Both international and local regulations require Cex-Trade to implement effective internal procedures and mechanisms to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, drug and human trafficking, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, corruption and bribery and to take action in case of any form of suspicious activity from its Users.
AML/KYC Policy covers the following matters:
-Verification procedures: Cex-Trade’s identity verification procedure requires the User to provide Cex-Trade with reliable, independent source documents, data or information (e.g., national ID, international passport, bank statement, utility bill). For such purposes Cex-Trade reserves the right to collect User’s identification information for the AML/KYC Policy purposes. Cex-Trade will take steps to confirm the authenticity of documents and information provided by the Users. All legal methods for double-checking identification information will be used and Cex-Trade reserves the right to investigate certain Users who have been determined to be risky or suspicious.

Therefore, Cex-Trade relies on data analysis as a risk-assessment and suspicion detection tool. Cex-Trade performs a variety of compliance-related tasks, including capturing data, filtering, record-keeping, investigation management, and reporting
-Risk Assessment: Cex-Trade, in line with the international requirements, has adopted a risk-based approach to combating money laundering and terrorist financing.

VIII. Risk Disclosure statement
Trading Tokens can be extremely risky and each particular Token has a unique feature set that makes it more or less likely to fluctuate in value. In addition, factors beyond Cex-Trade’s control may affect market liquidity for a particular Token, such as regulatory activity, market manipulation, or unexplainable price volatility. Blockchain networks may go offline as a result of bugs, hard forks, or a number of other unforeseeable reasons. Cex-Trade does not assume the risk of losses due to trading or due to factors beyond its control regarding the viability of specific blockchain networks. As a general matter, we advise Users with limited trading experience and low risk tolerance not to engage in active trading. Speculating on the value of Tokens is high risk and Users should never trade more than they can afford to lose.
Understanding Tokens requires advanced technical knowledge. Tokens are often described in exceedingly technical language that requires a comprehensive understanding of applied cryptography and computer science in order to appreciate inherent risks. Listing of a Token on Cex-Trade does not indicate approval or disapproval of the underlying technology regarding any Token, and should not be used as a substitute for your own understanding of the risks specific to each Token. We give you no warranty as to the suitability of the Tokens traded under these Terms and assume no fiduciary duty in our relations with you.
You accept the risk of trading Tokens. In entering into any transaction on the Platform, you represent that you have been, are, and will be solely responsible for making your own independent appraisal and investigations into the risks of the transaction and the underlying Tokens. You represent that you have sufficient knowledge, market sophistication, professional advice and experience to make your own evaluation of the merits and risks of any transaction or any underlying Token.
You are responsible for complying with applicable law. You agree that Cex-Trade is not responsible for determining whether or which laws may apply to your transactions, including tax law. You are solely responsible for reporting and paying any taxes arising from your use of the Services.
