Who we are

Pygma LLC is an accelerator and early-stage fund for Latin American founders building in fintech and applied AI, with teams in New York, São Paulo and Bogotá. Pygma LLC is responsible for the personal data described in this policy.

What we collect

  • Information you send us. When you apply to the cohort, the Tailored Program, the First Check fund, the Fellowship, or reach out as a partner, we receive what you write in the form: for example your name, email, LinkedIn, company details, traction, deck links and answers to our questions.
  • Technical data. Like any website, our hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested and time) to keep the site secure and running.
  • Preferences on your device. We store a couple of small settings in your own browser, such as light or dark mode. They never leave your device. See Cookies.

We don't run analytics or advertising trackers on this website, and we don't buy data about you from third parties.

How we use it

  • To review your application, get back to you and, if there's a fit, run the program with you.
  • To evaluate investment opportunities for our fund.
  • To invite you to events and share updates you asked for. You can opt out anytime.
  • To keep the website secure and working.

Founder profiles on Demo Week and the Portfolio are published only with the founders' agreement, as part of the program. We never publish founders' email addresses.

We don't sell or rent your personal data.

Who we share it with

We share data only with the service providers that help us run Pygma, and only for that purpose:

We may introduce you to investors, mentors or partners when that is part of the program and you agree to it. We may also disclose data if the law requires it.

Some of these providers are based in the United States, so your data may be processed outside your country. We work with providers that protect it with appropriate safeguards.

How long we keep it

We keep application data for as long as we need it to evaluate it and to consider you for future cohorts or investments. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under Colombia's Law 1581 of 2012, Mexico's federal data protection law, Brazil's LGPD, the EU and UK GDPR, or California law), you can:

  • Ask what personal data we have about you and get a copy.
  • Correct it or ask us to delete it.
  • Object to or limit how we use it, and withdraw consent you gave us.
  • Complain to your local data protection authority.
