This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and share it, and the rights available to you under applicable data protection law, including the Mauritius Data Protection Act 2017 ("DPA 2017"). By using our Website or Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy should be read alongside our Cookie Policy, AML Policy, and Terms & Conditions, which form part of the same set of legal documents governing your relationship with us.
This Policy applies to:
Regulus Liquidity does not knowingly offer its Services to, or collect personal information from, residents of the United States, Cuba, Iraq, Myanmar, North Korea, Sudan, India, or any other jurisdiction where doing so would violate local law, consistent with the restrictions set out in our Risk Disclosure.
We collect the following categories of personal information:
Identity and contact information: full name, date of birth, nationality, residential address, email address, telephone number, and government-issued identification (passport, driving licence, national ID).
Verification and financial information: proof of address (utility bills, bank statements), source of funds and source of wealth documentation, employment and income information, and bank or payment account details, collected to satisfy our Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering / Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) obligations.
Account and trading information: your unique account identifier (UID), trading account and eWallet activity, order and position history, account balances, and communications relating to your account.
Technical and usage information: IP address, device and browser type, log-in timestamps, and website usage data, collected in part through cookies and similar technologies (see our Cookie Policy for full details on the categories of cookies we use and how to manage your preferences).
Communications: records of correspondence when you contact us, including support enquiries, complaints, and responses to voluntary surveys.
Marketing preferences: your choices regarding whether you wish to receive marketing communications from us, and your engagement with those communications.
We collect this information directly from you (for example, on account opening or when you contact support), automatically through your use of the Website and trading platforms, and, where relevant, from third parties such as identity verification providers, payment providers, and publicly available sources used for sanctions and AML screening.
We process your personal information on the following legal bases:
To perform our contract with you: opening and administering your trading account and eWallet, executing and settling your trading orders, processing deposits and withdrawals, and providing client support.
To comply with our legal and regulatory obligations: verifying your identity, screening for sanctions and politically exposed persons, monitoring for suspicious activity, and retaining records as required under Mauritius AML/CFT legislation, FSC regulatory requirements, and applicable international standards, including FATF recommendations.
Based on our legitimate interests: maintaining the security and integrity of our systems, preventing fraud, improving our Services and Website, and managing our business relationship with you, provided these interests do not override your rights.
Based on your consent: sending you marketing communications about products, services, or promotions that may be of interest to you, and using non-essential cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time as described in Section 9. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
If you decline to provide information required for a service or feature, or withdraw information still needed for the original purpose of processing, we may be unable to provide that service or feature. Where information is required to meet a legal or regulatory obligation, declining to provide it may result in restrictions on your account, including suspension of trading activity or a freeze on funds held with us, and may require us to report the matter to the relevant authorities.
We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information. We share it only in the following circumstances:
All third parties who receive personal information from us are contractually required to protect it to a standard consistent with this Policy.
As a Mauritius-regulated broker serving clients internationally, your personal information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in Mauritius or in other countries where we, our affiliates, or our service providers operate. Where we transfer personal information outside of Mauritius, we take appropriate steps, including contractual safeguards, to ensure the information continues to receive a level of protection consistent with this Policy and applicable law.
We retain your personal information for as long as our business relationship with you continues, and generally for five years following the end of that relationship, in line with our obligations under Mauritius AML/CFT legislation and FSC record-keeping requirements.
Actual retention periods vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected. The criteria we use to determine retention periods include:
Where information is subject to a specific statutory retention requirement (for example, AML/CFT records), we will continue to retain that information for the required period even where you have requested erasure of other personal information, as described in Section 9.
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our Website, remember your preferences, understand how our Website is used, and support our marketing activities. Full details of the categories of cookies we use, their purposes, and how you can manage or disable them are set out in our Cookie Policy. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our Website.
We maintain technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction, including by our own staff.
These measures include pseudonymisation of client data: on establishing a business relationship with us, your accounts are assigned a unique identifier (UID), and this UID rather than your name is used across most of our internal systems. We apply encryption to data in transit and at rest, using industry-standard protocols (including TLS with keys of 2048 bits or greater), together with hardware and network security controls. Access to systems containing personal information is restricted to personnel and third parties who require it to perform their role, and all staff and contracted third parties are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations, which we audit for compliance.
No system can be guaranteed completely secure. If we become aware of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will assess the breach, take steps to contain and remediate it, and, where required by applicable law, notify the Mauritius Data Protection Office and affected individuals without undue delay.
Subject to applicable law, including the DPA 2017, you have the right to:
Your right to erasure does not extend to personal information we are required to retain to meet statutory or regulatory obligations, including AML/CFT record-keeping requirements described in Section 6.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 13. We will respond to requests to access, rectify, or erase your personal information within 30 days.
If you believe your rights under this Policy or applicable law have been infringed, and you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Mauritius Data Protection Office (dataprotection.govmu.org) or the relevant supervisory authority in your own jurisdiction, and to seek recourse before a competent court.
Our Services are intended for individuals who meet the minimum age and legal capacity requirements to open a trading account under our Terms & Conditions and applicable law, and are not directed at, or knowingly offered to, minors. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a minor, we will take steps to delete it.
Our Website may contain links to third-party websites, including partner and affiliate sites. This Policy applies only to information collected by Regulus Liquidity. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information to them.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, our Services, or applicable law. Where changes are material, we will post the updated Policy on our Website together with a notice of the change and an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of our Website or Services after such changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
