Data Deletion Requests

Registered members who wish to have their personal data deleted from our system may submit a Data Subject Request (DSR) by contacting us at [email protected]. Upon receiving a valid deletion request, we will promptly respond within the legal timelines specified by GDPR.

Verification of Identity

To ensure the security of our members’ personal data, we will verify the identity of the data subject before proceeding with the data deletion process. This step is essential to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information.

  • Personal information provided during the registration process, such as name, address, phone number, and date of birth.
  • Transaction history related to the member’s interactions on our website.
  • Any other data collected based on the member’s consent and interactions with our platform.

We will ensure that the personal data of the registered member is securely and permanently deleted from our databases and backup systems. This process will be completed as soon as possible and within the timeframes required by GDPR.

Third-Party Data Sharing

If we have shared the registered member’s personal data with any third parties based on consent or for service provision, we will notify these parties of the data deletion request and request that they promptly delete the relevant data from their systems.

Retention Period Compliance

We will regularly review and update our data retention policies to ensure that personal data is not retained for longer than necessary for the purposes it was collected.

Data Breach Notification

In the unlikely event of a data breach that compromises our registered members’ personal data, we will promptly assess the potential impact on the affected individuals and, if required, notify the relevant authorities and the affected members in accordance with GDPR regulations.
