Data about a User may be obtained from third party sources, such as credit bureaus, ID verification partners, third party service providers, and Data on the blockchain. Unless specified otherwise, all Data requested by this Application is mandatory and failure to provide this Data may make it impossible for this Application to provide its services.

Mode and place of processing the Data

Methods of processing

The Owner incorporates commercially reasonable safeguards to help protect and secure Personal Data. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission, or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed 100% secure. As a result, the Owner cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information Users transmit to or from this Application, and Users provide the Owner with User Data at the Users’ own risk. If Users have any questions about security on this Application or if a User becomes aware of any unauthorized use of an Account or suspects a security breach, notify the Owner immediately via email at hello@cfxlabs.com. If the Owner’s security system is breached, the Owner will notify Users of the breach only if and to the extent required under applicable law. The Data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT enabled tools, following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the Owner, in some cases, the Data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of this Application (administration, sales, marketing, legal, system administration) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the Owner. The updated list of these parties may be requested from the Owner at any time.

Legal basis of processing‍

The Owner may process Personal Data relating to Users if one of the following applies:

Users have given their consent for one or more specific purposes. Note: Under some legislations the Owner may be allowed to process Personal Data until the User objects to such processing (“opt-out”), without having to rely on consent or any other of the following legal bases. This, however, does not apply, whenever the processing of Personal Data is subject to European data protection law;
provision of Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with the User and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof;
processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Owner is subject;
processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Owner;
processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner or by a third party.

In any case, the Owner will gladly help to clarify the specific legal basis that applies to the processing, and in particular whether the provision of Personal Data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract.

Place

The Data is processed at the Owner's operating offices and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located. Depending on the User's location, data transfers may involve transferring the User's Data to a country other than their own. To find out more about the place of processing of such transferred Data, Users can check the section containing details about the processing of Personal Data. If broader protection standards are applicable, Users are also entitled to learn about the legal basis of Data transfers to a country outside the European Union or to any international organization governed by public international law or set up by two or more countries, such as the UN, and about the security measures taken by the Owner to safeguard their Data.

If any such transfer takes place, Users can find out more by checking the relevant sections of this document or inquire with the Owner using the information provided in the contact section.

Retention time

Personal Data shall be processed and stored for as long as required by the purpose they have been collected for.

Therefore:

Personal Data collected for purposes related to the performance of a contract between the Owner and the User shall be retained until such contract has been fully performed.
Personal Data collected for the purposes of the Owner’s legitimate interests shall be retained as long as needed to fulfill such purposes. Users may find specific information regarding the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner within the relevant sections of this document or by contacting the Owner.

The Owner may be allowed to retain Personal Data for a longer period whenever the User has given consent to such processing, as long as such consent is not withdrawn. Furthermore, the Owner may be obliged to retain Personal Data for a longer period whenever required to do so for the performance of a legal obligation or upon order of an authority.

Once the retention period expires, Personal Data shall be deleted. Therefore, the right of access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after expiration of the retention period.

The purposes of processing

The Data concerning the User is collected to allow the Owner to provide its Service, comply with its legal obligations, respond to enforcement requests, protect its rights and interests (or those of its Users or third parties), detect any malicious or fraudulent activity, as well as the following: Contacting the User, User database management, remarketing and behavioral targeting, displaying content from external platforms, platform services and hosting and handling payments.

For specific information about the Personal Data used for each purpose, the User may refer to the section “Detailed information on the processing of Personal Data”.

The rights of Users

Users may exercise certain rights regarding their Data processed by the Owner. Users entitled to broader protection standards may exercise any of the rights described below. In all other cases, Users may inquire with the Owner to find out which rights apply to them.

In particular, Users have the right to do the following:

Withdraw their consent at any time. Users have the right to withdraw consent where they have previously given their consent to the processing of their Personal Data.
Object to processing of their Data. Users have the right to object to the processing of their Data if the processing is carried out on a legal basis other than consent. Further details are provided in the dedicated section below.

Verify and seek rectification. Users have the right to verify the accuracy of their Data and ask for it to be updated or corrected.

Have their Personal Data deleted or otherwise removed. Users have the right, under certain circumstances, to obtain the erasure of their Data from the Owner.
Receive their Data and have it transferred to another controller. Users have the right to receive their Data in a structured, commonly used and machine readable format and, if technically feasible, to have it transmitted to another controller without any hindrance.

Lodge a complaint. Users have the right to bring a claim before their competent data protection authority.

Details about the right to object to processing

Where Personal Data is processed for a public interest, in the exercise of an official authority vested in the Owner or for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner, Users may object to such processing by providing a ground related to their particular situation to justify the objection. Users must know that, however, should their Personal Data be processed for direct marketing purposes, they can object to that processing at any time without providing any justification. To learn whether the Owner is processing Personal Data for direct marketing purposes, Users may refer to the relevant sections of this document.

How to exercise these rights

Any requests to exercise User rights can be directed to the Owner through the contact details provided in this document. These requests can be exercised free of charge and will be addressed by the Owner as early as possible and always within one month.

Applicability of broader protection standards

While most provisions of this document concern all Users, some provisions expressly only apply if the processing of Personal Data is subject to broader protection standards.

Such broader protection standards apply when the processing:

is performed by an Owner based within the EU;
concerns the Personal Data of Users who are in the EU and is related to the offering of paid or unpaid goods or services, to such Users;
concerns the Personal Data of Users who are in the EU and allows the Owner to monitor such Users’ behavior taking place in the EU.

DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS UNDER THE GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)

‍If a User is a resident of or located within the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland or the UK, that User has certain additional data protection rights. These rights include:

The right to access, update or delete the User’s Data. Whenever made possible, a User can access, update or request deletion of the User’s Data directly within the User’s Account settings section.
The right of rectification. A User has the right to have the User’s Data rectified if that Data is inaccurate or incomplete.
The right to object. A User has the right to object to the Owner’s processing of the User’s Data.
The right of restriction. A User has the right to request that the Owner restrict the processing of the User’s Data.
The right to data portability. A User has the right to be provided with a copy of the Data the Owner has on the User in a structured, machine-readable and commonly used format.
The right to withdraw consent. A User also has the right to withdraw consent at any time where the Owner relied on the User’s consent to process the User’s Data.

To exercise any of the above rights, please contact the Owner at hello@cfxlabs.com. In order to comply with such requests, the Owner may require additional information from the User in order to confirm the User’s identity. Should a User wish to raise a concern about the use of the User’s Data (and without prejudice to any other rights the User may have), the User has the right to do so with the User’s local supervisory authority; however, the Owner hopes to assist with any queries or concerns Users may have about the Owner’s use of Data first.

For more information, please contact the applicable local data protection authority.

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information Under GDPR

The Owner’s legal basis for collecting and using the Data described in this privacy policy depends on the Data collected and the specific context in which the Data has been collected.

The Owner may process Data because:

The Owner needs to perform a contract with a User;
A User has given the Owner permission to do so;
The processing is in the Owner’s legitimate interests and it is not overridden by the User’s rights; or
To comply with the law.

Transfer of Information

Data, including Personal Data, may be transferred to – and maintained on – computers located outside of a User’s state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of the User’s jurisdiction. If a User is located outside the United States and chooses to provide Data to the Owner, please note that the Owner transfers the Data to the United States and processes it there. A User’s consent to this privacy policy followed by the User’s submission of such Data represents the User’s agreement to that transfer. The Owner will take all the steps reasonably necessary to ensure that a User’s Data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy and no transfer of a User’s Data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of such Data.
