Glimpse International S.A.
Last updated: 14 September, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Glimpse International S.A. ("Glimpse", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, shares and protects personal information in connection with our website at https://www.glimpse.markets, our applications, and the Services described in our Terms of Service. Capitalised terms have the meaning given to them in the Terms of Service. We are the data controller of the personal information described in this notice.
When we say "you", we mean you or any individual whose personal information you provide to us. Before providing information about another individual, you must have a lawful basis or that individual's agreement, and you must ensure that they have been given this notice.
By "personal information" we mean any information from which an individual can be identified, directly or indirectly, by itself or in combination with other information. When we refer to using personal information, we mean collecting, recording, holding, storing, organizing, altering, retrieving, transferring, disclosing, combining, erasing, or destroying it.
We process personal information in accordance with Law No. 81 of 26 March 2019 on the Protection of Personal Data of the Republic of Panama and Executive Decree No. 285 of 28 May 2021, which together govern the processing of personal data in Panama and are supervised by the National Authority for Transparency and Access to Information ("ANTAI"). We process personal information lawfully and fairly, only for the purposes described in this notice, and only to the extent those purposes require, and we keep it accurate, secure, and confidential. Where we can set our practices higher than Panamanian law requires, we apply the standards of the EU General Data Protection Regulation as a global baseline for all Users.
We do not carry out identity verification. We do not collect, request or store identity documents, government identification numbers, photographs, or similar verification records.

- from public blockchain records and from our blockchain analytics provider, in relation to deposits made to, and withdrawals made from, your Account.
2. Information We Collect

We do not request, and do not knowingly collect, special category information such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic or biometric data, health information, or information about sexual orientation or sexual life. You should not provide such information through the Services or our support channels. We do not knowingly collect information about children, and the Services are not available to persons under 18.
3. The Purposes We Collect Your Information For
To perform our contract with you. To register and operate your Account; to execute, settle and record your trades and maintain your Account ledger; to process deposits and withdrawals; to provide customer support; and to send trade confirmations, settlement notices and other service communications.
For our legitimate interests. To secure the Services and prevent fraud, unauthorized access and abuse, including identifying Accounts under common ownership or control and enforcing trading and position limits; to apply geographic access controls, including IP geolocation and the detection of virtual private networks and proxies, so that we can block access from Excluded Countries and Restricted Territories; to screen deposits and withdrawals using blockchain analytics in order to detect and prevent illicit activity; to monitor, troubleshoot and improve the performance and reliability of the Services; and to manage our business, handle complaints and disputes, and exercise our legal rights.
To comply with a legal obligation. To comply with applicable laws, lawful orders and requests from competent authorities, and to maintain records we are required to keep.
With your consent. To send you marketing communications where you have opted in, and to set non-essential cookies. You may withdraw your consent at any time, and withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before it.
4. Disclosure of Information
We may disclose personal information to:
- service providers and other third parties that access personal information to perform functions on our behalf;
- our parent and affiliated companies, for operational, administrative and technical support;
- lawyers, auditors, security testers and other professional advisers, where necessary to obtain advice or to protect and manage our business interests; and
- local or overseas legal, regulatory, law enforcement, governmental and tax authorities, where required by applicable law or a lawful order.
The service providers we engage fall into the following categories: cloud infrastructure, hosting and application deployment; network security, content delivery and threat protection; transactional and service email delivery; product usage and performance analytics, which we configure with IP anonymization and with session replay disabled; IP geolocation, used for geographic access control; and blockchain analytics, used to screen deposits and withdrawals. If you would like to know which provider processes your personal information for a particular purpose, please write to us at privacy@glimpse.markets.
These recipients may process personal information only to the extent necessary to perform their respective functions and are subject to contractual confidentiality and data protection obligations. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with advertisers. In the event of insolvency, acquisition, merger, transfer of ownership or sale of assets, personal information may be disclosed to the acquirer or successor.
