Effective 1/1/2024

​

This Privacy Policy applies to our services available under the domain and subdomains www.newportasiallc.com (the “Site”).  We recognize that privacy is important to our users, so we design and operate our Site with the protection of your privacy in mind.  This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we may gather when you visit our Site or use our services, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard your information. 

​By visiting the Site, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.  If you do not agree, do not use or access the Site.

By accepting the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use, you expressly consent to our use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.  This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and subject to the Terms of Use.  

Overview

The information we gather through our Site is protected by our general policies and procedures concerning confidentiality, proprietary data and privacy of customer personal information.  Generally, we collect non-public personal information about our clients and investors from the following sources:
   *    Information we receive from current or potential clients or investors on applications or other forms, including the information we collect on the Site, and
   *    Information about current or potential clients’ or investors’ transactions with us, our affiliates or others.
Our policy is that:
   *    We do not disclose any non-public personal information about any user of our Site to anyone, except as permitted by law.  Disclosures that are permitted by law include disclosures that are necessary to effect, administer or enforce a transaction that an investor or client requests or authorizes. Other examples of disclosures that are permitted by law are disclosures to our accountants, auditors and lawyers, disclosures to regulators that examine our business and disclosures that clients or investors specifically request.  We do not provide personal information about clients or investors to mailing list vendors or solicitors for any purpose.
   *    We restrict access to non-public personal information about our users to employees and service providers who need to know that information to provide services to our clients or to operate our business.

Collection of Information
In general, you can browse the non-password protected sections of the Site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself.  However, we may automatically track certain information that your browser makes available whenever you visit a website. This information includes your Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, one or more files that may uniquely identify your browser and most recent URL from which you came to our Site.  We may use this information to do internal research on our users’ demographics, interests and behavior to better understand, protect and serve you and our clients.  
 

We also may use data collection devices such as “cookies” on certain pages of the Site to help analyze our web page flow, measure effectiveness, and promote trust and safety.  “Cookies” are small files placed on your hard drive that assist us in providing our services.  We may offer certain features that are only available through the use of a “cookie.”  Cookies can also help us provide information that is targeted to your interests.  Most cookies are “session cookies,” meaning that they are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session.  You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although in that case you may not be able to use certain features on the Site and you may be required to reenter your password more frequently during a session.

If you apply for a password to access password-restricted areas on this Site, you must provide to us your name, email address, and any other information we request.

Use and Disclosure of Information
We use the information we collect to improve our operations and facilitate and improve the services you request.  We may use information collected from you to measure interest, customize your experience and enforce our Terms of Use.  

You agree that we may use personal information about you to analyze Site usage, improve our content and product offerings and customize the Site’s content, layout, and services.  These uses improve the Site and better tailor it to meet your needs, so as to provide you with a smooth, efficient, safe and customized experience while using the Site.

In connection with providing our services, it also may be necessary for us to share personal information about you with other third parties to help us process transactions relating to your account, including, but not limited to, asset transfers from a financial institution and processing or administering investment transactions and portfolios.  In certain instances, we may contract with third parties that are not affiliated with us to perform services for us, and, if necessary, we may disclose information about you to those third parties solely for the purpose of carrying out their assigned responsibilities.  In those circumstances, we require those third parties to treat your private information with the same degree of confidentiality that we do and to comply with the GDPR (defined below), as applicable.  In some instances, the third-party service provider may collect information directly from you.  In these cases, you will be notified of the involvement of the service provider, and all additional information you provide them and their additional uses will be strictly up to you.  If you provide additional information to a service provider directly, their use of your personal information is governed by their applicable privacy policy.

We may also share information about you if we believe that disclosure is required under law.  For example, we may need to disclose information in response to a subpoena or to cooperate with regulatory or law enforcement authorities.  

We cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personal information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.  By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or service providers may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the Site.  Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

General Data Protection Regulation.
The European Union (the “EU”) has introduced a data protection regime with extra-territorial effect in the form of the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation 2016/679) (“GDPR”). As we do not have an establishment in the EU, do not process the personal data of individuals in the EU in relation to the offering of fund interests to such individuals and do not monitor the behavior of individuals in the EU, we consider ourselves to be outside the scope of the GDPR.

Security
Your information is stored on our servers located in the United States.  We use procedural and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure, which may include encryption, “firewalls” and Secure Socket Layers.  

It is possible, however, that a third party will circumvent such security measures, and we do not guarantee that our security measures will successfully prevent third parties from accessing the information we collect.  In the event of a security breach involving your personal information, we will make any legally required disclosures to you, consistent with the legitimate interests of law enforcement, or any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system.

Phishing
Identity theft and the practice currently known as “phishing” are of great concern to us. Safeguarding information to help protect you from identity theft is a top priority. We do not and will not, at any time, request your username, password, credit card information or national identification number in an unsolicited e-mail or telephone communication. For more information about phishing, visit the Federal Trade Commission’s website.
