- information on electronic communication with Tribe or other technical data (e.g. records of accessing our website);
- image and audio data (e.g. CCTV or voice recordings); and
- where necessary to provide certain services to you and with your consent, we may collect and process sensitive personal information which may include information about your physical or mental health.
We collect information through a variety of sources, including:
- the account agreements you complete for our services;
- conversations and correspondence with us, including recorded telephone lines;
- anti-money laundering verification services;
- public registers and agencies;
- our online services and website; and
- agents, brokers, dealers, introducers and other intermediaries.
How do we use and upon what legal grounds do we process your personal information?
We use your personal information, and may share your personal information with other third parties acting on our behalf, for several purposes. These purposes and the legal basis upon which we process your personal information are set out below.
We may process your personal information because it is necessary in connection with the provision of our services. This includes personal information we require to fulfil a request for our products or services prior to entering into a contract with you and for the performance of that contract.
We may process your personal information for our legitimate interests as a business (except where your interests or fundamental rights override these). For example, it is within our legitimate interests to use your personal information:
- to send you market commentary and information about your investments, products and services we believe are relevant and of interest to you;
- to respond to any enquiry or complaint you may make to us;
- for market research purposes, where we may contact you to ask for your feedback;
- to prevent abuses of our website, for example, by requesting verification information in order to reset your account password (if required);
- to ensure the security of our premises;
- to maintain compliance with our internal policies and procedures; or
- for our own administrative purposes, including training our staff and conducting internal audits.
We may process your personal information in order to comply with our regulatory and legal obligations such as to prevent money laundering, fraud, market abuse or other criminal activity, to comply with tax laws or to meet our regulatory reporting obligations.
We may process your information because you have given us your consent to do so. For example:
- where you have provided us with sensitive personal information necessary for us to provide you with the services you have requested, such as information about your health;
- where you have agreed we can contact you with information about the products and services we can offer to you; or
- where you have provided information to us via our website.
If at any time after you have consented to us using your personal information for marketing purposes and you wish us to stop using your information for these purposes, please email us at hello@tribeimpactcapital.com.
Is automated decision-making, including profiling, carried out?
As a basic principle, our decisions are not based on automated processing of personal data. There are areas of the business where personal data are processed at least partly by automated means. The objective of this is to evaluate certain aspects of the relationship where we are obligated to do so by legal and regulatory requirements (e.g. prevention of money laundering) and for the purposes of risk management.
Do we share your personal information with other third parties?
There are circumstances where we may wish to disclose or are compelled to disclose your personal information to third parties. For example, we may pass on your data to:
- the custodians of your investments;
- government institutions, regulators, authorities and courts (when legally obliged to do so) such as the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the ICO or the HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC);
- providers of investments we recommend; and
- service providers who are processing the data on behalf of Tribe under contractual obligations of confidentiality, such as IT service providers, auditors, printing services, professional advisers and fraud prevention organisations.
We will only transfer your personal information to countries outside the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) (so-called third countries):
- where it is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures or the performance of a contract;
- where it is necessary for the provision of services or processing of orders (e.g. execution of payment instructions or securities transactions);
- where you have given us your consent; and
- where it is required by law or regulation (e.g. to comply with anti-money laundering regulations or reporting obligations under tax law).
These disclosures of personal information to third parties will only take place in accordance with the law and for the purposes listed above.
How do we keep your personal information secure?
Tribe takes all reasonable steps to ensure that any personal data that you provide to us is kept secure, and we have put in place measures to guard against unauthorised use of your personal information or accidental loss, destruction or damage. Because of the nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the website or via email, and any inward transmission of data is carried out at your own risk.
How long do we retain your personal information?
Your personal information will be retained for as long as it is necessary to carry out the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice (unless longer retention is required by law). However, we will not retain any of your personal information beyond this period and the retention of your personal information will be subject to periodic review. We may keep an anonymised form of your personal information, which will no longer refer to you, for statistical purposes without time limits, to the extent that we have a legitimate and lawful interest in doing so.
