AML Policy
Exchange-USDT.org is committed to preventing the use of its services for money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, sanctions evasion, or any other illegal activity. This AML Policy describes the principles we may apply when reviewing transactions and user activity connected to the website and related exchange flows.
1. General Approach
We apply a risk-based compliance approach. This means that not every transaction is treated identically, and certain operations may be subject to additional checks depending on risk indicators.
We reserve the right to monitor transactions, assess blockchain-related exposure, and request additional information where necessary to comply with applicable anti-money laundering standards and internal risk controls.
2. Prohibited Use
The service must not be used for any unlawful or prohibited purpose, including but not limited to:
- money laundering
- terrorist financing
- fraud or theft
- sanctions violations
- use of stolen funds
- use of hacked or compromised wallets
- transactions connected to darknet markets
- transactions linked to ransomware activity
- attempts to conceal the origin of illicit proceeds
- the use of forged, misleading, or false information
If we detect or reasonably suspect such activity, we may refuse, suspend, delay, or cancel processing where possible.
3. Monitoring and Risk Review
We may use internal procedures and third-party tools to review transactions for risk factors, including:
- exposure to sanctioned addresses or entities
- links to known illicit services
- unusual transaction patterns
- wallet behavior associated with high-risk activity
- inconsistencies in transaction data
- signs of fraud, impersonation, or unauthorized use
Blockchain analytics may form part of this assessment.
4. Verification Requests
In some cases, we may request additional information or documents before continuing processing. Such requests may include:
- confirmation of identity
- proof of source of funds
- proof of wallet ownership
- explanation of transaction purpose
- screenshots, hashes, or other transaction evidence
- enhanced due diligence materials for higher-risk cases
Failure to provide requested information within a reasonable time may result in delays, rejection, or other compliance actions.
5. Transaction Holds and Refusals
We reserve the right to place a transaction on hold where we believe additional review is necessary. We may also refuse to process or complete a transaction if:
- required compliance information is not provided
- the transaction is flagged as high risk
- we suspect illegal or prohibited conduct
- the transaction may violate sanctions or legal requirements
- technical or security concerns prevent safe completion
Where required by law or risk policy, funds may be frozen pending review or reporting obligations.
6. Sanctions Compliance
Users must not use the service if they are subject to applicable sanctions or acting on behalf of sanctioned persons, entities, or jurisdictions where prohibited by law.
We reserve the right to screen transaction data and related information against sanctions risk indicators and to block activity that may create legal or compliance exposure.
7. Recordkeeping
We may retain compliance-related records, communications, and supporting documents for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- meet legal and regulatory obligations
- respond to lawful requests
- support fraud investigations
- resolve disputes
- enforce internal risk controls
Retention periods may vary based on the nature of the case and applicable legal requirements.
8. Cooperation With Authorities
Where required by applicable law, regulation, court order, or lawful request, we may share relevant information with regulators, law enforcement agencies, financial intelligence units, or other competent authorities.
9. User Responsibility
By using Exchange-USDT.org, you represent that:
- the funds you use are legal and belong to you or are used with proper authorization
- you are not engaging in illegal or deceptive conduct
- the information you provide is accurate and complete
- your use of the service does not violate laws applicable to you
- you will cooperate with legitimate compliance requests if required
10. Geographic and Legal Considerations
Users are solely responsible for determining whether use of the service is lawful in their jurisdiction. Access to or use of exchange services may be restricted or prohibited in certain countries, regions, or regulatory environments.
Nothing in this AML Policy constitutes legal advice or guarantees service availability in any jurisdiction.
11. Policy Changes
We may amend this AML Policy at any time to reflect changes in law, compliance practices, risk controls, or service operations. The updated version becomes effective when published on this page.
