Your personal data may be stored and processed by the Foundation for the following purposes:
Assessing and processing your access to and use of the Website and the Front-End, including performing know-your-client procedures, enabling access to or continued use of the Front-End, and overseeing these processes;

Compliance with legal and regulatory obligations and industry standards, including know-your-client procedures, the automatic exchange of tax information and legal judgments.
The Foundation is entitled to process your personal data in these ways for the following reasons:
Processing may be necessary to discharge a relevant legal or regulatory obligation;
The processing will, in all cases, be necessary for the legitimate business interests of the Foundation, such as:

In respect of any processing of sensitive personal data falling within special categories, such as any personal data relating to the political opinions of a politically exposed person, the processing will be subject to additional safeguards.
Personal data that the Foundation might use
The Foundation might process the following personal data about you:
Information provided to the Foundation by you which might include your name and address (including proofs of name and address), contact details, digital assets wallet address, date of birth, gender, nationality, photograph, signature, occupational history, and job title. Such information might be provided in an application form or in other documents (as part of an application process or at other times), face-to-face, by telephone, by email or otherwise;
Information that the Foundation collects or generates which might include information relating to your use of the Website and the Front-End, your IP address, emails (and related data), call recordings and website usage data and messages submitted through the Administrator’s website; and

Disclosure of your personal data to third parties
The Foundation may from time to time, in accordance with the purposes described above, disclose your personal data to other parties, including professional advisers such as law firms and accountancy firms, other service providers of the Foundation, technology service providers, counterparties and courts and regulatory, tax and governmental authorities. Some of these persons will process your personal data in accordance with the Foundation’s instructions and others will themselves be responsible for their use of your personal data. These persons may be permitted to further disclose the personal data to other parties
Transfers of your personal data outside the BVI
Your personal data may be transferred to and stored by persons outside the BVI, and in particular may be transferred to and stored by affiliates or service providers of the Foundation outside the BVI.
Where personal data is transferred outside the BVI, the Foundation will ensure that the transfer is subject to appropriate safeguards or is otherwise permitted under applicable law. For example, in the context of personal data transferred outside the BVI, the country to which the personal data is transferred may be a European Economic Area member, a country approved by the European Commission or the recipient may have agreed to model contractual clauses approved by the European Commission that oblige them to protect the personal data.
You can obtain more details of the protection given to your personal data when it is transferred outside the BVI or the European Economic Area, including a copy of any standard data protection clauses entered into with recipients of your personal data, by contacting the Foundation using the details set out under “Contacting the Foundation” below.

Accordingly, if certain personal data is not provided when requested, or you block access to such personal data being automatically collected, your ability to access and use the Website and the Front-End may be prevented or suspended.
Retention of personal data
How long the Foundation holds your personal data for will vary. The retention period will be determined by various criteria, including the purposes for which the Foundation is using it (as it will need to be kept for as long as is necessary for any of those purposes) and legal obligations (as laws or regulations may set a minimum period for which the Foundation has to keep your personal data).
