Privacy Policy

At Bulwark Research, we take your privacy seriously. This policy outlines what data we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have over your information. We believe in transparency and minimal data collection.

Information We Collect

We collect only what is necessary to provide our service:

• Email address — to deliver research reports and service updates
• Startup idea descriptions — the information you submit for research validation
• Usage analytics — anonymized data about how you interact with our platform to improve service quality

How We Use Your Data

Your data serves three purposes only:

• To produce research dossiers — our autonomous agent swarm uses your startup description to conduct internet-scale research
• To deliver reports via email — we send your completed research brief to the email address you provide
• To improve service quality — anonymized and aggregated data helps us optimize research quality and delivery speed

Data Storage & Security

Your data is protected with industry-standard security measures:

• Encrypted at rest and in transit — using AES-256 and TLS 1.3
• Hosted on secure infrastructure — with SOC 2 compliant providers
• Access limited to essential personnel — on a strict need-to-know basis

What We Don't Do

Our commitments to you:

• Never sell your data — your information is not a product
• Never share with third parties — except where legally required or with your explicit consent
• Never use submissions to train AI models — your startup ideas remain confidential and are never used for model training
• Never display your ideas publicly — research submissions are private by default

Your Rights

You have full control over your data:

• Request data export — receive a copy of all data we hold about you
• Request deletion — we will permanently remove your data from our systems
• Withdraw consent at any time — opt out of communications or service usage

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@bulwark.research

Cookies

We use minimal analytics cookies to understand how users interact with our platform. We do not use advertising trackers or third-party marketing cookies. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect site functionality.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify registered users of material changes via email and update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of our service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
