WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Information that you give us
We receive and store all and any information that you voluntarily enter on our website and or provide through our mobile applications. For example, we collect information from you when you create an account, make a payment or use any of our services. The information we collect from you may include the following:

• Demographic and personally identifiable information such as your name, your telephone number, your email address, your location, your age and date of birth, race, ethnicity, gender, marital status, income level, education and occupation.
• Your contact list information: When you use our mobile application, we may request access to your contact list stored on your device. This may include names, phone numbers, email addresses, and other relevant contact details, with app user permission to allow easy access to contacts through the app for transaction purposes and marketing purposes.
• Your photo image information: With your permission and for your access to our services, our mobile application requires that you upload a self portrait/image/photo when creating or updating an account for your profile to verify your identity as per the requirements of Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing legislation. We use a third party to process the image information we receive, and whose privacy policy is available at https://smileidentity.com/privacy-policy
• Government issued information: We may also collect information relating to your national identification card number or passport number.

Please be advised that all data you disclose in this area is public and your data will be accessible to anyone who accesses the Application. Additionally, your information will be shared internally and may also be shared externally with our third party compliance processors and product offering partners that undertake automated review of your information to determine and verify whether as a user, you have provided appropriate authentication to engage with the application. The verification may include:

• matching your information against relevant government maintained databases on sanction lists, lists of politically exposed persons and other databases that provide information on potentially illegal activity,
• for comparison by facial recognition of your self image against government provided identification documents,
• for confirming your identity against other relevant databases such as those maintained by companies providing credit reports, and
• for the purpose of monitoring transactions for fraudulent and other illegal activities.

We will always request access or permission to certain features from your mobile or computer devices, including your device’s camera for the purpose of “selfies” used for identification verification, your contacts for the purpose of engaging contacts to join you on the service, your storage for storing your profile picture, and other features. If you wish to change our access or permissions, you may do so in your device’s settings.
