COOKIE POLICY
This Cookie Policy explains how Quassar Capital, L.P. (“Quassar Capital,” “Quassar,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with its website.
This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small data files or identifiers that may be stored on or accessed from a browser or device when a user visits a website.
We may also use pixels, tags, local storage and other technologies that perform functions similar to cookies. References in this Policy to “cookies” include such similar technologies where appropriate.
Cookies may be set directly through our website (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties whose technologies or services are used in connection with the website (“third-party cookies”).
Cookies may operate for the duration of a browsing session or remain on a browser or device for a specified period after a session ends, depending upon their purpose and configuration.
2. How We Use Cookies
Quassar Capital may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- operate, maintain and secure the website;
- provide website functionality;
- maintain sessions and applicable user preferences;
- remember cookie and privacy choices;
- understand how visitors interact with the website;
- measure website usage and performance;
- identify, diagnose and address technical issues;
- improve website functionality, performance and content; and
- support authorized third-party integrations and digital services.
The particular cookies and similar technologies deployed on the website may change as our website, service providers and supporting technologies evolve.
3. Categories of Cookies
Depending upon the technologies deployed on the website from time to time, cookies may fall within one or more of the following categories.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies support functions necessary for the website to operate securely and provide functionality requested by a user. They may support security, fraud prevention, network management, session management, authentication, maintenance of privacy or consent preferences and other essential website functionality.
Where permitted by applicable law, strictly necessary cookies may operate without optional consent because the relevant functionality cannot reasonably be provided without them.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics and performance technologies help us understand how visitors interact with the website and evaluate website operation and performance.
Depending upon the technologies deployed, they may collect information concerning pages visited, website interactions, navigation patterns, referring sources, browser or device characteristics, session information and technical performance.
Where consent or another user choice is required by applicable law, these technologies will be used in accordance with the applicable consent or preference mechanism.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies support enhanced or personalized website functionality and may remember selections or preferences made by a user.
Where these technologies are not strictly necessary and applicable law requires consent or another user choice, they will be used in accordance with the applicable consent or preference mechanism.
Disabling functional cookies may affect the availability or operation of certain website features.
Advertising and Targeting Cookies
Where deployed, advertising or targeting technologies may be used to measure digital communications, understand audience engagement, evaluate campaigns or support interactions with third-party platforms.
Where such technologies are non-essential and consent is required by applicable law, they will not be activated through the website except in accordance with the user’s applicable consent or preference.
The description of this category does not mean that advertising or targeting technologies are necessarily deployed on the website at any particular time.
4. Third-Party Technologies and Integrations
Certain website functionality may involve technologies or services provided by third parties, including services supporting analytics, communications, email and CRM functionality, website infrastructure, Investor Portal connectivity, professional networking or social-media integrations.
Where a third-party technology is deployed on the website, the relevant provider may receive information concerning a user’s browser, device or interaction, depending upon the technology involved, its configuration, the user’s applicable preferences and applicable law.
Quassar Capital maintains a presence on third-party platforms that may include Instagram, X, Threads, LinkedIn and Facebook. The existence of an official Quassar Capital account or profile on a third-party platform does not, by itself, mean that cookies, pixels or other tracking technologies operated by that platform are deployed on the Quassar Capital website.
Where a social-media or other third-party integration is actually implemented on the website, information may be processed by the relevant provider in accordance with the technology deployed and, where applicable, the provider’s own terms and privacy practices.
Quassar Capital does not control processing undertaken independently by unaffiliated third parties.
5. Current Cookie Information
The cookies and similar technologies actually deployed on the website may change as technologies are added, removed, reconfigured or replaced.
Current information concerning technologies deployed on the website, including available information regarding their provider, purpose, category and duration, is made available through the website’s cookie-consent or preference-management interface, as applicable.
That interface should be consulted for the current operational inventory of cookies and similar technologies and for the preference controls available in connection with them.
The presence of a category or type of technology in this Cookie Policy does not, by itself, mean that a particular cookie, provider or technology within that category is currently deployed.
6. Consent and Preference Management
Where required by applicable law, Quassar Capital provides users with a mechanism to manage applicable non-essential cookies and similar technologies.
Depending upon applicable law and the technologies in use, users may be able to accept or reject non-essential technologies, make selections by category and subsequently change their preferences.
Technologies that are strictly necessary for website operation, security, maintenance of consent choices or functionality requested by a user may remain active where permitted by applicable law.
Where consent is required, the user’s consent applies only to the technologies and purposes covered by the applicable consent mechanism and does not constitute consent to unrelated processing.
7. Changing or Withdrawing Preferences
Users may change applicable cookie preferences through the cookie settings or preference control made available on the website.
Where processing depends upon consent, a user may withdraw that consent through the applicable preference mechanism. Withdrawal will apply prospectively in accordance with applicable law and the technical operation of the relevant technologies.
Changing a preference may not automatically remove cookies or other information previously stored on a browser or device. Users may separately delete stored cookies through their browser or device settings.
Preferences may need to be selected again if cookies or local storage are deleted, a different browser or device is used, or the preference-management technology can no longer recognize a previously stored choice.
8. Browser and Device Controls
Most browsers provide controls that allow users to block, restrict or delete cookies.
Browsers, devices and third-party platforms may also provide privacy, tracking or storage controls independently of the preference mechanism maintained on the Quassar Capital website.
The availability, operation and legal effect of such controls may vary by browser, device, technology and jurisdiction.
Blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect website functionality, preferences, authentication, security features or other functionality.
Browser or device controls may not necessarily control all forms of storage, access or similar technologies used in connection with a website.
9. Personal Information and Cookies
Depending upon the technology deployed, information collected through cookies or similar technologies may include Internet Protocol address, browser or device information, operating system, pages visited, referring sources, dates and times of access, website interactions, session information, identifiers and technical or performance information.
Some information collected through cookies or similar technologies may constitute personal information under applicable law.
Where information collected through cookies or similar technologies constitutes personal information, Quassar Capital processes that information in accordance with its Privacy Policy and applicable law.
10. Investor Portal and External Services
An Investor Portal or other third-party or externally hosted service accessible through the Quassar Capital website may use cookies or similar technologies independently from the public Quassar Capital website.
Such services may be subject to separate terms, privacy notices, consent mechanisms, cookie policies or other disclosures.
Users should review the information and controls presented when accessing those services.
Cookie preferences selected on the public Quassar Capital website may not apply to technologies independently operated by an external platform, service or separately hosted environment.
11. Changes to This Cookie Policy
Quassar Capital may amend this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in website technology, service providers, our practices, applicable legal requirements or other circumstances.
The current version of this Cookie Policy will be made available on the website.
