Fortuna Digital Custody Limited respects your privacy and we are committed to keeping your personal information and other data confidential and secure.

‍

1. When does this Website Privacy Statement apply?

‍

This Website Privacy Statement explains the approach taken by Fortuna Digital Custody Limited (“Fortuna”, “we” or “us” or “our”) toward the personal information and data that we collect about you (“Your Information”) when you visit this Website, electronically respond to our online advertisements or when you send us communications via any computer, mobile or other similar electronic devices (“Device”). It does not apply to information we collect in other ways e.g. when you are dealing with our team in person or over the telephone. In these cases, there may be other privacy statements and terms and conditions that are applicable.

‍

This Website Privacy Statement is limited to information and data collected on this Website, our online advertisements and electronic communications. Our Website Privacy Statement does not apply when you leave our Website, including third-party websites where our online advertisements are displayed or links to third-party websites which we do not operate or control. Please read the privacy statements and terms and conditions of these third-party websites and decide whether they satisfactorily protect your rights.

‍

2. You consent to our use of Your Information and Cookies

‍

The Website is designed to use Cookies to collect information about how people use the Website and in some parts of our Website, we specifically ask for Your Information (see Online Forms and Job Applicants). Otherwise, you can use the Website without providing Your Information.

‍

(a) Online Forms

There are sections of the Website where we ask for personal information, for example, when you complete online forms to submit an enquiry or apply for a particular product or service. Please ensure you also read any applicable Terms and Conditions for these products and services.

‍

(b) Job Applicants

Personal information provided on our Website in connection with an application for employment will be used to determine your suitability for a position with Fortuna and, if applicable, your terms of employment or engagement. Your Information may also be used to monitor our recruitment initiatives and equal opportunities policies. Applicant details may be disclosed to third parties to verify or obtain additional information including education institutions, current/previous employers and credit reference agencies. Credit reference agencies record these searches and you can contact us to find out which agencies we used. Unsuccessful applications may be retained to match your skills to future job opportunities. These are usually retained for up to 12 months but please let us know if you do not wish us to retain Your Information for this purpose.

‍

(c) Electronic Communications

If you contact us via email or through the Fortuna Fortress, we may keep a record of that correspondence.

‍

3. How we use Your Information

‍

We will always treat Your Information as confidential. We will use good practices to keep it secure and will otherwise abide by the relevant data protection and privacy laws.

‍

(a) Using Your Information – Purposes

If you provide Your Information on the Website in relation to any products and services from Fortuna, or send us an electronic communication, we will use Your Information for the purposes (“Purposes”) of providing and operating the product or service you request or responding to your electronic communication and for other related purposes that may include:

• updating and enhancing our records about you and understanding your needs;
• crime or fraud detection, prevention and prosecution;
• complying with laws or regulations;
• planning, conducting and monitoring Fortuna’s business including research and statistical analysis with the aim of improving our Website, products and/or services; and
• handling queries and complaints.

Please ensure you also read the Terms and Conditions applicable to these products and services.

‍

(b) Marketing

We generally do not use Your Information collected on this Website for marketing purposes.  Your Information may be used to inform you about other related products and services that may be of interest. 

‍

(c) Disclosing Your Information

When using Your Information for the Purposes we may need to disclose it to our agents, advisors and third party service providers (“Other Parties”). When this happens we will require the Other Parties to handle Your Information using the same level of care that we apply. We will also require them to only use Your Information according to our instructions and directions. If the Other Parties are overseas Your Information may be sent to another country including countries with weaker privacy and data protection laws than in your country of residence. We will not otherwise disclose Your Information to third parties unless we have your permission or we are under a legal or similar obligation.

This means, by way of example, that Your Information may be disclosed to:

• regulators, supervisors, governments or quasi-governmental authorities in countries where we, our agents, advisors or third party service providers have a presence;
• agents, advisors or third party service providers under a duty of confidentiality to Fortuna;
• anti-money laundering and fraud prevention agencies (where necessary for the Purposes).

‍

(d) Retaining Your Information

We will retain Your Information for as long as the Purpose for which we collected it continues. It is then destroyed unless further retention is required to satisfy a legal, regulatory or accounting requirement or to protect our interests.

‍

4. Privacy, security and communications using the Internet

‍

(a) The Internet is not a secure form of communication and sending and receiving information over the Internet carries with it risks including the risk of access and interference by unauthorised third parties. It is your responsibility to maintain the secrecy of any user ID and login password you hold.

‍

(b) Information passing over the Internet may be transmitted internationally (even when sender and recipient are located in the same country) via countries with weaker privacy and data protection laws than in your country of residence. As a result, we do not accept responsibility or liability for the confidentiality, security or integrity of Your Information in connection with its transmission over the Internet.

‍

(c) In order to maintain the security of our systems, protect our staff, record transactions, and, in certain circumstances, to prevent and detect crime or unauthorised activities, we reserve the right to monitor all Internet communications including web and email traffic into and out of our domains.
