Please note that some of them act on our behalf as our processors and some act as independent controllers of your personal data.

We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of the third parties.

Please note that due to the nature of the blockchain technology your use of the blockchain networks in connection with certain Services, depending on the blockchain protocol, may result in recording of some of your personal data on-chain in a public blockchain network. This means that your personal data could be identified directly, when combined with other data, or when anonymous data is de-anonymized. As a result, third parties that have access to such a network may potentially access your personal data.
1.7.
Data transfers outside the EEA
The level of protection for the Personal Data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) differs from that provided by the EU law. For this reason, we transfer your personal information outside the EEA only when necessary and with an adequate level of protection. This applies also to onward transfer of your personal data from us to our service providers. We secure the adequate level of protection primarily by cooperating with processors of the personal data in countries for which there has been a relevant European Commission decision finding an adequate level of protection for the personal data. Alternatively, we may use the standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission. If you want to learn more about these safeguards, obtain a copy of them or learn where they have been made available, contact us (please consult Section 1.1 above).
1.8.
Requirement to provide personal data
In some cases provision of your personal data is mandatory by law or necessary in order to carry out your request or to perform a contract we have with you. If you fail to provide us with your personal data in such situations, we may not be able to carry out your request, perform a contract with you (or enter into it) or comply with the law. In some cases this may mean that we will terminate the contract or stop our engagement with you. For example, if you do not provide your personal data necessary for the consumer complaint procedure, we may not be able to handle your complaint.

In other cases provision of your personal data is voluntary. If you fail to provide us with your personal data in such situations, we may not be able to carry out your request or achieve our goal. For example, if you do not share your contact details with us, we may not be able to contact you.
