Purposes of Processing and Legal Bases
We only process your personal data where we have a valid legal basis to do so under Article 6 of the GDPR. These legal bases are explained below, along with the specific purposes for which we process your data.
| Purpose of Processing | Legal Basis under GDPR |
|---|---|
| To provide you with access to the Platform. | Contractual necessity (Article 6(1)(b)) – Required to fulfill our agreement with you. |
| To deliver the services you have requested, respond to your inquiries, or handle specific requests. | Contractual necessity (Article 6(1)(b)) – To provide services you have actively requested. |
| To operate and manage the Platform and its functionalities. | Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) – To ensure the stable and efficient operation of our services. |
| To maintain system integrity, detect fraud, and prevent misuse. | Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) – To protect the Platform and its users from fraudulent or malicious activity. |
| To communicate with users who have requested or opted in for support or assistance. | Contractual necessity (Article 6(1)(b)) – If related to a service request; Consent (Article 6(1)(a)) – If you have explicitly agreed to be contacted. |
| To comply with applicable legal obligations and resolve disputes. | Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)) – For compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. |

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we carefully assess the potential impact on your rights and ensure that those interests do not override your fundamental freedoms. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing prior to its withdrawal.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use essential, functional, and limited analytics cookies to ensure the proper functioning and improvement of the Platform.
Where legally required, we obtain your explicit consent before placing any non-essential cookies on your device.
You can manage or withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time through the cookie preference banner accessible on our website. Further details about the types of cookies we use, their purposes, retention periods, and the identity of any third-party cookie providers are outlined in our Cookies Policy.
The legal basis for using essential cookies is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) in maintaining the security and functionality of the website.
For non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics), we rely on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR).
Data Sharing and Third-Party Access
We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties under any circumstances.
We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients, strictly for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, and only where a valid legal basis and appropriate safeguards are in place:
- Hosting and infrastructure providers, who support the operation and maintenance of our Platform.
(Legal basis: contractual necessity or legitimate interests) - Analytics service providers, who help us improve our services through aggregated usage data.
(Legal basis: consent, where applicable) - Professional advisors (e.g., legal counsel, auditors), who are bound by confidentiality obligations.
(Legal basis: legitimate interests or legal obligations) - Legal, regulatory, or governmental authorities, where we are required by law to disclose personal data.
(Legal basis: legal obligation)
All data sharing is governed by Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) or equivalent contractual arrangements. Where possible, data is shared in pseudonymized or aggregated form to reduce identifiability.
International Transfers
Where data is transferred outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), we implement appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent mechanisms, to ensure compliance with applicable data protection standards.
Unless the individual has specifically consented to the transfer, we will only transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) where:
- we transfer the data to a country or international organisation which the EU Commission has decided to ensure an adequate level of protection for your personal data;
- The transfer of your personal data is subject to adequate safeguards, which may include binding corporate rules or standard data protection clauses adopted by the EU Commission. (The standard contractual clauses may be used for such transfers only to the extent that the processing by the importer does not fall within the scope of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. This also includes the transfer of personal data by a controller or processor not established in the Union, to the extent that the processing is subject to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (pursuant to Article 3(2) thereof), because it relates to the offering of goods or services to data subjects in the Union or the monitoring of their behaviour as far as it takes place within the Union.); or
- one of the derogations in the GDPR to transfer personal data outside the EEA applies.
You may request more information or obtain a copy of the relevant safeguards by contacting us at privacy@nexory.io
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy or as required by applicable laws and regulations, such as tax, accounting, anti-money laundering (AML), or other legal obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature, category, and use of the data.
For example:
- Account information is retained for as long as your account remains active and for a limited period thereafter (e.g., up to 12 months) in order to facilitate account reactivation, respond to legal claims, or resolve disputes.
- Transaction data (e.g., invoices, payment confirmations, billing records) is retained for 6 years after the end of your relationship with us, in accordance with Cyprus tax law.
- Data collected under Anti-Money Laundering (AML) laws, where applicable, is retained for a period of 5 years in line with the relevant AML/CTF legal framework.
- Support communications (e.g., help desk or contact form submissions) are retained for up to 24 months, to help us respond to recurring issues and improve service.
- Analytics and usage data may be retained in aggregated or anonymized form for internal reporting and platform optimization. This data does not identify you personally.
When personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, we take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure its secure deletion, anonymization, or—where appropriate—pseudonymization.
Retention periods are periodically reviewed to ensure they remain appropriate and compliant with applicable legal requirements.
You may request the deletion of your personal data at any time, subject to our legitimate interests and legal obligations. See the “Your Rights” section below for details on how to exercise this right.

Security Measures
We implement a range of appropriate technical and organizational measures (TOMs) in accordance with Article 32 of the GDPR, based on the nature of the data we process, the risks involved, and industry best practices. These measures aim to protect personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
- Technical Measures
- Data Encryption: All personal data is encrypted both in transit (via HTTPS/TLS 1.3) and at rest (using AES-256 or equivalent).
- Access Control: Role-based access control (RBAC) is enforced. Production environments are strictly separated from staging/development. Access is granted on a least-privilege basis.
- Authentication: All internal/admin access requires two-factor authentication (2FA). End-user authentication is managed via OAuth (e.g., Google, Telegram) or secure email-based login.
- Monitoring & Logging: All access to infrastructure is logged, monitored, and subject to regular audits and anomaly detection.
- Security Testing: We conduct regular vulnerability assessments, automated dependency updates, and third-party penetration testing.
- Hosting & Infrastructure: Data is hosted with GDPR-compliant providers (e.g., Digital Ocean) on secure servers protected by industry-standard firewalls and DDoS protection.
- Data Minimization & Pseudonymization: We collect only what is necessary. Where applicable, we use UUIDs instead of direct identifiers, and separate personal data from behavioral data.
- Anonymization: Aggregated analytics are anonymized in a non-reversible, non-attributable format.
- Organizational Measures
- Personnel Access: Only authorized staff have access to systems handling personal data. All staff and contractors are subject to NDAs and confidentiality agreements.
- Training & Awareness: Security and data protection training is provided to all employees.
- Data Protection Governance: Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) are conducted where required.
- Data Breach Preparedness
We have a documented incident response plan in place. In the event of a personal data breach, we will notify the competent supervisory authority within 72 hours, and affected individuals when required under Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR.
- Sub-Processor Governance
We engage third-party service providers (sub-processors) only after appropriate due diligence and enter into Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with all such providers, including contractual safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) where required.
- International Data Transfers
If personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), such transfers are made in compliance with Chapter V of the GDPR, using SCCs, adequacy decisions, or other legally recognized safeguards.
- Data Retention & Deletion
Personal data is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, and then securely deleted or anonymized according to our retention policy.
- Enabling Data Subject Rights
Our technical infrastructure supports the exercise of data subject rights under the GDPR, including the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, and data portability.
Children’s Privacy
The Platform is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If we become aware that we have collected data from a minor, we will promptly delete it.
Changes to this Policy
We reserve the right to update this Policy at any time. If material changes are made, we will notify users by updating the “Effective Date” above and, where appropriate, via direct communication. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
