Welcome to our Platform. If you continue to browse and use this Platform, you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by these terms and conditions (“Terms of Use and Sale”), which together with our privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) govern the Company's relationship with you. This Privacy Policy is in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
In order to achieve our mission of providing The IG Group community with our websites and services, we collect certain personal information from users of The IG Group Websites (hereinafter “Users” or “you”) for the purposes specifically described and under the conditions laid down in this Privacy Policy.
Providing personal information is optional; however, Users opting not to share such information may not be allowed access to certain features of The IG Group Website. Users are responsible for filling in correct and truthful information, and are thus responsible for any actual or potential economic or legal lawsuit against The IG Group, should this occur as a consequence of their wrongdoing or mismanagement of their profile. User accounts are for personal use and may not be used by, assigned, or otherwise transferred to any other person or entity. Users are responsible for the security of their password and will be solely liable for any use or unauthorized use of said password.

This Privacy Policy provides details about the information we collect about you when you use our websites and services, or otherwise interact with us (for example, by attending our events), unless a different specific policy is displayed.
To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (e.g. SSL) over HTTPS.
In order to present our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries such as. B. Google Web fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) Google web fonts are transferred to your browser's cache to avoid multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Web Fonts or prevents access, the content is displayed in a standard font.
Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible - but currently also unclear whether and, if so, for what purposes - that operators of such libraries collect data.
