POLICY AML LINK TAO

At LINK TAO, we take seriously our commitment to operate ethically within the digital asset ecosystem. We strive to contribute to the transparency of the digital financial system by preventing our platform from being used to conceal, transfer, or legitimize illicitly sourced funds.

Our operations comply with Mexican legislation on anti-money laundering and align with applicable international standards in this area.

Know Your Customer and Validation (KYC)

Before authorizing any transaction, all users must undergo a rigorous identity verification process, which includes:

Submission and validation of official identification documents.
Recent proof of address.
Evaluation of the declared economic activity and the reasonableness of the funds used.

Additionally, we apply a risk-based assessment approach, where user profiles are classified as low, medium, or high risk, which determines the level of supervision and control applied to each.

Transactions and Operational Monitoring

LINK TAO has implemented an automated transactional monitoring system capable of identifying unusual patterns, such as:

High or unjustified volume.
Atypical frequency of purchases or exchanges.
Transactions linked to sanctioned jurisdictions.

Any operation deviating from expected behavior will be reviewed by the compliance team. If internal investigation justifies it, an unusual activity report will be filed in accordance with Mexican regulations.

Information and Evidence Retention

In accordance with current legislation, LINK TAO will retain for at least five years:

All personal and financial data collected during user registration.
Complete records of all transactions carried out on the platform.
Documentary evidence related to internal investigations or filed reports.

Records will be securely stored in encrypted and protected media, ensuring availability for audit or regulatory inspection requests.

Staff Training and Compliance Management

All LINK TAO employees receive mandatory periodic training on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing topics, including:

Identification of suspicious activities.
Protocols for action and escalation.
Regulatory updates and recent typologies.

The compliance department has trained personnel, operational autonomy, and direct reporting to general management. This department is responsible for designing, implementing, and supervising the effectiveness of AML/CTF policies.

Policy Updates and Risk Adaptation

Given the constantly evolving digital asset environment, LINK TAO will update this policy as new risks, regulations, or criminal practices arise.
Users will be informed of any substantial changes. However, we recommend regularly reviewing this policy, as continued use of the platform implies tacit acceptance. LINK TAO believes that user trust and operational transparency can only be maintained in a legal and ethical environment. This policy represents our ongoing effort to prevent the use of our digital infrastructure for illegal purposes and to consolidate a safe commercial environment for all our users.
