This Policy aligns with Article 24 GDPR (EU) 2016/679, considering the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing, as well as the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. UNC Markets has implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure adherence to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This policy serves as the cornerstone of UNC Markets’ compliance with GDPR and is reviewed and updated accordingly.
This Policy provides data subjects with information on how UNC Markets collects personal data, what we do with it, and with whom it may be shared. This privacy notice has been drafted in compliance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the “GDPR”), and based on the Information Commissioner’s Code of Practice on “Privacy Notices, Transparency, and Control” and the Article 29 European Commission Guidelines on transparency under the GDPR.
We ask that you read this privacy notice carefully as your privacy on the internet is of crucial importance to us. It contains important information on who we are, how and why we collect, store, use, and share personal information, your rights in relation to your personal information, and how to contact us and supervisory authorities in the event you have a complaint.
UNC Markets Ltd (“us,” “our,” or “we”) collects, uses, and is responsible for certain personal information about you. When we do so, we are regulated under the General Data Protection Regulation, which applies across the European Union, and we are responsible as the “controller” of that personal information for the purposes of those laws.
Regardless of whether you reside inside or outside the “Designated Countries,” UNC Markets will be the controller of your personal data provided to, or collected by or for, or processed in connection with our services and regulated activities.
The provision of “Your Data” is required from you to enable us to provide our services. We will inform you at the point of collecting information from you whether you are required to provide the information to us.
In the course of your registration as a client, signing up for a demo or live account with UNC Markets, or filling in any form on our website, subscribing to our services, news or offers, marketing communications, or posting material, the following information about you (“Your Data”) will be collected and stored for administrative, service-related, and/or legal purposes.
We will limit the collection of personal information to what is necessary to administer our business and carry out our regulated activities to provide you with superior service.
However, the meaning of data “provided to” UNC Markets is not limited to this. It is also personal data resulting from observation of your activities (i.e., when using a device or service).
This may include:
Your email address may be used by UNC Markets in relation to its products and services (including any marketing campaigns related to these products or services). If you do not wish to receive such marketing material and marketing communications, you can opt-out at any time by clicking on “unsubscribe” or by sending an email stating so to support@3.120.189.127.
We use information held about you in the following ways:
We may also use your data or permit selected third parties and our processors to use your data to provide you with information about goods and services which may be of interest to you, and we or they may contact you about these by email.
We will not rent or sell your information to third parties outside of UNC Markets (or the group of companies of which UNC Markets is part of) without your consent. We also impose strict restrictions on how our processors can use and disclose the data we provide. Here are the types of third parties we share information with:
Service providers and other partners: We transfer information to service providers (processors) and other partners who support our business globally, such as providing technical infrastructure services, trading platforms, analyzing how our services are used (such as measuring the effectiveness of ads and services), providing client service and support, client on-boarding, client identity verification (including PEPs and sanctions), conducting marketing communications and design, services related to our website management, services related to software, and business development services.
We need to transfer personal data to recipients outside the European Union; these activities can include dealings with foreign public entities (only when necessary and under request), the outsourcing of services to external providers located outside the EU, and/or processing the data outside the EU (e.g., cloud computing, client identity verification, and individuals from outside the EEA accessing our web services).
Measurement and Analytics Services: Partners who use our analytics services like Google Analytics (Non-Personally Identifiable Information Only). We do not share information that personally identifies you (personally identifiable information is information like your name or email address that can by itself be used to contact you or identify who you are) with advertising, measurement, or analytics partners.
UNC Markets conducts extensive due diligence before choosing processors to ensure they provide sufficient safeguards, particularly in terms of expert knowledge, data governance, data security, cyber resilience, reliability, and resources to implement technical and organizational measures in a way that processing will meet the requirements of General Data Protection Regulation and ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.
Adherence to the processor to an SLA Contract is used as an element to demonstrate compliance with the obligations of the controller.
The carrying-out of processing by our processor is governed by a contract or other legal act under Union or Member State law, binding the processor to the controller.
This data sharing with our processor enables us to proceed with our regulated activities and duties for KYC to meet our regulatory obligations regarding assessing the appropriateness of our products and services, providing support to clients, etc. Some of those third-party recipients (processors) may be based outside the European Economic Area; if the third-party recipient is located outside the EU/EEA in a country not ensuring an adequate level of data protection, the transfer will only be completed if a written agreement has been entered into between UNC Markets and the third party. The written agreement shall be based on the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission (and any updated versions). For further information including how we safeguard your personal data when these cases occur, see the paragraph ‘Transfer of your information out of the EEA.
We will share personal information with law enforcement or other authorities if required by applicable law.
Cookie Data We use cookies and similar technologies to provide and support our services. When you use our website, we will use cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website.
For more information about cookies and how we use them, please read our Cookies Policy.
Information collected within the European Economic Area (“EEA”) will be transferred to countries outside the EEA for the purposes described in this policy, relying on the lawful basis of contractual necessity and compliance with our legal obligations.
We and our processors, when data is transferred outside the EEA, utilize standard contract clauses approved by the European Commission and adopt other means under European Union law and may obtain your consent to legitimize data transfers from the EEA to other countries.
We access, preserve and share your information with regulators, law enforcement or others by request:
Information we receive about you (including financial transaction as data related to deposits and withdrawals) can be accessed and preserved for an extended period when it is the subject of a legal request or obligation, governmental investigation, or investigations of possible violations of our terms or policies, or otherwise to prevent harm. We also retain information from accounts disabled for terms violations for at least a year to prevent repeat abuse or other term violations.
Under the General Data Protection Regulation you have a number of important rights if you are resident within the European Union. In summary, those include rights to:
If you would like to exercise any of those rights, please:
If you would like to unsubscribe from any emailing or any marketing communications you can also click on the ‘unsubscribe’ button at the bottom of the email or by sending an email at support@3.120.189.127 stating so.
Data retention:
You can close your account any time, but for audit trail purposes, UNC Markets shall hold personal data for a period of at least five years after closing the account in order for us to comply with our record keeping obligations under the Money Laundering Regulations 2020.
At the end of that period, we will delete all personal data relating to you, unless a legal requirement requires them to keep the data for a prolonged period of time, or Data Subject has expressly consented to their data being held for an extended period of time.
What happens in the event of a change of control?
If we sell or otherwise transfer part or the whole of UNC Markets or our assets to another organization (e.g., in the course of a transaction like a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation), your information such as name and email address and any other information collected through the Service may be among the items sold or transferred. You will continue to own your User Content. The buyer or transferee will have to honour the commitments we have made in this Privacy Policy.
How to complain?
We hope that our Data Protection Officer, client support or compliance team can resolve any query or concern you raise about our use of your information.
The General Data Protection Regulation also gives you right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
How to contact us?
If you wish to contact us with any queries, concerns or complaints, you can email us at support@3.120.189.127.
