  • using our Website or Services;
  • corresponding with us by email, phone, or other communication channels;
  • submitting forms;
  • participating in surveys or promotions;

As you interact with our Website, we may automatically collect Technical and Usage Data using:

Third parties and public sources

We may receive Personal Data from:

  • fraud prevention databases;
  • sanctions and politically exposed persons (PEP) screening providers;
  • payment processors;
  • financial institutions;
  • publicly available registers;
  • social media platforms;

As part of our legal and regulatory obligations, we may verify your identity and screen your Personal Data against third-party databases and public or private sources. This may include identity verification providers, sanctions and PEP lists, fraud prevention databases, adverse media sources, law enforcement and regulatory lists, and other publicly available registers or compliance data sources.

If we are unable to complete these checks to our satisfaction, we may be unable to open or maintain an account for you, process a transaction, or provide some or all of the Services. In some cases, we may also be required by law to retain certain information and/or make disclosures to competent authorities, even where an account is not opened or a transaction is not completed.

Use of Personal Data

We will only use your Personal Data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your Personal Data in the following circumstances:

  • where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you (in this case, our Terms of Use and where services are delivered through regulated third-party partners, separate terms and conditions may apply);
  • where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests;
  • where we need to comply with a legal obligation;
  • where you have provided us with your consent.

Performance of Contract means processing your data where it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract. In order to access our Website and Services you will first have to enter into a contract with us governing our relationship.

Legitimate Interest means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best Services and the best and most secure experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your Personal Data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your Personal Data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us. Certain processing activities may also be carried out on the basis of recognised legitimate interests under applicable data protection legislation. These may include processing undertaken for the purposes of preventing or detecting fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, or sanctions breaches, safeguarding individuals from harm, and improving, maintaining, and securing our Services.

Comply with a legal obligation means processing your Personal Data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation that we are subject to.

Generally, we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your Personal Data, with the exception of our marketing, advertising, and non-essential cookie and tracking activities. Where we use cookies and similar technologies that are not strictly necessary for the operation of our Website (for example, for analytics or advertising), we will seek your consent through our Cookie Preference Center before setting such technologies on your device. Where consent is relied upon, we ensure it is freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous, and you may withdraw your consent at any time through your account settings, the Cookie Preference Center, or by contacting us. We will ensure to provide you with clear and concise information regarding what you consent to and make it easy for you to withdraw consent at any time.

Disclosures of Your Personal Data

We may share your Personal Data with certain parties as set out below:

  • Internal Third Parties — affiliated companies of the Company;
  • External Third Parties — third-party service providers, including financial institutions, KYC and anti-fraud service providers, cloud storage providers, customer support software providers, analytics providers, project management providers, communication providers, auditors, regulators, and law enforcement;
  • Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your Personal Data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your Personal Data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your Personal Data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your Personal Data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

In some cases, these providers process Personal Data as our processors, acting on our written instructions. In other cases, they may process Personal Data as independent controllers where they determine their own purposes and means of processing, including to comply with their own legal, regulatory, risk management, or anti-money laundering obligations.

Where a third-party provider acts as an independent controller, its processing of Personal Data will be governed by its own privacy notice, and individuals should review that notice where relevant.

Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

We use third-party and internal compliance tools to support our KYC, AML/CFT, sanctions screening, fraud prevention, transaction monitoring, and risk assessment processes. These tools may use automated checks, screening databases, rules-based alerts, profiling, and risk-scoring mechanisms to assess information such as identity information, transaction history and patterns, device and technical data, sanctions and politically exposed person screening results, geolocation data, and device-risk indicators.

These tools may generate alerts, risk indicators, match results, or recommended actions for our review. We use these outputs to help identify potential compliance, fraud, security, or financial-crime risks.

We do not make decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects for you based solely on automated processing. Decisions to refuse, restrict, suspend, or terminate access to the Services, or to block or decline a transaction on risk or compliance grounds, involve human review and judgement.

International Transfers

Your Personal Data may be transferred to, stored, or processed in countries outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area (“EEA”), including where our service providers, infrastructure providers, affiliates, or business partners operate.

Where required under applicable data protection laws, we implement appropriate safeguards to ensure that your Personal Data remains protected when transferred internationally. Such safeguards may include:

  • adequacy decisions adopted by the European Commission or relevant UK authorities;
  • the European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”); and
  • the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (“IDTA”) or UK Addendum to the SCCs, where applicable.

