Frequently asked questions
Pave is on a mission to build the world's best compensation tools and easily accessible market data so companies can make fair, equitable, and transparent compensation decisions. Together with Option Impact, we’re able to provide a more holistic and accurate view of compensation trends for both salary and equity across roles, levels, geos, company valuations, and more.
Option Impact & Venture Capital Executive Compensation Survey (VCECS) data sets will be integrated into the Pave product. During the integration Pave will ensure that the data is fully anonymized and aggregated so that it cannot be linked back to any customer or customer employee.
Pave operates under a give-to-get model. This means that participating companies who share their HR data will unlock ongoing, free access to Pave benchmarking. Once you connect your HRIS and cap table systems are connected, you’re good to go - no more surveys required!
Security is at the heart of every decision Pave makes. All benchmarking data is completely de-identified both from the individual and from their employer to preserve 100% anonymity. As a demonstration of our commitment to security and privacy, Pave is SOC2 Type II compliant and maintains compliance with GDPR and CCPA. Learn more about security at Pave.
