This Privacy Policy explains how Ignyte ("we", "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our service at ignytes.today (the "Service").

1. Information we collect

  • Account data: name, email, password (hashed), and optional profile fields you provide (role, skills, idea description).
  • Content you create: pitches, traction metrics, messages, posts, team data, and any other content you upload.
  • Usage data: pages visited, features used, IP address, browser, device, and approximate location.
  • Cookies: session cookies for authentication and analytics. See our Cookie Policy.

2. How we use it

  • To provide and operate the Service.
  • To send transactional emails (verification, password resets, notifications).
  • To improve features and detect abuse.
  • To match you with co-founders or community members when you opt in.

3. AI processing

Some features (Investor Sim, AI Advisor, Idea Lab, Pitch Builder) send the content you provide to third-party AI models for processing. Do not submit information you would not want processed by an AI provider.

Subject to your jurisdiction (including GDPR / CCPA), you have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. Contact us at abdullahimohamoud81@gmail.com.
