Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Insight Global Ventures Synergy Ltd ("IGVS", "we", "us" or "our") handles personal information when you visit this website, contact us, submit an enquiry or communicate with us about an investment, project or potential business introduction.

1. Who we are

The organisation responsible for the personal information described in this policy is INSIGHT GLOBAL VENTURES SYNERGY LTD. The website is branded as Insight Global Ventures Synergy (IGVS).

2. The personal information we collect

The information you provide will depend on the form or communication you use. The website's enquiry forms request information such as:

• Your name.
• Your email address.
• Your telephone number, where requested.
• The subject or message of your enquiry and any other information you choose to include.

The website also displays a newsletter sign-up form requesting a name and email address. If you submit an enquiry or communicate with us by email or telephone, we may receive further information that you choose to provide about your organisation, role, project or investment interest.

When you visit the website, technical information may also be processed by the website's hosting, email or security systems to deliver pages, handle communications and protect the website. This can include an IP address, browser or device information, requested pages and access times.

Please do not send passwords, bank account details, identity documents, proof-of-funds documents or sensitive personal information through a general enquiry form. Where specific documents are genuinely needed for a business process, an appropriate method should be agreed separately.

3. How we use personal information

We use the information described above for purposes connected with the activities presented on this website, including:

• Responding to enquiries and communicating with investors, project owners and other business contacts.
• Understanding the nature of an enquiry and considering whether it is relevant to IGVS's investment and project facilitation activities.
• Managing requested business introductions and, where appropriate, coordinating initial opportunity screening or due diligence.
• Arranging meetings and managing communications and business relationships.
• Sending newsletter updates where you have subscribed and where the applicable marketing rules allow us to do so.
• Operating, maintaining and protecting the website and dealing with spam, misuse or security issues.
• Meeting legal obligations and establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.

4. Our lawful bases

Where UK data protection law applies, we use personal information only where an appropriate lawful basis applies. Depending on the circumstances, this may be:

• Legitimate interests: to respond to relevant business enquiries, assess potential opportunities, manage business communications and protect the website. We consider the impact on individuals and their rights when relying on this basis.
• Steps requested before a contract or performance of a contract: where you ask IGVS to take steps in connection with a potential agreement, or where processing is needed to perform an agreement to which you are a party.
• Legal obligation: where we need to process information to comply with a legal requirement.
• Consent: where consent is the appropriate legal basis, including for newsletter communications where required. You can withdraw consent at any time.

5. When we share personal information

We may share relevant personal information where it is necessary for the purposes explained in this policy. This may include sharing information with:

• Service providers supporting website hosting, email, IT, security and communications.
• Professional advisers, including legal, accounting or compliance advisers, where they need the information to advise IGVS.
• Investors, project owners or other relevant business parties where a business introduction has been requested or agreed and sharing the information is necessary to progress it.
• Courts, regulators, public authorities or law-enforcement bodies where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect legal rights.

We share only information that is relevant to the purpose for which it is being provided. We do not publish personal contact details as part of a general introduction without an appropriate basis to do so.

6. International use and transfers

IGVS describes its work as supporting investment, project partnerships and commercial opportunities across Africa. A business enquiry or requested introduction may therefore involve people or organisations located outside the United Kingdom. Where personal information is transferred outside the UK, we will use a transfer mechanism or safeguard required by applicable data protection law.

7. How long we keep information

We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. The period depends on the nature of the information and the reason it is held. We take account of whether an enquiry or business relationship is ongoing, whether the information is needed for appropriate business records, whether a legal obligation applies and whether the information may be needed to establish or defend a legal claim.

8. Keeping information secure

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. You should avoid sending sensitive documents or financial information through general website forms or ordinary email unless an appropriate process has been agreed.

9. Your data protection rights

Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis used, you may have the right to:

• Request access to the personal information we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Ask us to erase personal information in certain circumstances.
• Ask us to restrict how we use your information in certain circumstances.
• Object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing.
• Receive information you provided to us in a portable format where the right applies.
• Withdraw consent where our processing is based on consent. Withdrawal does not affect processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

To make a request or ask a question about this policy, email info@igvs.co.uk. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

10. Newsletter communications

The website displays a newsletter sign-up form requesting your name and email address. If you use it, those details are used for the newsletter purpose described on the form. You can ask us to stop sending newsletter communications by emailing info@igvs.co.uk.

11. Google Fonts and external websites

The website code reviewed for this policy loads the Arimo typeface from Google Fonts. When your browser requests the font files, Google's servers receive your IP address so that the files can be delivered. Google states that the Google Fonts API does not use this data to create profiles of end users or for advertising. Google's own privacy information applies to information processed by Google. You can read it in the Google Privacy Policy.

The Contact page also provides a link to Google Maps. If you follow that link, you leave the IGVS website and Google's terms and privacy information apply to your use of that service. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our website, activities or data-handling practices change, or where an update is needed to reflect changes in applicable law. The date at the top of this page shows when this version was last updated.
