Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

This Privacy Policy explains how Lumina Investment Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Lumina", "we", "us", or "our"), collects and uses personal information when you interact with our website and contact us. For any privacy question or request, email info@luminainvestmentgroup.com.

2. Information we collect

We only collect information you choose to share with us through our contact form or by email. This includes:

• First and last name
• Email address
• LinkedIn profile URL
• Any additional information you include in correspondence with us

Our site does not use advertising cookies or third-party analytics trackers. Standard server logs (IP address, timestamp, user agent) may be retained briefly by our hosting provider for security and abuse prevention.

3. How we use your information

We use the information you provide to:

• Respond to your inquiry and follow up personally;
• Evaluate potential fit for conversations with founders or investors;
• Send transactional emails (such as a confirmation that we received your message);
• Comply with legal obligations and prevent abuse.

We do not sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we do not use it for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

4. Legal bases (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are in the United Kingdom, European Economic Area, or Switzerland, we rely on the following legal bases under the UK GDPR and EU GDPR:

• Consent — when you voluntarily submit the contact form or email us.
• Legitimate interests — to respond to enquiries, maintain records of correspondence, and secure our website.
• Legal obligation — where we are required to retain or disclose information by law.

5. Your rights (GDPR / UK GDPR)

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, email info@luminainvestmentgroup.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority (e.g. the UK ICO or your EU member state DPA).

6. Your rights (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose; to request deletion or correction; to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information; and to be free from unlawful discrimination for exercising these rights. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA. To make a request, email info@luminainvestmentgroup.com. We will verify your request using the email address on file and, where appropriate, additional identifying information.

7. Retention

We retain the information you submit for 24 months from the date of your last interaction with us, after which it is purged from our active systems. Backups are overwritten in the ordinary course of operations. We may retain information longer where required by law or to resolve disputes.

8. Sharing and subprocessors

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate this site and communicate with you, under contractual confidentiality and data-protection obligations. Current subprocessors include our hosting and database provider and our transactional email provider. We may also disclose information where required by law.

9. International transfers

Lumina is based in the United States. If you contact us from outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers from the UK/EEA.

10. Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, including encryption in transit (TLS), access controls, and least-privilege administration. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

11. Children

This site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
