1. Who we are
Aveon Partners is an independent mergers and acquisitions advisory practice at 100 Church Street, Suite 800, New York, NY 10007. Aveon Partners is a trade name of Matrx.ai, which is the legal entity behind this website and the contracting party on any engagement.
For the purposes of applicable data protection law, Matrx.ai is the controller of the personal information described in this policy. Information you submit to Aveon Partners is held by that same entity and subject to the same controls.
Questions about this policy may be sent to hello@aveonpartners.com.
2. Information we collect
Information you provide. Our contact form collects your name, email address, telephone number, the capacity in which you are contacting us, an approximate indication of scale, and whatever you choose to write in the free-text field. Applications to open roles reach us by email and contain whatever you choose to send.
Information collected automatically. Our hosting provider records standard server log data, which may include your IP address, browser type, the pages requested and the time of the request. These logs are used to operate and secure the site, and are kept only for as long as that purpose requires.
Cookies and analytics. This website sets no cookies of its own. It does not run analytics, advertising or tracking software, and it does not build a profile of you across sites or over time.
Third-party requests. This site loads typefaces from Google Fonts. Your browser therefore requests those files directly from Google, which receives your IP address in the process and handles it under its own privacy terms. We receive nothing from Google in return and do not use the request for any purpose of our own.
3. How we use your information
We use the information you submit to respond to your enquiry, to assess whether we are able to assist you, to correspond with you about a possible or existing engagement, and to consider applications for employment.
We do not sell personal information. We do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes. We do not add enquirers to a mailing list unless they ask us to.
4. Confidentiality of enquiries
Enquiries submitted through this website are received by the partners. They are not routed through an external assistant or a shared service.
We do not approach any party about your business, and do not disclose your identity or the identity of your company to any acquirer, investor or other third party, without your instruction. Where a transaction proceeds, disclosure is made only under a signed confidentiality agreement and only on terms you have approved.
These commitments are also reflected in our engagement documentation, which governs in the event of any inconsistency with this policy.
5. Legal bases for processing
We are based in the United States and this website is directed to a United States audience. Where the UK GDPR or EU GDPR nonetheless applies to our processing, we rely on the following bases: taking steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, and performance of that contract; our legitimate interests in responding to enquiries, operating and securing this website, and considering applications for employment; and compliance with legal or regulatory obligations to which we are subject.
6. Disclosure to others
We disclose personal information only in the following circumstances: to professional advisers engaged in connection with a matter, such as counsel and accountants, where doing so is necessary and you are aware of it; to the service providers that host this website and provide our email and client records systems, each of which is bound by contractual confidentiality obligations and processes the information only on our instructions; and where required by law, regulation, a regulator, or legal process.
We will tell you which providers hold information relating to you if you ask.
7. Retention
Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement are retained for twenty-four months and then deleted. Records relating to an engagement are retained for seven years following its conclusion, or for longer where a legal, regulatory or professional obligation requires it. Applications for employment are retained for twelve months unless you ask us to remove them sooner.
8. Your rights
Residents of California. Subject to the conditions and exceptions in the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended, you have the right to know what personal information we have collected about you and how it has been used and disclosed; to request its deletion; to request its correction; and not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined in that Act.
Residents of other states. Several states now provide comparable rights of access, correction, deletion and portability. Where you hold such rights we will honour them on the same terms, without requiring you to establish which statute applies.
Residents of the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area. Where the GDPR applies, you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, and a right to complain to your supervisory authority.
To exercise any of these rights, write to hello@aveonpartners.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
9. Security
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards intended to protect personal information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. No method of transmission or storage is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Please do not send confidential information about your business through the contact form. The form is intended for an initial approach. Substantive material should follow under an executed confidentiality agreement.
10. International transfers
We are based in the United States, and information you submit is processed there. If you are contacting us from outside the United States, you should understand that the legal protections applying to personal information in your country may differ from those applying in the United States.
11. Children
This website is directed to businesses and professional users. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page records when it was last changed. Where a change materially affects how we handle information already given to us, we will say so on this page rather than rely on the date alone.
