2. DATA PROCESSING PURPOSES AND LEGAL BASIS

FU Capital, as a data controller, processes personal data for various purposes and based on different legal grounds. Please note that We may process certain types of personal data for several purposes at the same time. We may receive your data from both You and external sources, such as service providers and other third parties.

2.1. Registration on the Platform. To create a User Profile on the Platform, We will collect Your email account address, telephone number, name, surname, address of residence, citizenship, tax residence, tax identification number, source of funds, a Digital Asset Wallet, or any other information provided in the registration application or submitted to Us in free form or as a document, and any other User wallet information. If You are acting as an authorized representative of legal entity, We will collect Your email account address, telephone number, name, surname or any other information provided in the registration application or submitted to Us in free form or as a document. Once the User Profile is registered, We will gather information on the source of funds You send to Us and will require You to submit any other information or documentation during the performance of Our identity verification and due diligence checks in order to verify You are not directly or indirectly involved in any money laundering, terrorist financing, circumvention or breach of the international sanctions, or any other crime committing schemes. The legal basis for such processing is taking steps prior to entering into an agreement with Us. If You do not verify Your identity and complete the necessary further steps while creating a User Profile, You will not be able to use Our Services, and Your information will be deleted within 30 days.

2.2. User Identification. Prior to providing You with the Services, We are legally required to identify You and perform identity verification and due diligence checks, including as required by anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing requirements set in the laws and regulations applicable to Us.

This includes enabling the purchase of the claims via the Platform and receiving transfers. For this purpose, We will process Your Digital Assets account address and other information associated with Your Wallet.
