Do we pass your information to third parties?

Personal data volunteered by visitors at this site may be shared with other FUTURE FORTUNE FUND companies. All volunteered personal data will be stored for a period of time dictated by the purpose for which it was offered and protected by security commensurate to the data’s level of sensitivity.

We may disclose your personal information if we or any of our assets are the subject of a sale or similar corporate transaction. We will ensure that the third parties who receive your personal information are required to keep it confidential.

We may also share your personal information with third parties where required for processing. For example, when applying through our website, we may work with third party suppliers in some countries to help us manage the application process.

We may disclose personal information to third parties when we reasonably believe we are required or permitted by law (such as third parties who provide services on our behalf), and in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual unlawful or otherwise prohibited activities, including, but not limited to, fraud.  We will always take steps to require such third parties to keep your personal information confidential.

Where do we send your information?

We are a global company and therefore we may transfer your personal information to countries around the world.  We will, where the country to which your data is transferred has not been found to provide an adequate level of protection, put in place appropriate safeguards to ensure your information is protected.

Transfer Of Data

Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.

If you are located outside South Africa and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including Personal Data, to South Africa and process it there.

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer. FUTURE FORTUNE FUND will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your Personal Data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data and other personal information.

Passive Data Collection by Future Fortune Fund as You Visit This Site

As you request pages on this site, your browser will send standardized information, enabling our servers to supply you with the content you requested. This information will include:

  • Information about your browser and computer operating system. We may see that we received a request from a “Mozilla/5.0” browser from a machine running “Linux”.
  • The URL of the content you requested. We will record the specific name of all content requested from this site, e.g.  https://www.futurefortunefund.com/contact-us/
  • Search Terms. We may record both search terms that you enter as you search this site as well as search terms entered into search engines which may have lead you this site.
  • IP address. When a request is made we store the IP address of the computer making the request. Though your IP address does not identify you specifically, it may provide further insights such as approximate geo location, internet service provider and/or connection speed.
  • Date/Time. When a request is made for content on futurefortunefund.com/, we record the date and time of such request.

  • Other information. Your browser may pass other standard “header” information to FUTURE FORTUNE FUND as part of its request for content.

Cookies

A cookie is a set of text in the form of a name and a value, e.g. zip=90210. Websites use cookies by requesting that a browser store (set) the cookie and resend the same cookie to the same site on subsequent visits. By the browser “remembering” this information and sending it with subsequent requests, it avoids the site having to re- ask visitors for previously provided information. For instance, upon asking for a visitor’s zip code, a website may send a signal to the visitor’s browser requesting that the visitor’s zip code be stored in a cookie and re-sent to the site on subsequent requests so that content may be tailored to the specific locale without needing to ask a second time.

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

How long do we keep your information?

We only keep your personal information for as long as we need to, to be able to use it for the reasons given in this privacy notice, and for as long as we are required to keep it by law.

Security

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of your personal information. To prevent unauthorized, access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical and electronic procedures to safeguard and secure information collected via this website.

Precautionary Warning

Please note that no data transmission over the internet is 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the security of the information that you transmit via our online services. Please note that we reserve the right to access and/or disclose the visitor’s information discussed herein (including personal information) as required by courts and/or administrative agencies and to the extent required to permit us to investigate suspected fraud, harassment or other violations of law or our Site Terms and Conditions of Use or policies.

Children’s Privacy

Protecting the privacy of the young (i.e. children under the age of 13) is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our site from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our site is structured to attract anyone under 13. Where a child has provided us with personal information, we ask that a parent or guardian of the child contact us at https://www.futurefortunefund.com/contact-us/ if they would like the information submitted by a child deleted from our records. We will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our records.

Your Rights

In certain markets (such as the EEA), you may be entitled to ask:

  1. for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, and details about how we are processing your personal information;
  2. to have any inaccuracies in your personal information corrected;
  3. if we are processing your personal information by automated means and on the basis of your consent (see “How do we use it?”, above), for us to provide your personal information to you in a structured, commonly-used and machine-readable format. You can also ask us to provide your personal information directly to a third party in this format, and, if technically feasible, we will do so; and
  4. to have your personal information erased, or for our use of it to be restricted (for example, if your preferences change, or if you don’t want us to send you the information you have requested).

Please see https://www.futurefortunefund.com/contact-us/ if you would like to exercise any of these rights.

You may also have the right to make a complaint to the relevant supervisory or data protection authority if you’re not happy with how we’ve handled your personal information.
