Personal Information Collected from Third Parties:
Tax Information: if you share your CoinTracker account with third party tax advisors, and those tax advisors cannot identify you based on the Identification Information we collect when you create your account, we may collect additional information about you from your advisors, such as the last four digits of your social security number, to permit those advisors to identify your account. Please note, however, that we do not collect or store your full social security number.
Third-party login information: when you link, connect, or log in to the Service with a third-party service, such as Google, you direct such third parties to send us information associated with your account on that service, as controlled by that service or as authorized by you via your privacy settings at that service.

Personal Information We Process on Behalf of Our Partners: we occasionally integrate with certain third-party partners (such as tax preparation software providers) and provide the Service to their users. If we do and the third party partner owns the user relationship, we will process the users’ personal information as a data processor pursuant to our agreements with our partners rather than this Privacy Policy. If you are such a user and have questions about the processing of your information or want to exercise one of your privacy rights, please contact the partner that you interact with directly.

CoinTracker is headquartered in the US. The US may have data protection laws less stringent than or otherwise different from the laws in the EU. Transfers of your personal information to CoinTracker in the US are necessary to perform the agreement we have entered into, or are about to enter into, with you.
Before July 16, 2020, we relied on our EU-U.S. Privacy Shield certification to transfer personal information from the EU to the U.S. On July 16, 2020, the European Court of Justice ruled that the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield is no longer available for these transfers. Before September 8, 2020, we relied on our Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield certification to transfer personal information from Switzerland to the US but on September 8, 2020 the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner determined that the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield is no longer available for these transfers. We continue to comply with the Privacy Shield Principles described in the Privacy Shield section below as required by the US Department of Commerce.
Privacy Shield
CoinTracker complies with the EU-U.S. and Swiss–U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information transferred from the EU to the U.S.
CoinTracker is subject to oversight by the US Federal Trade Commission. JAMS is the US-based independent organization responsible for reviewing and resolving complaints about our Privacy Shield compliance — free of charge to you. Should you have any complaints, please contact us. If you are not satisfied with our response, please contact JAMS. In the event your concern still is not addressed by JAMS, you may be entitled to binding arbitration under Privacy Shield and its principles.
Within the scope of our authorization to do so, and in accordance with our commitments under the Privacy Shield, CoinTracker will provide individuals access to personal information about them. CoinTracker will also take reasonable steps to enable individuals to correct, amend, or delete personal information that is demonstrated to be inaccurate.
CoinTracker is responsible for the processing of personal information it receives, under the Privacy Shield Framework, and subsequently transfers to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. CoinTracker complies with the Privacy Shield Principles for all onward transfers of personal information from the EU, including the onward transfer liability provisions.
Our Service is not directed to children who are under the age of 18. CoinTracker does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18. If you believe that a child under the age of 18 provided personal information to CoinTracker please contact us and we will delete that information.
The Service may contain links to other websites not operated or controlled by CoinTracker, including social media services (“Third Party Sites”). The information that you share with Third Party Sites will be governed by the specific privacy policies and terms of service of the Third Party Sites and not by this Privacy Policy. By providing these links we do not imply that we endorse or have reviewed these sites. Please contact the Third Party Sites directly for information on their privacy practices and policies.
We employ a number of technical, organizational, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, no security measures are 100% failsafe and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information. You use the Service at your own risk.
The Service and our business may change from time to time. As a result, we may change this Privacy Policy at any time. When we do we will post an updated version on this page unless another type of notice is required by applicable law. By continuing to use our Service or providing us with personal information after we have posted an updated Privacy Policy, or notified you by other means if applicable, you consent to the revised Privacy Policy and the practices described in it.
If you have any questions about our Privacy Policy or information practices, please feel free to contact us.
