Privacy Policy

1. Scope

This policy applies to personal information processed through the RWAValuator website, access-request process, correspondence, and related business-development activity. It does not govern independently operated third-party websites or services.

2. Information you provide

Depending on how you interact with us, you may provide:

• identity and business-contact information, such as name, organization, business email, role or title, telephone number, and mailing address;
• access-request information, including asset class, intended use, engagement interests, and related correspondence;
• asset, ownership, technical, commercial, legal, or evidentiary information supplied during an authorized engagement; and
• communications, requests, feedback, and records necessary to respond to you or administer a relationship.

Do not submit sensitive personal information, confidential asset information, credentials, or third-party information through a public website form unless expressly requested through an authorized secure channel.

3. Information collected automatically

When you access the website, hosting and security systems may automatically process limited technical information such as IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, requested pages, timestamps, approximate region, error records, and security events. This information supports delivery, reliability, diagnostics, fraud prevention, and protection of the website.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

The website may use essential cookies, local storage, or comparable technologies required for security, session continuity, preferences, and basic operation. The current website is not designed around behavioral advertising. If non-essential analytics or advertising technologies are introduced, this policy and any required consent controls will be updated.

5. How information is used

Information may be used to:

• operate, secure, maintain, troubleshoot, and improve the website;
• review eligibility and respond to access or engagement requests;
• communicate about RWAValuator, meetings, services, reports, or requested information;
• administer authorized evaluations and verify the provenance and completeness of submitted materials;
• protect rights, systems, users, and counterparties; prevent misuse; and investigate security events;
• comply with applicable law, legal process, contractual obligations, recordkeeping, and risk-management requirements; and
• create aggregated or deidentified information that is not reasonably linked to an identifiable person.

6. Legal bases where applicable

Where a legal basis is required, processing may rely on consent, steps requested before entering a contract, performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, and legitimate interests such as operating a secure business website, responding to institutional inquiries, protecting rights, and managing risk. Consent may be withdrawn where consent is the applicable basis, without affecting earlier lawful processing.

7. Disclosure of information

Information may be disclosed only as reasonably necessary to:

• affiliates and authorized personnel supporting the relevant request or engagement;
• hosting, security, communications, professional-advisory, document-management, and other service providers acting under appropriate obligations;
• professional advisers, auditors, insurers, financing sources, or transaction counterparties when authorized or necessary for an engagement;
• governmental, regulatory, judicial, or law-enforcement authorities when required or permitted by law; or
• a successor or participant in a merger, financing, reorganization, asset transfer, or similar corporate transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.

Vanward Global does not sell personal information collected through this website and does not use it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

8. Retention

Information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described, including responding to requests, administering relationships, maintaining business and compliance records, resolving disputes, protecting rights, and satisfying legal obligations. Retention periods vary according to the nature, sensitivity, context, and legal requirements applicable to the information.

9. Security

Vanward Global uses administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information in light of its nature and the risks presented. No website, transmission, storage system, or security measure is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

10. International processing

Information may be processed in the United States and other jurisdictions where authorized personnel or service providers operate. Where applicable law requires safeguards for cross-border transfers, appropriate contractual or other lawful mechanisms will be used.

11. Privacy rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or information about processing; to object to certain processing; or to withdraw consent. Rights may be subject to verification, exceptions, legal retention duties, and limitations.

To submit a privacy request, email info@vanward.global with “Privacy Request” in the subject line. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify identity, authority, and the scope of the request. Authorized agents must demonstrate authority where required.

12. Children

The website and restricted services are intended for business and institutional users and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly seek personal information from individuals under 18 through the website. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us so the matter can be reviewed.

13. Third-party links

Links to third-party websites or services are provided for convenience or reference. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and Vanward Global is not responsible for those practices.

14. Changes and contact

This policy may be updated to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory changes. The effective date identifies the current version.

Privacy questions may be directed to info@vanward.global or Vanward Global, 1825 NW Corporate Blvd, Suite 110, Boca Raton, Florida 33431.
