General Data Protection Regulation / Cayman Islands Data Protection Law
The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) governs the controlling and processing, such as the use or holding, of personal data, which is essentially any information about identifiable living individuals, and also gives those individuals certain rights and remedies in respect of that information. The Cayman Island Data Protection Law (‘DPL’) similarly does so in respect of our Funds in the Cayman Islands or with Cayman Islands residents as investors.
Identity and contact details of the Data Controller for GDPR purposes:
TRG Management LLP (company number OC349549) whose registered office is at 20 North Audley Street, London, W1K 6WE is the Data Controller and is committed to protecting the rights of individuals in line with the GDPR.
Contact details of the Data Protection Officer for GDPR purposes
TRG has appointed Colin Clark as Data Protection Officer who can be contacted through + 44 207 299 0330. This individual has oversight responsibility for the usage and processing of personal data. Any questions relating to data security should be directed to the Data Protection Officer.
Transferring information overseas:
We may transfer your personal information between businesses that are legally part of the TRG group of companies for the purposes of providing our services.
We may share your personal information with our service providers and this may involve transferring it to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the Cayman Islands whose data protection laws may not be as extensive as those which apply under GDPR. Where we do so, we will ensure that we do this in accordance with the relevant regulation and take appropriate measures to ensure that the level of protection which applies to your personal information processed in these countries is similar to that which applies within the EEA. Such measures may include only transferring your data to jurisdictions in respect of which there is a European Commission adequacy decision or, where this is not the case, by using model clauses which have been approved by the European Commission.
Your rights
You have a key right to learn and have access to what personal information is held by TRG and able to ask us for details on this. Requests such as these are known as a subject access requests.
When we receive such a request we will endeavor to provide you with these details without delay and at the latest within one month of receipt. We may extend the period of compliance by a further two months where requests are complex or numerous. In such instances TRG will inform you within one month of the receipt of the request and explain why the extension is necessary.
When TRG receives a subject access request we will provide a copy of the information held free of charge. TRG may charge a reasonable fee to comply with requests for further copies of the same information. This does not mean that we will charge for all subsequent access requests rather that the TRG reserves the right to charge a fee based on the administrative cost of providing the information. If the after reviewing a request the Data Protection Officer believes a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive, then TRG may charge a ‘reasonable fee’ which will be decided on a case-by-case basis. In certain circumstances TRG may even refuse to respond to such requests. You also have the following rights (unless exemptions apply), which can be exercised by contacting us using the details provided below.
