Legal
Deep Blue recognizes the importance of cooperating with law enforcement agencies while protecting the privacy and rights of our users. This policy outlines how we handle legal and compliance requests worldwide.
Types of Information Requests
When contacted by law enforcement, we typically receive requests for two types of data:
- Information about our customers' identities
- Information about our customers' activities using Deep Blue Tokens
Additionally, as part of their investigations, law enforcement agencies may request that certain addresses be frozen.
Our Approach to Information Requests
- Legal Process Requirement: All information requests must be accompanied by appropriate legal process. This can vary by jurisdiction and may include production orders, search warrants, subpoenas, or requests for voluntary disclosure of data.
- Review Process: Deep Blue thoroughly reviews each order and request for voluntary disclosure to ensure:
- It has a valid legal basis
- Our response is narrowly tailored to provide only the data to which law enforcement is legally entitled
- Freezing Addresses: Requests to freeze Deep Blue Token addresses should also be accompanied by appropriate legal process.
- Discretionary Disclosures: Deep Blue reserves the right to make disclosures to authorities in order to protect itself, its associates, and its customers.
Our Commitment
We are committed to:
- Protecting user privacy to the fullest extent possible under the law
- Providing only the information we are legally obligated to share
- Notifying users of requests for their information when permitted by law
- Regularly publishing transparency reports on the number and types of requests received
