Our websites may contain hyperlinks or "links" to other sites, and other sites may link to our sites.

Security Technology at MYFX Markets

MYFX Markets takes active measures to protect the information you submit to us. Our technology is designed to secure your data while it's being transmitted to us, preventing interception by any party other than MYFX Markets. We also employ additional safeguards, including firewalls, authentication systems (e.g., passwords and personal identification numbers), and access control mechanisms to prevent unauthorised access to systems and data. However, you should be aware that using services provided through our website involves transmitting data over the internet, which is subject to inherent risks. While we take reasonable security precautions, you may be exposed to unauthorised programs transmitted by third parties, electronic trespassing, and potential information and data failures. Although we and our suppliers have privacy and security features in place to reduce these risks, we cannot guarantee their complete elimination. Therefore, you acknowledge that we are not liable for breaches of confidentiality or unauthorised access and use resulting from such events.
