PRIVACY NOTICE FOR CUSTOMERS OF GREEN EIGHT CAPITAL AG AND ITS AFFILIATES

WHAT DOES GREEN EIGHT DO WITH YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Financial companies choose how they share your personal information.  This notice (this “Privacy Notice”) is provided by Green Eight Capital AG (together with each of the private investment funds and accounts it advises, and other affiliates and related entities, “Green Eight,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), and sets forth Green Eight’s policies for the collection, use, storage, sharing, disclosure (collectively, “processing”) and protection of your personal data as a current, prospective or former investor, as applicable. This Privacy Notice is being provided in accordance with the requirements of applicable data privacy laws, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“EU GDPR”), the UK GDPR (as defined below) the US Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, as amended (with any implementing regulations, “GLBA”), the Swiss Data Protection Act of 1st September 2023 (“FADP”), as amended from time to time, and the Data Protection Act (“DPA”) of the Cayman Islands, as amended. References to “you” or an “investor” in this Privacy Notice means any current, prospective or former investor, managed account client, as applicable, who is an individual, or any individual connected with the foregoing who is a legal person. For the purposes of the DPA, the Fund is the data controller. U.S. federal law gives you the right to limit some but not all sharing.  U.S. federal law also requires us to tell you how we collect, share, and protect your personal information.  The rights discussed in certain sections of this Privacy Notice may be subject to exemptions or other limitations under applicable law.  Please read this Privacy Notice carefully to understand what Green Eight does.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the United Kingdom (“UK”) and subject to the EU GDPR or the EU GDPR as it forms part of the laws of the United Kingdom by virtue of section 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as amended by the Data Protection, Privacy and Electronic Communications (Amendments etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (the “UK GDPR”, and, together with the EU GDPR, the “GDPR”), or if you are located in Switzerland and subject to the Swiss FADP effective from 1st September 2023, or if you are an investor who is, or is associated with investors in our funds based in the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Funds”) and subject to the DPA, and any other applicable law relating to privacy or the processing of personal data and any statutory instrument, order, rule or regulation implemented thereunder, each as applicable to Green Eight (collectively “Data Protection Laws”), please review this Privacy Notice and see the below section, “Additional Information for EEA, UK and Swiss Data Subjects and Cayman Investors,” for a description of your rights and other information related to the GDPR, FADP and DPA.

We do not disclose non-public personal information about our clients or former clients to third parties other than as described below.

How we use this information.  All financial companies need to share customers’ personal information to run their everyday business and we use the personal information we collect from you for our everyday business purposes.  These purposes may include for example:

We may also disclose such information to service providers and financial institutions with whom we have joint marketing arrangements (i.e., a formal agreement between non-affiliated financial companies that together market financial products or services to you, such as placement agents).  We require third-party service providers and financial institutions with which we have joint marketing arrangements to protect the confidentiality of your information and to use the information only for the purposes for which we disclose the information to them.  These sharing practices are consistent with Federal privacy and related laws, and in general, you may not limit our use of your personal information for these purposes under such laws.  We note that the Federal privacy laws only give you the right to limit the certain types of information sharing that we do not engage in (e.g., sharing with our affiliates certain information relating to your transaction history or creditworthiness for their use in marketing to you, or sharing any personal information with non-affiliates for them to market to you).

How we protect your personal information.  To protect your personal information from unauthorized access and use, we use security measures that comply with Federal law.  These measures include:

  1. designating employees responsible for the security program;
  2. identifying and assessing security risks;
  3. developing policies for the storage, access, and transportation of personal data;
  4. imposing disciplinary measures for violations of the security program, as appropriate;
  5. limiting access by terminated employees;
