03. Personal Data

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified (as stated above). It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).

In the course of our relationship (including during account registration and opening stage), we may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you which we have grouped together as follows:

  • Identity Data: includes your first name, maiden name (where applicable), last name, address, company name, username or similar identifier, marital status, title, nationality, date of birth, gender, identity document type and identity document number, tax domicile, employment status, employer and occupation.

    1. your orders, such as the nature of the order (e.g. whether it is an order to buy or an order to sell), the order volume, price, value and, where applicable, the proceeds derived; and
    2. your trading and transactional history
  • Payment Data: includes details about the payments that you receive through us (e.g. withdrawals) or which we receive, or otherwise, charge you.
  • AML and Risk Data: for example, copies of I.D. card or passport, proof of residence, source of wealth, criminal records check, ‘suitability’ and ‘appropriateness’.

We also collect, use and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your usage data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific feature of the Site. However, if we combine or connect aggregated data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy notice.

We collect special categories of personal data about you, primarily as a result of the documentation and information that we collect and process in terms of AML and risk data. In essence, “special categories of personal data” or, as otherwise termed, “sensitive personal data”, refers to and includes information about a person’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or similar beliefs, trade union membership, physical or mental health or condition or sexual life, or about the commission of, or proceedings for, any offence committed or alleged to have been committed by that person, the disposal of such proceedings or the sentence of any court in such proceedings.

The collection and processing of this sensitive personal data about you is necessary for us to be able to, amongst other things to conduct our internal AML and KYC checks and due diligence on you.

Where we need to collect personal data about you:

  • by law; or
  • under the terms of, or in connection with, the contract that we have with you (as outlined above); or
  • as part of our legitimate business interests to verify the identity of our applicants and/or clients, mitigate against risks (such as potential or suspected fraud) and in particular, to assess your onboarding with us (as subject to our internal client acceptance criteria and policies).

and you either fail to provide that data when requested, or else provide insufficient or unsatisfactory data, we may not be able to perform or conclude the contract that we have with you or which we are otherwise trying to enter into with you (namely, regarding account openings with us).
