FINHAVEN GROUP PRIVACY POLICY

FINHAVEN GROUP PRIVACY POLICY

Finhaven Technology Inc, (“Finhaven”), Finhaven Capital Inc. – operating as Finhaven Private Markets – (“Private Markets”), and Finhaven Gateway Inc. (“Gateway”) (collectively, “Finhaven Group”, “we”, “us”, “our”) respect and uphold individual rights to privacy and the protection of personal information while balancing such rights with our need to process your personal information to manage our businesses and deliver our services to you. Based on applicable privacy and data protection principles common to Canada and the provincial jurisdictions to which we are subject we have developed this privacy policy (the “Policy”) to explain our practices for processing your personal information.

This Policy does not apply to our employees’ personal information or any anonymized information.

This Policy describes our practices with respect to how we may collect, use, disclose, retain, dispose of, and otherwise process (collectively, “process”) and how you may correct, update, and access your personal information that you provide as a user of:

  1. the websites operated by:

    1. Finhaven at https://www.finhaven.com;

    2. Private Markets at https://www.finhaven.ca;

    3. Gateway at https://token.finhaven.com

    or other locations from time to time (the “Websites”),

  2. any front-end software, including any applications, we provide you that interacts or interfaces with the Website and proprietary software that supports and records your:

    1. investing, trading, deposit, and withdrawal activity on the Finhaven Distributed Network ledger, in the case of Private Markets;

    2. your purchase, sale, or exchange activity on the Ethereum mainnet, in the case of Gateway; or

    3. your communications activity, in the case of Finhaven (collectively, the “Software”),

    excluding third party software that may interact with the Websites or the Services as defined below, and

  3. the services we provide through the Websites and/or the Software (collectively, the “Services”).

This Policy references the general Terms of Use:

  1. for Finhaven, located at https://www.finhaven.com/Finhaven_Technology_Terms_of_Use.pdf;

  2. for Private Markets, located at https://www.finhaven.ca/Website_Terms_of_Use.pdf; and

  3. for Gateway located at https://token.finhaven.com (collectively, the “Terms of Use”)

and forms an integral part of it.

All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meaning provided in the Terms of Use or are brand names for Finhaven, Private Markets, or Gateway products or services.

Our Websites and Software may contain links to other websites or Internet resources that are provided solely for your convenience and information. When you click on one of those links, you are contacting another Internet resource. We have no responsibility or liability for, or control over, those other Internet resources or their collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of those other Internet resources to learn how they collect and use your personal information.

One example is when a person applies to be an investor client on Private Markets or a customer on Gateway. Our application interfaces on those Websites link you to the customer identification and verification platform owned and operated by Sum&Substance, a service provider the Finhaven Group has retained to enable us to comply with security dealer and money services business obligations under the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and regulations made under it.

PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY. By using our Websites, Software, or Services, or otherwise by choosing to provide us with your personal information, you acknowledge and consent to us processing your personal information in Canada in accordance with this Policy (and as may be further identified when the personal information is collected).

If you are located or reside outside of Canada, please be aware that this Policy is intended for and directed to users in Canada, and the privacy laws and principles in Canada may differ and not offer the same level of protection as those in your location or country/region of residence. Through your continued use of our Websites, Software, or Services, you are transferring your personal information to Canada and you expressly consent to that transfer. We will use this consent as the legal basis for such data transfer, unless otherwise stated in this Policy.

If you do not consent to us processing your personal information in accordance with this Policy, please do not access or continue to use any of the Websites, Software, or Services or otherwise provide any personal information to us.

  • Your authorized representative(s);

  • Organization(s) that you previously consented to collect your personal information; and

Cookies and Log Files

Our Website uses “cookies” and similar technologies like single-pixel GIFs and web beacons. A “cookie” is a text file that is sent to your computer or device and from your computer each time you use the site. Cookies can track how and when you use the Websites and which site you visited immediately before. A cookie does not damage your system and identifies your browser, not you personally.

We use cookies to collect information such as the server your computer is logged onto, the domain name of your internet service provider, your browser type and version (for example, Netscape or Internet Explorer), and your IP address. We may also derive the general geographic area associated with an IP address.

Sometimes, we use cookies in combination with “web beacons” or similar technology to collect information about how our Website is used, such as: your IP address and location data, weblogs, time zone, date, your language preferences, browsers used, web addressees visited, other communication data, searches conducted, pages visited, and any other relevant information about your online experience.

If you are an anonymous visitor, the information in this paragraph does not personally identify you but rather numerically identifies your device, and we share this cookie’s information with a third party marketing provider that will use it to deliver marketing about us to you while you visit other sites on the internet.

If you do not wish to receive cookies, you may be able to disable them. Although this may provide you with enhanced anonymity, it may affect the functioning of our Websites.

To the extent that our Websites contain links to other sites, the owners of those sites are responsible for the privacy practices or content of those other sites. We do not endorse and will not be responsible for the privacy practices on third party websites.

