3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data for:

• Providing trading platform functionality
• Maintaining accurate portfolio and transaction records
• Calculating market prices and liquidity
• Fraud prevention and security monitoring
• Platform analytics and improvements
• Resolving disputes and maintaining system integrity
• Operating and resolving prediction markets, which may involve automated decision-making as detailed below.

3.1 Automated Decision-Making (Prediction Markets)

Our prediction markets are entirely AI-automated systems that determine outcomes of prediction questions without human intervention. The AI processes publicly available information and platform data to settle expired prediction questions automatically.

No Guarantee of Accuracy: AI decisions are not guaranteed to be correct or accurate. The automated system may make errors in interpreting data or determining outcomes.

Significance and Envisaged Consequences: These automated decisions directly determine whether your prediction bets are won or lost and the corresponding virtual payouts. All outcomes are final once processed.

Limitation of Liability: We are not responsible for any losses, incorrect outcomes, or disputes arising from automated AI decisions in prediction markets. By participating, you acknowledge and accept the risks of AI-automated resolution systems.
