PRIVACY AT BEACONPOOL

Privacy is a fundamental and multifaceted concept that plays a crucial role in both individual and societal well-being. It refers to the right to control one's personal information, actions, and interactions, and it encompasses various aspects of life, including digital privacy, personal space, and data protection.
About OUR PRIVACY SYSTEM

Here are some key aspects of privacy:

Beaconpool is committed to safeguarding and processing personal information (“PI”), including sensitive personal information (“SPI”)1, in line with all applicable privacy and data protection laws. Many of our offices are located in countries with laws governing the processing of PI. “Beaconpool”, “we”, “us” or “our” means Beaconpool, Inc., and each of the direct or indirect subsidiaries of Beaconpool, Inc. (the “Beaconpool Group”). Beaconpool, Inc., Beaconpool Group functions and the entity you contract with are the controllers of your PI.

References to “you” or “your” refers to individuals whose PI is processed by Beaconpool, including individual investors, and client employees, officers or agents (together “Representatives”) with direct or indirect relationships (such as those who invest through an intermediary); and beneficial owners of an organization or entity in connection with:
* the provision of services to potential and actual clients;
* transactions to which we are party (including those which we effect on behalf of clients); or
* services provided to us by a third-party vendor.

PI is information relating to an individual, which can be used either alone or with other sources of information to identify that individual. PI does not include information where the identity of the individual or the specific detail of the information has been removed and is therefore non-attributable. SPI is a sub-category of PI that includes PI relating to race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about health and genetic and biometric data.

The nature of the information that we collect will depend on the services provided, applicable laws and our relationship with you. We categorize the PI we may process as follows (the PI listed for each category are non-exhaustive examples):

We collect PI in relation to you in several ways, including:

We may also create or derive PI such as creating records of your interactions with us, subject to applicable law. Unless we otherwise indicate that the provision of specific PI is optional, any PI we request is necessary for us to provide you or your organization or entity with the products and services requested. If you do not provide the PI requested, we may not be able to provide those products and services
