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.

我們的 KYC 客戶審查措施，屬於我們進行反洗錢（AML）措施的一部分，根據防止洗黑錢條例框架進行。我們對所有新客戶都遵循嚴格的盡職調查和責任追究準則，亦會執行多種背景審查及報告要求。

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. 

我們採用 Onfido 的文件驗證及生物驗證科技工具，作為我們 KYC 與 AML 措施框架的一部分。我們使用 Onfido 的最先進技術系統，處理客戶資料數據，從而確保客戶身份真確有效。
