Privacy Policy
Last updated: Sep 25, 2026
Who We Are
AI House, Inc. (“AI House,” “we,” or “us”) is an early-stage venture firm and incubator based in Seattle, Washington. We are committed to maintaining your confidence and trust with respect to your privacy. Please read this privacy policy carefully to understand our practices about how we collect, use and share your personal information.
About This Privacy Policy
This privacy policy applies to this website (aihouse.vc), our application portal, our events, and our other websites or services that refer or link to this privacy policy (each, a “Site” and together, the “Sites”), and to any other personal information obtained when you call, email, or otherwise communicate with AI House. This privacy policy describes the types of information we collect through the Sites, how we use such information and to whom and under what circumstances we may disclose it. It also describes your choices regarding use, access, correction and deletion of your personal information.
This privacy policy applies when you access the Sites on any computer, mobile phone, tablet, or other device (collectively, “Device”) or otherwise interact with AI House. This privacy policy may be supplemented by additional privacy statements, terms or notices provided to you.
AI House may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the current version on the Sites. If we make material changes to how we use personal information we have already collected, we will provide additional notice.
This privacy policy does not govern the practices of third party applications, products, services or businesses (collectively, “Third Party Services”), including the platforms we use for event registration, which have their own privacy policies. It does govern the personal information we receive from those services.

Personal information that is no longer required to fulfill the identified purposes will be destroyed, erased or de-identified.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information you provide from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure, taking into account the sensitivity of the information we collect, process and store, and the current state of technology. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and AI House cannot guarantee absolute security. If you have any questions about the security of your information, you can contact us using the information in the “Contact Us” section below.
Third Party Websites
The Sites may contain links to, or other options to redirect to or integrate with, third-party websites, such as (but not limited to) social media sites like LinkedIn and X, which may have privacy policies that differ from our own. We are not responsible for the activities and practices that take place on these websites. Accordingly, we recommend that you review the privacy policy posted on any external site before disclosing any personal information. Please contact those websites directly if you have any questions about their privacy policies.
