Resident’s Rights – Jurisdictions in the United States, Where Applicable
In some states in the United States, we do not sell, trade, or exchange the Registered Users’ personal information with anyone for money.
Biometric Information
We employ third-party service providers to help verify your identity and age and to check background records and the authenticity of identification documents you provide using facial recognition technology. The facial recognition technology creates a mathematical representation of your face and detects facial features from the live scan of your face, your selfie, and the government-issued ID you submit or previously submitted to us. This mathematical representation, which is considered biometric information/identifier/data under the laws of certain states and countries, is not shared by our service providers with us, and is deleted by our service providers 7 days after its creation. Information derived from this mathematical representation, which may be considered biometric information/identifier/data under the laws of certain states and countries, is shared by our service providers with us as further described below.
Your biometric information will be used to:
- verify you are a real, live person and to prevent the use of methods which would allow a user to identify as someone else;
- to match your selfie with your government-issued ID you submit or previously submitted to us to make sure that nobody is impersonating you;
- to help confirm your age; and
- to check your criminal/background history.
We may disclose your biometric information, face scan, selfie, and government-issued ID (including any government-issued ID or selfie you previously submitted to us) with members of our corporate group, and with third-party service providers. These entities may be located in jurisdictions that do not offer the same level of data protection as your jurisdiction. We (and/or any of these entities) may perform facial recognition and collect your biometric information from your face scan, selfie and any government-issued ID, and use your biometric information for the above purposes.
You will be asked to provide your consent to biometric processing. You may withdraw your consent to this processing at any time by using the links below. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any collection, use, processing, or disclosure that occurred prior to the withdrawal.
We reserve the right to refuse online service through our platform for Legal Service Process, namely in cases where the above requirements are not met and require formal legal service at the above address. In such event, you will be notified. We may raise or waive any legal objection or right available, in our sole discretion.
Transfers of Your Personal Information to Other Countries
Where the laws of your country allow you to do so, by using the Website you consent to the transfer of information that we collect about you, including Personal Information, to other countries in which we, members of our corporate group (including affiliates and related entities) or our service providers are located. When we transfer Personal Information to countries outside of the EEA or other regions with comprehensive data protection laws, we will ensure that such information is transferred in accordance with the applicable laws. Where relevant, our transfers outside the EEA are made pursuant to standard contractual clauses approved for use by the European Union.
Retention of Personal Information
We will only retain your Personal Information for as long as your account is active, or for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Data, we consider a number of factors, including which Personal Data we are processing, the risk of harm from any unauthorised disclosure, why we are processing your Personal Data and whether we can achieve this outcome by another means without having to process it.
Where we no longer need to process your Personal Information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, we will delete your Personal Information from our systems.
Where permissible, we will also delete your Personal Information upon your request as explained above in the section “Your Rights Related to Your Personal Information”.
