Who this policy covers
This policy applies to groundworkimpact.com and the forms and services offered on it by Groundwork Impact (“Groundwork,” “we,” “us” or “our”). It does not govern websites operated by other organizations, even when this site links to them.
Information we collect
Information you provide
Depending on how you use the site, you may provide your email address, name, business or venture name, website or LinkedIn profile, launch or business priorities, referral source, and other information you choose to include in a form, email or scheduling request.
Information collected automatically
Our hosting and form providers may process technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, such as your IP address, browser and device information, referring page, pages requested, timestamps, form-submission metadata, and security or fraud signals.
How we use information
- To deliver requested resources, including the Launch Assumption Checklist.
- To manage newsletter subscriptions and send requested Groundwork updates.
- To respond to questions, applications, waitlist requests and booking inquiries.
- To assess fit for Founder Momentum or other Groundwork services.
- To operate, secure, troubleshoot and improve the website and its forms.
- To meet legal obligations and protect Groundwork’s rights.
Groundwork does not sell personal information. We do not use personal information submitted through this site for third-party targeted advertising.
Service providers
We use service providers to operate the website and process information on our behalf:
- HubSpot hosts forms, stores contact records and supports email communications. See HubSpot’s Privacy Policy.
- Netlify hosts and delivers the website and may process server and security logs. See Netlify’s Privacy Statement.
- Google reCAPTCHA helps protect embedded forms from abuse. Its use is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, or as part of a business transfer. We do not authorize service providers to use submitted information for their own unrelated marketing.
Cookies and similar technologies
Groundwork does not currently place advertising pixels on this site. Embedded HubSpot forms, reCAPTCHA and hosting infrastructure may use cookies or similar technologies for form functionality, security, fraud prevention and service operation. Your browser controls can be used to limit cookies, although doing so may affect form functionality.
Email choices
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in an email. You may still receive messages necessary to deliver a resource you requested, respond to you, or administer an active service relationship.
Retention
We keep information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, to maintain required suppression records after an unsubscribe, and to satisfy legal, accounting or security obligations. Retention periods vary based on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
Your choices and privacy requests
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information, or to object to or restrict certain uses. To make a request, email liz@groundworkimpact.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
Children’s privacy
This site and Groundwork’s services are intended for business users and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Security and international processing
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Groundwork and its service providers are based in or operate from the United States, so information may be processed in the United States or other countries where those providers operate.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the website, services or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top of this page will be updated when changes are published.
