&nbsp;5. Purpose and legal basis for using personal data&nbsp;

All data processing is performed in accordance with the GDPR. Your personal data is processed based on at least one of the legal bases listed below.

Generally, 1BITUP does not process special categories of Clients&rsquo; personal data. This includes data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs or trade union membership, as well as genetic and biometric.

With this verification method, in addition to the actual verification data (e.g. screenshots of ID documents and identification data from these, residence, status of politically exposed persons, video data, etc.), biometric data (e.g. personal data resulting from specific technical processing in connection with the physical, physiological or behavioural characteristics of a person and enabling the unique identification of a person, e.g. facial images, dactyloscopic data) is also collected. Such processing of biometric data takes place exclusively on the basis of your express consent, which you may revoke at any time. The biometric data will be processed solely by our processor SumSub for the purpose of verification and will be erased completely within 30 days after performing the identification.

1BITUP only receives the positive or negative verification result with other verification data and does not process biometric data from Clients itself at any time.
