Trust & Privacy

How FounderIQ handles your data

This page describes the practical data, AI, and privacy posture for FounderIQ. It does not make formal legal compliance claims. For full policy text, see the BPM Brands Policies Hub.

Data we collect

  • Intake answers you submit (stored to generate your Snapshot or Diagnostic).
  • Account information when you sign in (email, name).
  • Payment metadata from Stripe (we never see card details).
  • Anonymous usage events when analytics consent is granted.

Why we collect it

To generate readiness outputs you asked for, to deliver paid reports, to keep your account secure, and (with your permission) to improve the product.

AI and automated assistance

FounderIQ uses AI to summarize, classify, and generate drafts from your intake. AI outputs can be incomplete or wrong. FounderIQ is not legal, tax, accounting, HR, fundraising, or investment advice, and it does not predict founder success or guarantee outcomes.

Product profile vs. CanonIQ

FounderIQ may build a lightweight product profile to make your experience more useful. That is not the same as your full CanonIQ personal context profile. FounderIQ collects lightweight signals only and never reveals full CanonIQ outputs.

Sensitive data

We do not send raw intake content, names, emails, phone numbers, or full report bodies to analytics. We do not infer sensitive identity, health, legal, or financial status categories from your intake.

Your rights — access, correction, deletion, export
