Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 29, 2026

Threshold, Inc. ("Threshold," "we," "us," or "our") operates a partnership intake and evaluation platform used by brands to review and assess inbound partnership requests.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information when you visit our marketing website, use our services, or submit information through our platform — including information submitted by individuals located in the European Union (EU), United Kingdom (UK), Canada, Australia, and other jurisdictions.

1. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected when you visit Threshold-controlled web pages, including our marketing website, and when you submit information through partnership intake forms hosted on Threshold-controlled web pages, even if accessed via a link on a third-party website.

For purposes of applicable data protection law, Threshold acts as an independent data controller with respect to information collected through our website and hosted intake forms.

2. Website Analytics and Cookies

We use analytics and session recording tools on our marketing website to understand how visitors use our site and to improve our products and services.

We partner with Microsoft to use Microsoft Clarity on our marketing website. Clarity captures how you use and interact with our site through behavioral metrics, heatmaps, and session replays. Website usage data is collected using first- and third-party cookies and similar tracking technologies. We use this information to understand site usage, improve our products and services, and optimize the site experience. We configure session recording tools to mask sensitive input fields where possible.

We also use Google Analytics to measure traffic and engagement on our marketing site, and Vercel Analytics to measure page performance.

We may use Meta Pixel and the Meta Conversions API to measure advertising performance, understand whether visitors submit demo or access requests, and improve the relevance of our marketing. These tools may use cookies and similar technologies and may receive event data such as page views, conversion events, browser information, IP address, referral information, and hashed contact information when you submit a form.

By using our marketing website, you agree that Threshold and our analytics and advertising measurement providers may collect and use analytics and event data as described in this policy.

For more information about how Microsoft collects and uses your data, visit the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

If you are located in the EU or UK, we process analytics data based on our legitimate interest in understanding and improving our website, unless applicable law requires consent.

3. Information We Collect

When you submit a partnership request through our platform, we may collect:

  • Full name
  • Email address
  • Business or company name
  • Social media handles
  • Website URL
  • Country or location
  • Any additional information you voluntarily provide
  • Publicly available information associated with the social media profiles you provide

When you visit our marketing website, we and our analytics providers may automatically collect information such as pages viewed, interactions, device and browser type, approximate location, and referral source through cookies and similar technologies, as described in Section 2.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data such as health information, biometric data, or government identification numbers.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use personal information to:

  • Evaluate potential partnership opportunities
  • Analyze brand fit and suitability
  • Conduct research on publicly available social media content
  • Communicate regarding your submission
  • Maintain internal business records
  • Improve our partnership evaluation processes
  • Understand and improve our marketing website
  • Comply with legal obligations

5. Automated Analysis and Decision-Making

We use automated systems to analyze submitted information and associated publicly available social media profiles to assess potential partnership fit.

This analysis may include evaluation of content themes, audience characteristics, engagement patterns, and brand alignment indicators.

Automated analysis may influence whether a submission progresses to further review. However, final partnership decisions may also involve human review.

If you are located in the EU or UK, you may have the right to request human review of certain automated decisions.

6. Legal Basis for Processing (EU and UK Residents)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your personal data under one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) in evaluating partnership inquiries and assessing brand fit
  • Legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) in understanding and improving our marketing website
  • Pre-contractual steps (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR) where your submission relates to potential commercial collaboration

Our legitimate interest includes reviewing and evaluating partnership opportunities in a structured and efficient manner, and understanding how visitors use our website so we can improve it.

7. International Data Transfers

Personal information submitted through our platform is stored and processed in the United States.

If you are located outside the United States, including in the EU or UK, your personal information will be transferred to the United States, which may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.

Analytics and advertising measurement providers such as Microsoft, Google, and Meta may also process website usage data in the United States or other countries where they operate.

Where required under applicable law, we implement appropriate safeguards for international data transfers, including contractual protections designed to ensure that personal information remains protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

8. Data Retention

We retain partnership submission data for as long as necessary to:

  • Evaluate and manage partnership opportunities
  • Maintain business records
  • Improve our evaluation systems

Unless deletion is requested, we may retain submitted information indefinitely for internal recordkeeping and analysis purposes.

Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of the relevant analytics providers.

You may request deletion of your information at any time. See Section 12.

9. Subprocessors and Service Providers
