DEXETERA PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: January 30, 2026

1. PRIVACY PRINCIPLES & ZERO-TRACKING COMMITMENT

Dexetera is designed and operated on a zero-tracking, zero-surveillance foundation. This Privacy Policy explains our minimal data practices and your rights.

Core Principles

Your trading is your business: We do not monitor, profile, or track your trading activity
No personal identification required: We do not collect names, emails, or ID documents
No cookies, no logs: We do not use tracking technologies or retain connection logs
Blockchain-only data: Only data necessary for blockchain settlement is processed
No selling of data: We never sell, license, or share your data with third parties for profit
No profiling: We do not build user profiles or use data for targeted marketing

2. WHAT DATA WE COLLECT

2.1 Blockchain-Derived Data (Necessary for Trading)

To enable trading on Dexetera, we necessarily access:

Your wallet address: Required to settle trades on the blockchain
Transaction data: Trade amounts, prices, timestamps from your blockchain transactions
Smart contract interactions: Data necessary for executing your orders on-chain

Scope: This data is the minimum required for blockchain settlement and is not retained separately from the blockchain itself.

2.2 What We DO NOT Collect

We explicitly do not collect:

Personal identification information (name, email, phone number, address)
Identity verification documents (government ID, passport, biometric data)
Trading history (for purposes other than immediate settlement)
Browsing behavior (pages visited, time spent, clicks)
Device information (device type, OS, browser type)
Connection data (IP addresses as persistent identifiers; see Section 4.2 for temporary infrastructure logs)
Cookies or persistent identifiers
Behavioral profiles or financial history
Communication records (messages, support tickets beyond what is necessary to respond)

3. DATA PROCESSING & LEGAL BASIS

3.1 Legal Basis

To the extent Dexetera processes any personal data subject to GDPR:

Performance of contract: Blockchain-derived wallet addresses and transaction data are processed to perform the trading contract with you
Compliance with legal obligation: If legally required to disclose data to authorities (e.g., financial crime investigations), we will disclose only what is legally mandated
No consent-based processing: We do not use your data for purposes requiring consent (marketing, profiling, etc.)

3.2 Legitimate Interest (Where Applicable)

Platform security: We may process minimal data to prevent fraud, abuse, or unauthorized access
Legal defense: We retain records necessary to defend against legal claims

4. DATA RETENTION

4.1 Blockchain Data

Immutable: Transaction data recorded on the blockchain is permanent and beyond our control
Non-proprietary: Blockchain data exists independently of our systems

4.2 Server Logs (If Any)

Infrastructure logs: If server logs contain IP addresses or connection data, these are deleted after 24 hours
No long-term retention: We do not retain historical logs for surveillance or profiling

4.3 Support & Communication

Support records: If you contact us for support, we retain your message only to respond and resolve your issue
Retention period: Support records are deleted 90 days after issue resolution, unless required by law

4.4 Legal Holds

If involved in legal proceedings, we may retain data as required by law or court order. Upon resolution, such data is deleted unless legally mandated otherwise.

We do not share, sell, license, or disclose your data to:

Marketing firms, data brokers, or analytics companies
Advertising networks or social media platforms
Financial institutions for profiling or lending decisions
Affiliate programs or partner networks
Business partners for commercial purposes

5.2 Exceptions: Required Disclosures

We may disclose data only when legally required:

Law enforcement requests: If compelled by valid legal process (court order, subpoena, warrant)
Regulatory compliance: If required by FINMA, SEC, or similar authorities investigating financial crime
Preventing harm: If necessary to prevent imminent harm, fraud, or illegal activity

Such disclosures are made only to the extent legally mandated, with notice to you if legally permissible.

5.3 Blockchain Data

Blockchain data is public by nature. Your wallet address and transactions are visible to all blockchain users and cannot be made private by us.

6. YOUR RIGHTS (GDPR & Similar Laws)

If you are subject to GDPR, Swiss DPA, or similar privacy laws, you have the following rights:

6.2 Right to Correction

You may request correction of inaccurate data we hold about you.

You may request that we restrict our processing of your data.

6.5 Right to Data Portability

You may request your data in a portable format (e.g., CSV).

6.6 Right to Object

6.7 Right to Lodge a Complaint

8. COOKIES & TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

Dexetera does not use cookies, tracking pixels, persistent identifiers, or browser local storage for tracking or profiling purposes. We do not permit third parties to place tracking technologies on our platform.

9. ANALYTICS & PERFORMANCE MONITORING

Any analytics used is solely for identifying technical issues, measuring platform uptime, and detecting abuse. All such data is aggregated and anonymized — it does not identify you individually.

10. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Dexetera is not intended for use by children under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

11. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

Blockchain data is replicated globally by nature. If you are in the EU/EEA and use Dexetera, you acknowledge that blockchain data will be transferred globally.

If you are a California resident, you may request what personal information we collect, request deletion, opt-out of data sale (we do not sell data), and will not face discrimination for exercising your rights.

13. NEVADA PRIVACY RIGHTS

We do not sell your personal information. Nevada residents' right to opt-out is automatically respected.

14. DATA BREACH NOTIFICATION

If a data breach occurs that affects your personal data, we will notify you without unreasonable delay as required by law (within 72 hours under GDPR).

15. THIRD-PARTY LINKS & SERVICES

Dexetera may link to third-party services (wallets, DEXs, blockchain explorers). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their privacy policies separately.
