Purpose of Personal Data Processing

The EXCHANGE’s legal basis for collecting and using Personal Data will depend on the Personal Data concerned and the specific context in which the EXCHANGE collects it.

​​

However, the EXCHANGE will normally collect Personal Data with your consent, to perform a contract (for example, when providing Services), or where the processing is in the EXCHANGE’s legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, Ratio EXCHANGE may also have a legal obligation to process Personal Data or may need to do so in order to exercise, establish, or defend legal claims.

 

If the EXCHANGE asks you to provide Personal Data to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract, the EXCHANGE will make this clear at the relevant time and advise whether the provision of Personal Data is mandatory or not (as well as the possible consequences, if any, if you do not provide that Personal Data).

Confidentiality and Security of Personal Data

Security is one of the EXCHANGE’s highest priorities. The EXCHANGE takes commercially reasonable and appropriate steps to protect Personal Data transmitted from you to the Sites and in connection with the Services and to protect such data from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. You should keep in mind that no internet transmission is ever 100% secure or error-free. In particular, email may not be secure and therefore special care should be taken when deciding what information is sent to the EXCHANGE via email. Where you use passwords, ID numbers, or other special access features, it is your responsibility to safeguard them.

​

The EXCHANGE makes commercially reasonable efforts to reduce the risk of data breaches and have dedicated controls and procedures in place for such situations, along with the procedures to make notifications to the relevant supervisory authorities and data subjects (where applicable).

Disclose/Onward Transfers of Personal Data

Any Personal Data provided to the EXCHANGE will be used for the EXCHANGE’s business purposes only and only disclosed on a need-to-know basis or as required by law.  The EXCHANGE does not provide any third party provider with name or email information. When the EXCHANGE provides Personal Data to third parties used to deliver or support specific Services to you, our agreements with these third parties do not permit them to use Personal Data outside the scope of fulfilling those Services nor allow them to further disclose your Personal Data. You should consult your Services Agreement for information regarding disclosures and transfers relevant to the Services.

​

The EXCHANGE’s partners are independent third parties that are otherwise not affiliated with the EXCHANGE. Any relationship you elect to enter into with a partner for additional products and services is directly between you and that third party.

User Rights to Personal Data

The EXCHANGE collects and processes Personal Data consistent with the disclosures in this Privacy Policy. Depending on applicable Privacy Laws, you may have the right to request that the EXCHANGE disclose certain information to you and/or about our collection and use of your Personal Data. You may have the right to object to or request access to your Personal Data, to restrict the processing of your Personal Data, or to have your Personal Data transferred, corrected, or deleted. You may also have the right of portability with respect to your Personal Data. However, you should note that these rights are not absolute and, depending on the type of information affected, the EXCHANGE may be permitted, or even required by law, to refuse your request. In all events, upon receipt of a valid, verifiable request, the EXCHANGE will explain its position in detail.

Marketing, Selling, or Disclosing Personal Data

The EXCHANGE does not market or sell Personal Data to third-parties.  Any provision or disclosure of Personal Data by the EXCHANGE will be governed by the EXCHANGE Services Agreement and applicable federal, state, local and international law, regulation, and policy.

Ratio EXCHANGE reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy from time to time, consistent with Privacy Laws, principles, and/or technical requirements. Unless such changes afford greater protections to your privacy interests, or you otherwise consent, such changes will apply only to Personal Data received after the effective date of such change.
