Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 11, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how mAI Depot, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use Selva at selva.vc (the “Service”). By using the Service you agree to this Policy.
1. Information We Collect
Account information. When you register, we collect your email address and authentication identifiers (for example, via Google sign-in). Authentication is handled by Google Firebase Authentication. Submissions. Content you provide, such as data corrections, edit requests, and pitch materials, including any personal or business information contained in them. Essential technical data. Our hosting and security providers process request data such as IP address, user agent, timestamps, and error information as needed to deliver and protect the Service. Optional analytics data. Only if you consent, Google Analytics collects pages viewed, actions taken, approximate location, browser and device type, and timestamps using cookies and similar technologies. Business contact data. The Service catalogs publicly available information about companies, investors, and their representatives, which may include names, roles, and professional contact details. Exact contact details are restricted to authorized administrators and are not shown to general users.2. How We Use Information
We use information to: provide, operate, secure, and improve the Service; authenticate users and manage accounts; personalize content and language; measure and analyze usage where you consent; respond to inquiries and Submissions; detect and prevent fraud and abuse; and comply with legal obligations.
3. Cookies and Analytics
Necessary storage. Selva uses local storage, IndexedDB, and where applicable cookies to remember your cookie choice, language and theme, maintain Firebase Authentication sessions, and protect the Service. These functions are necessary to provide features you request and cannot be disabled through our cookie settings. Analytics cookies. Google Analytics (GA4) is optional. Its script is not loaded and no analytics events are sent unless you grant analytics consent. If enabled, GA4 may set first-party cookies beginning with_ga to distinguish browsers and sessions. We do not use advertising cookies or enable advertising consent through this banner.
Your choice. We save your consent selection in local storage for up to 180 days so we do not ask on every visit. Use “Cookie settings” in the footer to grant, refuse, or withdraw analytics consent at any time. Withdrawal stops future collection and removes GA cookies accessible to Selva; you may also clear site data in your browser. Necessary storage remains active.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only: (a) with service providers that help us operate the Service, including Google (Firebase and, with consent, Analytics) and Cloudflare (delivery and security), under contractual confidentiality obligations; (b) to comply with law, legal process, or lawful requests, or to protect rights, safety, and the integrity of the Service; and (c) in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, in which case we will seek to ensure the recipient honors this Policy.
5. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the Service and for legitimate business or legal purposes. You may request deletion of your account information as described below; some information may be retained where required by law or for fraud prevention.
6. Security
We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information, including encryption in transit and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your Privacy Rights (including California)
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), California residents may request to know, delete, and correct personal information, and to opt out of “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA. To exercise any right, email privacy@maidepot.com. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights, and we will verify requests as required.
8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals. Analytics is denied by default for every visitor until opt-in. When the browser exposes a GPC signal, Selva keeps optional analytics disabled.
9. Children’s Privacy
The Service is intended for business and professional users and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
10. International Users
The Service is operated from the United States. If you access it from outside the United States, you understand your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and other countries with different data-protection laws.
11. Requests to Remove Business Listings
If you are a representative of a company or fund and wish to correct or request removal of information about your organization, email privacy@maidepot.com and we will review the request.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when we post the updated Policy and revise the “Last updated” date.
