AML and Compliance at Coinchain: What Users Should Know
A plain-language overview of anti-money laundering controls, supported use cases, and where to read the full policy.
Elena Vasquez
Security & Compliance Lead
Instant swaps can be misused like any financial rail. Coinchain operates with AML and sanctions controls appropriate to our product model — this article summarizes what that means for everyday users without replacing legal documents.
Screening and monitoring
Deposits and payouts may be checked against sanctions lists and risk signals. Transactions linked to flagged sources can be paused for review. We document these procedures in the AML policy on the docs section of the site.
Geography and eligibility
Some jurisdictions are restricted based on regulatory risk. Users are responsible for ensuring their use of Coinchain complies with local law. The terms of use and AML policy list current restrictions and update cadence.
Record keeping
Order metadata required for compliance may be retained according to policy retention schedules. We minimize personal data collection relative to full KYC exchanges but do not operate entirely outside regulatory expectations.
Read the full policy
For binding language, review the AML policy and privacy policy at coinchain.exchange/docs. Last updated dates appear at the top of each document. Contact compliance via official support if you represent a business integration.
