9. International Data Transfers
Given the global nature of blockchain technology and the decentralized nature of Muamma's services, your personal information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.
If you're located outside Turkey and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including personal information, to Turkey and process it there. Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.
Muamma Technologies Inc. will take all the steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your personal information will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data and other personal information.
10. Participation in Decentralized Networks
It's important to understand that by participating in the Muamma ecosystem, particularly with Muamma NFTs (ERC-721) and Muamma Tokens (ERC-20), your transactions are perpetually recorded on the blockchain, a public ledger. Given the blockchain's immutable nature, removal or deletion of such data is not possible, emphasizing the need for careful consideration before engaging in blockchain-based transactions. This inherent transparency and immutability are crucial for ensuring trust and security within the ecosystem but also mean that certain information, such as wallet addresses and transaction histories, become permanently public.
11. Your Rights Over Personal Information
In certain jurisdictions, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. These may include the right to:
Request access to your personal data.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you.
Request erasure of your personal data.
Object to processing of your personal data.
Request restriction of processing your personal data.
Request transfer of your personal data.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data.
