Privacy Policy
Last updated: 19 September 2026
This website is operated by Tunc Tatlici in a personal and independent capacity. This Privacy Policy explains how information is processed when you visit and interact with this website.
Information processed when you visit the website
Like most websites, the infrastructure used to deliver this website processes standard technical information required to provide and secure the service. This may include your IP address, browser or user-agent information, requested page, request time and related technical information.
This information may be processed by the website's hosting and backend infrastructure for purposes such as website delivery, security, routing, diagnostics and protection against misuse.
The website itself does not create visitor profiles or maintain an application-level database of visitor IP addresses.
Founder Intelligence
Founder Intelligence uses lightweight first-party measurement to understand whether articles are being read and whether visitors find them useful.
The system records:
- a randomly generated pseudonymous visitor identifier;
- the relevant article;
- whether the event was an article view or a “useful” reaction; and
- the time of the event.
This system is designed to prevent duplicate counting and understand aggregate engagement with the content.
It does not create advertising profiles and does not record geolocation, browser fingerprints or device hardware profiles.
No third-party analytics or advertising service receives this information.
Mentoring disclaimer acknowledgement
Before proceeding to an external mentoring booking page, visitors are asked to acknowledge the Startup Mentorship Disclaimer.
When the acknowledgement is submitted, the website records:
- a pseudonymous visitor identifier;
- the page from which the booking was initiated; and
- the acknowledgement timestamp.
The acknowledgement does not collect your name, email address or other contact information.
Acknowledgement records are retained for up to 24 months and may then be deleted.
Calendly
Mentoring appointments are scheduled through Calendly.
Calendly is not embedded in this website. You are redirected to Calendly only when you choose to continue to its website.
Any personal information you provide when scheduling an appointment is provided directly to Calendly and is processed according to Calendly's own privacy practices.
External links
This website contains links to external websites, including LinkedIn, Calendly, startups, mentoring organisations and other resources.
When you follow an external link, you leave this website. The destination website's own privacy practices apply to your subsequent interaction with that service.
Cookies and browser storage
This website currently does not use cookies.
It does use limited first-party browser storage for functionality such as preventing duplicate article views, remembering article feedback and associating a pseudonymous identifier with mentoring disclaimer acknowledgements.
More information is available in the Privacy & Storage notice.
