This Policy is intended for visitors of BeInCrypto. BeInCrypto is a news portal that provides Visitors with transparent information about the cryptocurrency market and blockchain industry. The Company has established this Privacy Policy in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable regulations, including the ePrivacy Directive. If the processing of personal data changes significantly, or if the Company introduces new processing purposes requiring new consent, Visitors will be notified via email or a notice on the platform before the changes take effect.
The Company collects only the information necessary for the provision and improvement of services.
Visitors can request details on the personal data collected by contacting BeInCrypto support at [email protected].
The legal bases for processing personal data include:
• Performance of a contract (e.g., providing a requested service).
• Explicit consent (e.g., for marketing purposes).
• Legitimate interest (e.g., cybersecurity and fraud prevention).
• Compliance with legal obligations (e.g., retaining data for tax regulations or government laws).
Transparency on legitimate interest: The Company has conducted an internal assessment to ensure that the processing of personal data under legitimate interest does not override Visitors' rights and freedoms. Visitors have the right to object to this processing at any time by contacting [email protected].
Visitors can subscribe to the newsletter by providing their email addresses.
Consent for receiving the newsletter is obtained through a clear and verifiable opt-in mechanism. Visitors can withdraw consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in each email or by contacting BeInCrypto support.
The Company may process personal data for legitimate interests, including:
• Ensuring cybersecurity and preventing unauthorized access.
• Complying with regulatory obligations and requests from authorities.
• Defending the Company in legal proceedings.
If processing is based on legitimate interest, the Visitor has the right to object at any time by sending a request to [email protected].
BeInCrypto uses personal data to provide promotional content to Visitors based on their preferences and activities. All Visitors will receive marketing communications only after providing explicit consent (opt-in). Visitors can modify their preferences or withdraw consent at any time by:
• Clicking the "Unsubscribe" link in marketing emails.
• Sending a request to [email protected].
BeInCrypto and its appointed agents responsible for data collection, storage, and processing may access Visitors' personal data. The Company uses service providers (e.g., cloud services, data analytics, email marketing) to process personal data. An up-to-date list of external data processors can be requested at [email protected].
The Company may use external processors for data processing based on service agreements, following the Company's instructions to ensure the protection of Visitor-related data. An updated list of data processors can be requested at [email protected].
The retention period varies based on the purpose of data collection:
• Marketing data: Retained until the Visitor withdraws consent.
• Contractual data: Retained for up to five years after service termination unless legal obligations require a longer retention period.
• Legal compliance data: Retained as required by law.
• General inquiries and communication data: Retained for up to one year.
When data is no longer needed, it will be securely deleted.
Visitors have the right to request the deletion of their personal data in the following cases:
• The data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
• The Visitor withdraws consent, and no other legal basis exists for processing.
• The data was processed unlawfully.
• The Visitor objects to processing for marketing purposes.
To exercise this right, the Visitor can contact BeInCrypto at [email protected].
Visitors have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if they believe that their personal data is not being processed in compliance with the GDPR. Visitors may contact their local data protection authority for further assistance.
Personal data may be processed outside the EU/EEA. If the transfer occurs to a country not deemed adequate by the European Commission, the Company ensures appropriate safeguards, including:
• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) approved by the European Commission.
• Binding Corporate Rules (BCR) for internal group data transfers.
• Other security measures, such as data pseudonymization or encryption.
Upon request, the Visitor can receive further details about data transfers and the security measures in place.
The Company reserves the right to modify this Policy. If substantial changes are made that affect Visitors' rights, the Company will notify users via email or a notice on the platform before the changes take effect.
