- Right to Rectification: You may request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
- Right to Deletion (Erasure): You may request that we delete your personal data. Please note that certain data (such as KYC data and transaction records) must be retained to comply with CBN regulations and cannot be deleted upon request until the mandatory retention period has expired.
- Right to Data Portability: You may request that we provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format so that you can transfer it to another service provider. Data portability will be provided in CSV or JSON format for data you have directly provided to us.
- Right to Object: You may object to the processing of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interest as the legal basis. We will stop processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that we limit how we process your personal data in certain circumstances, such as while we verify the accuracy of your data or assess an objection you have raised.
