Collected
Identity (name, institutional email), cohort membership, participation signals, AI companion interactions the user chose to have.
Trust · Privacy
Privacy isn't a policy. It's a charter.
Our parent, Elites Generation Foundation, Inc., is a 501(c)(3) whose charter legally forbids behavioral advertising and the sale of individual user data. This is the difference between a promise and a rule.
Data minimization
We collect less because we have to, not because it's a nice-to-have.
The Foundation's charter constrains what the subsidiary can touch. The upstream effect is a platform that simply doesn't gather data it was never going to use well.
Not collected
Browsing history outside our product. Advertising identifiers. Contact books. Photo libraries. Device sensors beyond what a feature actively needs with user consent.
Never sold
Individual user data will not be sold to anyone, for any price, under any circumstance. The Foundation charter makes this a structural rule, not a policy we could quietly change.
Rights
Every user has these rights. Institutional or individual.
End users of a deployed platform get the same data rights as any direct user of the Foundation's flagship app. Institutional administrators do not reduce them.
- Access to the personal data we hold about you.
- Portability, in a machine-readable format.
- Correction of inaccurate data.
- Deletion, subject to legal retention requirements.
- Objection to specific processing activities.
- Complaint to a supervisory authority in your jurisdiction.
What happens in an acquisition
Foundation-locked. The charter inherits.
The commercial subsidiary is wholly owned by Elites Generation Foundation. If an acquirer purchased the subsidiary, they would inherit the Services Agreement and the charter commitments that flow through it. The Foundation board does not have to agree to a change in those commitments.
For B2B buyers worried about exit scenarios, this is a real competitive advantage. The mission is held by a non-transferable charity, not by a cap table that can recapitalize at any moment.

Compared to typical vendors
How this posture differs from peers.
No company names. Just patterns a procurement team will recognize from their diligence calls.
| Dimension | Typical vendor | Elitesgen |
|---|---|---|
| Monetization of individual data | Often permitted under broad consent flows. | Structurally forbidden by parent charter. |
| Advertising ID collection | Enabled by default, buried in settings. | Not collected. |
| Third-party ad networks | Embedded in apps and tracking pixels. | Not embedded, not permitted. |
| Data use after acquisition | Policy can change with ownership. | Charter inherits. Acquirer cannot unwind. |
| Dark patterns | Common at signup, cancellation, and data export. | Not used. Export is a one-click path. |
