I. Introduction

 

Thank you for visiting the website (this “Site”) for Alkterra Capital (“Alkterra” or “we”). We recognize that users need to understand how their privacy is protected when they visit the Site, so we have established the following privacy policy (this “Privacy Policy”) for our users. This Privacy Policy describes how Alkterra will collect, access, use and disclose your personal information and information related to your use of the Site. This Privacy Policy only applies to information that Alkterra collects about you through your use of the Site. Information collected by Alkterra about you independent of this Site is not governed by this Privacy Policy.

We may change this Privacy Policy at any time by posting changes on the Site. We encourage you to check back and review this Privacy Policy from time to time. Your continued use of the Site following our posting of changes will mean that you accept the revised Privacy Policy. Alkterra is under no obligation to provide you notice of such modifications to this Privacy Policy via email or other communication.

In addition to this Privacy Policy, the use of the Site is also governed by Alkterra’s Terms and Conditions. Please click here to review our Terms and Conditions in its entirety.

 

II. Information Collected by Alkterra

 

When you use this Site, Alkterra may collect certain information from you. By using this Site, you consent to Alkterra’s collection, use and sharing of the data as described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information that You Provide to Alkterra

You may provide Personal Information to Alkterra through the Site by explicitly providing this information to us (e.g., by filling out and submitting a form or application, sending us an email, contacting us using the information in the “Contact Us” section, or other similar means).

For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” is information about you that is readily identifiable specifically to you. Personal Information may include such information as your name, address, email address, phone number, and other similar information. Domain names, Internet protocol addresses and aggregated or combined information are not considered Personal Information.

2. Information Automatically Collected by the Site

In addition to the Personal Information you provide, Alkterra will automatically collect certain information about your visit when you use the Site (“Automatic Data”). For example, we may collect your Internet protocol address and the domain name used; the type of browser you used; the date and time you visited the Site; and the webpages you accessed on the Site. This Automatic Data may be collected by cookies, log files, web beacons, and other similar means. None of the Automatic Data is deemed to be Personal Information.

 

III. How Alkterra Uses and Shares Information

 

Alkterra may use and/or disclose your Personal Information and Automatic Data for the following reasons:

  • to contact you in response to your inquiries or comments, or to otherwise contact you when necessary
  • for the specific purpose for which it was volunteered (e.g., to process an application)
  • to improve the Site and Alkterra’s products and services
  • to contact you regarding products or services offered by Alkterra
  • to validate your identity
  • to be provided to Alkterra’s affiliates or service providers in connection with the legitimate business purposes of Alkterra
  • to generate aggregate statistical studies for internal research
  • as required by law or regulation, or to comply with court orders, subpoenas or other similar requests for information by authorities, or for the protection of persons or property
  • to federal or state law enforcement authorities to enforce Alkterra’s rights against unauthorized access or attempted unauthorized access to Alkterra’s information technology assets or against other inappropriate use of the Site

IV. Opting-Out

 

From time to time, you may receive email communications from Alkterra, including marketing communications. If you would prefer not to receive any marketing communications from Alkterra, the messages will provide instructions on how you may opt-out of receiving such communications. Opt-out requests will be effective after a reasonable period of time for processing.

 

V. California Residents: Your California Privacy Rights

 

If you are a California resident, you may have the right to request and receive certain information about our disclosure of your Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes, and your choices with respect to such disclosures. Because it is our policy not to share your Personal Information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you are first given the opportunity to opt-out from such sharing, we are exempt from having to meet this requirement.

Alkterra does not track its users across third-party websites, nor does it allow third parties to collect personally identifiable information on the Site. As such, the Site does not respond to browser “Do Not Track” requests.

 

VI. Exclusions

 

This Site may contain links to websites owned by other companies. Because Alkterra has no control over the privacy practices or content of these linked websites, we recommend that you carefully review the privacy policy of each website you visit. Alkterra is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of websites owned by other companies.

Alkterra does not seek to, nor do we knowingly collect, information from children. If a child has provided us with Personal Information, a parent or guardian of that child may contact us to have the information deleted from our records. To do so, contact Alkterra through the information provided below in the “Contact Us” section.

Due to the design of the Internet, Alkterra cannot guarantee that communications between you and our servers will be free from unauthorized access by third parties.

 

VII. Non-United States Residents

 

If you do not reside in the United States and are visiting the Site, by providing any information to us, including your Personal Information, you understand and hereby consent to such information being transferred to and processed on computers in the United States and other countries. Do not provide your Personal Information to us if you do not want this information to be transferred or processed outside of your country, or if the laws in your country restrict these types of transfers. Instead, please contact us to make your inquiry. Your provision of Personal Information to us will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Your provision of Personal Information to us through the Site means that you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

 

VIII. Translations

 

We may translate this Privacy Policy into other languages for your convenience. However, the English version governs your relationship with Alkterra, and the English version will govern if there are any inconsistencies among the different versions.
