Legal basis for processing
Under GDPR and the UK Data Protection Act, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Contract, processing necessary to provide the platform to you under these Terms.
- Legal obligation, KYC / KYB, sanctions screening, tax reporting, record retention and other regulatory duties.

Under Swiss FADP and Singapore PDPA we rely on equivalent bases as implemented in those regimes.

Where we do so, transfers are protected by one of the following mechanisms: (a) an adequacy finding by the source regulator, (b) Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) incorporated into our vendor agreements or (c) another lawful transfer mechanism available under the applicable regime. A list of transfer destinations is available on request to dpo@treviya.com.

Treviya applies technical and organisational measures to protect personal data from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. Measures include AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, HKDF-SHA256 key derivation, mandatory two-factor authentication for accounts, step-up authentication on sensitive actions, role-based access control, continuous monitoring and regular penetration testing.

Your rights
Subject to the data-protection framework applicable to you, you may exercise the following rights:
- Access, request a copy of your personal data.
- Rectification, correct inaccurate personal data.
- Erasure, delete your personal data, subject to statutory retention obligations.
- Restriction, limit processing in specific circumstances.
- Portability, receive your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Objection, object to processing based on legitimate interests.

To exercise any of these rights, use the account privacy panel in the member dashboard or email dpo@treviya.com. We respond within 30 calendar days (shorter where your regime requires).
Children
The platform is not intended for children. Account opening requires verified age of at least 18 (or the relevant age of majority in the account holder's jurisdiction). Where we become aware that a child's data has been submitted, we delete it promptly.
Automated decision-making
Sanctions screening, risk scoring and anomaly detection involve automated processing. Automated sanctions hits block account activation pending human review. Risk scores inform monitoring thresholds but do not solely determine account status.
You have the right to request human review of automated decisions that affect you. Requests can be made to dpo@treviya.com.
Changes to this Policy
We review this Policy at least annually. Material changes are announced to account holders at least 30 days before they take effect. Prior versions are retained and available on request to dpo@treviya.com.
