ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Post-Schrems II, the legal adequacy of SCCs for EU-to-US data transfers is subject to ongoing regulatory scrutiny, and users in the EU/UK have the right to challenge whether appropriate safeguards are actually in place for their data transfers.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

The policy states that Coinbase collects government-issued identification documents, financial account details, transaction history, biometric data, and device and geolocation information from users of its platform. This information may be shared with third-party identity verification providers, blockchain analytics companies, advertising and analytics partners, and disclosed to law enforcement or regulators upon legally permissible request, including in jurisdictions where Coinbase determines disclosure is required without user notice. You can submit a data access, deletion, or opt-out request through Coinbase's privacy request page at https://www.coinbase.com/legal/privacy.
