This includes your preferences in receiving marketing from us and our third parties and your communication preferences. You have full control over these settings and can opt-out at any time.
1.5. Aggregated Data
We may also collect, use, and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity.

Technical and usage data helps us understand how our services are used, allowing us to continuously improve functionality, troubleshoot issues, and personalize your experience. This includes tailoring content, insights, and features to your trading preferences and activity, without compromising your privacy.
2.3. Security and Fraud Prevention
Protecting our platform and users is paramount. We utilize collected data for security monitoring, fraud detection, and to ensure the integrity of our systems. This includes analyzing login patterns and identifying suspicious activities to safeguard your account and data.
2.4. Compliance with Legal and Regulatory Obligations
As a responsible financial technology provider, Sonic Labs must comply with applicable laws and regulations, including those related to anti-money laundering (AML), know your customer (KYC) requirements, and data protection. Your data may be processed to meet these legal duties.
2.5. Marketing and Communication
With your explicit consent, we may use your contact and marketing data to send you updates about new features, exclusive insights, and market reports. You can manage your communication preferences or opt-out at any time through your account settings or the unsubscribe link in our emails.
3. Data Security
At Sonic Labs, we understand the critical importance of safeguarding your data in the complex world of crypto finance. We have implemented robust technical and organizational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed.
3.1. Encryption and Access Controls
All data transmitted to and from our platform is protected using industry-standard TLS encryption. Your personal data is stored on secure servers with stringent access controls, limited to authorized personnel who require it for specific duties. Multi-factor authentication is enforced for internal access to sensitive systems.
3.2. Regular Audits and Vulnerability Assessments
We conduct regular security audits and penetration tests performed by independent third-party experts to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities. Our systems are continuously monitored for unusual activity, allowing for rapid response to any security incidents.
3.3. Employee Training and Data Minimization
Our team receives continuous training on data protection best practices and protocols. We adhere to the principle of data minimization, collecting and retaining only the data strictly necessary for our service provision and legal obligations.
3.4. Data Breach Procedures
In the unlikely event of a data breach, we have established comprehensive procedures for rapid detection, containment, assessment, and notification to affected parties and relevant authorities, in compliance with applicable regulations.
4. Your Legal Rights
Under data protection laws, you have specific rights regarding your personal data. We are committed to facilitating the exercise of these rights transparently and efficiently, in compliance with regulations such as GDPR and CCPA.
4.1. Right to Access
You have the right to request access to your personal data that we hold and to receive a copy of that information. This enables you to verify its accuracy and lawfulness of processing.

If you find that any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request its correction or completion.
4.3. Right to Erasure (Right to Be Forgotten)
In certain circumstances, you have the right to request the deletion or removal of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing. Please note this right is subject to legal exceptions and retention obligations.
4.4. Right to Object to Processing
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground.
4.5. Right to Data Portability
You have the right to request that we transfer your personal data to another party or directly to you, in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, where technically feasible.
4.6. Right to Withdraw Consent