Third Party Advertising

We use third-party advertising companies to strengthen, manage, and improve our online and email advertising campaigns. These companies may collect information about your activity on our Websites and other websites (such as web pages you visit and your interaction with our advertising and other communications) and/or apps in order to make predictions about your preferences, develop personalized content, and deliver advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. We may also partner with ad networks and other companies that serve ads on behalf of us and others on non-affiliated digital properties. Some of those ads may be personalized, meaning that they are intended to be relevant to you based on information these ad networks collect about your visits to our websites and other non- affiliated websites or apps over time. This information may also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of our online advertising campaigns. Cookies set by these third parties may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not directly store personal information (such as name or government identification numbers) but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. Accordingly, information collected by such cookies, alone or in combination with other available information, could potentially be linked to you. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

You may visit https://www.aboutads.info/choices or www.youradchoices.ca/choices to learn more about third party advertising and how to opt-out of this form of advertising on your web browser by companies participating in the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) or the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada (“DAAC”) self-regulatory programs. If you wish to opt-out of interest-based advertising in mobile apps on your device by companies that participate in the DAA’s AppChoices app, you may download that app onto your device and exercise your choice.

In order to access our Private Markets Services, we must assess whether you are qualified for direct investing in digital securities of non-reporting issuers conducting your own due diligence.

As outlined above, we must obtain personal information that will help us make that assessment.

We may ask for additional information if we need it to meet our obligations. We require third- party issued documentation to confirm your accredited investor status. We request your consent to retrieve your credit file (excluding an actual credit report) to verify your identity.

We will only process your personal information for the Purposes for which we intend to process such information. Otherwise, we will not process your personal information without your consent.

  • To our affiliates, in the event disclosure is necessary to provide you with effective Software and Services;

  • To our legal counsel, in the course of seeking advice about an event or circumstance involving you and for which we require advice;

  • Ireland;

  • Singapore;

  • United States of America.

5. Legal Basis for Processing Your Personal Information

Consent

We will process your personal information only with your knowledge and consent, except where exempted, required, or permitted by applicable laws. The form of consent may vary depending on the circumstances and the type of information being requested. Your consent may be express with clear options to say “yes” or “no”, such as by being asked to check a box to indicate your consent, or implied, such as when you provide us with your address through a form or email seeking information and we use those means to respond to your request. Your consent can also be provided by your authorized representative. Taking into account the sensitivity of your personal information, purposes of collection and your reasonable expectations, we will obtain the form of consent that is appropriate to the personal information being processed.

By using our Websites, Software, or Services, or otherwise by choosing to provide us with your personal information, you acknowledge and consent to the processing of your personal information in accordance with this Policy and as may be further identified when the personal information is collected. When we process your personal information for a new purpose, we will document that new purpose and ask for your consent again.

If you do not consent to the processing of your personal information in accordance with this Policy, please do not access or continue to use any of the Websites, Software, or Services or otherwise provide any personal information to us.

You may refuse to provide consent or may notify us at any time that you wish to withdraw or change your consent to the processing of your personal information without penalty, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice by:

  1. deleting your account with the Website(s) or Software and stopping use of the Website(s) or Software, or

  2. opting out of the use of your personal information such as unsubscribing to any newsletter or mailing list subscription that we provide through the Website(s) or Software. However, if you withdraw or change your consent, we may not be able to provide you with the Services through the Websites or Software.

Other Legal Bases

Aside from consent, we may also process your personal information under other legal bases, as permitted by the applicable laws.

6. Security of Personal Information

The security of your personal information is important to us. We protect personal information using physical, technological, and organizational safeguards. We regularly review our practices to ensure they align with reasonable industry practices appropriate to the level of sensitivity to safeguard personal information against loss or theft, unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is completely secure; as such, despite our safeguards and protocols, we cannot fully guarantee the security of your personal information and you should always exercise caution when disclosing personal information over the Internet.

6. Requests for Access to and Correction of Personal Information

Applicable privacy laws allow, to varying degrees, individuals the right to access and/or request the correction of errors or omissions in the individual’s personal information that is in our custody or under our control. You may request access to and review of your personal information in our possession. However, access may be declined where permitted or required by applicable law.

You may request that we change or delete your personal information in our possession. We reserve the right not to change any personal information if we do not agree that it is inaccurate or outdated, but will add to our records any alternative text you believe is appropriate.

If access cannot be provided, we will notify you within 30 days, in writing, of the reasons for the refusal.

7. Retention of Your Personal Information

We generally keep personal information for only as long as it is needed to accomplish the purposes for which it was collected, or as needed for authorized or legitimate purposes. More specifically, we retain personal information as long as necessary for the fulfillment of the identified purposes for its collection or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable laws or protect our interests. When personal information is no longer necessary or relevant for the identified purposes, or is no longer required to be retained by applicable laws, we will take steps to have it deleted, destroyed, erased, aggregated, or made anonymous. We use reasonable industry practices to ensure we have adequate controls, schedules, and practices for information and records retention and destruction, which apply to personal information.
