How We Protect and Store Personal Information

We take the security of our information seriously. We use administrative, technical, and physical security designed to safeguard personal information in our possession, and we maintain internal policies and procedures to address our data security. However, no security measure or modality of data transmission over the internet is 100% secure. Although we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of the information that we collect and store.

We retain data as required or permitted by law. For example, as a regulated financial institution, we may retain identification for 5 years or more after an account has been closed or become dormant.

How We Share Personal Information

We may disclose the information we gather with our affiliates and third parties. For example, we may share information in the following ways:

• Other GX BANK UAB entities, including to help detect and prevent potentially illegal acts and violations of our policies, and to guide decisions about our products, services and communications;

Transfer of EU data may be subject to additional legal protections we have put in place. For more information, please see the "How we share personal data with third parties and transfers outside the EEA" section of our EU Privacy Notice.

Your Choices

The Site recognizes the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signal. If you are using a browser setting or plug-in that sends an opt-out preference signal to each website you visit, we will treat that as a valid request to opt out. To download and use a browser supporting the GPC browser signal, click here: https://globalprivacycontrol.org/orgs . If you choose to use the GPC signal, you will need to turn it on for each supported browser or browser extension you use.

As of the last updated date of this Notice, there is no commonly accepted response for Do Not Track signals initiated by browsers. Therefore, we do not respond to such signals or to other mechanisms that provide the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personally identifiable information regarding your online activities over time and across third-party web sites or online services.

If you do not wish to receive marketing communications from us, you can click the “unsubscribe” link usually found at the bottom of the e-mail, or you can send an email to marketing@GX BANK UAB.com. However, you may still receive other communications from us as permitted or required by law.

Notice to Residence

The Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CCPA”), requires that we provide residents with a privacy policy that contains a comprehensive description of our online and offline practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, sale, sharing, and retention of personal information and the rights of residents regarding their personal information. This section of the Privacy Policy is intended solely for, and is applicable only as to, residents.

If you are a resident, the following provisions apply to our processing of personal information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household subject to the CCPA. Personal information does not include publicly available, deidentified or aggregated information or lawfully obtained, truthful information that is a matter of public concern. For purposes of this Notice to Residents section, we will refer to this information as “Personal Information.”

The CCPA’s privacy rights described below do not apply to Personal Information that we collect, process, sell, or disclose subject to the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and its implementing regulations. Because we are subject to those laws and regulations, much of the Personal Information that we collect is exempt from the CCPA.

For residents, the provisions of this prevail over any conflicting provisions in our GX BANK UAB Privacy Notice.

Notice at Collection Personal Information

We currently collect and, in the 12 months prior to the Last Updated Data of this Privacy Policy, have collected the following categories of Personal Information:

• Identifiers (real name, alias, postal address, unique personal identifier, online identifier, Internet Protocol address, email address, account name, social security number, driver’s license number, passport number, or other similar identifiers)
• Information under the Customer Records Statute (Information that identifies, relates to, describes, or is capable of being associated with, a particular individual, including, but not limited to, his or her name, social security number, address, telephone number, passport number, driver’s license or state identification card number, bank account number, credit card number, debit card number, or any other financial information)
• Commercial Information (Records of products or services purchased, obtained, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies on our site)

• Inferences drawn from other personal information (Inferences drawn from any of the information identified in this subdivision to create a profile about a consumer reflecting the consumer’s preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, and aptitudes)

For each of these categories, we obtain Personal Information from a variety of sources. These sources include: yourself, with respect to both online and offline interactions you may have with us or our service providers; other entities with whom you transact; others with whom you maintain relationships who may deal with us on your behalf; the devices you use to access our Sites, mobile applications, and online services; identity verification and fraud prevention services; marketing and analytics providers; public databases; social media platforms; and others consistent with this section.

Sale, Sharing, and Disclosure of Personal Information

The CCPA defines “sale” as the transfer of Personal Information for monetary or other valuable consideration. Although we do not “Sell” Personal Information as that term may be commonly interpreted, we engage in online activities that may constitute a sale or a share of Personal Information under law.

The following table identifies the categories of Personal Information that we sold or shared to third parties in the 12 months preceding the Last Updated Date of this Privacy Policy and, for each category, the categories of third parties to whom we sold or shared Personal Information:

Category of Personal Information	Categories of Third Parties
Unique personal identifiers (device identifier, cookies, beacons, pixel tags, mobile ad identifiers, or other similar technology)	Advertising networks; data analytics providers

We sold or shared Personal Information to third parties for the following business or commercial purposes:

• Auditing related to counting ad impressions to unique visitors, verifying positioning and quality of ad impressions, and auditing compliance with this specification and other standards
• Advancing our commercial or economic interests

We also may disclose Personal Information with recipients such as other GX BANK UAB entities; service providers; marketing and advertising providers; law enforcement, government officials, or other third parties pursuant to a subpoena, court order, or other applicable legal process or requirement; and merchants in cases of suspected fraud or in connection with an ongoing investigation. We disclose this information for the business purposes noted above.

We do not knowingly collect or sell or share the Personal Information of consumers under 16 years of age. We do not use sensitive Personal Information for purposes other than those allowed by the CCPA and its regulations.
