How we collect personal data

We may collect personal data about you through: (i) information provided directly to us by you, or another person on your behalf when you submit a subscription document to invest in the Fund; (ii) information that we obtain in relation to any transactions between you and us; and (iii) electronic communications with you. We also may receive your personal information from third parties or other sources, such as our affiliates identified at the top of this Privacy Notice, the Administrator, marketing or business development partners, publicly accessible databases or registers, tax authorities, governmental agencies and supervisory authorities, credit agencies, fraud prevention and detection agencies, or other publicly accessible sources, such as the Internet. Where personal data is required to satisfy a statutory obligation (including compliance with applicable anti-money laundering or sanctions requirements) or a contractual requirement, failure to provide such information may result in your subscription in the Fund being rejected or compulsorily redeemed. Where there is suspicion of unlawful activity, failure to provide personal data may result in the submission of a report to the relevant law enforcement agency or supervisory authority.

How we share your personal data

All financial companies need to share customers’ personal data to run their everyday business. Below, we list the ways we share personal data collected in accordance with applicable Data Protection Laws and whether you can limit such sharing. To request that we limit sharing where permitted, please contact us using the information below.

We may share your personal data:

For our everyday business purposes (such as to process your transactions, maintain your account(s), respond to court orders and legal investigations, or report to credit bureaus). You cannot limit this sharing.
For our marketing purposes (to offer our products and services to you). You can sometimes limit this sharing.
For our affiliates’ everyday business purposes (such as information about your transactions and experiences). You cannot limit this sharing.
With our affiliates for direct marketing purposes, such as offers of products and services to you by our affiliates. You have the right to limit this type of sharing. If you are a new investor, under U.S. federal law, we can begin sharing your personal data with our affiliates for their own (if any) direct marketing purposes 30 days from the date we sent this Privacy Notice. When you are no longer our investor, we may continue to share your personal data with our affiliates for such purposes. We may also disclose information about your transactions and experiences with us to our affiliates for their everyday business purposes.

We do not share your personal data with non-affiliates except as required or permitted by law. We do not share your personal data with non-affiliates for them to market to you, and we do not share your personal data for joint marketing with other financial companies. If you limit sharing for an account you hold jointly with someone else, your choices will apply to everyone on your account. U.S. state laws and applicable foreign jurisdictions may give you additional rights to limit sharing.

In addition to the specific situations discussed above, we disclose personal data in the following situations:

Affiliates and Acquisitions. We may share personal data with our corporate affiliates (e.g., parent company, sister companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control). If another company acquires, or plans to acquire, our company, business, or our assets, we will also share personal data with that company, including at the negotiation stage.
Other Disclosures with Your Consent. We may ask if you would like us to share your personal data with other unaffiliated third parties who are not described elsewhere in this notice.
Other Disclosures without Your Consent. We may disclose personal data in response to subpoenas, warrants, or court orders, or to relevant regulatory authorities, or to tax authorities or in connection with any legal process, or to comply with relevant laws. We may also share your personal data to establish or exercise our rights, to defend against a legal claim, to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding possible illegal activities, suspected fraud, safety of person or property, or a violation of our policies, or to comply with your request for the provision of services by a third-party intermediary. It may also be necessary, under anti-money laundering and similar laws, to disclose personal data about the Fund’s investors to accept subscriptions from them or to facilitate the establishment of trading relationships for the Fund with executing brokers or other trading counterparties. We will also release personal data about you if you direct us to do so.
Service Providers. We share your personal data with service providers. Among other things, service providers help us to administer our fund, provide technical support, administer our website, send you mailings and other information, and process subscriptions and redemptions. Service providers also include, but are not limited to, our Administrator, Prime Brokers, website service providers, marketing and customer relationship service providers, Custodians, Auditors, Legal Advisers and executing brokers and trading counterparties.

