"This Privacy Policy explains what Personal Information (as defined below) we collect, why we collect it, how we use and disclose it... [Gemini may share data with] government or law enforcement agencies upon request.— Excerpt from Gemini's Gemini Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Government and law enforcement disclosure obligations for a financial institution operating a digital asset exchange are grounded in the Bank Secrecy Act, FinCEN regulations (including SAR filing obligations), OFAC sanctions compliance, and potentially SEC or CFTC requests depending on asset classification. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) may also apply to certain data request types. These disclosures are legally compelled rather than discretionary in many circumstances. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. While mandated legal disclosures are standard for financial institutions, the policy does not specify whether Gemini provides advance notice to users of legal process where permitted by law, or whether it maintains a transparency report. The absence of a transparency commitment is worth noting given the sensitivity of cryptocurrency transaction data. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: US federal law (BSA, FinCEN, OFAC) governs mandatory disclosure obligations for US users. Non-US users, including EEA and UK users, are subject to different legal frameworks governing government access to their data, which Gemini's separate regional notices should address. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Institutional clients should be aware that their transaction and account data is subject to the same government access provisions as retail users. Legal teams advising institutional clients should factor regulatory access risk into their use of the platform. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should assess whether Gemini's privacy notice adequately discloses the categories of government requests it may receive and whether any notice-to-user provisions apply before or after disclosure where legally permitted. A transparency report or law enforcement request policy would strengthen disclosure practices.
