1. About this policy
Alfa8 Partners LLP (“Alfa8”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is responsible for the personal information described in this policy. It applies when you visit our website, communicate with us or use a service we provide.
2. Information we collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
- Contact information, such as your name, organisation, role and contact details.
- Communications, including enquiries, correspondence and information you choose to provide.
- Technical information, such as IP address, browser, device, timestamps and security or diagnostic data.
- Professional information received from business contacts, partners or publicly available sources.
Please do not provide sensitive personal information unless it is necessary and we have asked you to do so.
3. How we use information
We use personal information only where necessary to:
- respond to enquiries and maintain professional relationships;
- provide, operate, secure and improve our services;
- administer agreements and meet our legal or regulatory obligations;
- protect our rights, systems and property; and
- send relevant communications where permitted by law.
Where applicable, we rely on legitimate interests, contractual necessity, legal obligations or consent. Our legitimate interests include operating securely, managing relationships and developing our business. We do not sell personal information.
4. How we share information
We may share personal information only where reasonably necessary with:
- trusted providers that support our operations, systems and communications;
- professional advisers, auditors, insurers or transaction counterparties; and
- public authorities or other parties where required by law or necessary to protect legitimate interests.
We require providers acting for us to handle information only for authorised purposes and with appropriate safeguards.
5. Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, our relationship with you, and applicable legal, accounting, security or reporting requirements. Information is then deleted or anonymised, subject to limited retention in secure backups or where preservation is required by law.
6. Security and international transfers
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information. No system is completely secure. Where information is transferred internationally, we use safeguards required by applicable law, such as recognised adequacy arrangements or approved contractual protections.
7. Your privacy rights
Depending on your location and the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to our use of your personal information, request portability, withdraw consent, and opt out of marketing communications.
You may object at any time to processing based on our legitimate interests or for direct marketing.
To exercise a right, email invest@alfa8.co with “Privacy request” in the subject line. We may need to verify your identity and authority before fulfilling a request. You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or your local supervisory authority.
8. Data deletion
You may request deletion of your personal information by emailing invest@alfa8.co with “Data deletion request” in the subject line. Please include enough information for us to identify the relevant records, but do not send passwords or authentication codes.
After any necessary identity checks, we will delete or anonymise information that we are not required to retain and ask relevant providers to do the same where applicable. We may keep limited records where required for legal compliance, security or dispute resolution.
9. Children
Our services are intended for businesses and adults. They are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Please contact us if you believe a child has provided information to us.
