Privacy & Data Policy

Transparency is the foundation of our archive as we are committed to protecting your privacy at Shark Tank Curated. We outline exactly how we manage startup metrics, business data, and individual user preferences.

General User Data

For regular visitors browsing the archive, we prioritize anonymity. We use industry-standard tools to understand site performance and support our research operations.

Analytics & Optimization

We use Google Analytics to monitor traffic patterns and improve data accessibility. This involves cookies that track non-identifiable interaction data.

Google AdSense

To keep our archive free, we display ads via Google AdSense. These use the 'Doubleclick' cookie to serve relevant ads based on your visit to this and other sites.

Business Partner Records

Company Metrics

For verified business users, we securely store the following to maintain your archive presence:

  • • Registered Company Name & HQ Location
  • • Date of Incorporation & Business Start/End Dates
  • • Association Details (Subscription Tier & Duration)
  • • Financial Transaction Records for Audit Compliance

Admin Profiles

We manage administrative accounts with personalized preferences to optimize the dashboard experience:

  • System Preferences: Language, Timezone, and Currency.
  • Notification Control: Transactional, Informational, and Promotional settings.
  • Delivery Channels: Email and Mobile notification choices.

Data Retention Policy

90-Day Audit Period

If a business user decides to offboard, we retain personal and transactional information for exactly 90 days. This window is strictly for internal audit purposes and resolving pending historical queries.

Post-Offboarding Scrub

After 90 days, we permanently delete all personal and sensitive user data. We retain only non-identifiable business logistics (e.g., Company Name and Transactional History) for historical archive integrity.

Architectural Security

User credentials and business records are protected via Bcrypt 12-round hashing and server-side session management. We do not sell data to 3rd parties; all stored info is strictly for platform functionality.
