8. AML/CTF requirements
The Company is committed to complying with all relevant legal requirements in the field of AML/CTF. Failure to submit the required information and documents or provision of incorrect or incomplete information and documents, or failure to comply with our other requests, will result in our Services being unavailable to you.
You can find a list of documents and information that we are obliged to request from you in our AML Policy. The Company performs the customer due diligence measures by means of our trusted partner Sumsub.com (Sum and Substance Ltd). If the User is uncooperative with our service provider and does not provide the requested data or information necessary to perform customer due diligence, we have the right to terminate a business relationship with such User. In order to be fully compliant with the AML laws, the Company:
-
performs monitoring of transactions. In the case of a suspicious and/or unusual transaction, we have the right to suspend it, including, but not limited to, the suspension of a withdrawal of your Virtual Assets/Fiat, for a certain period of time. The Company will not be liable to you for any default on any contractual obligations and for any damages or losses sustained by you;
-
reports any suspicious activity identified during the business relationship with Users to FCIS Bulgaria and other relevant authorities. The Company will not be liable to you for the execution of such an obligation.
The Company reserves the right to terminate a business relationship with User at any time if we determine that continuing such a business relationship exposes us to a money laundering and terrorist financing risk we no longer deem acceptable.
9. Fees
The Company charges Fees for the use of its Services, which are automatically deducted from your Account. The applicable Fees for each transaction will be displayed to you before executing the transaction.
The User is responsible for maintaining an adequate balance and sufficient proceeds in the Account to pay for fees and complete transactions, thereby avoiding overdraft, insufficient funds, or similar fees being charged. If you owe us any Fees, we will take the respective Fees you owe us from the Virtual Assets/Fiat we process on your behalf on the due date without your instruction. If you do not have enough Virtual Assets/Fiat to pay the Fees, we reserve the right to suspend the provision of our Services to you until such Fees are paid to us.
The Company may change the Fee structure at any time, including adding new fees for new Services. We will notify you of any changes to the Fee structure, which may be done by posting a notification on the Website or sending you an email. If you do not agree with the proposed changes, you should terminate your use of the Services and close your Account.
10. Refunds
Users understand and acknowledge that Virtual Asset transactions are irreversible and that the Company has no control over the Virtual Assets once they have been transferred to an external wallet or another platform. Users are responsible for ensuring the safety and security of their Virtual Assets and for conducting transactions with trusted and reputable third parties. We are not responsible for the Merchants’ refund policies. We suggest that Merchants provide a clear refund policy to their customers. Merchants are responsible for handling refund requests made by their customers. If we receive a refund request directly from a Merchant's customer, we will direct the customer to contact the Merchant to resolve the issue. We will not mediate disputes between Merchants and their customers, but may assist in providing relevant information, if necessary.
The Company reserves the right to establish the minimum amount that can be refunded on your behalf. If the amount requested is lower than the minimum refundable amount, the Company reserves the right not to issue the refund. Please note, we may charge Fees and deduct other costs for processing refunds on your behalf.
At our sole discretion, we may offer transaction reversals, refunds, or chargebacks in specific circumstances. Merchants must submit a request for such actions in accordance with The Company's policies and provide all necessary information and documentation to support their claim. The Company will review the request on a case-by-case basis and may approve or reject it based on its assessment of the situation.
11. Invoices
To receive a Virtual Asset payment, the User must create an invoice. This request must be made for the amount you wish to collect in your chosen settlement currency, and must be displayed on The Company's hosted Invoice User interface during checkout.
When processing transactions, we use the current Virtual Asset exchange rate, which is available through our Website and in your Account.
You must assume the volatility risk of your settlement Virtual Asset, as we do not guarantee the future value of your chosen currency. We do not guarantee the future value of the US Dollar or any other currency. If you choose to receive some or all of your settlement in Virtual Asset, we do not guarantee the future value of that Virtual Asset.
Once a transaction has been fully paid by your customer, reaches the required number of block confirmations, and is credited to your Account, the invoice is considered "Complete" by us. The number of confirmations required for a transaction may vary depending on the blockchain being used and our internal risk analysis.
To reduce the risk of fraudulent payments, we employ various risk mitigation techniques to detect unconfirmed payments, such as payments that are at risk of never receiving the required number of block confirmations. However, these measures do not entirely eliminate the risk associated with unconfirmed payments.
If, based on the result of transactions monitoring, we have reason to suspect that the cryptocurrency used as payment comes from an illegal source or is "dirty", the Company has the right to freeze such payment to ascertain the circumstances. In this case, the Merchant is obliged to request their customers for confirmation of the origin of the source of funds and provide it to us. The Company will examine the submitted documents as soon as possible and decide to unfreeze the transaction if it complies with our risk appetite.
You may choose to inform your customer about the status of an invoice, such as when the customer has sent payment, but the transaction has not yet been confirmed. A confirmed invoice indicates that payment has been made, and the required block confirmations have been reached, and the transaction has also passed our risk validation measures, but it still needs to be credited to your account ledger.
We are not liable for settling invoices that are not considered fully paid or complete. In other words, if you accept payment before it is credited to your account ledger, it will not be settled to you if it is determined to be fraudulent or otherwise invalid.
The Company may add new Virtual Assets to the invoice, and these additional currencies will be enabled by default unless you request that we disable them. We may also remove certain Virtual Assets as a payment option under certain circumstances.
All transactions, including payments, deposits, withdrawals, and others, are recorded in the User's Account and can be accessed for a period of time determined by The Company. If you identify an error, you must notify us within thirty (30) calendar days at support@goldenratio.exchange.
12. Account Closing and Suspension
The User may close their Account at any time by contacting our Customer support at support@goldenratio.exchange after withdrawing all balances, subject to minimum amounts which technically cannot be withdrawn. Upon closure of the account, the User authorizes the Company to cancel or suspend any pending transactions at the time of cancellation, and any balance in the account will be delivered to the User or to their Virtual Assets address as instructed, less any outstanding amounts owed to us, the unsubsidized coin/miner network transaction fee, and any other third-party charges.
The User shall not use closure of the account as a means of evading investigation or inquiries by The Company. If any queries or investigation is pending at the time the User requests closure of their account, we may refuse the User’s request to close the account and hold their Virtual Assets and funds as appropriate to protect The Company against financial and legal liability. If the User is later determined to be entitled to some or all of the Virtual Assets and funds in dispute, we will pay such Virtual Assets and funds to the User. The User will remain responsible and liable for all obligations related to the account, even after such an account is closed.
If the User does not access the Company account for a period of six (6) months, and we have been unable to contact the User after a reasonable number of attempts at the last contact address we have for the User in its records, the account may be terminated in our sole discretion.
We reserve the right to suspend your account in the event:
-
we reasonably believe your account has been compromised, as well as for any other security reasons;
-
we reasonably believe your account is being used by a person with no right and/or authorization to do so;
-
the User fails to comply with these Terms of Use, as well as with any other document that construes a part of these Terms of Use;
-
the User has provided us with any false, incomplete, misleading, or inaccurate information; the User, their account, and their behavior pose reputational risks to The Company;
-
we reasonably suspect the User of fraud, violating the Applicable Law;
-
the User refuses to pay Fees;
-
other reasons that constitute a violation of these Terms of Use and the Applicable Law.
We may, but are not obliged to, notify the User about the reasons for their account suspension. Assets from the account will be withdrawn to wallets, information about which the User shall provide to the customer support.
In the event of account closing or suspension, the User will still be liable for all applicable fees. The Company is not liable for any losses suffered due to the User's account closure or suspension.
