When conducting crypto asset transactions that meet certain thresholds, Bitwyre will collect information about the sender and receiver, including name, wallet address, home address, and identification number.
The collected information must be sent along with the transaction to the receiving VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) or relevant parties. This ensures that authorities can track the information when necessary.
Bitwyre is required to store records of sender and receiver information for a specified period in accordance with regulatory requirements.
Bitwyre collaborates with other VASPs and international regulatory authorities to ensure compliance with the Travel Rule across different jurisdictions.
Customers can submit complaints through various channels, such as email, phone, live chat, or the complaint form on the Platform/Website.
Before processing a complaint, the customer service team will verify the customer's identity to ensure security and privacy.
All complaints are recorded in Bitwyre's complaint management system, which includes details such as the customer’s name, account ID, date and time of the complaint, and a description of the issue.
Each complaint is assigned a unique ticket number, allowing both the customer and the customer service team to track its status and progress.
Complaints are forwarded to the relevant team for further analysis and investigation. For example, transaction-related complaints are sent to the finance team, while technical issues are handled by the technical team.
The assigned team gathers all necessary information to understand the issue, including transaction logs, communication records, and other evidence.
If necessary, a temporary solution is provided to the customer while the investigation is ongoing. This could include a temporary refund or temporary access to the account.
Based on the investigation results, the team determines the best solution for the issue. This could include a refund, error correction, compensation, or other appropriate actions.
The investigation results and proposed solution are communicated to the customer through the appropriate channels. The customer is given the option to accept or reject the solution.
Once the customer agrees to the solution, the necessary actions are taken to implement it, such as issuing a refund, correcting the transaction, or resolving technical issues.
The customer is provided with confirmation that the issue has been resolved and the necessary actions have been taken. The ticket is closed once the customer confirms they are satisfied with the resolution.
All complaints and their resolutions are periodically reviewed to identify trends and recurring issues.
Based on this evaluation, process improvements are implemented to prevent similar issues from occurring in the future. This may include additional staff training, system upgrades, or policy changes.
To prevent the aforementioned threats and uphold the principles of transparency, integrity, and accountability, Bitwyre is committed to maintaining a robust and comprehensive framework through the Anti-Money Laundering, Combating the Financing of Terrorism, and Prevention of the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction programs, or collectively referred to as the 'Program.'
Bitwyre has established Procedural Rules related to the Program that serve as a guide for handling complex financial transactions and ensuring that Bitwyre remains steadfast in preventing, detecting, and reporting suspicious activities related to money laundering, terrorist financing, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
Under these Procedural Rules, Bitwyre will conduct a KYC (Know Your Customer) process by requesting personal information from prospective customers, such as full name and identification number.
The KYC process is carried out for identification and risk assessment, as well as mitigating those risks to an acceptable level. Bitwyre's Procedural Rules classify customers based on risk levels: high risk, normal risk, and low risk, by considering the following factors:
Furthermore, Bitwyre will implement Customer Due Diligence (CDD) procedures and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) for higher-risk cases. CDD is conducted to obtain current information on the customer profile based on their risk classification, ensuring consistency between the customer profile and their transactions. CDD may be carried out on all or part of the information obtained. Bitwyre conducts CDD under the following conditions:
Additionally, Bitwyre may perform EDD if the prospective customer is a beneficial owner categorised as PEP or falls into the high-risk category. EDD verification includes, but is not limited to, collecting additional information related to identity data, sources of funds or wealth, the purpose of the transaction, and tighter monitoring of transaction patterns.
The Bitwyre Board of Directors has appointed personnel, as determined by the Board of Directors, to implement and control the application of the Program and its Procedural Rules, which will be audited from time to time.