5. Transfer of Information to Other Jurisdictions
We are established in the Republic of Panama, and our service providers operate in several countries. Your personal information may therefore be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from jurisdictions that may not provide levels of data protection equivalent to those of your home jurisdiction.
Where we transfer personal information outside Panama, we do so only to recipients located in countries that provide a level of protection equivalent to or higher than that required under Panamanian law, or on the basis of contractual guarantees that oblige the recipient to apply equivalent protections and to respect your rights, or with your consent. You may request further information about these safeguards by contacting us.
6. How We Protect Your Information
We employ technical, organizational and administrative measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These include:
- TLS encryption for data in transit and AES-256 encryption for data at rest;
- role-based, least-privilege access controls restricting access to authorized personnel;
- multi-factor authentication, including hardware security keys, for access to sensitive systems;
- segregated system architecture and immutable audit logs;
- web application firewalls, distributed denial-of-service protection and rate limiting;
- scoped and revocable API keys, secrets management and periodic key rotation;
- regular vulnerability scanning and annual third-party penetration testing; and
- encrypted backups, vendor security reviews, and privacy and security training for our personnel.
We also limit the information we hold. Because we do not carry out identity verification, we do not hold identity documents or government identification numbers.
We maintain an incident response framework covering monitoring, containment, investigation, remediation, and post-incident review. Where a personal data breach is likely to result in a risk to your rights, we will notify you without undue delay by email or in-platform notification, and we will notify ANTAI and any other competent supervisory authority within the period required by applicable law. You may report a suspected security issue, phishing attempt or unauthorized access to your Account at privacy@glimpse.markets.
Our security measures are reviewed and updated regularly. No system can be guaranteed to be secure, and while we take all reasonable steps to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Retention of Information
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to satisfy the purposes described in this notice. This may include a period after your Account is closed, in order to meet legal, regulatory, accounting, reporting or dispute-resolution requirements. In deciding the appropriate retention period we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and whether those purposes can be achieved by other means.
Our standard periods are as follows:
- Account and transaction records are retained for the life of the Account and for five years following its closure.
- Support correspondence is retained for as long as necessary to resolve the matter and to maintain dispute and quality records.
- Security and access logs are retained for up to 90 days.
- Technical and analytics data is retained for up to 12 months.
- Marketing contact information is retained until you withdraw your consent, after which it is deleted.
Information recorded on the Bitcoin blockchain is public and permanent. It is outside our control and cannot be deleted by us.
8. Your Rights
You have the following rights in relation to your personal information:
- Access. To obtain confirmation of whether we process your personal information and to receive a copy of it, together with details of its use and disclosure.
- Rectification. To have inaccurate or incomplete information corrected or completed.
- Erasure. To have your personal information erased in certain circumstances. This right is not absolute and may be limited by legal requirements or overriding legitimate interests.
- Restriction. To request that we limit our use of your personal information in certain circumstances, while continuing to store it.
- Portability. To receive certain personal information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to have it transmitted to another controller.
- Objection. To object to processing based on our legitimate interests, and to object at any time to direct marketing.
- Automated decisions. To request human review of any automated decision that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us in writing at privacy@glimpse.markets. We may ask you to verify control of the email address registered to your Account. We will respond within the period required by applicable law, and in any event no later than one month from receipt. Where a request is complex or where we receive a high volume of requests, we may extend that period to the extent applicable law allows, and we will tell you and explain why.
We do not charge a fee for exercising these rights. Where a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because it is repetitive, we may charge a reasonable fee based on our administrative costs or decline to act, and we will explain our decision. We may also need to retain personal information where applicable law requires it. You may lodge a complaint with ANTAI or with the data protection authority in your country of residence.
10. Changes to This Notice
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our data processing practices or in legal requirements. Where the changes are significant, we will notify you by email and through the Website, and we will publish the updated notice with a revised date. Prior versions remain available on the Site.
