Privacy Policy

Glane Capital (“Glane Capital,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides financial advisory and capital solutions services to founder-led companies. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal data when you visit glanecapital.com (the “Site”) or otherwise interact with us through the Site, including by submitting an enquiry.

This Policy is intended to comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation and Data Protection Act 2018, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), and, where applicable, U.S. state privacy laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”). It does not cover personal or financial information we may collect separately from advisory or capital solutions clients under a signed engagement letter or facility agreement. That information is governed by the terms of the relevant client agreement.

1. Who We Are

Glane Capital is based in London, United Kingdom, and is the data controller responsible for the personal data described in this Policy. Contact details are provided in Section 12 below.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information you provide to us

When you use the “Enquire” form or otherwise contact us, we collect:

• Name (required)
• Email address (required)
• Company name (if provided)
• The content of your message and any other information you choose to include (for example, details about your business, financing needs, or transaction plans)

If you contact us by email, telephone, or through a scheduled call, we may also retain records of that correspondence.

2.2 Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, we and our analytics provider automatically collect certain technical data via cookies and similar technologies, including:

• IP address and approximate location
• Browser type, device type, and operating system
• Pages viewed, referring/exit pages, and time spent on the Site
• Date and time of access and other usage statistics

3. Cookies and Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve its content and performance. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log and visitor behaviour information in an anonymous or pseudonymous form.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Information on how Google collects and processes data is available at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

Disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site, though the Site will generally remain usable.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use personal data collected through the Site to:

• Respond to enquiries and assess whether we can assist with your financial advisory or capital needs
• Communicate with you about our services
• Maintain records of our business relationships and correspondence
• Understand and improve how visitors use the Site
• Comply with legal, regulatory, and accounting obligations, including anti-money laundering and know-your-client requirements where applicable
• Detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent or unauthorised activity

5. Legal Basis for Processing (UK/EU GDPR)

Where GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Legitimate interests – to respond to enquiries, operate and improve the Site, and manage our business development, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights
• Contract – to take steps at your request before entering into an engagement, or to perform a contract with you
• Consent – where required, for example for certain non-essential cookies
• Legal obligation – to comply with applicable law, including financial services and anti-money laundering regulation

6. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell personal data. We may share personal data with:

• Service providers who support our operations, such as email, hosting, and analytics providers (including Google), acting on our instructions and under appropriate confidentiality and data protection terms
• Professional advisers such as lawyers, accountants, and regulators, where necessary
• Prospective co-investors, lenders, or transaction counterparties, but only with your knowledge in the context of a specific engagement, and not merely on the basis of a website enquiry
• Authorities, where required by law, regulation, or legal process, or to protect our rights, property, or safety
• A successor entity, in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets

7. International Data Transfers

As a firm operating across the UK, US, and EU, personal data we hold may be accessed or processed in countries outside your own, including the United States (for example, by our email or analytics providers). Where we transfer personal data outside the UK or European Economic Area, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or transfer to jurisdictions recognised as providing an adequate level of protection.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data collected via the Site for as long as necessary to respond to your enquiry, pursue any resulting business relationship, and comply with our legal, accounting, and regulatory obligations. Enquiry records that do not lead to an engagement are generally retained for no longer than 24 months, after which they are deleted or anonymised, unless a longer period is required by law.

9. Your Rights

9.1 UK/EU residents

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
• Request erasure of your data
• Object to, or request restriction of, certain processing
• Request data portability
• Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent
• Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority – in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk)

9.2 California residents (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion of your personal information, to correct inaccurate information, and to non-discrimination for exercising these rights. Glane Capital does not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising as those terms are defined under the CCPA.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 12. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

10. Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for business use and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can delete it.

11. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
