## How we list individuals

**Only what is already public.**

Everyone here was named in a round, a filing or their own firm's pages. No photographs. [How we collect it](https://millionrounds.com/methodology).

**Nothing inferred.**

A page says the title their firm publishes, the firm, and the rounds we saw them named in. No guessed wealth, cheque size or appetite.

**Removal is unconditional.**

Ask and the record goes, without a reason, without an account, and it stays gone. [The same form](https://millionrounds.com/corrections) that corrects a fund removes a person.

## Find the person, not just the fund.

Search by firm, group, market and whether we have watched them invest. Free with an account.
