We use personal information to manage and operate our business, including to explore new investment opportunities, manage our existing portfolio, develop and maintain our contacts and recruit staff. Where necessary, we may also use personal information to protect the interests of the Company, our employees and affiliates (for example in the event of a legal claim).

When you contact us, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our business, such as letting you know about upcoming events or changes to our business.

We use the information we collect from our Website to provide, maintain, protect and improve it and to protect our users. We may use information collected from cookies and other technologies to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our Website.

Our legal basis for processing your personal information

If EU data protection law applies to our processing of your personal information, it is important that you know the lawful basis on which we process your personal information.

We rely on the following legal basis, under EU data protection law, to process your personal data:

Where we have obtained your consent, for example to action a request from you or respond to your specific query. You can withdraw your consent at any time, but we may still need to retain a record of your correspondence with us.
Where it is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests to manage our existing investments and explore new investment opportunities, including conducting legal and commercial due diligence.
Where it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, for example under anti-money laundering or anti-bribery legislation.

Transfer of personal information

Tapestry VC is headquartered in the United States. Consequently, any information we collect will be transferred to, and stored in, the US and other countries where the data protection laws may offer a lower standard of protection than in your country of residence. Where personal information is transferred outside the EEA, we will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that it is subject to appropriate safeguards and that it is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Enforcement

Company is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the United States government and its agencies. We may be required to share your personal information, including the disclosure of EU and Swiss personal information, to public authorities and law enforcement agencies in response to lawful requests, including requests to meet national security and law enforcement requirements.

Right to access, update and delete your personal information

If you are a resident of California or the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain legal rights in respect of the personal information about you held by us, including, for California residents, your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). This includes the right to obtain a copy of this information on request, and the right to correct, amend or delete such personal information or object to it being used for certain purposes (including marketing). We may ask you to verify your identity before we can act on your request.

We will comply with any requests to exercise your rights in accordance with applicable law, and so there may be circumstances where we are entitled to refuse your request. For example, where permitted to by law, we may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems).

Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so free of charge, except where it would require a disproportionate effort (where we are permitted to charge a fee under applicable law). We aim to maintain any information we hold and our Website in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction.

To make any requests regarding your personal information, or if you have any questions or concerns regarding your personal information, you should contact us at contact@tapestry.vc. You are also entitled to contact your local supervisory authority for data protection.

Right to object

You have the right to object (opt-out) of your personal information being used for purposes which are materially different to the purposes for which it was collected, as described in this Privacy Policy (including being disclosed to a third party). We may refuse your request where we have a right to do so (for example, if the use is necessary to comply with a legal obligation). To exercise any of your rights, please contact us at contact@tapestry.vc

Information that we share

We do not sell your personal information. We share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of Tapestry VC in the following circumstances:

With your consent: We may share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside Tapestry VC when we have your consent to do so.
For external processing: We provide personal information to our affiliates or other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us or for similar reasons (for example, in connection with using shared compute resources and servers), based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
With our legal and professional advisors: We share information with our legal and other professional advisors, for example if they are advising us on an investment transaction or where otherwise necessary to obtain their advice.
For legal reasons: We may share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside Tapestry VC if we have a belief in good faith that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

- meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request;
- enforce applicable terms of service, including investigation of potential violations;
- detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and/or
- protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Tapestry VC, our users or the public, as required or permitted by law.

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale of Tapestry VC, we will use reasonable endeavors to ensure the personal information we process continues to be subject to the same protections set out in this Privacy Policy.

Information security

We work hard to protect our Website and any information that we hold from unauthorized access or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction. In particular:

We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.
We restrict access to personal information to our employees, contractors, service providers and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations. They may be disciplined or their contract terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

When this Privacy Policy applies

Our Privacy Policy applies to all of the services offered and businesses operated by us, but excludes services and businesses that have separate privacy policies that do not incorporate this Privacy Policy.

Our Privacy Policy does not apply to services offered or businesses operated by other companies or individuals. Our Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of other companies and organizations that advertise our services and that may use cookies, pixel tags and other technologies.
