Data Transfer Outside the EU
We may transfer your personal data to countries outside the European Union (EU) in order to provide our services. This includes sharing data with non-EU providers such as Cloudflare and Proton Mail (Switzerland).
Purpose
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires clarification on data transfer mechanisms when personal data is shared with providers outside the EU. This is to ensure that your data is adequately protected, even when processed outside the EU.
Data Transfer Mechanisms
To ensure that your personal data receives an adequate level of protection, we use some of the following data transfer mechanisms:
- Adequacy Decisions: Where applicable, we rely on adequacy decisions by the European Commission, confirming that the non-EU country in question offers an adequate level of data protection.
- Explicit Consent: In certain cases, we may obtain your explicit consent before transferring your personal data to countries without an adequacy decision or other appropriate safeguards.
Third-Party Services
Our use of non-EU providers includes:
- Cloudflare: We use Cloudflare for web analytics, website security, and email routing (Cloudflare Email Routing). By using our Service, you agree to the privacy policies and terms of service of Cloudflare. Check the Cloudflare Privacy Policy and Terms of Service here.

Explicit Consent for Data Transfer to the US
By using our services, you explicitly consent to the transfer of your personal data to the United States, where different data protection standards may apply. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data as required by applicable data protection laws. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, but understand that if you do so, you will no longer be able to use our website, the nuxBot software and service, as it relies on these data transfers to the U.S. This withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of data processing that occurred before the withdrawal.
By using our services, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the EU, where different data protection standards may apply. However, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data as required by applicable data protection laws.
Automated Trading and AI Predictions
Our software includes automated trading algorithms that allow users to configure their own trading strategies. These algorithms operate based on parameters and settings you define, enabling automated trades according to your chosen strategy. Additionally, our software offers AI-based prediction features to assist in strategy formation. This AI functionality runs locally on your device and does not transmit prediction data back to us. You remain in full control of configuring, activating, and utilizing these features, and our software does not independently adjust or override your settings.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal data based on the following legal grounds:
- Consent: We may process your information if you have given us explicit consent to use your personal data for specific purposes. This includes situations where you have opted in to receive marketing communications or other updates from us.
- Contract: We process your personal data to perform our obligations under the contract we have with you. This includes using your data to provide the services you have purchased or requested, managing your account, and processing payments.

We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. This includes retaining your data:
- For the duration of your account/license: We will keep your data for as long as you have an active account or a valid license with us.
