We implement robust technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data.
Technical Safeguards:
- 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmissions

In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you within 72 hours as required by GDPR and provide details about the breach, its potential impact, and remedial steps.
Data Retention Periods
We retain your personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy. Active account information is retained while you continue using our services. After account closure, we retain certain data for legal compliance—typically 5-7 years for financial records, KYC documents, and transaction history to meet regulatory requirements. Marketing data is retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion. When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it so it cannot be linked back to you.
Data Sharing and International Transfers
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. However, we may share data with trusted service providers:
- Payment processors (for deposit and withdrawal handling)
- Identity verification services (for KYC compliance)
- Cloud hosting providers (for secure data storage)
- Customer support platforms (for inquiry management)
- Analytics providers (for usage insights and optimization)
All service providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for specified purposes under GDPR-compliant data processing agreements.
Your personal data may be transferred to countries outside the EEA where our servers and service providers are located. When this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards including Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, compliance with data transfer regulations, and secure encryption during transmission.
