PRIVACY NOTICE


GMO’S COMMITMENT TO ITS CUSTOMERS*

GMO maintains physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards reasonably
designed to guard its customers’ non-public personal data. GMO uses its
customers’ non-public personal data primarily to complete financial transactions
that its customers request or to make its customers aware of other financial
products and services offered by a GMO affiliated company.

Information GMO Collects About Its Customers

GMO collects non-public personal data about its customers from the following
sources:

 * Account Applications and Other Forms, which may include a customer’s name and
   address, social security number or tax identification number, total assets,
   income, and accounts at other institutions;
 * Account History, which may include information about the transactions and
   balances in accounts with GMO;
 * Correspondence, which may include written, telephonic, or electronic
   communications; and
 * Other Interactions that you may have with us (including, but not limited to,
   accessing our website).

How GMO Handles Its Customers’ Personal Data

GMO may disclose all of the non-public personal data it collects about current
or former customers to its delegates, professional advisors, service providers,
regulatory bodies, auditors, technology providers, and any duly authorized
agents or related, associated, or affiliated companies of the foregoing in
certain situations. Examples include:

 * In order to complete certain transactions or account changes that a customer
   directs, or to otherwise administer a customer’s holding in a product managed
   by GMO in accordance with the contract between the customer and GMO, it may
   be necessary to provide certain non-public personal data about that customer
   to companies, individuals, or groups that are not affiliated with GMO. For
   example, if a customer asks GMO to transfer assets from another financial
   institution, GMO will need to provide certain non-public personal data about
   that customer to the company to complete the transaction.**
 * In order to alert a customer to other financial products and services that a
   GMO affiliated company offers, or in order to perform intra-company
   accounting. GMO may share non-public personal data it has about that customer
   with a GMO affiliated company. This would include, for example, Grantham,
   Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC sharing a customer’s non-public personal data
   with GMO Australia Limited.
 * In certain instances, GMO may contract with non-affiliated companies to
   perform services for or on behalf of GMO. Where necessary, GMO will disclose
   non-public personal data it has about its customers to these third parties.
   For example, GMO may provide non-public personal data about a customer’s
   separate account to a qualified brokerage firm in order to enter into futures
   transactions. In all such cases, GMO will provide the third party with only
   the information necessary to carry out its assigned responsibilities and only
   for that purpose.10 In addition, GMO requires these third parties to treat
   GMO customers’ non-public information with the same high degree of
   confidentiality that GMO does.
 * In order to carry out statistical analysis and market research as GMO’s
   legitimate business interest.
 * In order to comply with legal and regulatory obligations applicable to the
   customer and GMO from time to time, including applicable anti-money
   laundering and counter terrorist financing legislation.
 * In connection with corporate transactions, for instance if we divest one or
   more of our funds or lines of business.
 * Finally, GMO will release non-public information about customers if that
   customer and/or individuals associated with the customer’s account have given
   specific consent, or if GMO is authorized by law to do so.

For information on the means of transfer of personal data or a copy of the
relevant safeguards, please contact privacy@gmo.com.

Please note that personal data may be retained by GMO for the duration of a
customer’s investment and afterwards in accordance with GMO’s legal and
regulatory obligations, including but not limited to GMO’s record retention
policy.

GDPR Customer Rights (not applicable to non-EU Data Subjects)

The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) (Regulation (EU) 2016/679)
provides certain rights in favor of data subjects domiciled in the European
Union (“EU”). The rights in question are as follows (the “Data Subject Rights”):

 * the right of a data subject to receive detailed information on the processing
   (by virtue of the transparency obligations on GMO);
 * the right of access to personal data;
 * the right to amend and rectify any inaccuracies in personal data;
 * the right to erase personal data (right to be forgotten);
 * the right of data portability;
 * the right to restrict Processing;
 * the right to object to Processing; and
 * the right to object to automated decision making, including profiling.

These Data Subject Rights will be exercisable by EU-domiciled data subjects
(subject to limitations as provided for in relevant data protection law). In
certain circumstances, it may not be feasible for GMO to discharge these rights
(e.g., because of the nature of the relationship between GMO and the customer).
Data subjects may make a request to GMO to exercise any of the Data Subject
Rights by contacting privacy@gmo.com. Requests shall be dealt with in accordance
with relevant data protection laws.

GMO is a data controller within the meaning of the GDPR and undertakes to hold
any personal data provided by customers in confidence and in accordance with
relevant data protection legislation. For queries, requests, or comments in
respect of this notice or the way in which GMO uses customers’ personal data,
please contact privacy@gmo.com. Customers may have the right to lodge a
complaint with the local data protection regulator in their country of residence
if they are dissatisfied with the manner in which their personal data is used by
GMO.

CCPA Customer Rights (not applicable to non-California residents)

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides certain rights in
favor of natural persons that are California residents. The rights in question
are as follows (the “CCPA Rights”):

 * the right of access to personal data;
 * the right to erase personal data (right to be forgotten); and
 * the right of data portability.

These CCPA Rights will be exercisable by natural persons that are California
residents (subject to limitations as provided for in relevant data protection
law). In certain circumstances, it may not be feasible for GMO to discharge
these rights (e.g., because of the nature of the relationship between GMO and
the customer). California residents may make a request to GMO to exercise any of
the CCPA Rights by contacting privacy@gmo.com, visiting www.gmo.com/contact, or
by calling toll-free 1-888-890-3189, and can designate an authorized agent to
make any such request. Requests shall be dealt with in accordance with relevant
data protection laws. GMO may seek to verify any requests in one of several
different ways, including but not limited to by referring to information that
GMO has on file and/or by submitting one or more follow up queries to the
customer.

GMO will not discriminate against customers (by denying services, charging
different fees, or providing a different level of service) for exercising their
CCPA Rights. For queries, requests, or comments in respect of this notice or the
way in which GMO uses customers’ personal data, please contact privacy@gmo.com.

about the cookies that GMO uses.

What are cookies?

whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

What cookies does GMO use?

GMO’s website uses the following types of cookies:

 * Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the
   operation of GMO’s website.
 * Analytical/performance cookies. These cookies allow GMO to recognize and
   count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around GMO’s
   website when they are using it. This helps GMO to determine the effectiveness
   of GMO’s website and to guide future improvements to the way GMO’s website
   works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking
   for easily.
 * Functionality cookies. These cookies are used to recognize you when you
   return to GMO’s website. This enables us to personalize our content for you
   and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of region).
 * Targeting cookies. These cookies record your visit to GMO’s website, the
   pages you have visited and the links you have followed. GMO will use this
   information to make our website more relevant to your interests. We may also
   share this information with third parties for this purpose.

How long do cookies last?

Except for strictly necessary cookies, all cookies will expire after 13 months.

What about third-party cookies?

Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and
providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) may also use
cookies, over which GMO has no control. These cookies are likely to be
analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies.

What if I don’t want you to use cookies?

When you first use GMO’s website, you will see a “pop up” cookies notice. By
using GMO’s website after accepting the cookies notice, or by browsing GMO’s
website after you have been presented with this notice, you agree to us placing
cookies on your computer in accordance with the terms described on this page.

However, you can stop our use of cookies at any time by adjusting the settings
on your browser. (The “Help” section on the menu bar of most internet browsers
will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to
make the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable
cookies altogether.)

Please note that if you use your browser settings to block all cookies
(including strictly necessary cookies) you may not be able to access all or
parts of GMO’s website.

company, but did not invest with a GMO affiliated company.
