Privacy policy
How Emergent Technologies handles the information you share with this site, in plain language. Last updated October 24, 2026.
What we collect.
If you request a briefing or join the consulting waitlist, we collect your full name, your work email, your organization, and, if you choose to provide them, your role, your primary use case, and a message. If you apply for a role, we collect what the section below describes. We never ask for payment details, and there are no visitor accounts to create. To limit abuse of the form, requests are rate-limited. We also collect standard analytics: page views, aggregate performance data, and anonymized session interactions used to improve the site.
What we do with it.
We use what you submit to do exactly what the form says: respond to your briefing request or waitlist signup, and contact you about it. Your submission is stored in our own systems and in the services that operate them on our behalf: our database is run by Supabase and the site is hosted on Vercel. Your contact details are also kept in the system we use to reply to and follow up with you.
We never sell your data.
We do not sell personal information for money, and we do not share it with third parties for their marketing. One practice below, visitor identification, is treated as a sale or sharing under some state privacy laws, and we explain it and how to stop it in its own section.
Analytics services.
This site uses Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights for aggregate traffic and performance measurement, Microsoft Clarity for anonymized interaction analytics such as heatmaps and session recordings, and PostHog for product analytics. We also use Impact, a partner-tracking service, to record when a visit to one of our partners started from a link on this site, so the partner can credit the referral. We use these tools to understand how the site is used and to find and fix problems, not to build advertising profiles of you. You can turn our analytics off for your device at emergenttechnologies.ai/privacy/choices, and a browser that sends a Global Privacy Control signal is honored automatically.
How long we keep it.
We keep form submissions for as long as they are useful for the purpose you submitted them: an open inquiry stays until it is resolved, and an ongoing business relationship keeps its records for as long as it lasts. If you ask us to delete your information, we delete it.
Your choices.
Every email we send includes a way to stop receiving it, and replying to any of them reaches a human. To access, correct, or delete information you've submitted, email team@emergenttechnologies.ai and we'll act on it promptly. The page at emergenttechnologies.ai/privacy/choices, linked from the footer of every page, turns our analytics off for your device and explains how to opt out of visitor identification.
If you apply for a role.
If you apply through our careers page we collect your name, email address, phone number, and the video you record, which contains your image and your voice along with whatever you choose to tell us. Applications are collected through the recruiting system we use at the time, and the recordings are held by that system's hosting provider. We use them for one purpose: assessing your application and contacting you about it. We do not use applicant video to train AI models, we do not run facial recognition or voice identification on it, and we do not derive biometric identifiers from it. A person reviews every application; no automated system rejects anyone. We keep applications for twelve months so we can consider you for later openings, and we delete them sooner the moment you ask. Because we recruit for more than one independent company and program, your application may be reviewed by and shared with those companies so we can consider you for the role that fits you best. It is not shared with anyone else. Email team@emergenttechnologies.ai to have yours removed.
Referral links.
Some links on this site are referral links, including the partner roles on our careers page. If you click one and then apply, sign up, or are hired, that partner may pay us a referral fee. It costs you nothing and it does not change what the partner offers you. When you follow a referral link, you leave this site: the partner's own terms and privacy policy cover anything you share there, and we never see your application. The partner may tell us that a referral it credits to us applied or was hired, so that it can pay the fee.
If you are in the UK or the EEA.
Emergent Technologies Inc. is the controller of the personal data described here. We rely on your consent for applications and for any marketing you opt into, on our legitimate interests for replying to enquiries, keeping the site secure, and measuring aggregate traffic, and on performance of a contract where one exists between us. You have the right to access your data, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to how we process it, receive a portable copy, and withdraw consent at any time without affecting anything done before you withdrew it. Our systems are hosted in the United States, so your data is transferred there; where the law requires a transfer mechanism we rely on the UK and EU standard contractual clauses. To exercise any of these rights, email team@emergenttechnologies.ai. You may also complain to your local supervisory authority, or to the Information Commissioner's Office if you are in the UK.
If you are in California.
In the past twelve months we have collected identifiers such as your name, email address, and phone number, professional information such as your organization, role, and use case, audio and visual information in the form of application videos, and internet activity from the analytics tools named above. We collect it from you directly and from those tools, and we use it for the purposes described in this policy. We do not sell personal information for money and we do not run cross-context behavioral advertising. The visitor identification described below, in which a third-party provider matches a visit to a business contact record, may count as a "sale" or "sharing" under the CCPA, and you can opt out of it as that section explains. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information beyond the purposes the CCPA permits. You have the right to know what we hold, to delete it, to correct it, to opt out of sale or sharing (the footer link "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" goes to emergenttechnologies.ai/privacy/choices), to limit our use of sensitive personal information, and not to be treated differently for exercising any of them. Email team@emergenttechnologies.ai and we will verify the request and act on it. An authorized agent may submit a request for you with your written permission.
Cookies.
A cookie, or a similar identifier kept in your browser, is a small piece of data a site or a service it uses stores on your device. Here is what ours do. The analytics tools named above (Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights, Microsoft Clarity, and PostHog) set cookies or similar identifiers to count visits, measure performance, and record anonymized interactions. Impact sets a partner-attribution cookie so a partner can credit a referral that started here. If you follow one of our referral links, we set a first-party cookie holding the referral code for 90 days so the referral is credited. The choice you make about analytics is kept in your browser's local storage on your device, and nothing about it is sent to us. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not run retargeting. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a request to opt out: Impact, Clarity, PostHog, and the Vercel analytics tags are not loaded at all, and the opt-out page cannot be used to turn them back on. Without that signal you can turn our analytics off for your device at emergenttechnologies.ai/privacy/choices, or block or clear cookies in your browser at any time; the site works without them. Blocking cookies does not stop the visitor identification described next, because that match is made on the provider's side and not by a cookie in your browser.
Visitor identification.
When you visit this site we may use tracking scripts, cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your visit: your IP address, the pages you view, the site you arrived from, and your approximate location, along with page views, scroll depth, clicks, file downloads, exit intent, and idle time. We pass that information to our visitor-identification providers, which compare it against their own databases of business contact records. This includes visits where you have not submitted a form. When you submit a form on this site, these scripts may also send the provider what you entered, as typed. Password fields, and fields whose names mark them as card, bank-account or ID numbers, are replaced with asterisks before anything is sent. The provider keeps a hashed (scrambled) copy of identifiers such as your email address for its own matching service. Where it finds a match, we receive personal information about you that you did not give us directly: usually your name, work email address, employer, job title and professional profile links. We use it to understand which organizations are interested in our work and to contact them about it, and we store it in our sales and marketing systems. The provider's own hashed copy is held by that provider under its own terms, separate from what it sends us. Under some privacy laws this counts as a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information, or as targeted advertising. You can stop it at any time: email team@emergenttechnologies.ai with the subject line "Do not sell or share my personal information" and we will opt you out, or access, correct or delete what we hold about you, without asking you to prove anything beyond that the address is yours. The page at emergenttechnologies.ai/privacy/choices, linked from the footer of every page, carries this request route and our analytics switch. In plain English: you can land here, type nothing, and we may still end up with a good guess at which company you work for. We would rather tell you that than have you find out when we email you. The analytics switch is stored in your browser and stops our own analytics; this matching happens on the provider's side, so it is stopped by asking us.
