Acadia Green — Privacy Policy

At Acadia Green (“we”, “us”, “our”), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy describes how we handle your information when you visit our website, subscribe to our Intelligence Brief, submit a transaction, request platform access, or otherwise interact with us. It applies to all users, including investors, developers, asset managers, and energy partners.

1. Information we collect

We may collect and process the following categories of personal data:

Identity data: name, job title, company/organization name, investor or developer profile.
Contact data: email address, phone number, postal address, and professional correspondence.
Transaction data: details about deals, assets, capital requirements, or investor mandates you submit through our forms.
Technical data: IP address, browser type, device information, and usage analytics collected via cookies when you interact with our website.
Marketing and communications data: your preferences in receiving our newsletter (Intelligence Brief), event invitations, and deal flow updates.

2. How we collect your data

We use different methods to collect data from and about you:

Direct interactions: You provide data by filling in forms on our website (e.g., “Request Platform Access” or “Submit a Transaction”), subscribing to our newsletter, or corresponding with us via email or phone.
Automated technologies: As you navigate our site, we may collect technical data about your equipment and browsing actions via cookies and similar technologies.
Third-party sources: We may receive professional contact details from partners or public databases when you express interest in infrastructure capital markets, always in compliance with applicable laws.

3. How we use your information

We use your personal data for the following business purposes:

To evaluate and underwrite transactions submitted by developers or energy companies.
To provide investors with access to our proprietary deal pipeline, platform overviews, and fund documentation.
To send you the Intelligence Brief newsletter, white papers, event invitations, and market insights (you may opt out at any time).
To respond to inquiries, schedule consultations, and support our capital formation activities.
To improve our website, Titan platform analytics, and detect security incidents.
To comply with legal obligations, regulatory requests, or professional standards in the financial and infrastructure advisory sector.

4. Legal basis for processing (GDPR & international)

When we process your personal data, we rely on one or more of the following legal grounds:

Performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps: e.g., evaluating a transaction or investor mandate.
Legitimate interests: such as marketing our services to potential investors/developers, operating our website, and preventing fraud — always balanced with your privacy rights.
Consent: where required by law (e.g., for certain cookies or direct electronic marketing), we will obtain your consent before processing.
Compliance with legal obligations: anti-money laundering, tax reporting, or regulatory disclosures.

5. Sharing your data

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. However, we may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

With service providers (e.g., CRM systems, email distribution, analytics) who act as processors and are bound by confidentiality agreements.
With professional advisors (legal, compliance, accounting) where necessary to protect our rights or comply with regulations.
With potential co-investment partners or capital sources only if you are a developer submitting a deal and we match your project to qualified investors; we will notify you beforehand when feasible.
If required by law, court order, or governmental regulation, or to enforce our terms and protect the security of our platform.

Any onward transfer of data is done with appropriate safeguards, including data processing agreements that reflect GDPR and applicable privacy standards.

6. Data security & retention

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data from accidental loss, unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. These include encryption where appropriate, access controls, and regular security assessments.

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. For transaction-related data, we typically retain information for 7 years following the completion of a deal or final communication. For newsletter subscribers, we retain contact data until you unsubscribe or request deletion.

Access: request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Rectification: correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
Erasure: ask us to delete your personal data when it is no longer necessary or you withdraw consent.
Restriction: limit how we use your data while we verify a claim.
Data portability: request transfer of your data to another service provider.
Objection: object to processing based on legitimate interests (including direct marketing).
Withdraw consent: for any processing based on consent, with no effect on prior processing.
