Financial institutions and closely related entities (such as e.g. cloud mining services) experience often attempts of money laundering and terrorist financing. Money laundering is defined as the process where the identity of the proceeds of the crime are so disguised that it gives the appearance of legitimate income. Terrorist financing is defined as the process of providing support to individual or group terrorists. Without direct terrorist financing, such activities as fund-raising, use and possession and funding arrangements also falls under the definition of terrorist financing.
Foxy Mining Ltd (the Foxy Mining) pays thorough attention to any activities that may be considered as money laundering or terrorist financing. FOXY Mining AML policy is designed to prevent money laundering by complying with UK AML legislation obligations including the need to have adequate systems and controls in place to mitigate the risk of being used to facilitate the financial crime. To minimize and mitigate the risk of money laundering and/or terrorist financing, Foxy Mining implemented effective internal measures and procedures:
Before any customer can access and benefit of Foxy Mining services, identity of such customer has to be established.

Customers that in the opinion of Foxy Mining pose higher risk may be investigated more thoroughly which may result in requesting of additional information and taking longer term for verification of the identity of such customer. Foxy Mining retains a right to re-establish the identity of the customer in cases where Foxy Mining Ltd sees it fit and in relation to that, request additional data/documents/information or renew previously submitted. Customer’s identification information will be collected, stored, shared and protected strictly in accordance with Foxy Mining Privacy Notice and related regulations.
To mitigate and minimize the risks, Foxy Mining has adopted a risk-based approach which enables to identify, assess, and understand the money laundering and terrorist financing risk to which Foxy Mining Ltd is exposed, and take the appropriate mitigation measures in accordance with the level of risk.
