Where our processing activities fall within their scope, this policy also reflects the requirements of the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”), the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and other applicable privacy and data protection legislation.

2. Important Information About This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data relating to identifiable living individuals. It does not apply to information that has been irreversibly anonymised so that no individual can be identified from it.
Our website may contain links to websites, platforms or services operated by third parties. Those third parties may collect or use personal data in accordance with their own privacy policies. We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy practices, security or content. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every website you visit.
Our use of cookies and similar technologies is addressed separately in our Cookie Policy. This Privacy Policy should therefore be read together with our Cookie Policy and any other legal notices displayed on our website.

4. Who Is Responsible for Your Personal Data?
For the purposes of applicable data protection legislation, CE Global Private Equity will generally act as the data controller in respect of personal data covered by this Privacy Policy. This means that CE Global Private Equity determines why and how that personal data is processed.
In some circumstances, another member of our corporate group, an investment fund, a general partner, an investment manager, an adviser, a portfolio company, a special-purpose vehicle or another entity associated with a particular investment may separately or jointly determine the purposes and means of processing.
Where another entity acts as a separate or joint controller, further information may be provided in a specific privacy notice, investment document, subscription document, engagement letter, employment notice or other relevant communication.
CE Global Private Equity may also process personal data on behalf of another organisation as a data processor or service provider. Where we act solely as a processor, the relevant controller's privacy policy will ordinarily govern that processing.

CE Global Private Equity operates from the Cayman Islands and the United Kingdom and may conduct business internationally. Personal data may therefore be transferred to, accessed from, stored in or otherwise processed in countries other than the country in which it was originally collected.
Recipients may be located in the Cayman Islands, the United Kingdom, the United States, the European Economic Area, Asia, the Middle East or other jurisdictions in which CE Global Private Equity, its advisers, service providers, investors, portfolio companies or transaction counterparties operate.
The data protection laws of some recipient countries may not provide the same level of protection as the laws of the jurisdiction from which the personal data was transferred.

16. Personal Data Breaches
We maintain procedures designed to identify, assess, contain, investigate and respond to suspected personal data breaches.
Where required by applicable law, we will notify the relevant data protection authority, regulator, affected individual or other appropriate party.
Any notification will be made in accordance with the applicable legal requirements, taking into account the nature of the breach, the categories of information affected, the likely consequences and the measures taken or proposed in response.
17. How Long We Retain Personal Data
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, reporting, audit, compliance, security and record-keeping requirements.

As a general principle:

- recruitment records for unsuccessful applicants may be retained for a reasonable period after the recruitment process, unless a longer period is justified or you agree to consideration for future opportunities;
- website-security logs may be retained for a period appropriate to security, investigation and operational needs;
- marketing records may be retained while we have an active relationship or legitimate reason to communicate with you, together with suppression records necessary to respect opt-out requests; and

When personal data is no longer required, we may securely delete it, destroy it or irreversibly anonymise it.
We may retain anonymised information indefinitely where it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
18. Accuracy of Personal Data
We take reasonable steps to ensure that personal data is accurate, complete and, where necessary, kept up to date.
Please notify us if your personal data changes or if you believe that information we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete.
We may periodically request updated information or supporting documents, particularly where required for identity verification, investor administration, tax reporting, sanctions screening, anti-money laundering compliance or other regulatory purposes.

