Overchain takes security seriously and cares about the integrity of your personal data.

All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Any payment transactions carried out by us, or our chosen third-party provider of payment processing services will be encrypted using appropriate encryption technology. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our Platform, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way.

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized 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 contractual need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

In the event that any information under our control is compromised as a result of a breach of security, we will take reasonable steps to investigate the situation and where appropriate, notify those individuals whose information may have been compromised and take other steps, in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations.

If you have any urgent security concerns, please email privacy@overchain.io.

10. DATA RETENTION

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see (your legal rights) below for further information. However, please note that there may also be residual personal data that will remain within our databases and other records, which cannot be removed. For example, it is not technically feasible to remove deleted data from backups. We store anonymised records of all deletion activity in order to scrub any deleted data before using this residual/backup data.

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

In the event that you do not use our App for a period of 12 months then we will treat the account as expired and your personal data may be deleted, except personal data required to maintain by applicable laws.

11. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to yourpersonal data.

  1. Request information about whether we hold personal data about you, and, if so, what that personal data is and why we are holding/using it.
  2. Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request“). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. As part of our response to any data subject access request, we are also required to provide you with certain information about our processing of personal data.
  3. Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate personal data we hold about you corrected.
  4. Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your personal data unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
  5. Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and you want to object to processing of personal data on this legal basis. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your personal data which override your rights and freedoms.
  6. Object to automated decision-making including profiling, that is not to be the subject of any automated decision-making by us using your personal data or profiling of you.
  7. Request the restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal data, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
  8. Request transfer of your personal data in an electronic and structured form to you or to another party (commonly known as a right to “data portability”). This enables you to take your personal data from us in an electronically useable format and to be able to transfer your data to another party in an electronically useable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
  9. Withdrawal of consent: Where we rely on consent as our legal basis for processing you have the right to withdraw consent to processing at any time by contacting us. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

11.1 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. In any case, we shall provide you with detailed reasoning of such decision.

11.2 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.

If a representative wishes to exercise data subject rights on behalf of a data subject, they must provide a valid authorization document (e.g. Power of Attorney) as proof of authorization.

11.3 Time limit to respond

We try to respond to all legitimate requests without undue delay, but no later than within one month.

Our response period can be extended by up to two additional months, considering the complexity and number of requests. You will be informed of the extension within one month of making the request, along with the reasons for the delay.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at, info@overchain.io.

11.4 Data protection of using digital assets and blockchains

Your use of digital assets may be recorded on a public blockchain. Public blockchains are distributed ledgers, intended to immutably record transactions across wide networks of computer systems. Many blockchains are open to forensic analysis which can lead to re-identification of transacting individuals and the revelation of Personal Data, especially when blockchain data is combined with other data.

As blockchains are decentralized or third-party networks which are not controlled or operated by the Company, we are not able to erase, modify, or alter Personal Data on such networks.

11.5 How to Contact Us

If you have questions or concerns regarding this Policy or if you have a complaint, please contact us by our appointed Data Protection Officer (DPO) at privacy@overchain.io. If we are unable to satisfactorily address your concerns, you have the right to communicate with a relevant supervisory authority. We can direct you to the relevant supervisory authority in your jurisdiction.

11.6 Updates to the Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to alter, amend or modify this Policy from time to time, in our sole discretion. We will provide you with notice of such changes by sending you an email, providing notice on the homepage of the Platform and/or by posting the amended Policy on the Platform and updating the “Last Updated” date at the bottom of the Policy. The amended Policy will be deemed effective immediately upon posting on the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform and/or our Services constitutes your agreement to be bound by any such changes to this Policy.
