All personal data used for analytics or commercial purposes is aggregated and anonymized to ensure no identifiable information can be traced back to individuals or businesses.

4. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data (GDPR Article 6 & CCPA)

5. How We Use Your Data

Your personal data is used for the following purposes:

• Account Management & Networking: To enable profile creation, contact sharing, and professional connections.
• Personalization: To tailor user experiences, recommendations, and displayed content.
• Service Optimization: To monitor and improve our platform's functionality and performance.
• Communications: To notify you of updates, changes to our terms, security alerts, and promotional messages (where consented).
• Legal Compliance & Security: To meet legal requirements and ensure data security and integrity.
• Facilitating Introductions via Mediators: In cases where users initiate or request connections through verified mediators, the platform supports such interactions while maintaining transparency and respecting user privacy preferences.

We may also use anonymized and aggregated data for analytics, product development, and commercial partnerships. Such data cannot identify you individually.

In compliance with CCPA, we do not "sell" your personal data in the traditional sense. However, anonymized data may be used for monetization, and you have the right to opt-out of such practices.

6. Data Sharing

We may share your personal data under strict conditions and only with:

• Other Users: Depending on your privacy settings, information such as your name and job title may be visible to other users.
• Third-party service providers: Including cloud storage, analytics, customer support, and email delivery systems. All third parties are bound by confidentiality and data protection agreements.
• Regulatory and legal authorities: Where required by law or in response to valid legal processes.
• Business Transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction.

We do not sell personal data. In the context of monetized introductions via mediators, data visibility is restricted to the information actively shared by users within the platform. Any use of anonymized and aggregated data for commercial purposes will not enable identification of individuals or businesses.

7. International Transfers

If we transfer your data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place:

• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): As approved by the European Commission.
• Adequacy Decisions: For countries recognized by the EU as providing adequate data protection.

We implement additional technical and organizational measures to ensure your data is treated securely, regardless of location.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance platform functionality and user experience. These include:

• Essential cookies: Necessary for website performance and login functionality.
• Analytics cookies: To gather usage data for performance improvement.
• Security cookies: To detect and prevent fraudulent or malicious activity.

Users can manage cookie preferences via their browser or opt-out mechanisms provided through cookie banners, where applicable.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to:

• Provide services and maintain active accounts
• Fulfill legal and contractual obligations
• Resolve disputes and enforce agreements

Inactive accounts may be anonymized or deleted after a defined retention period (e.g., 24 months). Anonymized data may be retained for research and analytics.

10. Your Rights Under GDPR and CCPA

11. Data Security

We implement robust security protocols, including:

• Data encryption in transit and at rest
• Role-based access controls
• Regular monitoring, audits, and vulnerability testing