You may have the right to receive clear information about how and why we process your personal data. This Privacy Policy is intended to support that right.
19.2 Right of Access
You may have the right to request confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and to receive a copy of that data together with certain supplementary information.
19.3 Right to Rectification
You may have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal data and completion of incomplete personal data.
19.4 Right to Erasure
In certain circumstances, you may have the right to request deletion of your personal data.
This right is not absolute. We may retain information where processing remains necessary for legal compliance, regulatory obligations, legal claims, public-interest purposes, contractual requirements or other lawful reasons.
19.5 Right to Restrict Processing
You may have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, including while the accuracy or lawfulness of processing is being considered.
19.6 Right to Object
You may have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or the performance of a public-interest task.
Where you object, we may stop the processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless processing is required for legal claims.
19.7 Right to Object to Direct Marketing
You may object at any time to the use of your personal data for direct marketing. We will honour such requests in accordance with applicable law.
We may retain limited information on a suppression list to ensure that we do not send you further marketing communications contrary to your request.
19.8 Right to Data Portability
In certain circumstances, you may have the right to receive personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to request its transmission to another controller.
19.9 Rights Relating to Automated Decision-Making
Where applicable, you may have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
You may also have the right to request human intervention, express your point of view and challenge a decision.
19.10 Right to Withdraw Consent
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn and will not affect processing based on another lawful ground.
19.11 Right to Complain
You may have the right to submit a complaint to the relevant data protection authority.
For matters relating to processing governed by Cayman Islands law, you may contact the Office of the Ombudsman of the Cayman Islands.
For matters relating to processing governed by UK data protection law, you may contact the UK Information Commissioner's Office.
We would appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns directly before you approach a supervisory authority, although this does not affect your legal right to make a complaint.
20. Exercising Your Rights
To exercise a privacy right, please contact us using the details in Section 5.
When submitting a request, please provide enough information to allow us to:
- identify you;
- locate the relevant personal data;
- understand the right you wish to exercise; and
- respond appropriately.
We may request additional information or identification documents where reasonably necessary to verify your identity, protect personal data and prevent unauthorised disclosure.
You may authorise another person to submit a request on your behalf. We may require evidence of that person's authority and may need to verify your identity directly.
We will respond within the period required by applicable law. Where permitted, the response period may be extended for complex or multiple requests. If an extension applies, we will notify you where required.
We will generally not charge a fee for responding to a valid rights request. However, where permitted by law, we may charge a reasonable fee or decline to act if a request is manifestly unfounded, excessive, repetitive or otherwise abusive.
Certain information may be withheld where an exemption applies, including where disclosure would adversely affect the rights of another person, reveal legally privileged material, undermine an investigation, conflict with regulatory obligations or prejudice the prevention or detection of crime.
21. Direct Marketing
We may send relevant business-to-business communications, investor-relations materials, event invitations, publications or corporate updates to professional contacts where permitted by law.
We may rely on consent, legitimate interests or another permitted legal basis, depending on the nature of the communication and the jurisdiction of the recipient.
You may ask us to stop sending marketing communications at any time by:
- using the unsubscribe facility contained in an electronic communication;
- contacting the sender;
- emailing [email protected]; or
- contacting us using the details in Section 5.
Opting out of marketing communications will not prevent us from sending necessary administrative, contractual, compliance, regulatory, security or transactional communications.
22. Children's Privacy
Our website and services are intended for business, professional, institutional and investment-related audiences. They are not directed at children.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from children through our general website.
If we become aware that personal data relating to a child has been collected inappropriately, we will take reasonable steps to delete or otherwise address the information.
Where information relating to a minor is lawfully required in connection with an investment structure, trust, estate, beneficial ownership arrangement, employment benefit or other legitimate activity, we will process it only for appropriate purposes and subject to applicable safeguards.
23. Confidentiality and Investment Information
Information submitted through the website should not be assumed to create an advisory, fiduciary, contractual or confidential relationship unless CE Global Private Equity has expressly agreed otherwise in writing.
You should not transmit highly sensitive, confidential, privileged, regulated or transaction-specific information through a general website form unless we have requested it and confirmed an appropriate transmission method.
Where you disclose personal data in connection with an investment, proposed transaction or confidential business matter, additional confidentiality provisions, engagement terms, non-disclosure agreements or transaction documents may also apply.
24. Communications Monitoring
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may monitor, inspect, retain or record communications made through our business systems for:
- security;
- compliance;
- quality assurance;
- training;
- fraud prevention;

25. Social Media and Professional Networking Platforms
CE Global Private Equity may maintain profiles on social media or professional networking platforms.
If you interact with us through such a platform, the platform operator may process your personal data independently in accordance with its own terms and privacy policy.
We may receive information including your name, profile, employer, job title, public posts, messages, reactions and other interactions. We may use that information to respond to you, manage professional relationships, monitor public commentary and communicate about our business.
Our ability to control information processed by a platform operator may be limited. You should review the platform's privacy settings and policies.
26. External Websites and Third-Party Services
Our website may provide links to third-party websites, publications, virtual data rooms, service portals or other resources.
Following a third-party link may allow the relevant third party to collect or receive personal data. CE Global Private Equity does not control those third parties and is not responsible for their privacy policies, security measures or processing activities.
The inclusion of a link does not necessarily constitute endorsement of the third party or its privacy practices.
27. Changes of Purpose
We will ordinarily use personal data only for the purposes for which it was collected or for another compatible purpose.
If we need to use personal data for a materially different and incompatible purpose, we will identify an appropriate legal basis and provide additional notice where required.
We may process personal data without additional notice where required or permitted by law, including for legal compliance, regulatory reporting, investigations, security or legal claims.
