Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information NY Startup Funding ("we," "us") (operated by Funded and Running) collects when you use nystartupfunding.com, how we use it, and your choices.
Information We Collect
- Information you send us. If you use our contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address, and anything else you include, such as your phone number, city, and message. Form submissions are delivered to our email inbox.
- Technical information. Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically logs basic data such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the time of your visit.
- Cookies and analytics. We use essential cookies and may use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the site. See our cookie policy.
We do not collect funding applications, Social Security numbers, bank details, or credit reports on this site.
When You Click to Our Funding Partner
Referral links take you to our funding partner's website. Anything you submit there, including your application and credit report, is collected by that partner under its own privacy policy, not this one. The partner may use cookies to record that you came from our site so we can be credited for the referral.
