Privacy Policy | Launch Capital

Effective October 5, 2026

1. Who we are

Launch Capital Inc. ("Launch Capital", "we", "us") is a Toronto, Ontario venture capital firm and family office. This policy explains what personal information we collect through launchcapital.ca (the "Site"), how we use it and the choices you have. We handle personal information in accordance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).

2. Information we collect

We collect information in three ways:

Information you give us. When you send a pitch, contact us or use a founder resource, you may provide your name, email address, company name, website, role, and details about your business, funding needs and traction. Please do not include sensitive personal information such as government identification or financial account numbers.
Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, our analytics tools record technical and usage information such as your approximate location, device and browser type, pages viewed, referring site and time spent. This is collected using cookies and similar technologies.
Information from correspondence. If you email us or we follow up on a pitch, we keep a record of that correspondence.

3. How we use information

To review pitches and decide whether to respond, meet or invest.
To reply to your questions and requests.
To provide the founder tools and resources and, where you have given your email, to send related material about Launch Capital and resources for founders. You can opt out at any time.
To understand how the Site is used and improve it, and to keep it secure.
To meet legal and regulatory obligations.

We do not sell personal information.

4. Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics to measure Site traffic. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect usage information, which Google processes on our behalf. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or install Google's browser add-on to opt out of Google Analytics. Blocking cookies may affect how some parts of the Site work.

5. Service providers

We use trusted third parties to operate the Site and our business, including Webflow (website hosting and form processing), Google (analytics and email), and HubSpot (customer relationship management for tracking pitches and founder inquiries). These providers may process information on our behalf and only for the purposes we direct.

6. Sharing and disclosure

We share personal information only with our service providers as described above, with professional advisors bound by confidentiality, where you ask us to (for example, an introduction to a co-investor), or where required by law or to protect our rights. If our business is reorganized or sold, information may transfer to the successor, subject to this policy.

7. Where information is stored

Our service providers may store or process information outside Canada, including in the United States. Information held in another country may be accessible to courts, law enforcement and national security authorities there under local law.

8. How long we keep information

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above or as the law requires. Pitch and inquiry records are kept while we may reasonably follow up, then deleted or anonymized.

9. Your choices and rights

You may ask to access the personal information we hold about you, correct it, withdraw your consent, or have it deleted, subject to legal limits. You can unsubscribe from any marketing message using the link in the message or by contacting us. To make a request, use our contact page. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

10. Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Children

The Site is intended for business use and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date above shows when it was last changed. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
