1.             SCOPE OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY

    This Privacy Policy applies to personal information processed by us, including on our website, mobile applications, and other online or offline offerings. To make this Privacy Policy easier to read, our website, mobile application, and  other  offerings are  collectively called the “Services.” Our  Services  relate  to business-to-business digital asset and fiat currency management and related services and are not intended or applicable for individual’s personal use and are for enterprise use only.

An Important Note regarding Blockchain Technologies: If you use our Services relating to the creation, management,  participation,  or operation  of  a transaction  on  a  blockchain,  such  as for  use  with cryptocurrencies, smart contracts will be employed that necessarily collect information, such as your digital wallet address (which some legal jurisdictions may consider personal information) or other information that could relate to an individual person, and that information will be stored on a public blockchain ledger that we do not control. A smart contract is computer code that automatically processes events when certain conditions are met; for example, when cryptocurrency is to be added to a digital wallet, a smart contract will automatically execute the proposed action when certain conditions are met (for example, if two people agree  to  exchange an amount of cryptocurrency from one wallet to  another). In these situations, your personal information may be stored on that blockchain through the execution of a smart contract and may not be able to be modified or deleted due to the immutable nature of the blockchain. 

Changes to our Privacy Policy. We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time in our sole discretion. If there are any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you as required by applicable law. You understand and agree that you will  be deemed to have accepted the updated  Privacy  Policy if you continue to use our Services after the new Privacy Policy takes effect.

2.    PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
