Draft — under review, not yet final
Privacy Policy
Effective date: To be set to the actual date this policy is approved and published
This Privacy Policy explains how Hines Venture Group LLC ("we", "us") handles information when you visit this informational website for Openly (the "Website"). The Website only provides general information about Openly. It does not cover the future Openly mobile application, which will have its own privacy policy.
No accounts or registration
The Website has no member accounts, registration, sign-in, or forms. We do not ask you to submit personal information on the Website.
Information you send us by email
If you email us, we receive the information you choose to include, such as your name, email address, and message. We use it to respond to you and to keep a record of our correspondence. Our email is provided by Zoho Mail, which processes these messages on our behalf under its own privacy policy.
Cookies and analytics
We do not set cookies on the Website. We do not use analytics, advertising, or tracking tools on the Website, and the hosting platform's optional visitor analytics is turned off.
Hosting and technical information
The Website is built and hosted with Lovable, which serves it through Cloudflare's network. When your browser requests a page, these providers necessarily receive technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and the page requested, in order to deliver the page and protect the service. They may keep this information in technical logs under their own privacy policies (Lovable, Cloudflare). We do not control how long they keep it.
Review before publishing: we could not find documentation of the specific technical logs or retention periods that apply to visitors of sites hosted on Lovable. Confirm before publishing.
Fonts
The Website loads its typefaces from Google Fonts. To display them, your browser connects to Google's servers, which receive standard request information such as your IP address and browser details. Google's own privacy policy applies to that processing.
How we use and share information
We use information only to operate the Website and to respond to messages. We do not sell personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us operate the Website or handle email, or where required by law.
Data retention
We keep correspondence you send us for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to you, to maintain legitimate business records, and to meet applicable legal obligations. After that, it is deleted in line with the company's retention practices.
Review before publishing: no fixed retention period is stated. Confirm the company has retention practices that match this wording.
Your privacy rights
You may contact us to ask what information we hold about you from your emails, or to ask us to correct or delete it. We will respond to requests as required by applicable law. Depending on where you live, such as Virginia or other U.S. states, or the European Union or United Kingdom, you may have additional rights under local law.
Review before publishing: confirm with counsel which privacy laws apply to the Website and its visitors.
Children
The Website is publicly readable and provides general information only. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us. The future Openly application is intended for adults 18 and older.
Changes
We may update this policy. Changes will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
