Terms of Service
Last updated: February 17, 2026
Welcome to 757.vc, a platform operated by KONSTANTLY, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company ("Company", "Platform", "we", "us", or "our"). By accessing or using our website at https://757.vc, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.
1. About the Platform
757.vc is a community-powered directory for Virginia's startup ecosystem. The Platform enables users to discover, submit, and vote on startups; post comments, reviews, and discussions; connect investors with founders through intro requests; track deal flow; and participate in the Virginia startup community.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old to use the Platform. By using 757.vc, you represent that you are of legal age to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction. If you are using the Platform on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
3. Account Registration
To access certain features, you must create an account using an email address and password or through a third-party authentication provider (such as Google). You agree to:
- Provide accurate and complete registration information
- Keep your account credentials secure
- Not share your account or let others access it
- Not create accounts that impersonate another person or entity
- Promptly update your information if it changes
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately.
4. User Content
"User Content" includes any information, text, images, links, or other material you submit to the Platform, including but not limited to: startup listings, comments, reviews, discussions, profile information, investor profiles, and event submissions.
You retain ownership of your User Content. By submitting content to the Platform, you grant 757.vc a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, display, reproduce, and distribute your User Content in connection with operating and promoting the Platform.
You represent and warrant that your User Content:
- Does not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights
- Does not violate any applicable law or regulation
- Is not fraudulent, misleading, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable
- Does not contain malware, spam, or unauthorized advertising
5. Startup Listings & Scouting
Users may submit startup listings to the Platform ("scouting"). Submitted startups are subject to review and approval. Founders may claim their startup pages to take ownership of the listing. We reserve the right to reject, remove, or modify any startup listing at our discretion.
Listing a startup on 757.vc does not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or validation of the startup, its products, or its team by 757.vc.
6. Reputation & Badges
The Platform includes a reputation system that awards points and badges based on community activity (voting, commenting, reviewing, scouting, and other contributions). Reputation scores and badges are awarded at the sole discretion of 757.vc and may be modified, recalculated, or revoked at any time without notice.
Badges and reputation scores are for community recognition purposes only. They do not constitute professional credentials, certifications, endorsements, or qualifications. Do not rely on badges or reputation scores when making investment, business, or hiring decisions.
Attempting to manipulate the reputation system — including but not limited to posting spam content, creating fake accounts, or coordinating activity to inflate scores — is a violation of these Terms and may result in account termination.
7. Investor Features & Introductions
The Platform provides features for accredited investors and other investment professionals, including investor profiles, deal flow tracking, and intro requests to connect with founders.
757.vc is not a broker-dealer, investment adviser, or funding platform. We do not:
- Provide investment advice or recommendations
- Facilitate or process financial transactions
- Verify the accreditation status of investors
- Guarantee the accuracy of any startup or investor information on the Platform
- Guarantee that introductions will lead to investment or any particular outcome
Introductions facilitated through the Platform are made on a best-effort basis. Both parties are responsible for conducting their own due diligence. 757.vc bears no liability for the outcomes of introductions, meetings, investments, or any business relationships that result from use of the Platform.
8. Email Communications
By creating an account, you consent to receive transactional emails from 757.vc, including but not limited to: notifications about activity on your content (votes, comments, replies), intro request updates, badge notifications, startup approval status, and account security alerts. These transactional emails are part of the Platform's service and cannot be individually opted out of while maintaining an active account.
You may also opt in to receive marketing emails, including newsletters and platform updates. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by updating your account settings.
9. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
- Manipulate voting through fake accounts, bots, or coordinated inauthentic behavior
- Post fake reviews or misleading information
- Harass, threaten, or abuse other users
- Scrape, crawl, or use automated tools to extract data from the Platform without written permission

- Attempt to circumvent any security measures or access restrictions
- Use the Platform in violation of any applicable law
