Additionally, the Policy outlines what rights you have regarding your own personal information.

WHAT IS PERSONAL DATA?

To provide Kvanted’s services and Kvanted’s website, Kvanted must collect, share and process certain

personal data about you. Personal data is any information that relates to you or can be linked to you either

directly or indirectly by your name or another identifier, such as a phone number or an email address

("Personal Data"). The processing of Personal Data is done in accordance with the General Data Protection

Regulation ("GDPR").


WHAT PERSONAL DATA IS BEING COLLECTED?

Kvanted processes the following types of Personal Data:

• Personal details, such as name and contact information

• Investor information, such as financial circumstances, tax residence, profession, income, assets and

liabilities

• Invoicing and billing information

• KYC information required by applicable Anti-Money Laundering or Counter Terrorism Financing

legislation

• Data collected automatically from the use of our website

The specifics of the processing and of the Personal Data vary depending on your role and whether you’re

an individual investor, act on behalf of a company or are a website visitor. The data is collected primarily

from yourself or from your employer. Website usage data is collected automatically.

Providing Personal Data to Kvanted is in most instances required in case you’re an investor or act on behalf

of one, as we have a legal obligation to process such data.

Kvanted’s customers include its fund investors, portfolio companies, and other potential investors and/or

investee companies. This Policy addresses natural people representing or working for the aforementioned.

Employee information and employee candidate information are also addressed.


WHAT PURPOSE DOES KVANTED USE YOUR DATA FOR?

Kvanted processes your Personal Data for the following purposes:

• To provide Kvanted’s services and to carry out Kvanted’s contractual obligations

• To manage Kvanted’s relationships with investors and other stakeholders

• To provide and administer Kvanted’s website

• To comply with Kvanted’s legal obligations

In most cases, Kvanted relies on legitimate interests for processing your Personal Data. Such a legitimate

interest exists, for example, when you work for a company Kvanted is doing business with or email or contact

us through our website. This legal ground is used where it is necessary to achieve Kvanted’s legitimate

interest and does not outweigh your rights as an individual.

Kvanted processes your Personal Data to perform a contract to which you are or will be a party.

Kvanted also processes your Personal Data when Kvanted has a legal obligation (e.g., tax or social security

obligations) to perform such processing.


WHO WILL IT BE SHARED WITH?

Kvanted discloses personal information to third parties only, if necessary, due to legislation, or authorities.

Additionally, Kvanted has agreed with certain service providers to share data and allow them to process

Personal Data on our behalf. For example, Kvanted shares your Personal Data with companies that host orKvanted Fund I Ky 2

Bulevardi 2-4 A

operate Kvanted’s website. These companies process Personal Data necessary to perform their functions

but may not use it for other purposes. Further, they must process this Personal Data in accordance with

Kvanted’s instructions and as permitted by GDPR. Kvanted may also share Personal Data with other third

parties, for example in case of business transfers or a legal disclosure.

Kvanted will primarily share your Personal Data with companies located within the EU/EEA. If Personal Data

is transferred to companies located outside of the EU/EEA, Kvanted will make sure that it is protected in the

same way as if it was being used in the EU/EEA. Kvanted will use one of the following safeguards:

• Transfer to a non-EU/EEA country whose privacy legislation ensures an adequate level of protection

of Personal Data to the EU/EEA one;

• Put in place a contract with the foreign third-party that means they must protect Personal Data to

the same standards as the EU/EEA; or

• Transfer Personal Data to organizations that are part of specific agreements on cross-border data

transfers with the EU (e.g., EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework).

Access to information is restricted to individuals for whom access is necessary.
