Utopia Compliance

Disclaimer

1.Purpose

In order to maintain a sound and compliant digital asset trading platform, we have established and implemented a series of Anti Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing, and Trade and Economic Sanctions programs, and made relevant liability statements. We are committed to promoting legal and transparent business activities and maintaining a good reputation among users, regulatory agencies, and the digital asset industry.

2.Regulatory environments

We understand that regulatory authorities have taken various approaches to regulating and regulating digital assets, including defining or classifying digital assets as virtual financial assets (Malta), convertible virtual currencies (US FinCEN), or virtual commodities (Hong Kong). As a trading platform, we believe that all digital assets provided on the platform belong to innovative alternative asset categories, and therefore, digital assets should not be referred to as currency or money.

3.Disclosure

Digital assets are not legal tender. Digital assets are not supported by any government or central bank. We may have some insights into the regulatory approaches taken by various government entities at different times, but we will always fully comply with the regulations of the countries where we operate. At the same time, we regularly discuss with regulatory agencies and peers the best ways to regulate digital asset businesses.

We cooperate with government departments and comply with applicable laws and regulations. As good corporate citizens, law enforcement agencies may request information from us, and if law enforcement agencies conduct investigations to trace and prevent illegal activities, we will provide assistance as permitted by law. This also means that our platform is only suitable for law-abiding customers. We hope to provide you with services, and at the same time, we also hope that you can act legally and lawfully on our platform.

In addition, Utopia will not serve certain customers. In order to maintain a good reputation in the market and ensure high compliance, our services are not open to residents of certain countries or regions. For example, Canada, Chinese mainland, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macau Special Administrative Region, the Netherlands, Singapore, the US (including all US territories), the United Kingdom, any country designated as a restricted country under Utopia Anti Money Laundering/Counter-Terrorism Financing Policy, and any other jurisdiction that prohibits the provision of services or may subject us to regulatory penalties ("Restricted Jurisdiction"). This list of restricted jurisdictions may change and vary depending on the service. More information can be obtained by contacting Utopia Customer Support.

4.Anti Money Laundering/Terrorism financing programme

Through a risk-based multi-level control system, we have designed our own Anti Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism financing program to reasonably prevent money laundering and terrorist financing.

The first layer of the plan is a strict user identification process, which includes verifying the identity of individual or corporate users. In addition to obtaining identity documents, we also obtain information about their institutional Beneficial Owner/Natural Person from non-natural person users, which complies with international standards, such as the requirements of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to prevent money laundering.

The second layer includes risk-based system controls to ensure that additional customer due diligence is carried out. To achieve this, we will screen customers based on the list of institutions/personnel published in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government Gazette (including beneficial owners), the "US Foreign Assets Control Office (OFAC) Sanctions List", the "United Nations Security Council Sanctions List", and other sanction lists. We may also include other lists in the screening scope at our discretion to protect our reputation and customers.

The third layer is for continuous monitoring of suspicious activities. If we suspect or have reason to suspect the existence of suspicious transaction activities, we will submit suspicious transaction activity reports to local regulatory authorities at our discretion. Suspicious transactions are usually inconsistent with the customer's known legitimate business or personal daily transaction activities.

5.Risk

Digital asset trading is considered to have high risks. Digital assets are not backed by any government or central bank. Trading or holding digital assets can be risky. You should carefully consider whether interacting, holding, or trading digital assets is suitable for you based on your financial situation.
