DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA AND TRANSFERS OVERSEAS

Disclosures and Transfers within Altaris

Altaris takes security and legal precautions to ensure the safety and integrity of personal data that is transferred within its organization. Where a transfer of personal data within Altaris involves a transfer of personal data outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or UK, such transfers will be made in accordance with the EU and UK Privacy Laws.

Disclosures and Transfers to Third Parties

Personal data will, in certain circumstances, be disclosed to third parties, including third-party fund administrators, custodians of the assets of the Altaris Funds, advisors to Altaris on tax and other related matters, and others as necessary and appropriate.

Where Altaris is under an obligation to do so by law, it may disclose personal data to regulators, courts, the police or tax authorities, or in the course of litigation. In some cases, in accordance with applicable law, it may not be possible to provide notification in advance about the details of such disclosures. The Company will use reasonable efforts to disclose the minimum personal data necessary in such cases.

Where Altaris engages the services of a third-party, Altaris will seek to ensure that such suppliers protect personal data with appropriate security measures and prohibit them from using data other than as instructed by the Company.

RIGHTS IN RELATION TO PERSONAL DATA HELD BY THE COMPANY

Natural persons have certain rights under EU and UK Privacy Laws in relation to the personal data we hold about them. Some of these only apply in certain circumstances as set out in more detail below. We also set out how to exercise those rights. Please note that we require natural persons to verify their identity before responding to any requests to exercise applicable rights. Natural persons have the following rights in relation to their personal data:

  1. Access: the right to access the personal data held by Altaris and certain information about how we use it and who we share it with. Those wishing to exercise this right should email charles.mullens@altariscap.com;
  2. Portability: in certain circumstances, natural persons have the right to receive or ask us to provide their personal data to a third-party in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, although we will not provide certain personal data if it would interfere with another’s individual’s rights or where another exemption applies; we are not responsible for the security of the personal data or its processing once received by the third-party;
  3. Correction: natural persons may insist that we correct any personal data held about them that is inaccurate and have incomplete data completed (including by the provision of a supplementary statement).
  4. Restrictions on use: you may request that we stop processing your personal data (other than storing it), if: (i) you contest the accuracy of it (until the accuracy is verified); (ii) you believe the processing is against the law; (iii) you believe that we no longer need your personal data for the purposes for which it was collected, but you still need your personal data to establish or defend a legal claim; or (iv) you object to the processing, and we are verifying whether our legitimate grounds to process your personal data, override your own rights;
  5. Erasure: natural persons may request that we erase the personal data we hold about them where they believe that it is no longer necessary for us to hold the personal data we hold; or where the natural person believes the personal data we hold about them is being unlawfully processed by us
  6. Objection: in certain circumstances, in particular where personal data has been provided voluntarily, or consent to use personal data has been otherwise granted, natural persons have the right to restrict or object to our processing of personal data or withdraw consent.
