Privacy Notice for Personal Information

Lucid Gainworthage considers the careful management of your personal information a fundamental responsibility. This notice describes clearly what we gather, the purposes and methods of use, retention periods, and the safeguards applied under Canadian privacy requirements.

1. Privacy governance and responsible contact

Under applicable privacy laws, the website operator and the Lucid Gainworthage platform are responsible for managing your personal information. Our legal notices provide contact information and additional details. You may send privacy enquiries to our privacy officer.

2. Information collected from you

We collect and use only information reasonably needed to provide services, meet legal obligations and protect the platform. This may include:

  • Identity information: first and last name plus date of birth, used to establish your identity and verify your age.
  • Contact information: email address, optional phone number, province or country of residence and, where applicable, mailing address.
  • Account and activity information: payment details, deposits, withdrawals and transaction history.
  • Technical and access information: IP address, browser and device characteristics, sign-in times and connection logs.
  • Verification information: identification documents, address evidence or other material required for applicable KYC/AML checks.

We generally avoid collecting sensitive information, such as health details or religious beliefs, unless legislation requires it or you specifically permit us to do so.

3. Sources of personal information

We receive information through several protected interactions and channels:

  • Details you provide: for example, while opening an account, updating your profile, completing verification or sending us a message.
  • Details created through use: such as cookies, server logs, analytics and technical information produced by your device when using the platform.
  • Details received from other organizations: including payment providers supporting deposits and withdrawals, KYC/AML vendors or social-login services when you authorize the link.

4. Uses of personal information

We process personal information for specific and lawful purposes explained to you, including:

  • Opening, maintaining and operating your account, along with the platform functions made available to you.
  • Processing and protecting payment activity, including account funding and withdrawals.
  • Handling support enquiries and offering appropriate help.
  • Complying with legal and regulatory responsibilities, including KYC, AML and tax obligations.
  • Protecting our systems while reducing fraud, misuse and cybersecurity threats.
  • Assessing and improving the platform and the user experience.
  • Providing promotional or educational content only when you have opted in to receive it.

5. Legal and permitted processing grounds

  • Providing a service you request or taking requested steps before an agreement is formed.
  • Observing legal requirements, including obligations related to anti-money laundering.
  • Pursuing legitimate operational interests, such as maintaining a dependable and secure platform.
  • Acting on your express permission, including for optional features or promotional communications.

6. Circumstances for information disclosure

We share information only where necessary and with carefully selected providers or other appropriate recipients, such as:

  • Banks, financial organizations and payment processors involved in funding or withdrawing from accounts.
  • Chosen specialist providers that perform KYC/AML checks.
  • Cloud-hosting and technology suppliers operating under suitable data-processing obligations.
  • Analytics and security providers that use anonymized or pseudonymized information where feasible.
  • Professional advisers, including legal and tax specialists, when required for compliance or legal matters.
  • Courts or public bodies when disclosure is required by law or needed to protect legal interests.

We do not sell personal information or disclose it to third parties for their independent marketing or commercial activities.

7. Processing beyond Canada

Some suppliers, including cloud-hosting and analytics providers, may be based outside Canada. In those situations, we use measures intended to safeguard your information in keeping with applicable Canadian privacy requirements.

8. Personal information security

We apply technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information, including:

  • Encrypted data transfers supported by current protections, including TLS 1.3 or a newer version.
  • Strong encryption for sensitive information stored by us, including AES-256 where suitable.
  • Regular security assessments, penetration testing and reviews by independent specialists.
  • Ongoing detection of unusual activity and attempted unauthorized access.
  • Role-based permissions that restrict internal access according to job responsibilities.
  • Client funds held separately through regulated service providers.

Although no technology can remove all security threats, these measures are intended to materially lower the risk of unauthorized disclosure.

9. Retention periods

Personal information is retained only for the stated purpose or for the duration required by applicable law:

  • For as long as your account is active and the relevant contractual relationship continues.
  • After closure, for the period required by law, which can be 5–10 years for tax and regulatory documentation.
  • Where consent is the basis for processing, including marketing, until you withdraw that consent.

Once information is no longer needed, we securely erase it or anonymize it when appropriate.

10. Rights relating to your privacy

Depending on the situation, you may have these rights in relation to your personal information:

  • Ask whether we possess personal information about you and request confirmation.
  • Request that incorrect information be fixed or incomplete records be supplemented.
  • Request erasure when no legal rule requires continued retention.
  • Request restrictions on processing where applicable law allows.
  • Receive information in a commonly used, structured and machine-readable form where portability rights apply.
  • Withdraw consent for future processing whenever consent is the applicable basis.
  • Raise a complaint with the relevant Canadian privacy or data-protection authority.

11. Cookies and comparable technologies

Cookies and similar technologies allow the site to function, measure visitor activity and provide a smoother experience. Essential cookies may operate as needed; analytics and advertising cookies are placed only with consent. Our separate cookie policy contains more information.

12. Policy revisions

We may revise this notice periodically to reflect changes to legislation, regulation or our services. The latest version will stay available online, and significant changes may be announced by email or through the platform.
