Authorised recipients include payment processors for transaction handling, identity verification services for compliance checks, and regulatory authorities when legally required. We engage with fraud prevention agencies, customer support providers, and technical service partners under comprehensive data processing agreements. Marketing partners may receive limited information where explicit consent is provided, with full opt-out mechanisms available.
We never sell personal information to third parties for commercial purposes. All sharing arrangements include contractual obligations for data protection, security measures, and purpose limitations.

Account information is typically retained for seven years following account closure to meet anti-money laundering and taxation obligations. Transaction records are maintained for six years as required by financial regulations. Marketing communications data is retained until consent withdrawal or account termination. Technical data including logs and analytics information is retained for shorter periods typically not exceeding two years.
