This policy is intended to inform you of the types of information we collect, with whom we share it, what it is used for, how we keep it secure, and what constitutes your data privacy rights.
If you have any questions or concerns about our use of your personal information, please contact us by sending an email to info@GDMAXfx.com.

* What personal information does GDMAX collect and why?

  • Open an account through our website

  • Subscribe to services or publications of GDMAX or related third parties

  • Request a marketing message sent to you

  • Participate in contests, promotions or questionnaires

In addition to the above, some parts of our website may require you to provide personal information on a voluntary basis (e.g., in order to subscribe to marketing newsletters and/or submit inquiries). The personal information you are required to provide and the reasons for providing it will be made clear to you when we ask you to provide it.

The information we obtain automatically

When you visit our website, we may automatically obtain certain information from your device. This information may be considered personal information in some countries in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

Specifically, the information we obtain automatically may include your IP location, device type, unique device identifier, browser type, approximate geographic location (such as country or city location), and other technical information. We may also obtain information about how your device communicates with our website and emails, including the pages visited and the links clicked.

We collect this information to better understand our website visitors, where they come from and what content is of interest to them on our website. This information is used for internal analysis and to improve the quality and relevance of the site for our visitors.

Information we obtain through third parties or public sources

Sometimes we may obtain your personal information from third party sources, but only if those third parties have obtained your consent or are permitted or required by law to disclose your personal information to us.

We use the information we receive from third parties to enhance the services we provide to you, for example by providing content related to our services or topics of interest to you.

* Who does GDMAX share my personal information with?

We may disclose your personal information to the following types of recipients∶

  • Our group companies, third party service providers and partners who provide data processing services (such as supporting the delivery of the website, providing functionality or helping to enhance the security of our website) or who process personal information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or who inform you when we obtain your personal information.

  • (i) under applicable law or regulation, (ii) to exercise, establish or defend our legal rights, or (iii) to protect the vital interests of you or any other person, to any competent law enforcement agency, regulatory, governmental body, court or other third party that we believe is necessary for disclosure.

  • Any prospective buyer (and its agents and advisors) of a proposed purchase, merger or acquisition of our business, provided that we inform the buyer that your personal information must be used only for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

  • Any other person to whom you have consented for disclosure.

* Provisions for handling personal information

The lawful basis for our acquisition and use of such personal information will depend on the personal information in question and the circumstances in which we acquire it.

However, we will generally only obtain your personal information with your consent and when we need that information to perform a contract with you. In some cases, we may be legally obligated to obtain personal information from you, or may need personal information to protect important interests.

If we require you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to fulfil a contract with you, we will clearly state and advise at the relevant time whether we are compelling you to provide your personal information (and what the consequences may be if you do not provide it).
