Privacy Policy

Last updated June 16th, 2021

This Privacy Policy sets forth the privacy practices of Engine No. 1 (“Engine No. 1.,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) with respect to our collection, use, sharing, and disclosure of Personal Information, including, but not limited to, Personal Information collected through this website (the “Site”), how it is used, and the circumstances under which it may be shared and disclosed. This Privacy Policy constitutes a legally binding agreement between you and Engine No. 1 that conditions your use of the Site, where and as permitted by applicable law.

If you are a California resident, please review our California Privacy Note.

The Personal Information we may collect from you may include personally identifiable information including names, residential or business addresses, or other contact details, signature, nationality, tax identification or passport number, date of birth, place of birth, photographs, copies of identification documents, bank account details, information about assets or net worth, credit history, information on investment activities, or other personal information, such ascertain special categories of personal data (including, where relevant, information on political affiliations, ethnic origin, or criminal convictions), as specified under applicable law, that may be contained in the relevant materials, documents, or obtained through background searches.

2. Sources of Personal Information

We may collect Personal Information from:

  • Your communications with us;
  • Your transactions with us;
  • Services providers; and
  • Affiliates.

3. How we Use Personal Information

We use Personal Information for the following business purposes:

  • To provide our products and services and serve your investment needs;
  • To provide customer service and process your requests and inquires;
  • To offer new products and services;
  • To process subscriptions;
  • To open an advisory account or securities brokerage account;

4. How we Share Personal Information

Your privacy is important to us. Engine No. 1 does not disclose any Personal Information to nonaffiliated third parties, except to service or manage a client’s account or as permitted by law. We do not sell any Personal Information.

Every client has the right to direct Engine No. 1 not to disclose the Personal Information about that client to a nonaffiliated third party. If a client would like to exercise its right to opt out of this Privacy Policy, each client must provide a written statement exercising that right. This right to opt out may be exercised at any time and will remain in effect until written notice revoking said right is received by Engine No. 1 from the client. However, in the event Engine No. 1 encounters circumstances where it is compelled by law to disclose a client’s Personal Information, Engine No. 1 must provide, to non-affiliated third parties, a client’s Personal Information even if the client has exercised its right to opt out.

5. How we Protect Personal Information

Engine No. 1 seeks to carefully safeguard Personal Information. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Personal Information is kept secure and safe from any loss or unauthorized disclosure or use. We restrict access to our client’s Personal Information to employees requiring that Personal Information to provide our products or services.

6. Notice for Residents of the European Economic Area and United Kingdom

Engine No. 1 does not currently offer its products or services to natural persons resident in the European Union or the United Kingdom (“EEA/UK”) and, accordingly, is not required to comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Any personal data provided to us by you will be processed in the United States or other jurisdictions outside the EEA/UK which may not afford the same protections of personal data as under the GDPR.
