Personal data is shared with third parties only for specific purposes, such as to enhance our services, ensure security, provide customer support, and conduct analytics. We carefully select our partners and ensure they are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations to safeguard your data.

Each third-party processor we work with is required to enter into a contractual agreement with IXANEX that mandates strict confidentiality and data security measures. This ensures that your personal data remains secure and is only used in accordance with our instructions and applicable laws.

We may disclose your personal data when required to comply with legal obligations or in response to valid requests by public authorities, such as law enforcement agencies. Any disclosure will be conducted in compliance with applicable legal standards, and we will strive to limit the scope of data disclosed to only what is necessary.

Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, where data protection laws may differ. IXANEX operates in multiple jurisdictions, including the European Union, North America, Japan, Singapore, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, and data may be stored or processed in these regions as necessary to provide our services.

When we transfer your personal data to other countries, we implement safeguards to protect your data in compliance with applicable laws. These measures may include the use of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs), or reliance on adequacy decisions where applicable. These measures help protect your data and ensure compliance with relevant data protection regulations.

Where personal data is transferred outside of your home country, IXANEX ensures that such transfers comply with applicable laws and regulations, including GDPR for EU users, UK GDPR for users in the United Kingdom, and other relevant local laws. We strive to provide you with the same level of data protection regardless of the data’s geographic location.

IXANEX retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. The retention period may vary depending on the data category and applicable regulatory requirements.

The retention of your data is determined based on the type of data, the purpose of processing, and legal requirements. For instance, data needed for transaction records may be retained longer to comply with financial regulations, while other data may be retained for shorter periods if it is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected.

Once the retention period expires, IXANEX takes steps to securely delete or anonymize your personal data in accordance with applicable laws. Data that is no longer required will be safely removed from our systems, except in cases where data must be retained due to legal or regulatory obligations, or where data immutability on the blockchain makes deletion infeasible.

IXANEX employs a range of security measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your personal data. These measures include encryption, secure data storage, access control, and regular system monitoring to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of personal data.

To maintain a high level of data protection, we conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments. These audits help us identify and address potential security risks, ensuring that our data protection practices remain robust and effective against evolving threats.

In the event of a data breach or security incident, IXANEX has an incident response protocol to manage and mitigate the impact. We promptly assess the situation, contain the breach, and implement measures to prevent further risks. When required by law, we will notify affected users and relevant regulatory authorities in a timely manner.
