When you visit the Coinwerx Site, you may provide us with two types of information: personal information that you voluntarily disclose or that is collected on an individual basis; and information collected automatically when you use the Coinwerx Site or our Services including, without limitation, information that we obtain from our partners (collectively, the “Information”).

We collect and process this Information for the purpose of providing Services and information about our Services to you and/or to comply with legal requirements. You may be asked to provide personal information anytime you are in contact with us. Any information you provide to us that is not required is voluntary. You are free to choose whether to provide us with the types of personal information requested, but we may not be able to serve you as effectively or offer you all of our Services when you choose not to share certain information with us.

Personal Information

Personal information is data that can be used to identify you directly or indirectly, or to contact you. This Privacy Policy covers all personal information that you voluntarily submit to us and that we obtain from our partners. This Privacy Policy does not apply to anonymized data, as it cannot be used to identify you. Personal information means any information that is unique to you, such as your:

•  full legal name, date of birth, age, nationality, gender, signature, utility bills, phone number, email address and home address
•  passport or other photo identification cards such as a driver’s license or national identification card, other photographs like selfies;
•  user ID, security questions, authentication data, transaction information, financial information, cryptocurrency or wallet addresses; and
•  other personal information you choose to provide. With your permission, we may also access other personal information on your device, such as your phone book, calendar or messages, in order to provide Services to you. If authorized by you, we may also access profile and other information from services like Facebook. We may also obtain information about you in order to comply with our legal obligations, such as anti-money laundering laws. We may obtain from third party sources as required or permitted by applicable law, such as public databases, credit bureaus, ID verification partners, channel partners, joint marketing partners, and social media platforms. For example, we obtain information about you from public databases and ID verification partners for purposes of verifying your identity when you sign up for our Services. Our ID verification partners use a combination of government records and publicly available information about you to verify your identity. Such information includes your name, address, job role, public employment profile, credit history, status on any sanction lists maintained by public authorities, and other relevant data. Pursuant to European Economic Area (“EEA”) data protection law, our lawful basis for processing such data is compliance with our legal obligations. In some cases, we may process additional data about you to ensure our Services are not being used fraudulently or for other illicit activities. By providing us with your personal information, you also consent for us to collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. In addition to providing the foregoing information, if you choose to correspond further with us through e-mail or through the “contact” section of the Coinwerx Site or through events and public social networking platforms, we may retain, use and disclose the content of your messages together with your user ID or e-mail address and our responses.