Monitoring of communications

We may monitor electronic communications with you for the purposes of: (i) ascertaining the details of instructions given, the terms on which any transaction was executed or any other relevant circumstances; (ii) ensuring compliance with our regulatory obligations; and/or (iii) detecting and preventing the commission of financial crime.

Retention periods and security measures

We will not retain personal data for longer than is necessary in relation to the purpose for which it is collected, subject to applicable Data Protection Laws. Personal data will be retained for the duration of your investment in the Fund, and for a period of ten years after a redemption of an investment from the Fund, or liquidation of the Fund. We may retain personal data for a longer period for internal compliance purposes or compliance with applicable law. From time to time, we will review the purpose for which personal data has been collected and decide whether to retain it or to delete if it no longer serves any purpose to us.

No method of transmission of the internet or method of electronic storage is fully secure. While we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data. These measures include computer safeguards and secured files and buildings. If we are required by applicable law to inform you of a breach to your personal data, we may notify you electronically, in writing, or by telephone, if permitted to do so by law.

International transfers

Because of the international nature of the fund management business, personal data may be transferred to countries outside your country of residence, including the European Economic Area (“EEA”), Switzerland, or the Cayman Islands ("Third Countries"), such as to jurisdictions where we conduct business or have a service provider. This may include countries that may not have the same level of data protection as that afforded by the applicable Data Protection Laws in your country of residence, including, but not necessarily limited to, the United States. In such cases, we will process personal data (or procure that it be processed) in the Third Countries in accordance with the requirements of applicable Data Protection Laws, including through Standard Contractual Clauses used for the transfer of personal data outside of the EEA, Switzerland, or the Cayman Islands.

Automated decision-making

We will not take decisions producing legal effects concerning you, or otherwise significantly affecting you, based solely on automated processing of your personal data, unless we have considered the proposed processing in a particular case and concluded in writing that it meets the applicable Data Protection Law requirements.

Your Choices

Where required by law, investors in some jurisdictions can make the following choices regarding their personal data, which you can do by contacting us at the address, phone number, or email at the end of this Privacy Notice:

Access to Your Personal Information. You may request access to your personal data or confirmation that we are processing your personal data. If required by law, upon request, we will grant you reasonable access to the personal data that we have about you.
Changes to Your Personal Information. We rely on you to update and correct your personal data. If our website does not permit you to update or correct certain information, you can request that your personal data be modified. Note that we may keep historical information in our backup files as permitted by law.
Deletion of Your Personal Information. You may request that we delete your personal data. If required by law, we will grant a request to delete your personal data, but you should note that in many situations we must keep your personal data to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, or for another one of our business purposes.
Objection to or Restriction of Certain Processing. In certain circumstances, you may object to our processing of your personal data, or request that we restrict processing of your personal data. We will no longer process your personal data unless we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. Note that you can object to processing for direct marketing purposes.
Revocation of Consent. Where we process your personal data based on consent, if you revoke or restrict your consent, we may no longer be able to provide you services.
Right to compensation for damage and to make a complaint. Under the DPA, you have the right to be informed of a personal data breach (unless the breach is unlikely to be prejudicial to you) and may have a right to compensation for any damage that occurred because of a personal data breach. Where you feel that your rights are not being respected, you may submit a complaint to the Office of the Ombudsman of the Cayman Islands or your appropriate supervisory authority.

Please note, not all of the rights described above are absolute, and they do not apply in all circumstances. In some cases, we may limit or deny your request because the law permits or requires us to do so, or if we are unable to adequately verify your identity. We do not discriminate against any individuals who exercise their privacy rights under applicable Data Protection Law.

Miscellaneous

Changes to this Privacy Notice. We may change our Privacy Notice and practices over time. New notices will be published on our website. To the extent that our Privacy Notice changes in a material way, the notice that was in place at the time that you submitted personal data to us will generally govern that information unless we receive your consent to the new privacy notice. Our Privacy Notice includes an “effective” and “last updated” date. The effective date refers to the date that the current version took effect. The last updated date refers to the date that the current version was last substantively modified.
