Introduction

GO CAPITAL GROUP LTD is committed to safeguarding and processing personal information (“PI”), including sensitive personal information (“SPI”)1, in line with all applicable privacy and data protection laws. Many of our offices are located in countries with laws governing the processing of PI. “GO CAPITAL GROUP LTD”, “we”, “us” or “our” means GO CAPITAL GROUP LTD., each of the direct or indirect subsidiaries of GO CAPITAL GROUP LTD.
