Privacy Policy
Data protection notice
VALUEX AG (“Our”, “We” or “Us”) welcomes you to our website (the “Online Offers”). This notice explains how we handle your data when you use our services, visit our website, or interact with us — including through our rating and Selection process, the Investors Club, ecosystem partnerships, customer service, events and direct conversations.
01We respect your privacy
We describe what we do with your data when you access our website, obtain services from us, or otherwise deal with us. Where appropriate we provide a just-in-time notice for additional processing. If you share data about others (for example, your project team members), you confirm that you are authorized to do so and that the data is accurate, and that those individuals have been informed of this notice.
02Data controller
VALUEX AG, Vienna office:
Währinger Straße 24/33, 1090 Wien, Austria
Email: enquiries@valuex.at
03Personal data, purposes and legal basis
We process data across three roles:
| Role | Data | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Investors | Name, email, phone, social profile, company / sector, voluntary CV | To contact you, verify your profile and serve the Investors Club. |
| Project owners | Contact details, project & data-room URLs, pitch deck / white paper and “Apply for listing” details | To evaluate, assess and score your project within our rating process. |
| Website visitors | Server log data (IP, referrer URL, browser / OS, timestamps, status codes) | Security and service integrity. |
Legal bases: GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) legitimate interest of the controller, and Art. 6(1)(b) performance of a contract.
04Data transfer
We transfer personal data to other controllers only where required for a contract, justified by a legitimate interest, legally required, or with your consent. We use carefully selected service providers (hosting, programming, marketing) bound to confidentiality. Transfers outside the EEA take place only where an appropriate level of protection is ensured or you have consented.
05Storage and retention
We store your data for as long as needed to provide our services or where we have a legitimate interest, after which it is deleted — except where statutory retention periods (tax / commercial) apply.
06Cookies and tracking
We distinguish technically required cookies from optional analytics and marketing mechanisms. Tools may include Google Analytics (Google Ireland Ltd) and the LinkedIn Insight Tag (LinkedIn Ireland) — these may involve transfers outside the EEA.
07Plugins
Social plugins (X, LinkedIn, Telegram) are inactive by default and connect to the provider only when you activate them.
08External links
Our pages may link to third-party sites (such as project websites). We are not responsible for the data processing of third parties.
09Security
We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures, continuously improved in line with technological progress, to protect your data.
10Your rights
You have the right to information and access, rectification and erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection (including to direct marketing and to processing based on legitimate interest), withdrawal of consent, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise your rights, contact us using the details in section 02.
