By using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. We may update these Terms from time to time and any modifications will be effective immediately upon posting unless we indicate otherwise. If you use the Services after any changes to the Terms have been posted, that means you agree to all of the changes. We suggest that you review these Terms periodically for changes.
Except as otherwise noted on the Services, all content and material on the Services — including information, photos, podcasts, blog posts, videos, graphics/charts, icons, code, design, and overall appearance — are the property of Yang Ventures) and should not be used, modified, or reproduced without our prior written consent. All trademarks, trade names, and logos displayed on the Services are the property of Yang Ventures, its affiliates, or their respective third-party owners, and the Services grants no license to them.

The Services are intended solely to provide general information about Yang Ventures, its services to entrepreneurs, and its people. Nothing in the Services is directed at nor should be relied upon by any investors or prospective investors in any vehicle that may be managed or syndicated by Yang Ventures. Yang Ventures does not intend to solicit or make its investment advisory services available to the general public.
Under no circumstances should any information provided in the Services be considered as an offer soliciting the purchase or sale of any security or interest in any pooled investment vehicle sponsored, discussed, or mentioned by Yang Ventures nor should it be construed as an offer to provide investment advisory services. Such offers or solicitations will be made separately and only by means of the confidential offering documents of the specific pooled investment vehicles which should be read in their entirety, and only to those who, among other requirements, meet certain qualifications under federal securities laws. Such investors, defined as accredited investors and qualified purchasers, are generally deemed capable of evaluating the merits and risks of prospective investments and financial matters. There can be no assurances that Yang Ventures’ investment objectives will be achieved or investment strategies will be successful. Any investment in a vehicle managed by Yang Ventures involves a high degree of risk including the risk that the entire amount invested is lost.
Any investments or portfolio companies described or referred to in the Services are not representative of any or all investments in vehicles (if any) syndicated or managed by Yang Ventures and there can be no assurance that the investments described are, or will be, profitable or that other investments made in the future will have similar character or results. 

Any opinions expressed in the Services reflect Yang Ventures’ views or those of individual posters, and are subject to change. Certain information contained in the Services has been obtained from third-party sources, including from portfolio companies of funds managed by Yang Ventures. While taken from sources believed to be reliable, Yang Ventures has not independently verified such information and makes no representations about the enduring accuracy of the information or its appropriateness for a given situation. The discussions and opinions expressed herein are not intended to provide investment, accounting, tax, or legal advice. Nothing in the Services is a recommendation that you purchase, sell or hold any security or other investment, or that you pursue any investment style or strategy.  The content of this website is presented on an “as is” basis with no warranties, express or implied, of any kind with respect to the Services. Any charts provided herein are for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon when making any investment decision.
Certain statements that individual personnel make may constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Privacy Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. To the extent any information herein constitutes forward-looking statements (which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipation,” “upside,” “potential,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “forecast,” “target” or “believe” or comparable terminology), please note that, due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events, results, or performance may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees and involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Yang Ventures expressly disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the event it later turns out to be inaccurate — whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Any projections, estimates, forecasts, targets, prospects and/or opinions expressed in these materials are subject to change without notice and may differ or be contrary to opinions expressed by others.
Past results of Yang Ventures’ investments or investment strategies are not necessarily indicative of future results.
Registration, if any, with the SEC does not imply a certain level of skill or training. 

Third-Party Websites
The Services may link to or integrate with other websites operated or content provided by third parties, and such other websites may link to this website. Yang Ventures has no control over any such other websites or their content and will have no liability arising out of or related to such websites or their content.

Privacy Policy
We take your privacy seriously. We may collect and store any personal information that you knowingly provide to us, as well as information that we automatically receive from your browser or device. The Services do not currently support “do not track” requests at this time, which means that we may collect information about your online activity both while you are using the Services and after you leave the Services. We may communicate with you if you’ve provided us the means to do so, unless you inform us that you do not want to receive communications from us. We do not rent or sell your personal information to anyone. We may share the personally identifiable information you provide us with third parties, but only as necessary to provide the Services. In addition, we may share information to third parties on a non-personal or aggregated basis such that any individual would not be able to be identified.

You may contact us by info@yangventures.com to learn about what personal information of yours is being processed by us, to request access to such information, to rectify your inaccurate personal information in our possession, and/or to request erasure of some or all of your personal data in our systems. In order to allow us to comply with your request, you may need to provide us with personal data or other information, for example, to verify your identity and the nature of your request. Please note that we may not always be able to fully comply with your request, for example, if we are required to retain certain information about you in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

Submissions to Yang Ventures
Due to our small size and the number of business plan ideas and related materials that Yang Ventures reviews, and the similarity of many such plans and materials, we cannot agree to obligations of confidentiality, non-use, or non-disclosure with regard to any information or materials submitted or provided to or otherwise shared with us. By submitting information or materials to Yang Ventures, you (or anyone acting on your behalf) agree that any such information or materials will not be considered confidential or proprietary, and that Yang Ventures is free to use it without condition. In no event will Yang Ventures be limited in, or restricted from, the pursuit of any opportunities, either alone or with third parties.

Such titles should not be construed to indicate that an individual has any ownership interest in Yang Ventures or a Yang Ventures affiliate nor should such titles be construed to indicate that an individual has any particular decision-making authority or responsibility.
