Whenever we manage personal information, we implement measures to ensure the application of appropriate standards of privacy practices and security.

The thepatriotgain.com Group Privacy Policy outlines the reasons for collecting personal information, the methods of collection, the purposes for which it is used, storage procedures, and potential recipients with whom it may be shared. The Policy also provides details on how you can access or rectify the information we have about you, inquire further, register complaints, and includes information regarding our websites and online activities

For the majority of our products and services, it is essential for us to gather 'personal information,' including your name, identification details, photos, contact information, and transactional details. Additionally, we may require the collection of other personal particulars (such as gender, marital status, and financial information) and other identifiable information.

Typically, we refrain from collecting sensitive information about you unless mandated or allowed by law, or with your explicit consent. The collection of sensitive information will be limited to what is pertinent to the product, service, or function for which you are seeking our engagement. Any such collection, if applicable, will be communicated to you. For instance, certain forms of biometric data may be collected, stored, and utilized for access and verification procedures, as well as fraud prevention. Additionally, to manage risks related to COVID-19 and adhere to local legal obligations, we may collect, store, use, or process certain forms of health information.

We will not collect sensitive information about you where this is expressly prohibited by local law.

Sensitive information includes information relating to:

• race
• political or religious beliefs
• sexual orientation and sexual life
• criminal convictions
• membership of professional or trade associations or unions

We collect personal information about you directly from you — this can be in person, in documents you give us, from telephone calls, emails, competitions you enter, your access to our website or from transactions you make. We take reasonable steps to be transparent about how and why we collect personal data.

We keep personal information in physical and electronic records, at our premises and the premises of our service providers. Where this occurs, we take steps to protect the security and integrity of personal information.

For example, we may from time to time use your personal information to inform you or your employer of investment opportunities or to provide information about products and services which we expect may be of interest to you. However, if you don't want to receive such communications you can tell us by using any of the methods listed below.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that all information we hold is as accurate as possible. You are able to contact us at any time and ask for its correction if you feel the information we have about you is inaccurate or incomplete.

If other organisations provide support services, we require them to take appropriate technical and organisational measures to secure the privacy of the information provided to them.
