All transfers to external wallets are subject to the privacy policy and/or terms of service of the relevant third-party service, so please be sure to review the privacy policies and practices of the relevant third parties before making such a transfer. As stated in our Terms and Conditions, CyLimit will not be held responsible for any third party content or service and disclaims any liability for any services provided to a user by a third party service provider.

The section below is intended to inform you of the rights you have in relation to the processing of your Personal Data. Please note that all requests made under this section will be processed in accordance with applicable European laws (including the GDPR), regardless of your location or country of residence.

Requests

To exercise your rights or ask us a question about CyLimit’s data privacy practices, you may make a request by email to [email protected]

CyLimit will endeavor to respond to your request or inquiry as soon as possible, and no later than one (1) month from receipt of the request. For complex requests, we reserve the right to extend this period to three (3) months.

Individuals located in France may also submit a complaint to the Commission Nationale Informatique et Libertés (“CNIL”). Individuals located in another Member State of the European Union may submit a request to the competent data protection authority in their country of residence.

Deletion of User Account

If you wish to request deletion of your Personal Data, you may use the method described above or simply request deletion of your User account via your User account settings as described in the CyLimit Terms and Conditions.

Deleting your account will result in the irreversible deletion of the Personal Data associated with the account. In order to ensure that your rights are respected without altering the history and traceability of each Trading Card you owned, the username associated with the ownership of those Trading Cards will be pseudonymized and replaced with a random series of alphanumeric characters.

It is essential that you back up all Trading Cards and crypto-currencies stored on your Wallet to an external wallet prior to any deletion request. Any Trading Cards and/or crypto-currencies stored in your Wallet that have not been transferred out of your account by the date of deletion will be permanently unrecoverable. CyLimit will not be responsible for the permanent loss of any Trading Cards and/or crypto-currency that was not backed up prior to a deletion request.

Protecting your Personal Data and complying with the applicable legal framework for data protection are both priorities for CyLimit and we need your help to achieve this. By agreeing to this policy, you agree to keep your Personal Information current on CyLimit and to provide only accurate and up-to-date Personal Information. In addition, if you send us information that would allow us to identify, directly or indirectly, other individuals, you represent and warrant that, prior to sharing such information, this Policy has been communicated to such other individuals and, to the extent applicable, that such individuals have consented to the processing of their Personal Data.
