BREW IQ — PRIVACY POLICY

LAST UPDATED: 4TH MARCH 2026

This Privacy Policy sets out how LOST IN TOWN BREWERY LTD collects and processes personal data in connection with the BREW IQ Platform. It explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, the lawful bases for processing, how long we retain it, and your rights under applicable data protection law (including UK GDPR and, where applicable, EU GDPR).

This Privacy Policy is provided in a layered format so that you can navigate to the specific sections set out below.

Please select the version that applies to you:

1. IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND WHO WE ARE

This Privacy Policy explains how LOST IN TOWN BREWERY LTD ("Company", "we", "us", "our") collects and uses your personal data when you access or use the BREW IQ mobile application, related web interfaces, and associated services (together, the "Platform").

We collect and process personal data when you:

Age Restrictions

The Platform is available to users aged 18 years and over. Individuals under the age of 18 may access the Platform and participate in free competitions only.

Users under 18 are strictly prohibited from paying entry fees, purchasing memberships, or entering any paid competitions. Where required, we may implement age verification measures to ensure compliance with applicable laws.

If we become aware that a user has misrepresented their age in order to access paid features, we reserve the right to suspend the account and take appropriate action, including deletion of personal data where legally required.

Controller

LOST IN TOWN BREWERY LTD (company number 15162932), registered in England and Wales with its registered office at 92 York Street, London, England, W1H 1QX, is the data controller responsible for your personal data for the purposes of UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, and where applicable, EU GDPR.

LOST IN TOWN BREWERY LTD acts as controller in respect of personal data processed through the BREW IQ Platform, including but not limited to:

Where such providers process personal data on our behalf, they act as data processors under written agreements compliant with Article 28 UK GDPR. Where a third party processes personal data for its own regulatory or compliance purposes (for example, where an Exchange Partner carries out identity verification, anti-money laundering checks, or financial compliance screening), that third party acts as an independent data controller and will provide its own privacy notice governing that processing.

Blockchain Processing

Where personal data is embedded in or associated with blockchain transactions, such processing may involve decentralised network participants outside our direct control. In such cases, LOST IN TOWN BREWERY LTD determines the purposes and means of the initial processing but does not control the operation of independent blockchain nodes. We design our systems to minimise the use of personal data on-chain wherever possible.

Data Protection Contact

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, our data practices, or wish to exercise your legal rights, please contact:

Email: info@lostintown.co.uk

We will respond to all legitimate requests in accordance with applicable data protection law.

2. THE TYPES OF PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT

Personal data means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified, either directly or indirectly. We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you through your use of the BREW IQ Platform. We have grouped this data as follows:

Blockchain Processing Note

Where User Payments are processed via blockchain infrastructure, certain transaction-related data (such as wallet addresses and transaction hashes) may be recorded on a decentralised ledger. While blockchain data is pseudonymous, it may constitute personal data where it can be linked to an identifiable individual. We design our systems to minimise personal data stored on-chain wherever possible.

Aggregated Data

We also collect, use, and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data for analytical and service improvement purposes. Aggregated data does not directly or indirectly identify you and therefore is not personal data under UK GDPR. For example, we may aggregate Usage Data to analyse trends in how users interact with competitions or specific Platform features in order to improve functionality and user experience.

3. HOW IS YOUR PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED?

We use different methods to collect data from and about you including through:

Where identity verification is required (for example, for regulatory compliance relating to digital asset transactions), you may provide additional verification data either directly to us or to a regulated Exchange Partner.

Automated Technologies and Platform Interactions

As you interact with the BREW IQ Platform, we automatically collect certain Technical and Usage Data, including:

We collect this data using cookies (where applicable), software development kits (SDKs), server logs, device identifiers, analytics tools and similar technologies. Where blockchain-based payments are made, transaction identifiers and wallet addresses may be recorded on a decentralised ledger.

Blockchain Infrastructure

Where User Payments are processed via smart contracts deployed on blockchain networks, transaction data (including wallet addresses and transaction hashes) is generated and recorded automatically by the relevant blockchain protocol. We do not control independent blockchain nodes but design our systems to minimise personal data stored on-chain.

Third Parties and Service Providers

We may receive personal data about you from third parties including:

4. HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

These technologies are necessary for the operation of the Platform and do not require your consent under UK law. We do not use analytics, tracking, advertising, or behavioural marketing cookies.

5. DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We may share your personal data where necessary and in accordance with applicable data protection law for the purposes set out in the section above. We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients:

Service Providers (Data Processors)

Third-party providers who process personal data on our behalf in connection with operating and supporting the BREW IQ Platform, including:

These third parties act as our data processors and are contractually required to process personal data only on our documented instructions and in accordance with applicable data protection law.

Professional Advisers

Lawyers, accountants, auditors, insurers and other professional advisers who provide professional services to us.

Regulators and Authorities

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), law enforcement bodies, courts, regulators or other authorities where disclosure is required by law or necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Corporate Transaction Parties

Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, assign or merge parts of our business or our assets.

6. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Some of our third-party service providers, infrastructure providers and digital asset service partners may be located outside the United Kingdom. In addition, where blockchain infrastructure is used, transaction data may be recorded on decentralised networks that operate globally. This means your personal data may be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from countries outside the UK.

Where we transfer personal data outside the UK to countries that do not benefit from UK adequacy regulations, we ensure that a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by implementing appropriate safeguards, which may include:

Where we transfer personal data from the EEA to a country outside the EEA that is not subject to an adequacy decision of the European Commission, we implement appropriate safeguards including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), the UK IDTA where applicable, or the UK Addendum to the SCCs.

You may request further information about the specific safeguards used for international transfers by contacting us at info@lostintown.co.uk.

Blockchain-Specific Note

Where User Payments are processed via blockchain infrastructure, transaction-related data (such as wallet addresses and transaction identifiers) may be recorded on decentralised networks that are not limited to a single geographic jurisdiction. We do not control the geographic location of independent blockchain nodes, and once recorded, blockchain data may be publicly accessible and immutable. We design our systems to minimise personal data stored on-chain wherever possible.

7. DATA SECURITY

We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data in accordance with Article 32 UK GDPR. Our security measures include, where appropriate:

Access to personal data is restricted to employees, contractors, service providers and advisers who have a legitimate business need to access it. We have procedures in place to detect, investigate and respond to suspected personal data breaches. Where a breach is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and affected individuals where required by law.

8. DATA RETENTION

We will retain your personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it. In general:

We may retain personal data for longer where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; in response to regulatory requests; or where we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation.

Where blockchain infrastructure is used, certain transaction-related records may be recorded on decentralised networks. Due to the immutable nature of blockchain technology, such records cannot be altered or deleted. However, we design our systems to minimise personal data stored on-chain and, where possible, personal data is stored off-chain and can be deleted or anonymised.

9. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

Under applicable data protection law (including UK GDPR and, where applicable, EU GDPR), you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. These rights are not absolute and may be subject to certain conditions or exemptions. You have the right to:

No fee is usually required to exercise your rights. However, we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act if a request is manifestly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. We may request specific information from you to confirm your identity before responding to your request. We aim to respond to all valid requests within one month.
