Welcome to The Startups Point (thestartupspoint.com). I’m Marcus Thompson, the founder, and I care deeply about your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains in straightforward terms how I collect, use, and protect the personal information you share when you visit and interact with my website.
Information We Collect
When you subscribe to our newsletter, I ask for your name and email address so I can deliver weekly startup tips, blog post announcements, and occasional special offers straight to your inbox. Similarly, if you leave a comment or question on any of my blog posts, I may request your name, email address, and the content of your comment to facilitate meaningful conversations and provide personalized responses.
Usage Data
To better understand how visitors engage with The Startups Point, I use Google Analytics, which collects anonymous data such as the pages you visit, how long you stay on each page, and the referring site that led you here. This usage data helps me refine the site’s layout, content, and features so I can offer you a more relevant and enjoyable experience.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
I employ cookies and similar tracking technologies to remember your preferences—such as whether you are logged in or which blog topics you find most interesting. You can disable cookies in your browser settings if you prefer, but please be aware that some site features may not function as intended without them.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
I do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. However, I may share aggregated and non-identifiable usage data with trusted service providers who assist me with analytics and email delivery. The Startups Point may also contain links to external sites or partner services. While I strive to recommend reputable resources, I am not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, so I encourage you to review their policies separately.
Your Rights
You always have control over your personal data. If you’d like to access the information I hold about you, correct any inaccuracies, or request deletion, simply email me at [email protected]. Additionally, you can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time by using the link at the bottom of any email you receive.
Data Security
I take your data’s security seriously and implement industry-standard measures, including SSL encryption and secure servers, to protect the information you share. Nevertheless, no system is completely foolproof. Please exercise caution when submitting sensitive information and avoid sharing passwords or financial details on this site.
Children’s Privacy
The Startups Point is intended for a general audience and not designed for children under 13. I do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If you believe I have inadvertently collected information from a minor, please contact me immediately so I can delete the data.
Policy Updates
I may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in legal requirements or my practices. Any revisions will be noted by updating the Last Updated date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the site after such updates signifies acceptance of the revised policy.

If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback about how I handle your information, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at [email protected]. Your trust is invaluable, and I am committed to safeguarding your privacy every step of the way.
