1. Introduction

MIDMERGERS ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and safeguard your personal information when you use our M&A intelligence platform, website, and related services (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our practices, please do not use the Services.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you create an account, complete your profile, subscribe to a plan, contact our support team, or participate in surveys. This may include your name, email address, phone number, job title, company name, billing information, and professional credentials.

We also automatically collect certain information when you use the Services, including your IP address, browser type, device identifiers, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, links clicked, and timestamps. We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect this data.

For enterprise clients, we may collect additional business contact information and usage data related to team accounts and seat assignments.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information to provide, maintain, and improve the Services; process transactions and send related confirmations and invoices; respond to your inquiries and provide customer support; send technical notices, security alerts, and administrative messages; and deliver marketing communications where permitted by law.

We analyze usage patterns to improve platform performance, develop new features, and personalize your experience. Aggregated and anonymized data may be used for industry benchmarking and research purposes.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your M&A watchlists, search history, or deal annotations for unrelated advertising purposes.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the platform, processing payments, hosting data, sending emails, or analyzing usage. These providers are contractually bound to use your data only for the services they perform for us and to maintain appropriate security measures.

We may disclose your information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request; to enforce our Terms of Service; to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public; or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

If you are part of a team or enterprise account, certain account administrators within your organization may have access to usage data and team member lists as part of account management features.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. This includes encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, regular security assessments, and employee training.

No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When your account is closed, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to access, correct, or delete your data; the right to restrict or object to certain processing; the right to data portability; and the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below. We will respond to your request within the timeframe required by applicable law. If you are in the European Economic Area, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

8. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you, remember your preferences, analyze traffic, and improve our Services. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the platform.

We use analytics tools to understand how users interact with our platform. These tools may collect information about your visits and usage patterns.

9. International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction. When we transfer personal data internationally, we implement appropriate safeguards to protect your information.
