  • Marketing preferences: your opt-in/opt-out choices for promotional communications

3. Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data under the following legal bases as set out in Article 6 GDPR:

  • Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)): to provide you with the Service, manage your account, process transactions, and respond to your requests
  • Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): to comply with applicable anti-money laundering (AML), know-your-customer (KYC), counter-financing of terrorism (CFT), and other regulatory requirements
  • Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): to prevent fraud, ensure platform security, improve our services, and carry out internal analytics — where these interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms
  • Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): for marketing communications and non-essential cookies, where you have given us your explicit consent

4. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure, including:

  • Encryption in transit: all data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher
  • Encryption at rest: personal and financial data stored on our systems is encrypted using AES-256
  • Access controls: access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis, with role-based access controls and audit logging
  • Vulnerability management: regular security assessments, penetration testing, and patch management

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware (Article 33 GDPR), and where required, notify you directly without undue delay (Article 34 GDPR).

5. Your Rights

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data:

  • Right of access (Art. 15): to obtain a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Right to rectification (Art. 16): to have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected
  • Right to erasure (Art. 17): to request deletion of your data in certain circumstances ("right to be forgotten")
  • Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18): to limit how we process your data in certain circumstances
  • Right to data portability (Art. 20): to receive your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format
  • Right to object (Art. 21): to object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling
  • Rights related to automated decision-making (Art. 22): not to be subject to solely automated decisions that significantly affect you, without human review

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@dinocard.com. We will respond within 30 days. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection supervisory authority.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with our legal obligations:

  • Account data: for the duration of your relationship with us and for 5 years after account closure
  • Transaction records: 5 years from the date of the transaction, in line with PSD2 and AML obligations
  • Application and server logs: 13 months on a rolling basis
  • Marketing communications data: until you withdraw your consent or opt out

After the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymised.

  • KYC/AML providers: with identity verification and fraud prevention service providers for regulatory compliance purposes
  • Cloud sub-processors: with cloud infrastructure and technology vendors that process data on our behalf under appropriate data processing agreements (DPAs)
  • Analytics: anonymised and aggregated usage data may be shared with analytics partners; this cannot be used to identify you
  • Legal requirements: where required by law, court order, or a competent regulatory authority

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission.
