Guest founder workspaces, task progress, checklists and survey answers are saved in the visitor’s browser. When a founder creates an account, their formation workspace and task progress are also saved to Borderless Founder’s hosted database so they can return across devices. Google Analytics measures aggregate events such as tool starts and completions. Tool events use generic tool IDs; Founder Path answers, workspace recommendations and task details are not sent to GA4.

Local storage and saved workspace
The Founder Path draft, saved checklist, email intent record and founder survey response are designed as device-local features. They help you resume the questionnaire or return to your own checklist or survey response from the saved workspace. Clearing browser storage or using the clear buttons can remove those saved items from that browser.
Because this is local storage, Borderless Founder cannot recover it if you switch devices, clear site data or use strict privacy settings.
Analytics and affiliate measurement
Google Analytics 4 is used to understand aggregate site behavior: which pages send users into Founder Path, which tools are started or completed, which saved-workspace actions happen, and which partner or Revlift links are clicked. The tool events are intentionally limited to generic tool IDs and page paths; they should not include selected answers, countries, tax facts, sales amounts, BOI status, deadline jurisdictions or recommendation details.
Affiliate links may point to partners such as Firstbase and doola. Borderless Founder may earn a commission if a user buys through an affiliate link. Affiliate relationships do not change editorial warnings, comparisons or eligibility cautions. See how Borderless Founder makes money.
Email and survey providers are not connected yet
The current email forms, including the research digest interest page, save intent locally and provide a manual request email. Automated reminders, newsletters and hosted survey collection are planned, but should only be connected after the provider, privacy notice, consent wording, data destination and deletion process are confirmed.
