1 – What Information do we collect?We collect two types of data and information from Users who access our Platform.
The first type of information is un-identified and non-identifiable information pertaining to a User(s), which may be made available or gathered via your access to the Platform (“Non-Personal Information”). We are not aware of the identity of a User from which the Non-Personal Information was collected. Non-personal Information which is being collected may include your aggregated usage information and technical information transmitted by your device, including certain software and hardware information (e.g. browser type, language preference, access time, etc.) in order to enhance the functionality of our Platform. We may also collect information on your activity on the Platform (e.g. clicks, actions, etc.).
The second type of information is individually identifiable information, namely information that identifies an individual or may with reasonable effort identify an individual (“Personal Information”). Such information includes:
· Contact information: The Platform provides you with the option to fill in contact information. If you choose to contact us through our Platform or by any other means, you will be asked to provide us with your name and email address.
· Registration information: If you wish to use our Platform, you will be asked to provide us with certain details such as your full name and email address. We may also use trusted third party providers to enrich and authenticate such information.
Based on the nature of your registration (an investor or an expert), you will be asked to provide us with further details as set forth in a registration questionnaire.
· Device Information: We may also collect Personal Information from your device. Such information includes geolocation data, IP address, unique identifiers (e.g. MAC address and UUID), and other information which relates to your activity through the Platform.
If we associate Non-Personal Information with Personal Information, we will treat such information as Personal Information.
