Who we are
This website is run by Kickstart Global, based in London, UK. For anything about your data, email london@kickstartglobal.com.
What we collect
Founder perks sign-in. If you request a sign-in link on the perks page, we process your email address to send the link and to check it against our list of approved Kickstart founders. Sign-in is handled by our database provider, Supabase.
Site analytics. Our hosting provider records basic, aggregated usage data (pages viewed, referrer, browser and country) so we can see how the site is used. We don't use advertising trackers.
Fellows and network. The site lists Kickstart fellows, alumni companies and people in our network, using information they've shared with us for that purpose. If you're listed and want something changed or removed, email us and we'll act on it promptly.
Applications and newsletter sign-ups happen on third-party services (Google Forms and Substack), which have their own privacy policies.
Why and how long
We use this data to run the programme and this website, on the basis of our legitimate interests or your consent. We keep it only as long as it's needed for that purpose, and we never sell it.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can ask to access, correct or delete your personal data, or object to how we use it. Email us and we'll respond within one month. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
