1. Information We Collect
When you create an account or interact with the Horizon Equity platform, we may collect the following categories of information:
- Account Identification: Email address, encrypted authentication hashes, contact telephone number.
- Identity Verification (KYC): Government-issued ID, proof of residence, source of wealth declarations (for institutional tiers).
- Transactional Telemetry: Public blockchain wallet addresses, transaction hashes, internal allocation timestamps.
- Technical Metrics: Device fingerprints, browser headers, IP addresses for security anomaly detection.
2. How We Utilize Your Data
Collected telemetry and identity information is utilized strictly for lawful business purposes:
- Executing and settling multi-asset algorithmic contracts.
- Preventing unauthorized withdrawals, account takeovers, and fraudulent operations.
- Complying with international Anti-Money Laundering (AML) reporting obligations.
- Delivering transactional statements, maturity notices, and security advisories.
3. Storage, Encryption & Vault Security
All databases containing personal or transactional information are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. Transmission of data across public networks is secured using TLS 1.3 protocol suites with strict cipher suites.
Cold wallet cryptographic private keys never touch internet-connected environments and are permanently air-gapped in institutional vault hardware modules.
5. Your Rights Under GDPR & Global Frameworks
Subject to jurisdictional requirements, you have the right to request access to your personal data, rectify inaccuracies, request account data deletion, or restrict automated processing.
Certain financial ledger records must be retained for minimum statutory periods mandated by financial regulatory statutes.
6. Data Retention Limits
We retain personal identification data for as long as your account remains open and active, plus any additional period mandated by applicable banking and AML statutory obligations (typically five to seven years post-closure).
