Who we are
Humanipo ("Humanipo", "we", "us") runs humanipo.app and the application process for founders. For the personal data described here, Humanipo is the data controller.
If you have a question about this policy or your data, write to us at the address in section 12.
What we collect
When you apply, we collect the answers you give us:
When you visit the site, we collect basic technical data: device and browser type, pages viewed, approximate location from your IP address, and the referring page.
When you contact us, we keep the messages you send.
We do not ask for and do not want sensitive data such as health information, religious beliefs, government ID numbers or payment card details during the application.
How we use it
- To review your application and decide whether to invite you.
- To contact you about your application, and about Humanipo if you have asked us to.
- To check eligibility, including that you are 18 or older.
- If you later invest or raise through Humanipo, to run identity, accreditation and anti-money-laundering checks that the law requires.
- To run, secure and improve the site, and to prevent fraud and abuse.
- To meet our legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use your application answers to train AI models.
Legal bases
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on:
- Consent for reviewing your application, which you give on the last question. You can withdraw it at any time.
- Legitimate interests for keeping the site secure and understanding how it is used.
- Legal obligation where the law requires us to keep or disclose information.
How long we keep it
We keep application data for 24 months after your last contact with us, so we can consider you again in a later intake. Site analytics are kept for up to 14 months. You can ask us to delete your data earlier at any time.
International transfers
Our providers may process data outside your country, including in the United States. Where data leaves the UK or the European Economic Area, we use approved safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
Security
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access is limited to the people who need it. No system is perfectly secure. If a breach affects you, we will tell you and the relevant authorities as the law requires.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you can ask us to:
- Give you a copy of the data we hold about you.
- Correct data that is wrong.
- Delete your data.
- Stop or limit how we use it, or object to a use.
- Send your data to you or another service in a portable format.
- Withdraw consent, without affecting what we did before you withdrew it.
California residents also have the right to know what we collect and to not be discriminated against for exercising their rights. We do not sell or share personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising.
To use any of these rights, email us. We reply within 30 days. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
Cookies
We use essential cookies to make the site work, and privacy-friendly analytics to count visits. We ask for your permission before using any non-essential cookies, and you can change your choice at any time.
Age
Humanipo is for people 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger. If you tell us you are under 18 during the application, we stop and do not keep your answers.
