Please read this Privacy Policy ("Policy") carefully before using the services provided by Code Forge LLC ("Company"). The Company is a limited liability company, incorporated and acting under the laws of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, company number 3584 LLC 2024, having its registered address at Euro House, Richmond Hill Road, Kingstown, St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

If you are accessing or using our System and Services, you agree to be bound by applicable Terms and Conditions ("Terms"), as well as our Policy (which also includes our Cookie Policy) and any other applicable policies from time to time. If you do not agree to any of these, you must not use our Services and System.

All definitions and rules set forth in the Terms are applicable to this Policy.

This Policy explains how the Company collects, uses, discloses, and protects Users' personal information while providing its Services through the Bot, Forum, Website, Guide, and other digital platforms (collectively, the "System"). By accessing and using the System, Users expressly agree to the terms outlined in this Policy.

1. Company as a data controller

1.1. This Policy is prepared in accordance with the best practices and principles of data protection, with the goal to ensure User’s personal data is processed fairly and lawfully, while the Company is using data only for specified purposes, ensuring data accuracy, retaining data only as necessary, and implementing appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access or breaches.
1.2. The Company is typically the “data controller” of any personal information provided to the Company. Very occasionally, the Company might act on specific retainers as a “processor” (by processing personal data only in accordance with the directions of a data controller).
1.2.1. A data controller is a person or organization that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. In other words, the data controller decides why and how personal data should be processed and is responsible for ensuring compliance with data protection requirements.
1.2.2. A data processor is a person or organization that processes personal data on behalf of a data controller, following the controller’s instructions. The processor does not own or control the data but handles it for specific tasks like storing, analyzing, or transferring information.
1.3. The Company, as a data controller (or in some cases – data processor), has the following obligations:
1.3.1. Data transfers. The Company shall not transfer personal data to country or territory outside the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines unless that country ensures an adequate level of protection for the rights and freedoms of data subjects in relation to the processing of personal data.
1.3.2. Data processing records. The Company shall keep data processing records upon its own decision, unless such record keeping is mandatory legal requirement.
1.3.3. Data protection officer appointment. The Company may assign a data protection officer to ensure proper data protection requirement implementation and optimization of procedures upon its own decision or mandatory legal requirement.
1.3.4. Data breach notification. The Company strives to protect your personal data in the best way possible. However, sometimes data breaches occur, and such event can happen for various reasons. In the case of a data breach that would prejudice the privacy, confidentiality and security of the personal data of a data subject, the Company, as a data controller, immediately upon becoming aware of such breach, shall notify the authorized authority and you (if needed) of such data breach and take action to eliminate or minimize the harm.
1.3.5. Data retention. The Company shall not store personal data after the completion of the purpose for which such data was processed unless the identity of the data subject is no longer identifiable through the use of anonymization techniques.
1.3.6. Sensitive personal data protection. In general, the Company does not process any special categories of personal data from Users. This includes data that reveals racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or ideological convictions or trade union membership, as well as genetic and biometric data. In some cases, during verification, in addition to the actual verification data (e.g. screenshots of ID documents and identification data from them, place of residence, status of politically exposed persons, video data, etc.), biometric data (e.g. personal data resulting from specific technical processing in connection with the physical, physiological or behavioral characteristics of a person and data for the clear identification of a person, e.g. facial images, dactyloscopic data) are recorded. Such processing of biometric data takes place exclusively based on your express consent, which you can revoke at any time.
1.3.7. Proper agreements between controller and processor. The processor shall perform and implement the processing of personal data based on the instructions of the controller and in accordance with the contracts and agreements entered between them, which shall specifically set out the scope, subject-matter, purpose and nature of the processing, the type of personal data, and categories of data subjects. The Company, either acting as a controller or the processor, shall make sure beforehand that such agreements are concluded and are proper for planned data processing.
1.4. If you have any questions regarding the processing of your personal data and the exercise of your rights under this Policy, you can contact our team at business@sigma.win. To answer your inquiry, the Company might require additional identification data from you (e.g. Passport, ID card, etc.) – we want to ensure that your personal data is only passed on to you.
1.5. The Company values the trust that you place in the Company when using Services/System. For this reason, privacy and data security are extremely important to the Company. The Company wants to offer you the best possible experience with the System to ensure that you can enjoy using Services now and in the future. That is why the Company wants to understand user behaviour on the System to continuously improve it. The processing of your personal data is therefore not only necessary for the provision of Services, but also to improve user-friendliness. Therefore, in this Policy you are informed which personal data the Company collects from you, how the Company processes it and to whom the Company passes it on in detail. In addition, the Company informs you about the precautions it takes to protect your personal data, what rights you have in this context and who you can contact regarding data protection issues.
