AML Policy

Anti-Money Laundering Policy

btc-swap.io supports a compliance-oriented approach to the prevention of money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, sanctions evasion, and other unlawful use of digital assets.

This AML Policy explains the standards that may apply to the use of this website, related communications, and any swap-service interactions connected to the website environment.

Purpose of this policy

The purpose of this AML Policy is to state that btc-swap.io does not support the use of cryptocurrency services for unlawful activity.

This includes, but is not limited to:

• money laundering
• terrorist financing
• fraud
• identity misuse
• sanctions evasion
• theft or handling of stolen funds
• use of prohibited wallet infrastructure
• deceptive transaction behavior intended to conceal source of funds

Risk-based approach

btc-swap.io applies a risk-based compliance perspective. Activity may be reviewed where there are indicators of elevated risk, inconsistent behavior, technical anomalies, or possible links to unlawful conduct.

Risk indicators may include:

• unusual transaction patterns
• mismatched or suspicious wallet behavior
• links to sanctioned or high-risk addresses
• use patterns associated with fraud or concealment
• inconsistent user-provided information
• signs of attempted abuse of service flows or technical systems

Verification and review

Where necessary and proportionate, a transaction or related request may be subject to review before further processing or response.

Such review may include checks relating to:

• blockchain transaction history
• wallet risk signals
• sanctions screening
• source-of-funds concerns
• destination risk concerns
• amount irregularities
• network inconsistencies
• technical markers associated with suspicious behavior

Additional information may be requested where needed to clarify the legitimacy of an interaction.

Possible compliance actions

If risk concerns arise, btc-swap.io or relevant service operators may take one or more actions, including:

• requesting additional verification
• delaying processing pending review
• refusing to proceed with a transaction-related request
• restricting access to related functionality
• keeping internal compliance records
• reporting suspicious circumstances where required by law
• cooperating with competent authorities, regulators, or law enforcement where legally required

Sanctions compliance

Users must not use btc-swap.io in connection with any activity that would violate applicable sanctions laws or restrictions.

This includes activity involving:

• sanctioned persons
• sanctioned entities
• sanctioned jurisdictions
• blocked wallets or addresses
• prohibited counterparties

If a wallet, transaction, or related activity appears connected to sanctions risk, review and restriction measures may apply.

Source of funds

Users may be asked, where justified, to provide information that helps explain the origin of funds or the purpose of a transaction.

Failure to provide reasonably requested information may result in non-processing of the related request or compliance escalation.

Recordkeeping

Where necessary for security, legal compliance, or audit purposes, btc-swap.io may retain records related to compliance reviews, communications, risk signals, and technical event logs for a reasonable period.

User obligations

By using btc-swap.io, users are expected to:

• provide accurate information when requested
• avoid misleading or deceptive conduct
• use only lawfully controlled wallets and funds
• comply with applicable laws and regulations
• avoid sending funds through prohibited or high-risk channels where restricted
• cooperate with legitimate compliance requests where appropriate

Users must not attempt to bypass security, screening, or compliance procedures.

No guarantee of processing

A submitted request, communication, or transaction-related interaction does not guarantee acceptance, completion, or continued availability.

Compliance review may affect timing, status, or outcome where risk factors are identified.

Reporting and cooperation

btc-swap.io may cooperate with regulatory authorities, law enforcement, courts, or other competent bodies where required by applicable law, legal process, or legitimate compliance obligations.

Geographic considerations

AML and sanctions requirements differ by jurisdiction. Users are responsible for ensuring that their use of digital assets and related services is lawful in the country or region from which they access the website.

Users located in jurisdictions with stricter compliance rules may be subject to additional review standards where applicable.
