Once a transaction is complete, the Digital Currency is stored in an Exchange, and the user is able to transfer the

Transaction executed by you as needed to complete the Transaction or as required under any inquiry or in the

event of detection of fraud or suspicion of such.

10. RISKS

Exchanging goods or products, real or virtual, as well as Digital Currency involves significant risks. Prices can

fluctuate at any given time. Due to such fluctuations, your assets may increase or lose value, or even become

worthless at any given moment. There is an inherent risk that losses will occur as a result of buying, selling or

exchanging anything on a market.

Digital Currency exchanging has additional and special risks not generally shared with official currencies. Unlike

most currencies, which are backed by governments or other legal entities, or by commodities such as gold or

silver, Digital Currency is a unique kind of “fiat money”, backed by technology and trust. No central bank will take

corrective measures to protect the value of the Digital Currency.

Instead, Digital Currency is an unregulated worldwide and autonomous network of currency, for firms and

individuals to take part in. Digital Currency relies on peer-to-peer networking and cryptography to maintain its

integrity.

Digital Currency exchanging is most likely susceptible to irrational (or rational) "bubbles", which could collapse.

For example, such collapse can be as a result of unexpected governmental changes, technical problems, hackers,

software developers imposed changes, the creation of superior and/or competing alternative currencies, and

other additional risks that we have not foreseen or identified in our Terms.

Before using the Services for the purpose of purchasing, exchanging and/or exchanging Digital Currency, you

should carefully assess whether your financial standing and tolerance for risk are suitable for such purchasing

and exchanging.

contemplated by these Terms of Use. We may provide information on the price, range, volatility of Digital

Currency and events that have affected the price of Digital Currency but this is not considered investment advice

and should not be construed as such. Any decision to purchase or sell Digital Currency is your exclusive

14. MONEY LAUNDERING

The Company does not tolerate money laundering and supports the fight against money launderers. The

Company follows the guidelines set by the UK’s Joint Money Laundering Steering Group. The UK is a full member

of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), the intergovernmental body whose purpose is to combat money

laundering and terrorist financing. Money laundering occurs when funds from an illegal/criminal activity are

moved through the financial system in such a way as to make it appear that the funds have come from legitimate

sources. International Anti-Money Laundering requires financial services institutions to be aware of potential

money laundering abuses that could occur in a customer Account and implement a compliance program to deter,

detect and report potentially suspicious activity. Policies and guidelines have been implemented to protect the

Company and its clients.

The Company now has policies in place to deter people from laundering money. These policies include:

ensuring clients have valid proof of identification;

maintaining records of identification information;

determining that clients are not known or suspected terrorists by checking their names against lists of

known or suspected terrorists;

informing clients that the information they provide may be used to verify their identity

closely following clients’ money transactions

Not accepting cash, money orders, third party transactions, exchange houses transfers or Western Union

transfers.

For questions/comments regarding these policies and/or guidelines, please contact us

at [email protected].
