Under the Reg D 506(b) exemption, investors self-certify accreditation status. Update an Investor's accreditation status to enable them to view and interact with the private company marketplace. Please note that investors' accreditation status automatically expires after 1 year (365 calendar days). Investors should be prompted to re-update their accreditation status in 1 year intervals. Investor PII does not "expire" and is persistent unless updated via API.
