Privacy Policy

Introduction
At mmERCH, we value innovation and aim to revolutionize the fashion industry by leveraging the power of blockchain technology. Our strategic approach involves creating and offering distinctive products that seamlessly integrate the digital, physical, and virtual realms (“Products”). While our focus is on disrupting the traditional fashion system, we are committed to transparency about how we collect and process personal information.
Through our Services, users are able to collect unique digital assets including digital fashion that evolves and can be used in the “metaverse”; and where such digital fashion assets can be claimed in physical form—granting the collector the ability to express themselves through fashion in both the digital and physical world. Utilizing blockchain technology, our digital fashion assets are tokenized, associated with your digital wallet information and recorded to the blockchain ledger.
