LMP may change this Privacy Policy from time to time, based upon any changes to the personal information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to collect personal information or use any collected information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, and if we make any substantial changes to this Privacy Policy, we will post a prominent announcement on our home page of this website. We will use your personal information only in accordance with this Privacy Policy under which the personal information was collected.

LMP respects the privacy of visitors to our website. This Privacy Policy describes how and when we gather information from visitors to our website. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. For the purposes of applicable EU laws, LMP will be a data controller of any personal information collected by us.

We rely on various legal bases under applicable data protection legislation in order to process your personal information, including our legitimate interests, contractual necessity and as required by law. We use the personal information we collect to operate our business and provide you with the services and products we offer and perform essential business operations. We do not collect any special categories of personal information about you, nor any information about criminal convictions and offenses.

If we require your personal information due to a legal requirement or obligation or in order to perform a contract with you, we will make you aware of this at the time we collect your personal information, and the possible consequences of you failing to provide such personal information (e.g., we may require your passport details to verify your identity for the purposes of anti-money laundering regulations and failure to provide this information means that we cannot provide our services or products to you). In this case, we may have to cancel an investment or service you have with us but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

Further information about the legal bases under which we process your personal information is included in the section headed “Why We Use Your Personal Information”.

You do not need to take any action as a result of this Privacy Policy, but you do have certain rights as described below in the section headed “Your Rights”.

Your personal information will be shared with and processed by our affiliates and certain service providers as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, including professional advisors, consultants and data hosting providers, and in some instances, placement agents and other fund administrators. These third parties may have access to the personal information you submit through this website, but only for the purpose of performing their duties. These persons may not use your personal information for any other purpose.

We make sure anyone who provides a service to, or for us, enters into an agreement with us and meets our standards for data security. To the extent your personal information is transferred to countries outside of the EEA, such transfers will only be made in accordance with applicable data privacy laws. For further information about the safeguards used, please contact lovellminnickpartners@lmpartners.com.

We will not provide any personal information to any other persons, except if we are required to make disclosures to the government, to comply with a request from a regulator, national security, for the purposes of public importance or any other legal or investigatory process involving us or private parties in connection with a lawsuit, subpoena, investigation, examination or similar proceeding.

Please be aware, though, that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal information breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

We will keep your personal information only for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. We will not keep more information than we need for those purposes. For further information about how long we will keep your personal information, please contact lovellminnickpartners@lmpartners.com.

EU SFDR Disclosure

Firm-level disclosures required under Regulation 2019/2088 on sustainability-related disclosures in the financial services sector dated 27 November 2019, as amended (“SFDR”)

Transparency of sustainability risk policies

Lovell Minnick seeks to integrate environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors, including sustainability risks, where relevant, into its investment processes, investment decisions and portfolio monitoring through the application of its ESG Policy and related procedures. Lovell Minnick evaluates material ESG risks, mitigating factors and opportunities applicable for the asset type (and the industry as a whole), which may include corporate governance, data privacy, ethics, anti-bribery and corruption, diversity and employee retention. When evaluating investment opportunities, Lovell Minnick also considers whether there are serious ESG or reputational concerns with regard to prospective portfolio companies or other assets.

Lovell Minnick may engage third party ESG consultants to conduct ESG due diligence on each potential portfolio company, pre-acquisition, to identify any material ESG-related risks and to provide recommendations for how to mitigate those risks during ownership. These recommendations are intended to guide Lovell Minnick’s consideration of material ESG risks when making portfolio investments.

Lovell Minnick supports the American Investment Council (“AIC”) Guidelines for Responsible Investing and strives to align with the principles that it contains.

Transparency of Principal Adverse Sustainability Impacts

Lovell Minnick has considered, and continues to consider, environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors in its investment process but it does not consider principal adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors as specifically set out in the SFDR. Lovell Minnick has chosen not to do so for the present time as it considers that its existing ESG Policy and procedures are appropriate, proportional and tailored to the investment strategies of the funds managed by Lovell Minnick. Lovell Minnick continues to closely monitor regulatory developments with respect to the SFDR and other applicable ESG-focused laws and regulations, including the implementation of related and secondary legislation and regulatory guidance, and will, where required or otherwise appropriate, make changes to its existing policies and procedures.
