Cookies are small pieces of data — usually text files — placed on your computer, tablet, phone or similar device when you use that device to access our services. You can opt out of having your online activity and device data collected through these third-party services, including by:
We may use plug-ins from social networks on Notch and/or maintain pages on social platforms, such as Telegram, Discord, X (formerly Twitter), and other third-party platforms. When you activate plug-ins by clicking on them, the operators of the respective social platforms may record that you are on Notch and may use this information. Additionally, when you visit or interact with Notch-related pages on those social media platforms, the relevant social platform's privacy policy will apply to your interactions and their collection, use and processing of your personal information. You may provide us with information through Notch, and we will treat such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Notch SRL is not responsible for data collected by these individual social media platforms, and any processing of your personal data by social media platforms is solely their responsibility and occurs according to their privacy policies. Please check with them regarding their privacy policies.
Sharing of Personal Information
With the exception of the providers of Notch SRL, we do not make your Personal Data available to third parties unless you have expressly consented to it, if we are legally obligated to, or if this is necessary to enforce our rights concerning a contractual relationship. This is our legitimate interest in the processing of data in the sense of Art. 6 Par. 1 lit. f GDPR.
Service providers. We may share your Personal Information with third party companies and individuals that provide services on our behalf or help us operate Notch (such as customer support, hosting, data processors, analytics, email delivery, marketing, identity verification, and database management services).
Perp DEX Protocols and operators. We may share your Personal Information (including your wallet ID and aggregated trading metrics) with operators and developers of the Perp DEX Protocols accessible through Notch — including, without limitation, the operators of Tail.trade and Hyperliquid — as necessary to enable the functionality of Notch and to administer builder codes, referrals, and similar on-chain mechanisms.
Web3 projects and collaborators. We may share your Personal Information with web3 projects and collaborators as necessary to provide Notch.
Professional advisors. We may disclose your Personal Information to professional advisors, such as lawyers and auditors, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.

If you conduct financial transactions by credit card or debit card through Notch, we may forward your credit/debit card information to the credit/debit card issuer and the credit/debit card acquirer. If you choose to use a credit/debit card, you may be asked to provide all the necessary information. The legal basis for passing on the data lies in the fulfillment of an agreement in the sense of Art. 6 Par. Lit. b GDPR.
Your Rights and Choices
Opt out of marketing communications. You may opt out of marketing-related emails by following the opt-out or unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the email. You may continue to receive service-related and other non-marketing emails.
Data protection rights. Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights, as provided under applicable law and subject to any limitations in such law:
Please note that, prior to any response to the exercise of such rights, we may require you to verify your identity. In addition, we may have valid legal reasons to refuse your request and will inform you if that is the case.

Please note that part of Notch incorporates blockchain technology. A blockchain is a shared and synchronized digital database that is stored on multiple nodes (computers that store a local version of the database). As, by design, data on a blockchain cannot be changed or deleted, your ability to exercise your data protection rights such as your right to erasure, or your rights to object or restrict processing with respect to on-chain Personal Data may be affected.
International Data Transfers
By using Notch, you understand and acknowledge that we may transfer your Personal Information to service providers or other third parties who are located in countries which may not provide the same protections as the data protection laws where you are based. This includes service providers of Notch SRL and e-commerce providers such as payment solution providers to assist us in the processing of your online payments. When we transfer your Personal Data to third parties abroad for the purposes of the data processing described in this Privacy Policy, unless we can rely on a derogation provided under data protection law, we will ensure that relevant safeguards are in place to afford adequate protection for your Personal Information and we will comply with applicable data protection laws, including by relying on (i) for transfers from the EEA, the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (Module 1, 2, 3, or 4 as applicable) or an adequacy decision; (ii) for transfers from the United Kingdom, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or a UK adequacy regulation; (iii) for transfers from Brazil, mechanisms approved under the LGPD by the Brazilian National Data Protection Authority (ANPD); (iv) for transfers from Switzerland, the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner-approved Standard Contractual Clauses; and (v) for transfers from other jurisdictions, contractual or other safeguards required under applicable law. For more information about how we transfer Personal Data internationally, or to obtain a copy of the relevant transfer mechanism, please contact us as set out in the "How to contact us" section below.
Automated Decision-Making and KOPS AI
Notch uses an automated pricing system referred to as KOPS AI to generate team strength ratings, prices, and other market signals (collectively, the "KOPS Data"). The KOPS AI system processes publicly available sports, market, and news data, not Personal Data, in order to produce the KOPS Data, and the KOPS Data is then displayed to all users of Notch on a non-personalized basis. Notch SRL does not use the KOPS AI system, or any other automated process, to produce decisions concerning you that have legal effects or similarly significantly affect you within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR or any analogous provision of applicable data protection law. To the extent that any processing carried out by us is regarded as automated decision-making producing such effects, you have the right to request human intervention, to express your point of view, and to contest the decision by contacting us at the address set out in the "How to Contact Us" section below.
No Sale of Personal Information
Notch SRL does not sell your Personal Information for monetary or other valuable consideration, and has not done so in the preceding 12 months. We also do not "share" your Personal Information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes within the meaning of the CCPA. We honor opt-out preference signals, including the Global Privacy Control (GPC), where they are made available to us through your browser or device.
Security and Data Breach Notification
We implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect Personal Information against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, damage, or disclosure. In the event of a personal data breach affecting your Personal Information, we will notify the competent supervisory authority and, where required by applicable law (including Article 33 and 34 GDPR, the LGPD, and applicable US state laws), affected individuals, in each case within the timeframes and in the manner required by such law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Notice to California Residents
The California Consumer Privacy Act or "CCPA" (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et seq.) affords consumers residing in California certain rights with respect to their personal information. If you are a California resident, this section applies to you.
California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits individual California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of certain categories of personal information to third parties for those third parties' direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please contact us using the information in the "How to Contact Us" section below. This request may be made no more than once per calendar year.
If you are a California resident, you have certain additional rights with respect to your personal information pursuant to the CCPA.
We are required to inform you of:
You have the right to request to know: (i) the categories of personal information we have collected about you in the last 12 months; (ii) the specific pieces of personal information we have about you; (iii) the categories of sources from which that personal information was collected; (iv) the categories of your personal information that we sold or disclosed in the last 12 months; (v) the categories of third parties to whom your personal information was sold or disclosed in the last 12 months; and (vi) the purpose for collecting and selling your personal information. These rights are subject to limitations as described in the CCPA. We may deny your request if we need to do so to comply with our legal rights or obligations.
We will not discriminate against any consumer for exercising their CCPA rights.
You may exercise these rights yourself or you may designate an authorized agent to make these requests on your behalf. To protect your information, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request, including by collecting additional information to verify your identity, such as government issued identification documents. We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify you are the individual about whom we collected personal information. We will only use the personal information provided in the verification process to verify your identity or authority to make a request and to track and document request responses, unless you initially provided the information for another purpose. When we verify your agent's request, we may verify your identity and request a signed document from your agent that authorizes your agent to make the request on your behalf. To protect your personal information, we reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on their behalf.
If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email in the "How to Contact Us" section below.

In addition, our content may be included in Third Party Resources that are not associated with us. We do not control all Third Party Resources, and we are not responsible for their actions.

Security Practices
We take precautions to protect your stored Personal Data against manipulation, partial or complete loss, and unauthorized access by third parties of Personal Information we maintain. Unfortunately, data transmission over the internet (including via blockchain) cannot be guaranteed as completely secure. Please note that any data transmission on the internet (including through blockchains) is generally not secure or may be accessed by third parties, and we accept no liability for data transmitted to us via the internet or through a blockchain.
