Our Policy

Welcome to the web site www.arondevelopers.com (the “Site”) owned and operated by Aron Developers, Inc. (hereinafter, “Aron Developers”, “we”, “us”, and/or “our”). This Privacy Policy has been created to provide information about our company and its financial matchmaking services (the “Services”) to all visitors of the Site and the users of the Services provided thereon, including, but not limited to, investment managers offering an investment (the “Issuer”) and investors using the site to invest (in each case, a “User”, and collectively, “Users”). This Privacy Policy sets forth Aron Developers’ policy with respect to information, including personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”), and other information that is collected from Users.

By using the Site and/or Services, you accept the practices and terms set forth in our Privacy Policy as it may be updated from time to time in Aron Developers’ sole and absolute discretion.

By voluntarily providing us with Personal Information, you are giving Aron Developers permission to use and store it consistent with this Privacy Policy. We may also obtain your personal information from your transactions with us or other Users through the Services, or from third parties such as credit reporting agencies. If we combine or associate information from other sources with personal information that you provide directly to us through or in connection with the Services, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Non-Identifying Information. As is the case with most websites, when you visit the Site or interact with Aron Developers through the Site or Services (and whether or not you register for access to the Services), we receive, automatically track and store certain non-identifying information about you, including but not limited to:

  • browser type;

  • URL traffic to, through and from the Site;
  • types of computers and operating systems accessing the Site;
  • statistical information about behavior of visitors/users to the Site; and

This information, which may be collected passively using various technologies or through other means, cannot be used to specifically identify you. Aron Developers may store such information itself or such information may be included in databases owned and maintained by Aron Developers affiliates, agents or service providers. The Site may use such information and pool it with other information for administrative purposes, to assess the usage, value and performance of our products and services, to improve your experience with the Services and to track, for example, how our Users use and interact with the Services.
