This policy establishes guidelines for the protection and privacy of personal data processed by Nexu Transaction Technologies,
ensuring compliance with applicable regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
This policy is intended for controllers who use Nexu’s services, as well as any interested party
wishing to understand the data protection practices adopted by the company.
Personal Data: Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
Processor: An entity that processes personal data on behalf of the controller, as defined by the GDPR.
Controller: A natural or legal person responsible for collecting and making decisions regarding the processing of personal data.
Nexu acts exclusively as a data processor, providing and maintaining a SaaS platform.
Nexu has no authority to collect, modify, delete, or make decisions regarding the personal data
stored in the system — these responsibilities rest with the controller.
Nexu is committed to ensuring that data remains protected, accessible only for operational support
purposes, and in compliance with applicable data protection regulations.
To ensure the security and integrity of data stored in the technological environment, Nexu implements
strict access control mechanisms, including:
Nexu professionals are not authorized to modify, extract, copy, or delete any personal data stored
in its systems, unless a formal and documented request is submitted by the controller.
When operational support requires access to data, Nexu will follow these steps:
Nexu adopts rigorous measures to ensure that information remains protected against unauthorized access and data breaches:

Operational records, such as audit logs, may be retained for the minimum period required by applicable law.
Nexu does not use sub-processors for the processing of personal data stored on the platform.
All processing is carried out internally by authorized professionals subject to the obligations described in this policy.
If personal data is stored or processed outside Canada or the European Union, Nexu will implement
appropriate safeguards to ensure a level of protection equivalent to that required by the GDPR, including:
Nexu, acting as a data processor, does not maintain a direct relationship with data subjects.
However, it is committed to supporting the controller in fulfilling data subject requests, including:
Requests will be fulfilled within the contractually established deadlines, observing the limits of
30 days under the GDPR.
Nexu has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO), responsible for acting as a communication channel
between the company, controllers, and data protection authorities, as well as for providing internal
guidance on compliance with applicable privacy regulations.
For questions, requests, or communications related to personal data protection, the DPO may be contacted at:
