6. Why Do We Process Your Personal Data?
We only process personal data where the processing can be legally justified. We will usually rely on one of the following lawful bases for the processing:
- for the performance of a contract, or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract: for example, to establish and manage relationships with clients, investors, counterparties and service providers, provide products and services, or otherwise fulfil our contractual obligations;
- for ensuring compliance with our legal obligations: for example, to comply with applicable financial services, anti-money laundering, sanctions, fraud prevention, tax, accounting, regulatory reporting, communications monitoring and record-keeping requirements;
- for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party), provided your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests, for example:
- to manage the JJJ Capital business efficiently and effectively (for example, to operate and develop our business, support investment research and analysis, establish or defend legal claims, or to facilitate a sale or restructuring of the business);
- to keep our systems, website, devices and information secure in accordance with local law requirements to prevent fraud and ensure network, premises and information security;
- to provide information requested by our investors, trading counterparties and service providers;
- to maintain compliance with our internal policies and procedures;
- to manage and improve our website, digital services and user experience, including through the use of website analytics and cookies;
- to conduct due diligence, anti-money laundering, sanctions screening and fraud prevention activities; and
- to use publicly available information, including publicly available biographical and professional information and publicly available statements, comments and opinions, in connection with our investment research and business activities.
- with your consent, in limited circumstances and where permitted by law (for example, where consent is required for certain cookies, website analytics technologies, marketing communications or the processing of particular categories of personal data). Further details about the processing of such data will be provided to you at the time such consent is sought. In such circumstances you can withdraw your consent at any time, although please note that a revocation of consent would not affect the lawfulness of any processing that has already occurred.
In the case of special category personal data or sensitive personal data (such as information about your criminal convictions), additional protections apply under data protection legislation. We therefore usually only process such data in the following circumstances and where permitted by applicable laws:
- where it is necessary in order to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (or potential legal claims);
- where it is necessary for reasons of substantial public interest, including to prevent fraud and unlawful acts;
- where the personal data has been manifestly made public by the individual concerned; and/or
- where we have your explicit consent.
7. Do We Use Automated Decision-Making?
We do not envisage that any decisions will be taken about you using solely automated means. We will notify you if this changes.
8. With Whom Might We Share Your Personal Data?
We may share your personal data with third parties, such as:
- other companies and affiliates within the JJJ Capital group;
- third party service providers, which may include suppliers of IT infrastructure, cloud hosting, website hosting, website analytics, communications systems, customer relationship management systems, marketing services, audio-visual communication tools, enterprise AI tools, corporate administration services and other technical, operational and professional support services;
- government bodies, dispute resolution and law enforcement organisations and other regulators, including the DIFC, FCA, HMRC, law enforcement agencies and the courts;
- our advisors, including accountants, auditors, lawyers and other external professional advisors;
- our trading counterparties, banks, brokers, custodians, administrators, service providers and other business partners in the ordinary course of our business;

- credit reference agencies and other third parties conducting background checks in the context of client, counterparty, or investment due diligence;
- any third party as directed by you; and
- other third parties in the context of a sale of our business or its assets or a restructuring exercise.
9. Is Your Personal Data Transferred Internationally?
We may transfer your personal data outside the DIFC or the UK (as applicable) from time to time, for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice. For example, personal data may be transferred to, or accessed by, third-party service providers located in the United States. This means that personal data may be transferred to jurisdictions that do not offer an equivalent level of legal protection as the DIFC or the UK.
When we transfer personal data internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that it remains protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws, for example:
- the transfer is to a country that has been recognised by the DIFC Commissioner of Data Protection or the UK Government as providing an adequate level of protection;
- we have put in place contractual terms approved by the DIFC Commissioner of Data Protection or the UK Government (as applicable) to ensure that your personal data is safeguarded appropriately; or
- the recipient has certified to an approved certification mechanism, such as the US Data Privacy Framework scheme, in respect of which the UK has put in place the UK-US Data Bridge.
We may also rely on other lawful transfer mechanisms permitted under applicable data protection laws. In all cases, personal data will only be transferred where appropriate safeguards are in place.
If you would like further information about the safeguards we use in connection with international transfers, including copies of the relevant transfer mechanisms (where available), please contact us using the details set out at the end of this Privacy Notice.
10. How Long Do We Keep Hold of Your Personal Data?
We only retain personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes identified above, as required by law, or to establish, exercise or defend potential legal claims. The period for which we retain personal data will depend on factors such as the nature of the information, the purposes for which it was collected and any applicable legal or regulatory retention requirements.
11. What Are Your Legal Rights?
You may have certain rights under applicable data protection law (subject to certain conditions), including:
- to obtain access to your personal data and request information about how we process it;
- to request the correction or completion of your personal data if it is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date;
- to ask us to erase or destroy your personal data held by us in certain circumstances (please note that there may be circumstances where you ask us to erase your personal data, but we are legally entitled to retain it);
- to object to, or ask us to restrict, our processing of your personal data in certain circumstances (please note that there may be circumstances where you object to, or request the restriction of, our processing of your personal data, but we are legally entitled to continue processing it);
- to ask us to transmit personal data you have provided to us back to you or to another organisation in certain circumstances;
- under the DIFC DPL: not to be discriminated against for exercising any of your rights under the DIFC DPL;
- under UK GDPR: to lodge a complaint with us in relation to our processing of your personal data; and
- where we are relying on your consent, to withdraw your consent at any time.
Please contact us using the contact details in Section 14 if you wish to exercise any of the above rights.
If you have a complaint about how your personal data is processed or whether your rights have been exercised correctly under this Privacy Notice, you have the right to complain to the relevant supervisory authority, the contact details for which can be found at Section 15.
12. Use of AI Tools - Your Rights Under the DIFC DPL
Please read this section carefully.
We use AI tools in some instances to process personal data subject to the DIFC DPL. When we do process your personal data using such tools, in some cases, due to the technical nature of how the particular tool operates, the personal data that is processed by the applicable tool is not strictly kept as a separate record that we can simply find, change or delete. Instead, it may be absorbed into the datasets used by the underlying AI model, and may also persist in copies such as back-ups or logs, including those held by the applicable third party providers we use. As a result, once your personal data has been processed in this way, it may not always be technically feasible for us to correct or erase it, or to give effect to an objection. This is an inherent limitation of certain AI systems.
Where it is technically feasible for us to access your personal data used in respect of such AI tools, your right to correct or erase it, or object to such processing should not be affected in the same way.
13. Your Responsibilities
It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and up-to-date. If your personal data changes it is important for the protection of your own interests that you let us know promptly.
If you fail to provide certain information when requested, we may be unable to communicate with you, provide products or services, complete due diligence checks, or otherwise comply with our legal and regulatory obligations. This may result in us being unable to enter into or maintain a contractual or business relationship with you.
14. Contacts & Changes
If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice or the personal data we hold about you, please contact us:

- by post to: JJJ Capital Management LLP, 5th Floor, Greycoat Stores, 10 Greycoat Place, London, SW1P 1SB, United Kingdom; or JJJ Capital Management (DIFC) Limited, Index Tower, Level 4, Unit 406, DIFC, Dubai.
We may update this Privacy Notice periodically. Where we make any material changes, we will inform you of those changes. This notice is non-contractual, which means it does not confer any legal rights and we may amend it at any time in line with law or good practice.
15. Complaints
