1. Introduction

Welcome to Parvenu Fundraising, Inc.

Parvenu Fundraising, Inc (“us”, “we”, or “our”) operates https://parvenu.io (hereinafter referred to as “Service”).

Our Privacy Policy governs your visit to https://parvenu.io and your use of our web app, API, browser extension and Claude connector, and explains how we collect, safeguard and disclose information that results from your use of our Service. It also explains how we handle the business contact information of professionals who are not our customers (see Who This Policy Covers).

We use your data to provide and improve Service. By using Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, the terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions.

Our Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern all use of our Service and together with the Privacy Policy constitutes your agreement with us (“agreement”).

6. Business Contact Data (People Who Are Not Our Customers)

Parvenu is a B2B data service. We hold information about people in their professional capacity and make it available to our customers so they can find companies and the right business contacts to approach.

We do not knowingly collect special-category data (such as health, religion, political opinions or sexual orientation), government identifiers, or financial account details about people in our database.

What it is used for

Our customers use Business Contact Data to research companies, identify relevant business contacts, and contact them about products and services relevant to their role. Customers agree in our Terms of Service to use it lawfully, including honouring opt-outs and applicable marketing laws.

7. Where Business Contact Data Comes From

We obtain Business Contact Data from the following sources and providers:

Source or provider	What it provides
The Companies API	Company information: name, domain, industry, size, revenue range, location, technologies, industry codes and similar companies.
LeadMagic	Work email addresses and email verification.
Email-finder service on the RapidAPI marketplace	Work email addresses found from a name and company domain.

Our own records	Details previously obtained from the sources above and stored in our database.

Provider	Feature	Data sent
OpenAI	Personalize / Write with AI	The customer’s prompt and, for list columns, the row fields the prompt refers to.
Perplexity	Research with AI, company news	The customer’s research question, or a company name or domain.

9. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR and UK GDPR)

(a) Customers: we process your account and usage data to perform our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b)), to meet legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c)), and for our legitimate interests in running and improving the Service (Art. 6(1)(f)). Marketing and advertising cookies rely on your consent where the law requires it (Art. 6(1)(a)).
(b) Business Contact Data: we rely on legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): our interest, and our customers’ interest, in business-to-business prospecting. We have assessed that this does not override the rights of the people concerned because we limit the data to professional information, people can reasonably expect to be contacted about matters relevant to their role, and everyone can object, opt out or have their record deleted at any time, free of charge. A summary of our legitimate interests assessment is available on request.

10. Use of Data

Parvenu Fundraising, Inc uses the collected data for various purposes:

(a) to provide and maintain our Service;
(b) to notify you about changes to our Service;

(m) for any other purpose with your consent.

11. Retention of Data

We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

We keep Business Contact Data while it is current and useful for business-to-business prospecting. Records that have not been updated or used for 24 months are deleted. When someone asks us to delete their record, we delete it and keep only the minimum needed to make sure it is not added again (their blocked identifiers).

We will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.

12. Transfer of Data

Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to – and maintained on – computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.

If you are located outside United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including Personal Data, to United States and process it there.

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.

Parvenu Fundraising, Inc will take all the steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your Personal Data will take place to an organisation or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data and other personal information.

13. Disclosure of Data

We may disclose personal information that we collect, or you provide:

(a) Business Transaction.

If we or our subsidiaries are involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, your Personal Data may be transferred.

(b) Business Contact Data provided to our customers.

Making Business Contact Data available to our customers is the core of our Service. Under California law this may be a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. You can opt out at any time; see Your Rights and How to Use Them.

(c) Other cases.

We may disclose your information also:

(i) to our subsidiaries and affiliates;
(ii) to contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business, including those listed in Where Business Contact Data Comes From, AI and Processing Providers and Service Providers;

14. Security of Data

The security of your data is important to us but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Whether or not you are a Parvenu customer, you can:

(a) Opt out of our selling or sharing your data, or object to our processing it;
(b) Delete your record from our database and from our customers’ lists in Parvenu;
(c) See the data we hold about you and where it came from;
(d) Correct data that is wrong.

How to make a request

Opt out or delete: use our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information form. No account is needed. We email you a link to confirm the request; once confirmed, your identifiers are blocked immediately so they are not returned to customers or added to new lists, and deletion is completed across our systems.
See or correct your data: email patrick@parvenu.io with your name and the email addresses, phone numbers or profile links you want us to search for.

We verify requests by confirming control of the email address you give us. We respond within one month (GDPR and UK GDPR) or 45 days (CCPA), and tell you if we need more time as the law allows. An authorised agent may make a request for you by emailing us with your signed permission. We will not discriminate against you for using any of these rights.

If you are in the EU or UK you also have the right to complain to your data protection authority.

17. Your Data Protection Rights under the California Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivable the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy.

According to CalOPPA we agree to the following:

(a) users can visit our site anonymously;
(b) our Privacy Policy link includes the word “Privacy”, and can easily be found on the page specified above on the home page of our website;
(c) users will be notified of any privacy policy changes on our Privacy Policy Page;
(d) users are able to change their personal information by emailing us at patrick@parvenu.io.

Our Policy on “Do Not Track” Signals:

We honor Do Not Track signals and do not track, plant cookies, or use advertising when a Do Not Track browser mechanism is in place. Do Not Track is a preference you can set in your web browser to inform websites that you do not want to be tracked.

You can enable or disable Do Not Track by visiting the Preferences or Settings page of your web browser.

18. Your Data Protection Rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you are entitled to learn what data we collect about you, ask to delete your data and not to sell (share) it. To exercise your data protection rights, you can make certain requests and ask us:

(b) To delete your personal information.

If you make this request, we will delete the personal information we hold about you as of the date of your request from our records and direct any service providers to do the same. In some cases, deletion may be accomplished through de-identification of the information. If you choose to delete your personal information, you may not be able to use certain functions that require your personal information to operate.

If you submit a request to stop selling your personal information, we will stop selling it. To opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, use our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information form.

(iii) Account, usage and payment information about our customers: collected from you and your device; not sold.

We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of anyone under 16.

California Delete Request and Opt-out Platform

California residents can also use the state’s Delete Request and Opt-out Platform (DROP), run by the California Privacy Protection Agency, to ask all registered data brokers to delete their personal information.

Please note, if you ask us to delete or stop selling your data, it may impact your experience with us, and you may not be able to participate in certain programs or membership services which require the usage of your personal information to function. But in no circumstances, we will discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

To exercise your California data protection rights described above, please send your request(s) by one of the following means:

By email: patrick@parvenu.io
Online: https://www.parvenu.io/legal/do-not-sell

We respond to verified requests within 45 days.
