The purpose of the profipoint Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer Policy (hereinafter - the “AML/KYC Policy”) is to identify, prevent and mitigate possible risks of profipoint being involved in illegal activity. In conformity with international and local regulations profipoint has implemented effective internal procedures to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, drug and human trafficking, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, corruption and bribery and to react correspondingly in case of any form of suspicious activity from its Users. AML/KYC Policy includes Verification procedures, Compliance Officer, Monitoring Transactions, and Risk Assessment.
profipoint will take steps to confirm the authenticity of documents and information provided by Users. All legal methods for double verification of identification information will be used, and profipoint reserves the right to investigate the cases of certain Users whose identities have been identified as dangerous or suspicious. profipoint reserves the right to verify the identity of the User on an ongoing basis, especially when its identification information has been changed or its activities appear suspicious (unusual for a particular User). In addition, profipoint reserves the right to request from the Users current documents, even if they have been authenticated in the past.
Information about the user's identification will be collected, stored, shared and protected strictly in accordance with the profipoint Privacy Policy and relevant rules.
