Special Notice for Residents of California

First Eagle does not sell non-public personal information or share non-public personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. While the law of certain jurisdictions provides residents of those states with data rights in some circumstances, the state protections do not apply to personal information collected about current or former investors whose information is protected by federal financial privacy law under the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (“GLBA”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-P.

  • correct or delete your personal information;
  • opt out of the sale of personal information or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising—we do not sell personal information or share personal information for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising, and so you are already opted out of such practices; and
