Privacy Options and U.S. Privacy Choices

Section 1 — Scope

This page describes operational choices and supplements the Privacy Policy. Available rights depend on residence, use and statutory thresholds. XBN does not provide fewer rights than mandatory law requires.

Section 2 — Profile and visibility controls

Users may change available settings for public discovery, contact details, activity display, interests and profile fields. Mandatory Organization disclosures and Content lawfully shared by others may not always be fully hidden.

Section 3 — Feed, interests and notifications

Interests, followed persons, newsletters, topics and notification channels may be managed. Disabling personalized recommendations may result in chronological or general results. Security and contractual notices cannot be opted out of as marketing.

Section 4 — Cookie consent

The consent center allows optional categories to be accepted or rejected separately and prior consent withdrawn. Necessary technologies remain active. Withdrawal is prospective and deletes existing cookies where technically possible; browser deletion may also be needed.

Section 5 — Sale, sharing and targeted advertising

XBN does not sell data for money. If future processing qualifies as sale, sharing or targeted advertising, a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” or equivalent control will appear before activation. Legally recognized opt-out signals are honored. Such processing will not begin without this control.

Section 6 — Sensitive Data and automated decisions

Sensitive Data is used only for requested or legally permitted purposes. Where a right to limit, opt out or consent applies, it is provided before relevant use. The same applies to future automated decisions with significant effects.

Section 7 — Privacy requests and authorized agents

Access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, objection or appeal requests may be sent to info@x-bn.com. Authorized agents must prove authority and, where required, obtain direct confirmation from the consumer. Verification data is used only to process the request and prevent fraud.

Section 8 — Timing, denial and appeal

XBN acknowledges and responds within applicable statutory time and notifies lawful extensions. A denial states reasons and appeal method. Repetitive, manifestly unfounded or excessive requests may be denied or charged only as law permits.

Section 9 — Non-discrimination and accessibility

Exercising rights does not result in unlawful discrimination. Permitted loyalty programs or functionally necessary differences must be transparent and proportionate. Privacy controls are provided accessibly and assistance may be requested.

Section 10 — Contact and authorities

Legal, privacy, compliance and support requests must be sent to info@x-bn.com. Identity, authority and supporting evidence may be requested where necessary to process a request.

Independently of internal procedures, data subjects may contact competent privacy or consumer authorities.
