The information you enter about your deals and your contact details can be shared with our Partners, including on any of their platforms, with the aim of creating meaningful professional connections. We may receive information about you from our Partners, for example from Partners who host The Closing Club ads on their platforms.
This Privacy Policy applies to websites, apps, events and other services operated by TCC. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as our "services" in this privacy policy.
We want to help TCC users develop meaningful connections using the information they provide us, such as profile details and opportunity descriptions they post. We also collect information generated during the use of our services, such as access logs, browsing statistics provided by third parties. When you use our services you choose and agree to provide us with certain information. This includes opportunity data you enter into our platform. When you complete your profile, you can share additional information with us, such as interests in certain product sectors. Some of the information you choose to provide to us may be considered "special" or "sensitive" in some jurisdictions: by choosing to provide such information, you consent to our processing of that information. When you subscribe to a paid service or make a purchase directly from us, you provide our payment provider with information such as your debit or credit card number. When you participate in surveys or focus groups, you provide us with your opinions about our products and services, answers to our questions and testimonials.

We sometimes monitor or record these interactions for training purposes and to ensure high quality of service. When you use our services, we collect information about what features you have used, how you have used them, and the devices you use to access our services. We collect information such as date and time of access, features you have used, searches, clicks and pages referring to the relevant URL address.

With your consent we may collect information about your geolocation (latitude and longitude) through various means, depending on the service and device you are using, including GPS, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connections. The collection of your geolocation may occur in the background even when you are not using the Services if the permission you have granted us expressly allows such collection.

The reasons we may use your information are as follows. - Share the opportunities you have entered and your contacts with all users and with all our Partners. - Provide customer support and respond to user requests. - Manage orders and billing with our users. - Ensure a consistent experience across all user devices. - Improve our services and develop new ones. - Conduct research and analysis of user behavior to improve our services and content; develop new features and services (for example, we may decide to create a new interest-based feature following requests received from users). - Prevent, detect and combat fraud or other illegal or unauthorized activities - Address ongoing or alleged misconduct on and off the platform - Ensure legal compliance, comply with legal requirements, assist law enforcement. - Manage focus groups and surveys.

Because our goal is to help you make meaningful connections, the primary sharing of user information is with other users. We also share some users' information with service providers and partners who help us manage the services and, in some cases, legal authorities. Be careful with the information you enter and make sure you have the right for the content you share to be viewable by other users since it is your full responsibility. We cannot control what others do with your information once it is shared. We use third parties to help us operate and improve our services. These third parties assist us with various tasks, including data hosting and maintenance, analytics, customer service, marketing, advertising, payment processing and security operations. We may also share information with partners who distribute and help us advertise our services. We follow a rigorous verification process before engaging any service provider or working with any partner. All our service providers and partners must accept strict confidentiality obligations.
We may transfer your information if we are involved, in whole or in part, in a merger, sale, acquisition, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, bankruptcy, or other change of ownership or control. When required by law we may disclose your information as reasonably necessary: (i) to comply with a legal process, such as a court order, subpoena or search warrant, government/law enforcement investigation, or other legal requirements; (ii) assist in the prevention or detection of crime (subject in each case to applicable law); or (iii) to protect the safety of any person. To enforce legal rights we may also share information: (i) if disclosure would mitigate our liability in an actual or threatened lawsuit; (ii) as necessary to protect our legal rights and the legal rights of our users, business partners or other interested parties; (iii) to enforce our agreements with you; and (iv) investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or other wrongdoing. We may use and share non-personal information (i.e. information that does not identify who you are, such as device information, general demographic data, general behavioral data, geolocation in de-identified form), as well as personal information in hashed, non-human readable form, in any of the above circumstances.
Information sharing sometimes involves cross-border data transfers, for example to the United States of America and other jurisdictions. For example, where the Service allows users to be located in the European Economic Area ("EEA"), their personal information is transferred to countries outside the EEA. We use standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other appropriate safeguards to allow transfers of data from the EEA to other countries. Standard contractual clauses are commitments between companies transferring personal data, binding them to protect the privacy and security of the data.
We want you to be in control of your information, so we have provided you with the following tools. Access / update tools in the service. Account tools and settings that help you access, correct, or delete information you have provided to us that are associated with your account directly within the Service. If you have any questions about these tools and settings, please contact our customer support team at tccstaff@theclosingclub.com Device permissions. Mobile platforms have permission systems for specific types of device data and notifications, such as address book and location services, as well as push notifications. You can change the settings on your device to allow or oppose the collection of corresponding information or the display of corresponding notifications. Of course, if you do this, some services may lose full functionality. Elimination. You can delete your account using the corresponding functionality directly on the service or by writing to tccstaff@theclosingclub.com. Updating your information. If you believe that the information in our possession is inaccurate or that we no longer have the right to use it and wish to request rectification, deletion or objection to its processing, please contact us at tccstaff@theclosingclub.com. For your protection and the protection of all our users, we may ask you to provide proof of identity before we can respond to the above requests. Responsibility. In some countries, including the European Union, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority if you have concerns about how we process your personal information. The data protection authority with which you can lodge a complaint may in particular be that of your habitual residence, where you work or where we are established.
We work hard to protect you from unauthorized access to or alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information. We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks and regularly review our information collection, storage and processing practices to update our physical, technical and organizational security measures. We may suspend your use of all or part of the Services without notice if we suspect or detect a security breach. If you believe that your account or information is no longer secure, please notify us immediately by writing to tccstaff@theclosingclub.com.
We only retain your personal information as long as we need it for legitimate business purposes (i.e. making meaningful professional connections) and as permitted by applicable law. To protect the security of our users we retain data for three months after account deletion. During this period the account is not visible. Basically, we delete or anonymize your information when you delete your account or after five years of continuous inactivity, unless: - we must keep it compliant with applicable law (for example, some ?traffic data? is retained for one year to comply with legal data retention obligations); - we must retain it to demonstrate our compliance with applicable law (for example, records of consent to our Terms, Privacy Policy and other similar consents are retained for five years); - there is an outstanding problem, complaint or dispute that requires us to retain relevant information until it is resolved; - the information must be retained for our legitimate business interests, such as preventing fraud and improving user security.
Our services are limited to users 18 years of age or older. We do not allow users under the age of 18 on our platform and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18. If you suspect that a user is under 18, please report it using our contact details.
Because we are always looking for new and innovative ways to help you create meaningful connections, this policy may change over time. We will inform you whenever there are changes.
