Data Storage

Carbon Cap stores your data on physical and electronic media. Data is safeguarded by Carbon Cap and its Service Providers by maintaining physical and electronic security controls that are designed to comply with applicable legal standards.

The Data that is collected or held in relation to you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA, who works for us or one of our Service Providers. In some cases, the laws of the destination country may not provide the same level of data protection as countries within the EEA.

However, all Data wherever they are held by Carbon Cap will be afforded a high level of protection against any unauthorised or accidental disclosure, access, or deletion. By submitting your data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although Carbon Cap will do its best to protect your data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted electronically. Any such transmission is at your own risk.

Data Sharing

Carbon Cap uses service providers to conduct aspects of its business, so information may be disclosed to them and their affiliates data that you have provided in order to fulfil the purposes for which the data is held. These service providers may disclose such data to each other and affiliates in order to achieve the same purposes.

Carbon Cap and its service providers may also be required to disclose your data to governmental agencies, self-regulatory organisations, industry associations and similar bodies in order to fulfil legal and regulatory requirements. In addition, the laws of certain countries and states give people involved in lawsuits and other legal proceedings the right under certain circumstances to obtain information from Carbon Cap and its service providers, including your data. Carbon Cap and its service providers will comply with these laws to the extent required.

Carbon Cap will not sell your data to any third-party. Wherever possible, service providers are required to enter into confidentiality agreements that prohibit them from selling or improperly using your data.

Data Retention

Carbon Cap will retain your personal information for a period of up to seven years following the point where the business relationship has ceased.

It may be necessary to retain your personal information beyond this period depending on additional legal/regulatory obligations. Thereafter, Carbon Cap will refrain from collecting any further personal information on you and shall take appropriate steps to dispose of any records containing your personal information to the extent this is operationally feasible and proportionate.

Lawful Basis for Processing

Carbon Cap assesses all personal data that is collected or stored to ensure that there is a legal basis for each type of data under GDPR. Given that Carbon Cap is an FCA-regulated firm, the majority of the lawful basis for Carbon Cap’s processing is to meet its obligations to the FCA (legal obligation basis) or to fulfil its obligations to you under contract (contract basis). Other lawful bases may be used where Carbon Cap assesses this is necessary and appropriate.

Data Subject Rights

You have the following rights, in certain circumstances, in relation to your personal information:

• Access Your Personal Information (in an Easily Readable Form)
• Rectify Your Personal Information
• Restrict the Use of Your Personal Information (in Certain Specific Circumstances)
• Request That Your Personal Information Is Erased (in Certain Specific Circumstances)
• Please note that the right for your data to be erased (the “right to be forgotten”) that applies in some contexts under the general data protection regulation is not likely to apply to most, if not all, of the personal information you provide to Carbon Cap, given the specific nature of the purposes for which carbon cap uses the data, as described above.
• Object to Processing of Your Personal Information (In Certain Specific Circumstances)
• Data Portability (in Certain Specific Circumstances)
• Withdraw Consent (in Certain Specific Circumstances)
• Receive Information Regarding Any Entities We Disclose Your Data to

Where Carbon Cap or its Service Provider(s) requires your personal information to comply with AML or other legal requirements, failure to provide this information means Carbon Cap will not be able to accept you as a client or investor.
