Fusion FX — Last updated: [DATE — PENDING LEGAL REVIEW]
1. Who We Are
This Privacy Policy explains how Fusion FX (UK) LTD (“Fusion FX”, “we”, “us”) collects and uses your personal data when you visit this website, register for an account or use our web trading platform.

Data protection contact: [DATA CONTROLLER CONTACT / DATA PROTECTION OFFICER]. You can also write to support@fusion-fx.net.
[PENDING LEGAL REVIEW] This policy is written to the standard of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). The law that actually applies depends on where the controller is established and where you live.
2. The Data We Collect
- Registration data: your name, email address, phone number, country of residence and password (stored only in hashed form).
- Identity and verification (KYC) data: date of birth, address, copies of identity documents and proof of address, and, where required, information about your employment, income and the source of your funds.
- Appropriateness data: your answers about your trading knowledge and experience.
- Financial and transaction data: deposits, withdrawals, payment method details (we do not store full card numbers), account balance and statements.
- Trading data: orders, positions, stop-loss and take-profit levels, price alerts, trade history, margin and equity.
- Communications: emails, support requests and complaints you send us.
- Device and usage data: IP address, browser type, device information, login times, pages visited and actions taken on the platform, collected through server logs and cookies.
Most of this data comes from you. Some comes from third parties, such as identity verification providers, payment processors and fraud-prevention or sanctions-screening databases.
3. Why We Use Your Data and Our Legal Bases
- To open and run your account and execute your trades — necessary to perform our contract with you.
- To verify your identity, prevent money laundering, fraud and terrorist financing, screen against sanctions lists, and keep records — necessary to comply with our legal obligations.
- To assess whether CFDs are appropriate for you — legal obligation.
- To secure the platform, investigate misuse and defend legal claims — our legitimate interests.
- To improve our website and platform — our legitimate interests, or your consent where cookies require it.
- To send you marketing — your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
We do not make decisions about you based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects, except where permitted by law (for example, automatic stop-out of positions under our Terms, which is part of our contract with you).
4. Who We Share Your Data With
We share personal data only where necessary, with:
- payment processors and banks that handle your deposits and withdrawals;
- identity verification, KYC and anti-fraud service providers;
- IT, hosting, email and customer-support providers acting on our instructions;

5. International Transfers
Some of our service providers may process data outside your country, including outside the European Economic Area. Where we transfer data to a country that does not provide an adequate level of protection, we use appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses. You can ask us for details of these safeguards. [TRANSFER DESTINATIONS AND SAFEGUARDS]

7. How We Protect Your Data
We use technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords, access controls and restricted access to identity documents.
