Know Your Customer (KYC) Policy

TRADE AVIATOR LIMITED ("TradeAviator") operates on a foundation of absolute transparency and uncompromising security. We maintain this advanced Know Your Customer ("KYC") Policy to ensure that every participant entering our digital environment is identified with precision. Our objective is the total neutralization of risk: we identify and eliminate threats of fraud, money laundering, and financial interference before they reach the platform.

This protocol is engineered to exceed international elite standards, including the FATF Risk-Based Approaches and all applicable local regulatory requirements. It serves as the primary engine within our wider compliance infrastructure, standing alongside our global sanctions grid and advanced data sovereignty rules.

By creating an account or using any TradeAviator service, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which together form a binding agreement between you and TradeAviator.

This policy is a global mandate applying to all TradeAviator participants, whether individual traders or institutional partners. It governs every officer, contractor, and operational employee involved in the identification and risk-management lifecycle.

It also extends to our vetted third-party service providers who assist in biometric verification and fraud analytics. TradeAviator remains the ultimate authority, maintaining full accountability for the integrity and success of every verification outcome.

• Know Your Customer (KYC): The multi-layered control grid used to authenticate a user's legal identity and construct a comprehensive risk profile.
• Customer Due Diligence (CDD): The standard level of identification and verification applied to ensure a participant meets the platform's operational requirements.
• Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD): Elevated scrutiny for high-volume or complex accounts, requiring senior approval and deep-tier source-of-wealth documentation.
• Politically Exposed Person (PEP): Individuals holding prominent public functions who carry a heightened exposure to corruption and influence-related risks.
• Identity Assurance (CIV): The practical, biometric, and digital steps taken to confirm a user's legitimacy to a reasonable and risk-appropriate standard.

TradeAviator operates a structured identity verification process designed to achieve the highest level of identity certainty:

• Individual Protocols: We collect comprehensive personal data, including full legal name, date of birth, residential address, nationality, and government-issued identity documentation. We verify this via document authentication, global database cross-referencing, and workflows designed to detect forgery, synthetic identities, and impersonation.
• Liveness & Face Verification: We utilize advanced biometric liveness detection to confirm that the person seeking access is the legitimate owner of the presented credentials. These biometrics are handled with the highest privacy safeguards.
• Zero Anonymity: TradeAviator does not permit anonymous access. Any user who refuses to provide sufficient identity documentation or fails to satisfy our verification engine will be restricted from all platform services.

We do not treat every user the same. TradeAviator adopts an RBA that applies stronger controls where risk is higher and streamlined controls where risk is lower. Users are categorized into risk tiers (Low, Medium, or High) based on geography, transaction behavior, occupation, and fraud signals.

A user's risk rating directly influences the depth of due diligence, the frequency of KYC refreshes, and the intensity of ongoing monitoring.

EDD is a mandatory requirement for relationships assessed as high-risk. This includes PEPs, participants linked to high-risk jurisdictions, or complex institutional structures. The EDD protocol includes:

• Collecting additional, corroborated identification evidence
• Establishing a clear Source of Wealth (SoW) and Source of Funds (SoF)
• Conducting detailed adverse media and global reputation checks
• Requiring senior executive compliance approval before granting elevated trading limits

For corporate accounts, TradeAviator requires absolute transparency. We demand evidence of legal existence, proof of business address, and the identification of all authorized signatories. Where ownership is layered or opaque, we apply rigorous EDD.

We reserve the right to terminate any relationship where the control structure creates an unacceptable risk to the platform's integrity.

TradeAviator conducts continuous surveillance to ensure that participant behavior remains consistent with their declared profile. Our monitoring system watches for red flags, including:

• Unusually large or rapid movements of capital
• Transaction patterns inconsistent with the user's expected volume
• Frequent cross-border exposures or attempts to bypass platform controls

Where monitoring indicates a breach of standard parameters, we may request an immediate KYC refresh or temporarily restrict account functions pending investigation.

We maintain an always-on screening grid to identify exposure to sanctioned persons, entities, or associated identifiers. Screening occurs at onboarding and on a recurring basis.

If a confirmed sanctions match is identified, TradeAviator will take immediate action to refuse services, freeze associated access, and treat related transactions as prohibited.

TradeAviator maintains complete, encrypted records of all KYC activity. These records—including original documents, risk assessments, and verification outcomes—are retained for at least five (5) years post-relationship.

All data is stored in a secure environment with restricted access limited to authorized internal personnel based on their specific role.

Your identity data is treated with the highest level of confidentiality. However, to support legitimate compliance and platform safety, TradeAviator may share limited, relevant context with vetted third-party partners on a strict need-to-know basis.

This sharing is limited to confirming verification outcomes or resolving a compliance review. All such transfers are governed by secure transmission protocols and strict data minimization.

At TRADE AVIATOR LIMITED, our team serves as the frontline guardian of platform integrity with a zero-tolerance policy toward financial crime:

• Mandatory Escalation: All personnel must immediately report suspicious activity to the Compliance team via secure internal channels. This includes suspicious transaction patterns, identity inconsistencies, attempts to bypass security grids, or potential fraud signals.
• Resolution & Enforcement: The Compliance team will execute a thorough investigation to determine the necessary response, which may include forensic review, account restriction, or formal reporting to authorities.
• Anti-Tipping Off: Absolute confidentiality is required. Staff are strictly prohibited from disclosing to any participant or third party that a report has been made or that an account is under review.

At TradeAviator Limited, compliance is a mandatory operational requirement. Any deviation from this Policy is treated as a critical breach:

• Internal Personnel: Employees, contractors, or agents who fail to adhere to these protocols will face immediate disciplinary review, which may result in termination and escalation to legal authorities where criminal misconduct is identified.
• Participants & Partners: Users who refuse to provide required identity credentials, submit fraudulent documentation, or attempt to bypass security grids will be immediately restricted. TradeAviator reserves the right to suspend or permanently terminate any account engaging in suspicious or prohibited activity.
• External Service Providers: Any third-party provider who fails to meet our identity assurance requirements will face immediate remediation demands or contract termination.
