KYC policy OF duelduck.com

Last updated: December 22, 2025

The Company adheres to and complies with Know Your Customer (“KYC”) principles and applicable anti money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (“AML/CTF”) requirements. These measures are designed to prevent financial crime, money laundering, and terrorist financing through customer identification, verification, and ongoing due diligence.


The Company reserves the right, at any time, to request any KYC documentation it reasonably deems necessary to verify the identity, location, and risk profile of a user. The Company may restrict access to the Services, suspend transactions, or limit withdrawals until identity verification is completed, or where such measures are required to comply with applicable laws, AML/CTF obligations, sanctions requirements, or internal risk assessments.


The Company applies a risk-based approach and conducts appropriate due diligence checks and ongoing monitoring of customers and their transactions throughout the business relationship. In accordance with applicable AML/CTF regulations, the Company applies different levels of due diligence depending on the customer’s risk profile, transaction activity, jurisdiction, and other relevant factors, including:


SDD – Simplified Due Diligence, which may be applied only in limited cases involving demonstrably low risk customers and transactions, where permitted by applicable AML/CTF regulations;


CDD – Customer Due Diligence, which represents the standard level of verification applied in most cases for customer identification and verification;


EDD – Enhanced Due Diligence, which is applied to higher-risk customers, transactions, jurisdictions, or where required by regulatory obligations, including cases involving suspicious activity or increased AML/CTF risk.


Without limiting the foregoing, full KYC verification may be required before permitting withdrawals, where cumulative deposits or transaction activity exceed internal risk thresholds, or where any transaction is considered unusual, suspicious, or otherwise triggers enhanced review under the Company’s AML/CTF policies. During this process, the user will have to input some basic details about themselves and then upload:


1) A copy of Government Issued Photo ID (in some cases front and back depending on the ID document)

2) A selfie of themselves holding the ID doc

3) A bank statement/Utility Bill
