      Examples of such purposes of processing are:

      before the User may use the Services on the Salto X Platform and during the cooperation with the User under the Agreement, Salto X performs the due diligence of the User, to verify the User's identity and to keep the User's data updated and correct by verifying and enriching data through external and internal registers;

      to prevent, discover, investigate, and report money laundering, and terrorist financing;

      to comply with rules and regulations related to accounting, tax information exchange, and risk management.

    3. Legitimate interest

      Some purposes of the User's Personal Data processing are based on Salto X legitimate interests balanced against the User's as a data subject's interests and rights.

      Examples of such purposes of processing are:

      to provide the User with additional Services, create offers, and direct marketing activities through different channels;

      to develop, examine and improve Salto X business, the Services, and the User experience, to strengthen User’s satisfaction and loyalty, as well to strengthen Salto X brand, to perform surveys, analyses, and statistics;

The User can withdraw given consent at any time.

    Profiling is any form of automated processing of Personal Data used to assess certain personal characteristics of the User, in particular, to analyse or predict, for example, the economic situation, personal preferences, interests, and place of residence.

Salto X may make automated decisions in such processes as risk management and transaction monitoring to counter fraud in compliance with the regulatory legislation in areas of anti-money laundering, terrorism, and proliferation financing.

  6. Transfer of Personal Data to third parties

    As part of Salto X processing, Salto X may share the User's data with certain recipients such as authorities, Salto X group companies, suppliers, payment service providers, and business partners.

    Recipients may process the User's Personal Data by acting as data processors and/or as data controllers. When a recipient processes the User's Personal Data on its own behalf as a data controller, the recipient is responsible for providing information on such processing of the User's Personal Data. Salto X undertakes to guarantee appropriate technical and organisational security measures to ensure that the Personal Data processor upholds security standards that are not lower than the security standards set by Salto X.

    participants and/or parties related to domestic, European, and international payments;

    persons and suppliers related to the provision of the Services of Salto X, such as providers of IT, telecommunications, payment intermediaries, credit institutions, hosting, archiving, postal services, etc.