We may use third-party cloud hosting, analytics, compliance, payment, communication, and infrastructure providers that process Personal Data in multiple jurisdictions.

Where required, we take reasonable steps to ensure that recipients of Personal Data are subject to confidentiality obligations and implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your Personal Data.

Further information about these safeguards, including a copy of the relevant contractual protections or a description of where they can be accessed, is available from us on request using the contact details set out below.

Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your Personal Data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your Personal Data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your Personal Data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected Personal Data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

Data Retention

We will not keep your Personal Data for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to meet our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting obligations. We may retain your Personal Data for a longer period where this is required in connection with a complaint or where we reasonably believe there is a prospect of a dispute or legal claim in relation to our relationship with you.

When determining how long to retain your Personal Data, we take into account factors such as the amount, nature and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it and whether those purposes can be achieved through other means, as well as applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other requirements.

By law, we are required to keep certain basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for a minimum of five (5) years after they cease being customers, for compliance and record-keeping purposes. We may be required to retain Personal Data for longer periods where this is necessary to comply with other applicable laws, regulatory obligations, statutory limitation periods, or accounting and tax rules.

In some circumstances, you may ask us to delete your Personal Data — see the “Your Legal Rights” section for further information about this. In other circumstances, we may anonymise your Personal Data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research, statistical or analytical purposes; in such cases, we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Where legally permitted, we may also retain Personal Data for longer periods where this is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, or to comply with ongoing regulatory or law-enforcement requirements.

Your Legal Rights

Your principal rights under the GDPR are:

  • Right to access: you can ask for confirmation as to whether or not we process your Personal Data and to access the Personal Data, together with certain additional information.
  • Right to rectification and erasure: you can ask for rectification of any inaccurate information about you, or to the erasure of such information without undue delay in certain circumstances (e.g., when it’s used for direct marketing, you withdraw consent, the Personal Data is no longer necessary, etc.).
  • Right to restrict processing: in some circumstances, you have the right to restrict the processing (e.g., when you contest the accuracy of the Personal Data; processing is unlawful but you oppose erasure, etc.).
  • Right to object to processing: on grounds relating to your particular situation unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
  • Right to data portability: to the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your data is (a) consent or (b) that the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, and such processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your data from us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
  • Right to complain to a supervisory authority: you have a legal right to complain if you consider that our processing of your Personal Data infringes data protection laws.
  • Right to withdraw consent: you have the right to withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.

Statutory exemptions and restrictions

Please note that data protection rights are not absolute and may be subject to statutory exemptions and restrictions. In particular, our obligations relating to anti-money laundering, counter-terrorist financing, sanctions compliance, fraud prevention, safeguarding, legal privilege, and regulatory reporting may limit the information we can provide or the extent to which we can comply with certain requests. Where we rely on such an exemption, we will explain this where we are legally permitted to do so.

Regulatory disclosures

We may disclose Personal Data to regulators, financial intelligence units, law enforcement authorities, tax authorities, courts, governmental bodies, and other competent authorities where required by applicable law, regulation, legal process, or regulatory obligations.

No fee usually required

You will not have to pay a fee to access your Personal Data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

What we may need from you

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your Personal Data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that Personal Data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

Time limit to respond

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Complaints

If you have a complaint about how we process your Personal Data or how we have handled a privacy-related request, please contact us using the details set out in the “Contact Us” section and we will try to resolve your concern.

If you feel that we have not addressed your complaint in a satisfactory manner, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”) in the United Kingdom or with your local data protection supervisory authority, as applicable. Details of how to contact the ICO are available at ico.org.uk/global/contact-us, and further information about your data protection rights can be found at ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/.

Service and Marketing Communications

We may send you communications relating to your use of the Services, including service-related announcements, security alerts, transactional notifications, compliance-related communications, technical notices, updates to our Terms of Use or Privacy Policy, and other administrative messages where necessary to perform our contract with you or where we have a legitimate interest in providing such communications.

Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent before sending you marketing or promotional communications regarding products, services, features, offers, events, or updates that may be of interest to you.

You may opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by:

  • following the unsubscribe instructions included in such communications;
  • adjusting your communication preferences through your account settings, where available; or
  • contacting us at info@qore.finance.

Please note that opting out of marketing communications will not affect service-related, transactional, security, compliance, or legally required communications.
