This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your information through your use of our Services when you access the Services through your devices.

 

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully and make sure you fully understand our practices with respect to your data before using our Services. If you have read this Policy, fully understand it, and do not agree with our practices, you must stop using our digital assets and services. By using our Services, you acknowledge the terms of this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of the Services constitutes your acceptance of this Privacy Policy and any changes to it.

What data do we collect?

Below you will find an overview of the data we may collect:

  • Unidentified and non-identifiable information you provide during the registration process or that is collected through your use of our services ("Non-Personal Information"). Non-Personal Information does not identify who collected it. The Non-Personal Information we collect primarily consists of technical and aggregated usage information.

  • Individually identifiable information, meaning anything that can be used to identify you or could reasonably be expected to identify you ("Personal Information"). The Personal Information we collect through our Services may include information requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses, and more. When we combine Personal Information with Non-Personal Information, we treat it as Personal Information while it remains combined.

​

How do we collect data?

Below are the main methods we use to collect data:

  • We collect data when you use our services. This means that when you visit our digital assets and use services, we may collect, record, and store usage, session, and related information.

  • We collect data that you provide to us, for example when you contact us directly through a communication channel (e.g. an email with a comment or feedback).

  • We may collect information from third-party sources as described below.

  • We collect information that you provide to us when you sign in to our Services through a third-party service such as Facebook or Google.

​

Why do we collect this data?

We may use your information for the following purposes:

  • to provide and operate our services;

  • to develop, customize and improve our services;

  • to respond to your feedback, requests and requests and to offer assistance;

  • to analyze requirements and usage patterns;

  • for other internal, statistical and research purposes;

  • to improve our data security and fraud prevention capabilities;

  • to investigate violations and enforce our terms and policies and to comply with applicable law, regulations or government requests;

  • To send you updates, news, promotional materials, and other information related to our services. For promotional emails, you can choose whether you want to continue receiving them. If you do not want to, simply click the unsubscribe link in those emails.

 

Who do we share this data with?

We may share your information with our service providers to operate our services (e.g., storing data through third-party hosting services, providing technical support, etc.).

 

We may also disclose your information in the following circumstances: (i) to investigate, detect, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities or other wrongdoing; (ii) to establish or exercise our rights of defense; (iii) to protect our rights, property, or personal safety, as well as the safety of our users or the public; (iv) in the event of a change of control of us or one of our affiliates (through a merger, acquisition, or purchase of (substantially) all of our assets, or otherwise); (v) to collect, retain, and/or manage your information through authorized third parties (such as cloud service providers) as reasonably necessary for our business; (vi) to work with third parties to improve your user experience. For the avoidance of doubt, we may transmit, share, or otherwise use non-personal information to third parties at our sole discretion.

​

Where do we store the data?

Non-personal data:

Please note that our companies, as well as our trusted partners and service providers, are located around the world. For the purposes explained in this Privacy Policy, we store and process any non-personal information we collect in different jurisdictions.

 

Personal data:

Personal data may be maintained, processed, and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel, and to the extent necessary for the proper provision of our Services and/or as required by law (as further explained below), in other jurisdictions.

​

How long will the data be retained?

Please note that we will retain the information we collect for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

We may correct, supplement or delete inaccurate or incomplete data at any time at our sole discretion.

​

How do we protect the data?

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer our services to you. Your data may be stored via our hosting provider's data storage, databases, and general applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall and provide secure HTTPS access to most areas of their services.

All payment options offered by us and our hosting provider for our digital assets comply with the PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) regulations of the PCI Security Standards Council. This is a collaboration between brands such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card data (including physical, electronic, and procedural measures) by our store and our service providers.

Notwithstanding the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and do not guarantee absolute protection and security of any information you upload, post or otherwise transmit to us or others.

For this reason, we ask you to use secure passwords and, if possible, not to send us or others any confidential information whose disclosure you believe could cause you significant or lasting harm. Furthermore, because email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we ask that you do not share any confidential information through any of these communication channels.

​

We will only use your personal information for the purposes set out in the Privacy Policy and only if we are satisfied that:

  • the use of your personal data is necessary to perform or enter into a contract (e.g. to provide you with the Services themselves or customer or technical support);

  • the use of your personal data is necessary to comply with relevant legal or regulatory obligations, or

  • the use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that this is done at all times in a manner that is proportionate and respects your data protection rights).

 

As an EU resident you can:

  • request confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you are being processed and request access to your stored personal data and certain additional information;

  • request to receive personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format;

  • request the correction of your personal data stored by us;

  • request the deletion of your personal data;

  • object to the processing of your personal data by us;

  • request the restriction of processing of your personal data, or

  • lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

 

Please note, however, that these rights are not absolute and may be subject to our own legitimate interests and regulatory requirements. If you have general questions about the personal information we collect and how we use it, please contact us as indicated below.

In the course of providing the Services, we may transfer data across borders to affiliates or other third parties and from your country/jurisdiction to other countries/jurisdictions worldwide. By using the Services, you consent to the transfer of your data outside the EEA.

​

If you are located in the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if we are satisfied that an adequate or equivalent level of personal data protection exists. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have appropriate contractual arrangements in place with our third parties to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to minimize the risk of unlawful use, alteration, deletion, loss, or theft of your personal data, and that these third parties act in compliance with applicable laws at all times.

​

Updates or changes to the Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time at our sole discretion; the version posted on the Site will always be the most current (see "Effective Date"). We encourage you to check this Privacy Policy frequently for changes. If any changes are material, we will post a notice on our Site. Your continued use of the Services after we post notice of changes on our Site will constitute your acknowledgment of and acceptance of the changes to the Privacy Policy and your agreement to be bound by the terms of those changes.
