This Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your information when you interact with our services. It is essential to read this Privacy Policy alongside any other privacy notices we may provide when collecting or processing your personal information. This ensures you fully understand how and why we use this data.
This policy covers all services provided by 1505322 B.C LTD, operating as HappyCoins (“we,” “our,” or “HappyCoins”), a British Columbia corporation located at 5577 153A Street, Suite 207, Surrey, BC, V3S 5K7, registered under the number BC1505322 and registered with FINTRAC as a Money Service Business (MSB) dealing in virtual currencies. For users in Canada, we comply with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). This includes obtaining consent for data collection and ensuring data is protected and used appropriately.
HappyCoins is established in Canada and offers its Services from Canada. The Services are not specifically directed to individuals outside Canada, including in the European Union or European Economic Area. If you access or use the Services from outside Canada, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
For privacy-related inquiries, requests, or complaints, contact our Privacy Officer at: [email protected].
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at www.priv.gc.ca.
We use your information only with your consent or as permitted by law. We obtain your consent to collect, use, disclose, and store your personal information when you:
By using our Services, you give your affirmative consent to the practices outlined in this Privacy Policy. This includes complying with all related terms and conditions as well as applicable laws and regulations. Your consent remains valid throughout your relationship with HappyCoins. If you disagree with any part of the Privacy Policy, we advise you not to use our Services.
We collect, use, disclose, and retain personal information with your knowledge and consent, except where permitted or required by law.
We process personal information as necessary to:
(a) provide and secure the Services;
(b) verify identity and prevent fraud;
(c) comply with legal and regulatory obligations, including anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing requirements and reporting to FINTRAC; and
(d) enforce our Terms and protect the integrity of our Platform.
Here is a detailed breakdown of the types of information we collect during your interaction with our Services, why we collect it, and when we may share it with third parties:
We may use third-party identity verification services to assist in verifying your identity and preventing fraud. These services may receive your name, address, date of birth, phone number, identification documents, and related information. Data shared with these providers is subject to their respective privacy policies and data retention schedules.
When sending money to HappyCoins, your bank or payment service provider collects your information. Some of your data, such as your name and bank account information, may be transmitted by your bank to our banking partners or payment processors as part of the information included in the payment notification. For withdrawals, we share the beneficiary payment information with our processing partners or banks, which may include the name, bank account, and address of the beneficiary, as required to process bank transactions.
When you communicate with HappyCoins via our platform, email, or other channels, we may collect your name, email, phone number, and the content of your communication. This helps us provide better service, handle your requests, and comply with legal obligations.
Data Protection: We are committed to keeping your information safe. We employ technological and administrative safeguards, including encryption of data in transit and at rest, secure infrastructure, and strict access controls. However, no service can be completely secure. If you have concerns about a data breach, please contact us immediately.
Data Retention: We retain your personal information as necessary, subject to applicable laws and regulations. In accordance with our record-keeping obligations under FINTRAC regulations, we will retain Accounts and Personal Information for at least a period of five (5) years after the last transaction or account closure. We may retain certain information for longer periods where required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, respond to lawful requests, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, or prevent fraud.
Post-Retention Data Management: Data is securely deleted or de-identified after the retention period. Deletion permanently erases data, while de-identification prevents identifying individuals.
International Data Transfers: If your personal data is transferred outside of Canada, we ensure it is protected by appropriate safeguards, including contractual protections that provide a comparable level of data protection.
Children’s Privacy: Our services are not intended for individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If a minor provides data without consent, we will remove it and terminate the associated Account.
Under PIPEDA, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
How to Exercise Your Rights: To exercise your rights, contact us by email at [email protected]. HappyCoins will action your request only where this is not inconsistent with its Terms and Conditions, legal, and regulatory obligations. In certain circumstances, applicable anti-money laundering laws may restrict what we can disclose to you, including situations where disclosure could interfere with regulatory reporting or investigations.
We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system, and browser type, for system administration, security, and fraud prevention purposes. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns and does not by itself identify any individual.
