The Site uses cookies and similar technologies (collectively, "cookies") to enhance functionality, remember your preferences, and analyze how the Site is used. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a web server. You can control cookie settings through your browser, but disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site.

Strictly Necessary: Required for core Site functionality. Cannot be disabled without impairing Site operation.

Analytics & Performance: Used to understand aggregate usage patterns. Data is anonymized and used solely to improve the Site experience.

Preference: Remember your settings and choices across sessions, such as display preferences.

We may use privacy-respecting analytics tools to collect aggregated, non-personally-identifiable usage data. Any analytics providers we engage are contractually prohibited from using your data for their own purposes beyond providing analytics services to us.

We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, and destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit using TLS, access controls limiting employee and contractor access to personal information on a need-to-know basis, and security reviews of our service providers.

Despite these precautions, no security system is impenetrable and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information you transmit to us. By using the Site you acknowledge that you transmit information at your own risk. In the event of a security incident materially affecting your personal information, we will notify you as required by applicable law.

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements.

For fund application materials submitted through the Site, we typically retain records for a period of seven (7) years from the date of submission to comply with applicable securities regulations and internal investment record-keeping requirements. Investor and LP records are retained for the duration of the fund relationship and for the period required by applicable law and regulation thereafter.

Web analytics data is retained in anonymized, aggregated form and is not linked back to individual users after the session from which it was collected.
