8.1 Functional Cookies. ct555 uses strictly necessary cookies to maintain your login session, remember your language preference, and ensure the Platform operates correctly. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing Platform functionality.

8.2 Analytics Cookies. ct555 may use analytics cookies to understand how users navigate the Platform, which features are most used, and where technical errors occur. This data is processed in aggregate and does not identify you individually.

8.3 Managing Cookies. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling functional cookies will affect your ability to stay logged in to ct555.

Identity verification documents are retained for the minimum period required by applicable AML and KYC regulations.

When data is no longer required for any of the purposes described in this Policy, ct555 securely deletes or anonymises it.

If you believe a minor has registered an account on ct555, please notify us at [email protected] immediately.

12. Security Measures

ct555 implements industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit, encrypted storage for sensitive data at rest, access controls limiting staff access to personal data on a need-to-know basis, and regular security reviews of our systems and processes.

While ct555 takes data security seriously, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your ct555 login credentials confidential and for notifying ct555 immediately if you suspect unauthorised account access.

13. Third-Party Links

The ct555 Platform does not contain links to external third-party websites. If you navigate away from ct555.org using a search engine or external reference, ct555 has no control over and assumes no responsibility for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites.

ct555 reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time. When material changes are made, ct555 will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide notice via the Platform or by email to your registered address. Continued use of ct555 following notification of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
