Privacy
Starnest collects only the information you provide directly — through applications, contact channels, and program participation. We never sell your data.
Application data is reviewed only by the Starnest team and never shared outside the company without your explicit consent.
You can request access, correction, or deletion of your data at any time by emailing privacy@starnest.ai.
We use a small set of privacy-respecting analytics providers to understand site usage in aggregate. No personally identifying information is shared with third parties.
Terms
By using starnest.ai you agree to these terms. Starnest provides this site, its programs, and any associated services on an as-is basis.
Content on this site — copy, design, code, identity — is the property of Starnest, Inc. unless otherwise noted. Portfolio brand marks belong to their respective owners.
Applications, feedback, and submissions you provide remain yours. By submitting them you grant Starnest a non-exclusive, revocable license to evaluate them for the purposes of admission and ecosystem participation.
Starnest is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of this site or our services.
Security
We treat security as a first-class product surface. Our platform runs on hardened cloud infrastructure with TLS in transit, encryption at rest, and isolated environments per workload.
We follow least-privilege principles for internal access, with mandatory review for any change touching production data.
If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please contact security@starnest.ai. We respond within 24 hours and operate a coordinated disclosure policy.
Trust
Trust is the foundation of an ecosystem. Founders trust us with their early ideas. Talent trusts us with their careers. Partners trust us with capital. We honor that.
We are transparent about how decisions are made, who reviews applications, and how we handle your information. Every team member at Starnest is accountable to that standard.
If you ever feel something falls short, write to trust@starnest.ai — it goes directly to leadership.
