We use the information about you to carry out our obligations arising from the laws and regulation applicable to us or any contracts entered into between you and us and to provide you with the information, products and services that you request from us (e.g. to establish and manage your account with us or register you to our events); to provide you with customer service, including response to your inquiries or complaints; to provide you with marketing information about other goods and services we offer that are similar to those that you have already purchased or enquired about if you have agreed to receive such information through an opt-in mechanism or as an existing customer; or to keep you up to date about general AH Capital news. We also use your information collected from the website to personalise your repeated visits to our website. To that effect, we may combine data collected from one source (e.g. a website) with data collected from another source (e.g. an offline event), so as to provide us with a more complete view of you as a customer and serve you better and with greater personalisation, such as: improving and personalizing your experience on websites; improve our offers; provide you with marketing communications where you have opted-in to receiving such communications (unless you are an existing customer, in which case you may always opt out of such communication in the future at any time). As an investment brokerage firm, we are bound by the strong principles of the industry related to our clients. This being said, within the limits set by the law or the contract you have signed with us, we may be allowed to share your information with affiliated companies within the AH Capital Group, third party service providers, business partners (such as introducing brokers, assets managers, banks and other financial institutions), judicial bodies or regulators.

We will retain your information for as long as needed to provide you with our services or as long as your account is active. We may also retain and use your information in order to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, and enforce our agreements.

We use three types of cookies on our website: essential cookies, performance cookies and tailored content cookies.

This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example by making sure users are finding what they need easily. Tailored content cookies allow us to tailor the content of our website to suit you and link with other websites, such as social media websites. For example, instead of displaying promotional messages about products you already have, they let us show you other services you might be interested in. We only use tailored content cookies subject to your prior opt in to that effect and as set by our trusted business partners to provide you with AH Capital products and services and will only show you AH Capital branded advertisements on our website.
