Enabling MEV Protection triggers a specific data-sharing authorization, meaning users' transaction data is disclosed to external third parties as a direct consequence of activating the feature.
The updated terms explicitly state that UK, EU, and EEA consumers retain statutory consumer protection rights that cannot be limited or excluded by the agreement, and that applicable local law prevails in the event of conflict with these terms.
