Hob Finance (“Hob”, “we”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect when you use our website and OTC desk services, how we use it, and your rights. By using our services, you acknowledge this policy.
We collect information necessary to process OTC orders, including: phone number; name (when provided); email (optional); order details (amount, network, side, rates); Whish payment references; wallet addresses; on-chain transaction hashes; WhatsApp verification events; IP and device data from server logs; and communications with our desk.
We use your data to: provide quotes and execute buy/sell orders; verify phone ownership via WhatsApp; send payment and settlement instructions; track order status; prevent fraud and abuse; maintain audit and compliance records; improve our services; and respond to support requests.
We process your data to perform our contract with you (processing your order), to comply with legal obligations (record-keeping, fraud prevention, lawful requests), and for our legitimate interests in operating a secure OTC desk, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.
We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with: payment and messaging providers (e.g. Whish, WhatsApp/Meta) as needed to deliver services; infrastructure providers hosting our systems; and authorities when required by law or to protect rights and safety. All sharing is limited to what is necessary.
Order records, payment references, and verification logs are retained for as long as needed to complete orders, resolve disputes, meet legal and regulatory requirements, and maintain audit trails. You may request deletion where we have no overriding legal obligation to retain data.
We use technical and organisational measures appropriate to an OTC desk handling financial transactions, including access controls, encrypted connections, and staff authentication. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; you are responsible for safeguarding access to your phone and wallets.
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, or to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us on WhatsApp or via the contact details on our website. We will respond within a reasonable time.
Our website may use essential cookies and local storage for session state (e.g. order progress). We minimise third-party tracking. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Your data may be processed on servers or through providers located outside your country. Where required, we ensure appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
Our services are not directed at anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date below reflects the latest version. For privacy questions, contact us via WhatsApp using the desk number on our website.
