At NETZ (referred to as NETZ and its subsidiaries)1, we highly value your privacy and are committed to protecting it through this privacy policy ("Policy"). This Policy explains the types of information we may collect from you or that you provide ("Personal Information") through our "NETZ Pro" mobile application ("Mobile Application" or "Service") and any associated products and services (referred to as "Services"). Additionally, it describes how we collect, use, maintain, protect, and disclose this Personal Information. It also outlines the choices you have regarding the use of your Personal Information and how you can access and update it.
This Policy is a legally binding agreement between you ("User", "you", or "your") and NETZ (operating as "NETZ", "we", "us", or "our"). If you're accepting this Policy on behalf of a business or other legal entity, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that entity to this Policy. Consequently, the terms "User", "you", or "your" apply to such entities. If you don't have such authority or disagree with the terms of this Policy, you must reject it, which means you cannot access or use the Mobile Application and Services. By using the Mobile Application and Services, you acknowledge that you've read, understood, and agreed to follow the rules of this Policy.
It's important to note that this Policy doesn't cover the practices of companies we don't own or control, or individuals we don't employ or manage.

This data may encompass details such as your device’s IP address and location, device name and version, operating system type and version, language preferences, content searched within the Mobile Application, access times and dates, and other pertinent statistics.
The information collected automatically serves the sole purpose of identifying potential instances of misuse and compiling statistical data concerning the usage of the Mobile Application and Services. It's important to note that this statistical information is aggregated in a manner that does not permit the identification of any specific User within the system.

If, however, you wish to use some of the features offered in the Mobile Application, you may be asked to provide certain Personal Information (for example, your name and email address).

We screen your wallet using intelligence provided by leading blockchain analytics providers. Note that blockchain addresses are publicly-available data that are not created or assigned by us or any central party, and by themselves are not personally identifying.
We serve as both a data controller and a data processor when handling Personal Information, unless a data processing agreement has been established with you, in which case you would be the data controller and we would be the data processor.

We cannot guarantee the absolute security, integrity, or privacy of information exchanged between you and our Mobile Application and Services. Despite our best efforts, there is a possibility that such information may be intercepted or altered by third parties during transmission.
