KYC stands for “Know Your Customer”. This is a process established by banks to confirm the identity and address of their customers. We use this process to establish identities and to ensure there isn’t any misuse or misappropriation being done through our services. We keep all KYC information confidential and secure.

我们的 KYC 客户审查措施，属于我们进行反洗钱（AML）措施的一部分，根据防止洗黑钱条例框架进行。我们对所有新客户都遵循严格的尽职调查和责任追究准则，亦会执行多种背景审查及报告要求。

The purpose of our KYC form and AML framework is to provide safety for our existing clients and new clients alike, despite the fact that the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency space is largely unregulated at the moment. Our methodology is to follow established guidelines from banking. In order to establish trust and prepare for regulation, we must pave the way by setting our own standards. Above all else, we maintain a network of respectable clients and intend to continue this in perpetuity.

This has two main benefits. Firstly, it assures the public that the OTC is running legitimately and in a proper manner. It also plays a role in protecting the OTC from investigation by governments and financial authorities seeking to detect and prohibit fraudulent transactions. Ensuring that all of our clients meet these requirements ensures the safety of our entire network.
