Nonetheless, we seek to protect your personal information in line with the principles set out in this Policy.

Data Retention

OBSERVE: We cannot keep personal data indefinitely without justification.

EXPAND: Retention periods must reflect legal obligations (e.g., KYC/AML) and business needs, then data should be anonymised or deleted.

REFLECT: We provide indicative timeframes and criteria.

  • General principle: We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Policy, including to meet legal, accounting and reporting requirements.

Indicative retention periods

  • Account and identification data: For the duration of your active account and typically for up to 5 - 7 years after account closure, depending on applicable KYC/AML and record-keeping laws.

  • Technical logs and security data: For 6 - 24 months, unless a longer period is necessary for security, fraud investigations or legal proceedings.

Deletion and anonymisation

  • When data is no longer required, we will:
    • securely delete or destroy it; or
    • irreversibly anonymise it so it is no longer personal data.
  • We may retain anonymised or aggregated data indefinitely for statistical, analytical or business planning purposes.
  • Where you request deletion, we will comply to the extent permitted by law and our legitimate interests (e.g., retaining certain records for legal obligations or to defend claims).

Your Rights

OBSERVE: Users expect rights similar to those under modern data protection frameworks (e.g., GDPR-style and comparable Latin American regimes).

EXPAND: Although Mr Pacho is directed at Australian users of an offshore service, we voluntarily align our approach with key principles reflected in international standards, including EU GDPR and Mexican privacy regulations such as the Federal Law on Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties, where relevant.

REFLECT: We summarise your rights, how to exercise them, and our response timelines.

Summary of rights

  • Right of access: You can request confirmation whether we process your personal data and obtain a copy, together with information about how it is used.
  • Right to rectification: You can request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): You can ask us to delete your personal data where:
    • it is no longer necessary for the purposes collected;
    • you withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis; or
    • processing is unlawful or no longer justified.
  • Right to restriction of processing: You can request that we restrict processing in certain cases (e.g., while we verify accuracy or handle an objection).
  • Right to object: You may object to:
    • processing based on our legitimate interests, on grounds relating to your particular situation; and
    • processing for direct marketing, at any time (after which we will stop marketing to you).

  • Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent (e.g., marketing), you can withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
  • Rights in relation to automated decision-making: Where we use automated means that produce legal or similarly significant effects (e.g., fraud checks), you may request human review and express your point of view.

    • your full name;
    • registered email/username (if applicable);

  4. Limitations: We may refuse or partially fulfil a request where:
    • we cannot verify your identity;
    • the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive; or

Nothing in this section is intended to limit any mandatory rights you may have under the laws of your jurisdiction. Our alignment with GDPR and Mexican privacy principles is voluntary and for transparency, particularly for users familiar with these frameworks.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

  • Access minimisation: "Need to know" principle for access to personal data, combined with logging and monitoring of administrative activities.

Audits and incident response
