Hi everyone!
Please, very carefully read what I write! This concerns the developers of HOQU in the first place!
In view of the introduction of KYC and the collection of personal data, a certain number of very serious questions appear to the organizers and developers of HOQU.
The first thing you need to pay attention to is how the KYC form is organized. To fill in such forms, I should immediately see everything in the form included items, and not open in order only after the completion of the previous paragraph.
The next question is about KYC demands.
As I understand it, HOQU is registered in the UK, and in the UK there is no KYC legislation in relation to bounty hunters (only in relation to investors and only starting with a certain amount of investment).
The argument "we collect personal data just in case" is not at all an argument from a legal position".
The next question: Who will have access to my personal data and personal information of the other participants in your campaign (personal data of bounty hunters and investors). On this account, there are already specific legal arguments.
Namely:
Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic
Processing of Personal Data
Strasbourg, 28.I.1981
Article 8 – Additional safeguards for the data subject
Any person shall be enabled:
a) to establish the existence of an automated personal data file, its main purposes, as well
as the identity and habitual residence or principal place of business of the controller of
the file;
b) to obtain at reasonable intervals and without excessive delay or expense confirmation of
whether personal data relating to him are stored in the automated data file as well as
communication to him of such data in an intelligible form;
c) to obtain, as the case may be, rectification or erasure of such data if these have been
processed contrary to the provisions of domestic law giving effect to the basic principles
set out in Articles 5 and 6 of this Convention;
d) to have a remedy if a request for confirmation or, as the case may be, communication,
rectification or erasure as referred to in paragraphs b and c of this article is not complied
with.
Therefore, I ask the HOQU team to make a public and reasoned statement.
I will not conduct any personal correspondence by e-mail. Please, show publicity and professionalism in this matter
