Internely Privacy Policy Last updated: April 30, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Internely collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal information when you use our website, platform, recommendations, generated messages, and related services.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with it, you should not use Internely.

Business registration: [INSERT KVK NUMBER ONCE AVAILABLE] Contact email: [INSERT PRIVACY EMAIL] For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, "Internely," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the operator of Internely.

2. What Internely does Internely helps students identify companies that may be relevant for internship networking and early- career opportunities. The platform may allow users to upload a CV, select target industries, indicate location preferences, receive company-level recommendations, receive fit analysis, and generate outreach drafts. Internely is currently intended for users located in the United States.

3. Information we collect from users We may collect the following information from users:

Account and contact information This may include your name, email address, login details, country/region, and account preferences.

CV, profile, and career information This may include your CV, education, university, degree, work experience, internships, skills, extracurricular activities, location preferences, target industries, target roles, and other information you choose to provide.

Uploaded documents If you upload a CV or other document, we process that document to provide recommendations, analysis, and related outputs.

Preferences and form responses This may include your selected industries, preferred locations, target companies, target roles, and ranking of business fields such as consulting, investment banking, private equity, startups, or other areas.

Generated outputs and platform activity This may include recommendations shown to you, company matches, fit analysis, outreach drafts, referral selections, messages generated for you, and your interactions with the platform.

Technical and usage information We may collect technical information such as IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, pages visited, timestamps, logs, referral source, and error data.

Communications If you contact us, we may process your email address, message content, and related communication history.

4. Professional and company data Internely may process limited public, professional, or third-party business information to identify company-level hiring signals and internship-related patterns. This may include information such as company names, roles, industries, locations, professional background signals, internship or junior-hiring signals, and other professional information relevant to company-level matching. Internely aims to use this information to produce company-level recommendations, not to create a public searchable database of individual professionals. Where possible, Internely converts profile-level inputs into company-level signals and deletes, minimizes, or restricts identifiable profile-level information after processing. Internely does not aim to display scraped individual profiles, private contact details, or full professional histories to users. If you are a professional whose information may have been processed by Internely and you want to request removal or exclusion from future processing, contact us at [INSERT PRIVACY EMAIL]. We will review and process valid requests as reasonably required by applicable law.

5. How we use information We use personal information for the following purposes: - to create and manage user accounts; - to process CVs, uploaded documents, preferences, and career information; - to generate company-level recommendations; - to provide fit analysis, internship-search guidance, and outreach drafts; - to improve recommendation quality and product performance; - to provide customer support; - to maintain security, debug errors, prevent fraud, and protect the platform; - to comply with legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations; - to enforce our Terms of Service; - to communicate with users about the service; - to improve Internely's website, product, and user experience.

6. Legal bases for processing Where applicable data protection law requires a legal basis, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases:

Contract We process user information when necessary to provide Internely, including account creation, CV processing, recommendations, and user support.

Consent We may rely on consent where you clearly authorize a specific action, such as uploading your CV, agreeing to optional communications, accepting non-essential cookies, or authorizing us to share selected information with a company for an introduction or referral. You may withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, but this does not affect processing that happened before withdrawal.

Legitimate interests We may process information where we have a legitimate interest and that interest is not overridden by your rights and freedoms. This may include improving the product, preventing abuse, securing the platform, analyzing company-level hiring signals, and using limited professional information to generate company-level recommendations.

Legal obligation We may process information where necessary to comply with tax, accounting, consumer protection, data protection, or other legal obligations.

7. AI processing Internely may use artificial intelligence systems and AI service providers to process user information and generate outputs such as recommendations, fit analysis, explanations, and outreach drafts. AI-generated outputs may be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, or unsuitable for your specific situation. Users are responsible for reviewing outputs before relying on them or sending any message. Internely does not use AI outputs to make employment decisions about users. Internely does not guarantee interviews, referrals, offers, or employment outcomes.

8. When we share information We may share personal information with the following categories of recipients:

Service providers We may share information with vendors that help us operate the service, such as hosting providers, database providers, AI providers, email tools, analytics tools, security tools, and customer support tools. These providers may process information only as needed to provide services to Internely, subject to their applicable terms and data protection commitments.

Companies selected by the user If Internely offers optional introductions or referrals, we will only share user information with a company after the user clearly authorizes us to do so. The information shared may include the user's name, CV, profile summary, experience, preferences, contact information, and other information relevant to the introduction.

Legal and safety reasons We may disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, enforce our Terms, prevent fraud or abuse, protect rights and safety, or defend legal claims.

Business transfers If Internely is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards where required.

9. International processing and transfers Internely may process and store information in countries other than the country where you live. Our service providers may be located in the United States, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions. Where required by applicable law, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers of personal information.

10. Data retention We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Typical retention practices include: - account information: kept while your account is active; - CVs and uploaded documents: kept while needed to provide the service, unless you request deletion or we have a legal reason to keep them; - generated outputs: kept as needed to provide account history, support, product improvement, and dispute handling; - technical logs: kept for a limited period for security, debugging, and abuse prevention; - professional profile-level inputs: deleted, minimized, aggregated, or restricted after company-level signals are created, where reasonably possible; - suppression records: kept as needed to honor opt-out or removal requests and avoid re-adding excluded profiles.

Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.

15. Security We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, including access controls, secure infrastructure, restricted database access, and operational safeguards.
