Privacy Policy

About this policy

This policy explains how information is handled when you visit Elucidate Ventures at https://www.elucidate.ventures or contact us. The site is operated by Elucidate Ventures LLC, which is responsible for deciding how and why personal information described in this policy is used.

Information we collect

Elucidate Ventures does not currently offer user accounts, accept comments or payments, or collect information through forms on this site. We do not use advertising trackers or third-party analytics tools, but we do use the analytics provided with ChatGPT Sites.

Information may still be handled in two limited ways:

• Information you choose to send us. If you contact us by email, we receive the contact details, message, and other information you include. If you call us, we may receive your phone number and any information you share during the conversation.
• Routine technical information. OpenAI, which hosts this site through ChatGPT Sites, may process information needed to deliver, secure, measure, and operate the site, such as IP address, device and browser details, requested pages, timestamps, referral information, and cookies or similar technologies. ChatGPT Sites provides us with analytics about site use, such as visits and page views.

How we use information

We use personal information only as reasonably necessary to:

• respond to inquiries and communicate with you;
• consider or provide services you request;
• maintain appropriate business and legal records; and
• understand how the site is used through ChatGPT Sites analytics; and
• protect, operate, and improve the site.

Where laws such as the UK or EU GDPR apply, we generally rely on our legitimate interests in operating our business, responding to inquiries, and protecting the site; taking steps at your request before entering into a contract; and compliance with legal obligations. If we ask for consent for a new use, you may withdraw it at any time.

Cookies and similar technologies

We do not add third-party advertising or analytics cookies. OpenAI may use cookies or similar technologies to provide, secure, operate, and measure the site, including to support ChatGPT Sites analytics. Where applicable law requires consent for a technology that is not strictly necessary, the relevant consent controls should be provided before it is used. We will update this policy if the site begins using additional tracking technologies.

When information is shared

We may share personal information:

• with OpenAI, which hosts and operates the site on our behalf and may engage its own service providers in providing ChatGPT Sites;
• with service providers we engage directly to support our communications or business operations;
• when required or permitted by law, or to protect rights, safety, and security;
• in connection with a business transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards; or
• when you direct us to share it or otherwise consent.

We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Third-party services and links

This site links to services operated by others, including LinkedIn, Substack, email and telephone applications, and other Elucidate properties. When you follow a link or use one of those services, that provider handles information under its own privacy policy. Their practices are not controlled by Elucidate Ventures LLC.

Retention and security

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including to respond to you, maintain business records, resolve disputes, and meet legal obligations. The period depends on the nature of the information and the relationship. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

International processing

OpenAI and service providers it uses may process information in countries other than the one where you live. Our use of ChatGPT Sites, including applicable data-protection safeguards, is governed by our agreement with OpenAI and any OpenAI Data Processing Addendum that applies to our account. ChatGPT Sites does not currently support data or inference residency.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or receive a copy of your personal information; object to certain processing; withdraw consent; or appeal a decision about a request. You may also have the right to complain to a local data protection authority. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

Children

This site is intended for a general business and adult audience. It is not directed to children under 13 or under the applicable age of digital consent, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the site or our information practices change. The effective date above will show when the latest version took effect.
