Tricon

Privacy Policy

Your privacy, plainly.

Last updated on April 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Tricon collects, uses, and shares information when you use the product to request introductions, submit warm connections, and move trusted intros forward.

We keep collection narrow

We collect the account, profile, target, connection, and intro workflow data needed to run Tricon.

You control what you submit

Profile details, target requests, connection notes, and evidence uploads come from what you choose to provide.

We do not sell personal information

We do not sell your personal information to advertisers or data brokers.

AI is feature-specific

When enrichment or evidence review features run, the relevant content may be sent to our model provider for processing.

Overview

This Policy applies to visitors and users of Tricon. It covers the information we collect through the product and related services used to operate the UCSD-focused warm-intro network.

We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the page and revise the last-updated date shown above.

Scope and applicability

This Policy applies to information collected through Tricon. It does not apply to third-party websites, tools, or services you may access through links, integrations, or authentication providers, which are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

If you use Tricon through a university group, employer, club, or another organization, that organization may also have its own rules for how data is managed on its side.

What information we collect

Information you provide

  • Account and profile information, such as your name, UCSD email, LinkedIn URL, major, and graduation year.
  • Content you submit through the product, including target requests, intro reasons, connection details, relationship notes, and connector handoff notes.
  • Evidence files you upload, such as screenshots or images used to support connection claims or show that an introduction was sent.
  • Messages or information you send for support or operational help.

Information collected automatically

  • Basic technical and usage information needed to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the service, such as timestamps, request metadata, device/browser context, and similar server-side logs.
  • Session-related information used to keep you signed in and protect authenticated areas of the product.

Information from third parties

  • Authentication details from Google when you sign in with a UCSD Google account.
  • Public web information used to enrich target profiles when the enrichment workflow is enabled.

How we use information

  • Provide, maintain, and improve Tricon.
  • Authenticate users and restrict access to the UCSD-only network.
  • Let you create profiles, submit targets, add connections, and manage intro requests.
  • Review evidence, verify workflow steps, and enrich target profiles when those features are used.
  • Detect fraud, abuse, misuse, and unauthorized access.
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our policies.

How we share information

We may share information in the following situations:

  • With service providers and infrastructure vendors that help us host, authenticate, store, secure, or operate the product.
  • With model providers when AI-assisted enrichment or evidence review features are invoked.
  • For legal, safety, or security reasons when disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect users, or prevent abuse.
  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or other business transfer, subject to appropriate protections.
  • At your direction or within the core workflow when you choose to participate in requests, connector handoffs, and related product actions.

We do not sell personal information to third parties for their own advertising or marketing purposes.

AI-assisted features

Tricon may use AI-assisted features to enrich target profiles from public web information and to review uploaded evidence for connection and intro verification workflows.

When those features run, the relevant prompts, metadata, and uploaded evidence may be sent to our model provider for processing. We use that processing to provide the feature, not as a substitute for user judgment.

Security

We use reasonable measures designed to protect information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data retention

We retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, operate the warm-intro workflow, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We may also retain de-identified or aggregated information where appropriate.

Your choices

  • Update certain profile information inside the product when available.
  • Choose what targets, connections, notes, and evidence you submit.
  • Request account or data deletion, subject to legal, security, and operational requirements.
  • Stop using the service at any time, including by signing out and discontinuing submissions.

Children under 16

Tricon is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe such information has been provided, please contact the team operating the service so it can be reviewed and deleted if appropriate.

Region-specific disclosures

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain processing of your personal information. We will respond to valid requests as required by applicable law.

If you use Tricon from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate.
