KYC

This Know Your Customer (“KYC”) Policy explains how we verify the identity of our users and comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CTF) regulations. By registering and using our platform, you agree to the procedures described in this Policy.

1. Purpose of the KYC Policy

The KYC process is designed to:

  • Verify the identity of our customers.
  • Prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, and illegal activity.

We operate under international standards, including but not limited to:

  • Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recommendations.

  3. Approval or Request for More Info: If documents are unclear or expired, additional information will be requested.
  4. Account Activation: Once verification is successful, the account is fully enabled.

Processing times may vary, but most verifications are completed within 24–72 hours.

KYC is not limited to initial registration. We maintain continuous monitoring to detect suspicious activities.

This includes:

  • Reviewing large or unusual transactions.

Suspicious activity may result in account restrictions, reporting to authorities, or termination.

  • Additional documentation (proof of income and business background) is required.

  • Senior management approval for account continuation.

9. Data Protection and Confidentiality

We take privacy seriously. All KYC data is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
