4. Data Sharing and Third-Party Disclosure

We maintain strict controls over data sharing and only disclose personal information to third parties when necessary for legitimate business purposes or regulatory compliance. All third-party relationships are governed by comprehensive data processing agreements that ensure appropriate levels of data protection.

Authorised recipients of your personal information include payment processors for financial transactions, identity verification services for compliance purposes, regulatory authorities when required by law, and technical service providers supporting our platform infrastructure. We do not sell, rent, or otherwise commercialise your personal data to unauthorised third parties for marketing purposes.

In cases where data is transferred internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other mechanisms approved under UK data protection law. All international transfers are conducted with full consideration of the risks and appropriate mitigation measures.

5. Data Retention Policies

Our data retention practices are designed to balance operational requirements, regulatory obligations, and privacy rights. We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal requirements.

Account information and transaction records are typically retained for seven years following account closure or the last transaction, in accordance with anti-money laundering regulations and tax obligations. Marketing data is retained based on your consent status and communication preferences, with regular reviews to ensure continued relevance and lawfulness.

Upon expiry of retention periods, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our data disposal procedures. Emergency situations or ongoing legal proceedings may necessitate extended retention periods, which are reviewed regularly to ensure proportionality and necessity.
