee.
We use automatically collected information to analyze how visitors use the Site, identify technical problems, improve Site performance, and develop new features. We may use this information to generate aggregated, de-identified statistics about Site usage that we use for business planning purposes.
As a registered investment advisor, we are subject to various legal and regulatory obligations that may require us to collect, retain, and report certain personal information. We process personal information as necessary to comply with applicable law, including securities regulations, anti-money-laundering requirements, and tax reporting obligations.
We may use personal information to enforce our legal rights, defend against legal claims, investigate suspected violations of our terms, and protect the safety and security of our operations.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share personal information in the following circumstances:
We engage third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, including web hosting providers, email service providers, analytics providers, background check services, and legal and financial advisors. These service providers are authorized to use your personal information only as necessary to provide the services they have been contracted to perform for us.
In connection with investment opportunities, we may share information about founders and their companies with our limited partners, co-investors, and advisors for investment evaluation purposes. We require such parties to maintain the confidentiality of information shared with them.
We may disclose personal information when required to do so by law, court order, regulatory request, or other legal process. We may also disclose information when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Syntract, our employees, or others.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will provide notice of any such transfer and the privacy choices available to you.
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. For investment inquiries and pitches that do not result in an investment, we typically retain information for a period of five years, after which information is deleted or anonymized unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law.
For information associated with actual investments, we retain information for the duration of the investment relationship and for a period of ten years thereafter, as required by securities regulations applicable to registered investment advisors.
We implement and maintain reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, modification, or destruction. These safeguards include encryption of data in transit using TLS, access controls that limit personal information access to employees and contractors with a legitimate business need, regular security reviews of our systems and processes, and contractual requirements for service providers to maintain comparable security standards.
Despite these safeguards, no data transmission over the internet or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please notify us immediately using the contact information provided in Section 10.
