This Privacy Policy explains how Alpha Edge Media, Inc. ("IPO Stream", "we", "us") collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit https://ipostream.com/ (the "Site") or subscribe to the IPO Stream newsletter (together, the "Service").
IPO Stream is a free weekly educational newsletter about US IPOs. We send a weekly recap on Wednesdays and "Polly's Extras", a deep dive, on Fridays.
Alpha Edge Media, Inc. is the controller of your personal information (the organization that decides how and why it is used).
Information you give us
Information collected automatically
Payment information (only if a paid tier launches)
We do not offer paid subscriptions today. If we introduce paid subscriptions, payments will be handled by a third-party payment processor, which we will name here. We will not see or store your full card number.
We do not use your information to make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.
If the EU or UK GDPR applies to you, we rely on:
The Site, hosted by beehiiv, uses cookies and similar technologies that are needed for the Site to work, and may use others for analytics. Our emails contain tracking pixels and tracked links so we can see opens and clicks.
The Site uses cookies set by beehiiv for core functions and analytics. We do not use a cookie banner or consent tool. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. You can limit email open tracking by turning off automatic image loading in your email app.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
We share information only with service providers that help us run the Service, under contracts that limit how they can use it:
We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of the newsletter, in which case we will notify you.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
Unsubscribe anytime using the link at the bottom of every email.
To make any other request, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity. We will respond within the time the law requires and will not treat you differently for using your rights.
You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority. If you are in the EU, this is the supervisory authority in your country. If you are in the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office.
The Service is not intended for anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has subscribed, contact us and we will delete their information.
We are based in New York, United States, and beehiiv stores and processes data in the United States. Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own, which may have different privacy laws. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms, to protect your information.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures, including those provided by beehiiv, to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and update the "Last updated" date. If changes are significant, we will let subscribers know by email.
