Information We Obtain

The types of personal information we may obtain include:

  • Contact information, such as your name, telephone number, and postal and email address;
  • User-generated content related to comments, questions and answers;
  • If you are a client or investor, we obtain information about you and your organization such as Social Security number (or its equivalent), assets, income, investment/transaction information, bank details and other information required to establish a client or investor relationship, such as information you provide to us in contracts, correspondence or interactions with our representatives, and information we generate to service your account, such as capital account statements;
  • Social media information, such as social media handles, content and other data shared with us through social media pages (such as our social media pages or other pages accessible to us);
  • Information you provide in the course of applying for a job with us, such as details about your education, work and military history, legal work eligibility status, and background check information; and
  • Other information you choose to provide, such as through our “Contact Us” feature or other forms available on our Sites.

Personal information that you provide directly to us will be apparent from the context in which you provide it, for example:

  • If you fill out a form on our Sites, you may provide your name, contact details (postal address, email address and telephone number) and other information requested by the form, such as the reason for your inquiry;
  • If you sign up to receive electronic marketing communications from us, you may be asked to provide your name, email address and other contact information;
  • If you are a client or investor, when you log into a client portal, while we obtain your login credentials, your information is otherwise collected by the third-party that operates the portal and is subject to that third party’s own privacy notices. Once you log in, additional information about you will be included in the portal, such as your name, work email address, phone number, time zone, postal address and investor status, if applicable; and
  • If you sign up to a feature on our Sites, you may be asked to provide your name and contact information and other information necessary to access the feature.

Each form on our Sites varies in the information required and collected. In most cases, an asterisk (*) indicates the required information on a form. You may choose to provide additional information within fields that are not required.

In addition, you may choose to submit personal information to us if you attend an event that we or one of our affiliates or partners has organized or if you otherwise communicate with us on social media or by sending us an email.  

We also may collect personal information about you from third party data providers or publicly available sources for anti-money laundering, background check or similar screening purposes, to protect our business and to comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

While the personal information you choose to provide is voluntary, providing certain personal information may be necessary to offer you the relevant product or service.  If you choose not to provide certain information, this may affect our ability to provide you with certain products or services.  

Cookies and Similar Technologies

When you visit our Sites, we may obtain certain information by automated means, such as cookies, web beacons, web server logs and other technologies. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. The information we collect in this manner may include your device IP address, unique device identifier, web browser characteristics, device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, clickstream data, and dates and times of website visits.

We use these automated technologies on our Sites to collect information about your equipment, browsing actions, and usage patterns. These technologies help us (1) remember your information so you do not have to re-enter it; (2) track and understand how you use and interact with our Sites; (3) tailor the Sites around your preferences; (4) measure the usability of our Sites and the effectiveness of our communications; and (5) otherwise manage and enhance our products and services, and help ensure they are working properly.

Your browser may tell you how to be notified about certain types of automated collection technologies and how to restrict or disable them. Please note, however, that without these technologies, you may not be able to use all of the features of our Sites. For mobile devices, you can manage how your device and browser share certain device data by adjusting the privacy and security settings on your mobile device. 

The Sites are not designed to respond to “do not track” signals from browsers.

            Third Party Analytics Services

We may use third-party analytics services on our Sites, such as Google Analytics. The information we obtain through the Sites may be disclosed to or collected directly by these services.

When we transfer your personal information to recipients in other countries, we will protect that personal information as described in this Privacy Notice.

We will comply with applicable legal requirements by providing adequate protection for the transfer of personal information to data recipients in countries outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the United Kingdom and Switzerland. To the extent these data recipients are in countries that are not recognized by the European Commission or another relevant body as providing an adequate level of data protection, we provide appropriate safeguards aimed at ensuring a required level of data protection, including by entering into Standard Contractual Clauses issued by relevant authorities, such as the European Commission.  To obtain a copy of the safeguards we have put in place, please contact us as indicated below.

How We Protect Personal Information

We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we obtain against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or use.

Retention of Personal Information

To the extent required by applicable law, we keep the personal information for the period reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes described in our Privacy Policy, plus a reasonable period to comply with the applicable statute of limitations or if otherwise required under applicable law, unless a shorter retention period is required by applicable law. 

Your Rights and Choices

We offer you certain choices in connection with the personal information we obtain.  You can tell us at any time not to send you marketing communications by email by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the marketing emails you receive from us or by sending an “opt out” request to the address indicated on the email. You also may ask us not to contact you in connection with any new product, service, update, news, or event by contacting us as described below.
