Privacy Notice

1. Overview and Scope

Pierre Valorette ("we", "our", or "us") is dedicated to safeguarding the privacy and security of your personal data. This Privacy Notice describes our practices regarding the collection, use, retention, disclosure, and protection of information obtained through your engagement with the Pierre Valorette platform, algorithmic infrastructure, and associated digital services.

We process personal data in compliance with applicable United Kingdom data protection legislation, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. When you access or use the Platform, you acknowledge the data handling procedures outlined herein.

2. Categories of Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with our automated execution software and analytical tools, we may collect and process the following categories of data:

• Identity and Contact Data: Name, email address, telephone contact, country of residence, and any communication records transmitted during technical support engagements.
• Account and Operational Data: Login timestamps, multi-factor verification statuses, algorithmic routing parameters, custom risk thresholds, and trading configuration history.
• Technical and Network Telemetry: Internet Protocol (IP) address, operating system, browser configuration, device fingerprint data, connection latency logs, and automated diagnostic reports.
• Wallet and On-Chain Telemetry: Public blockchain addresses, read-only exchange API keys (excluding withdrawal permissions), transaction hashes, and smart contract execution receipts.

3. Legal Bases and Purposes of Processing

Under UK data protection laws, we ensure that every processing activity relies on an established lawful basis. We process your data for the following specific purposes:

• Contractual Performance: Enabling account activation, algorithmic market order routing, real-time alert delivery, and customer technical assistance.
• Legitimate Interests: Protecting platform integrity, detecting algorithmic abuse or malicious intrusions, optimizing computational efficiency, and auditing system load.
• Legal Compliance: Satisfying statutory audit standards, assisting lawful regulatory inquiries, and adhering to financial compliance obligations.
• Consent: Providing non-essential communication updates and marketing announcements where you have granted unambiguous prior consent.

4. Data Retention and Safeguards

We retain personal information only for the duration necessary to satisfy the specific purposes detailed in this policy, unless a prolonged statutory retention period is required by applicable law or regulatory authority.

We implement stringent technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, destruction, loss, or alteration. These measures encompass end-to-end transport layer encryption (TLS 1.3), encrypted database storage at rest (AES-256), strict role-based access controls, and regular external vulnerability penetration testing.

5. Disclosure to Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to external third parties. We may disclose personal information solely under strict contractual obligations to:

• Trusted third-party infrastructure providers hosting cloud compute, secure telemetry databases, and automated error diagnostics;
• Identity verification and anti-fraud analysis services deployed to ensure network compliance;
• Competent law enforcement, regulatory bodies, or legal courts when legally compelled by an enforceable statutory order or court decree under English jurisdiction.

6. International Data Transfers

Given the distributed nature of high-frequency algorithmic nodes and cloud architecture, personal data may occasionally be transferred to and processed in countries outside the United Kingdom. When such transfers occur, we implement legally recognized safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or standard contractual clauses, ensuring an equivalent level of protection.

7. Your Statutory Data Protection Rights

Under the UK GDPR, you hold defined rights regarding your personal information, which you may exercise without fee:

• Right of Access: Request a confirmation and copy of the personal information held about you;
• Right to Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete data records;
• Right to Erasure: Request the deletion of your personal records where no overriding legal obligation requires retention;
• Right to Restrict Processing: Request suspension of data processing under certain contestability circumstances;
• Right to Data Portability: Receive your provided data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact our Data Protection Team at [email protected]. You also maintain the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

8. Cookies and Storage Technologies

The Platform utilizes essential technical session tokens and strictly required cookies to authenticate users, protect against cross-site request forgery, and maintain security across algorithmic sessions. Non-essential analytical telemetry is only loaded where consent has been designated via browser settings or user confirmation.

9. Updates to this Notice

We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Notice as our technical architecture evolves or regulatory frameworks adapt. Any modifications will become effective immediately upon posting to this page, marked with an updated revision date.
