6. USER RIGHTS

As a data subject, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. Below, we describe the various rights you have and how you can exercise them.

  1. A) Right of access: You may, at any time, request access to the personal data we hold that relates to you. Please note that this entitles you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you so that you can check that it is correct and ensure that we are processing that personal data lawfully. It is not a right that allows you to request personal data about other people, nor is it a right to request specific documents from us that do not relate to your personal data. You may exercise this right at any time by writing to us using the contact details set out here and telling us that you are making a subject access request. It is not necessary to complete a specific form to make this type of request.
  2. B) Right to rectification and deletion: You may, at any time, request that we correct personal information we hold about you that you believe to be incorrect or inaccurate. Please note that we may ask you to verify any new information you provide to us and we may take our own steps to verify that the new information you have provided to us is correct.

    You may also ask us to delete personal data that we control if you no longer believe we should hold it (you may have heard this right described as the “right to be forgotten”). While we will do our best to honor your request and your personal data, it may not always be possible to delete all of your personal data, as there may be legal requirements to keep certain personal data or technical limitations to the data we can delete; for example, we cannot honor requests to delete records and information recorded on the blockchain, including but not limited to your chosen username, transaction history, and account balance.

    There may also be legitimate interests in retaining certain data, including, but not limited to, if the data is necessary for the application to function. If this is the case, we will continue to process this data.

    You may exercise this right at any time by using the contact details detailed here and requesting that your personal data be rectified or erased and on what basis you request this. If you would like us to replace inaccurate data with new data, you must tell us what this new data is. You do not need to complete a specific form to make this type of request.
  3. C) Right to restrict processing: Where we process your personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest, you have the right to ask us to stop processing it in that way if you believe that continuing to do so would affect your fundamental rights and freedoms or if you believe that those legitimate interests are not valid.
  4. D) Right to stop receiving notifications: You may ask us to stop sending you various types of communications, advertisements, etc.
  5. E) Withdrawal of consent: Where we rely on consent to process your personal data, you may withdraw consent at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide you with certain products or services. If this is the case, we will notify you at the time you withdraw your consent.
  6. F) Exercising Your Rights: When you write to us to exercise your rights, we have the right to ask you to prove that you are who you say you are. We may ask you to provide copies of relevant identification documents to help us verify your identity.

    It will help us process your request if you clearly indicate what right you wish to exercise and, if applicable, why you are exercising it. The clearer and more specific you can be, the more quickly and efficiently we will be able to deal with your request. If you do not provide us with sufficient information, we may delay action on your request until you have provided us with additional information (and where this is the case, we will tell you).
