This policy is based on:

  • EU Directive (EU) 2015/849 (AMLD4) and (EU) 2018/843 (AMLD5),

Each buyer must verify their identity before being allowed to purchase tokens. The following steps are mandatory:

For individuals:

  • Full name, date of birth, residential address
  • Upload of a valid ID document (passport, national ID card)

5. Automated Checks & Wallet Screening

We use automated screening tools to compare wallet addresses against known sanction lists (OFAC, UN, EU), darknet transactions, or other high-risk factors. Wallets with suspicious transaction behavior may be excluded from the token sale.



6. Data Storage & Privacy

  • All data will be stored for at least 5 years after the end of the business relationship.
  • Data is stored in encrypted form on servers within the EU.
  • Buyers may request information about the stored data at any time (in accordance with the GDPR).


7. Reporting of Suspicious Activities

  • Suspicious cases will be reported immediately to the national Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU).
  • Purchases may be blocked without prior notice if suspicion arises.
  • There is no legal entitlement to participate in the token sale.


8. Responsible Officer (MLRO)

An internal compliance officer (Money Laundering Reporting Officer – MLRO) is responsible for:

  • Implementing and monitoring AML procedures
  • Coordination with external service providers (e.g., Onfido, SumSub)
  • Cooperation with law enforcement authorities


9. International Investors

Investors from countries with high AML risk (according to the FATF list) are excluded from purchasing tokens. These include, among others:
