If you are a California resident, California law requires us to provide you with some additional information regarding how Alarad collects, uses, and shares your “personal information” (as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”)). Please note the CCPA’s scope excludes personal information covered by certain financial services-specific privacy laws, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) and California Financial Information Privacy Act (FIPA). Our separate Privacy Notice that is provided to investors applies to this excluded data and has been provided to our fund investors.

Shine the Light Disclosure: The California “Shine the Light” law gives residents of California the right under certain circumstances to request information from us regarding the manner in which we share certain categories of personal information (as defined in the Shine the Light law) with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.
Additional Information for California Residents
Please note that the CCPA sets forth certain obligations for businesses that “sell” personal information to third parties, and gives California residents the right to opt out of the “sale” of personal information. We do not engage in such activity and have not engaged in such activity in the past twelve months, nor do we have actual knowledge that we have engaged in such activity in connection with individuals under 16 years of age. We do share certain information and allow parties to collect certain information about your activity, for example through cookies. We explain our use of cookies and how you can control cookies in the How We Use and Share Your Information and the Cookies and Tracking Technologies sections.

[**If you are an individual (including, for purposes of this section of the Privacy Notice only, an individual associated with an investor in a Alarad fund) and the fund in which you are invested is organized in the Cayman Islands (including any master fund in which you are indirectly invested), such fund and Alarad are considered to be data controllers in respect of any personal information we hold about you for the purposes of the Cayman Islands Data Protection Law 2017 (the “DPL”). This means that the fund and Alarad (alone or jointly, as applicable) determines the purposes and the means of the processing of your personal information. We may share your personal information with the fund’s services providers or others who are located outside the Cayman Islands. It may also be necessary to share your information with the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority or the Tax Information Authority, which may, in turn, exchange this information with foreign tax authorities, regulatory or law enforcement agencies. Any transfer of your personal data by us or our service providers outside the Cayman Islands will be carried out in accordance with the DPL. You may have certain rights under DPL, including: (i) the right to be informed; (ii) the right of access; (iii) the right to rectification; (iv) the right to stop or restrict processing; (v) the right to stop direct marketing; (vi) rights in relation to automated decision making; (vii) the right to seek compensation; and (viii) the right to complain to the supervisory authority. A complaint in respect of a Alarad fund organized in the Cayman Islands may be lodged with the Office of the Ombudsman in the Cayman Islands.**] Not required yet as you don’t have a Cayman fund.
