Money Laundering is understood as:
- The conversion or transfer of property, especially money, knowing that such property is derived from criminal activity or from taking part in such activity, for the purpose of concealing or disguising the illegal origin of the property or of helping any person who is involved in the commission of such an activity to evade the legal consequences of that person's or company's action.

- Participation in, association to commit, attempts to commit and aiding, abetting, facilitating and counselling the commission of any of the actions referred to in points before.

Organization of the AML
11.1
In accordance with the AML legislation, Gem Solutions B.V has appointed a Money Laundering Reporting Officer ("MLRO") that is responsible for coordinating the implementation of the AML Policy and policy program.

12
Customer Identification and Verification (KYC)
12.1
The formal identification of customers on entry into commercial relations is a vital element, both for the regulations relating to money laundering and for the KYC policy. This identification relies on the following fundamental principles:
12.2
A copy of your passport, ID card or driving license, each shown alongside a handwritten note mentioning six random generated numbers. Also, a second picture with the face of the user/customer is required. The user/customer may blur out every information, besides date of birth, nationality, gender, first name, second name and the picture, to secure their privacy.
12.3
Please note that all four corners of the ID have to be visible in the same image and all details have to be clearly readable besides the named above. We might ask for all details if necessary.
12.4
An employee may do additional checks if necessary, based on the situation.
13
Proof of Address
13.1
Proof of address will be done via two different electronic checks, which use two different databases. If an electronic test fails, the user/customer has the option to make a manual proof.
13.2
A recent utility bill sent to your registered address, issued within the last 3 months, or an official document made by the government that proves your state of residence.
13.3
To make the approval process as speedy as possible, please make sure the document is sent with a clear resolution where all four corners of the document are visible, and all text is readable. For example: an electricity bill, water bill, bank statement or any governmental post addressed to you.
13.4
An employee may do additional checks if necessary, based on the situation.
14
Source of Funds
14.1
If a player continuously deposits large amounts of money into the account, and if we deem it necessary, there is a process of understanding the source of wealth (SOW). Examples of SOW are:
- Ownership of business
- Employment
- Inheritance
- Investment
- Family
14.2
It is critical that the origin and legitimacy of that wealth is clearly understood. If this is not possible an employee may ask for an additional document or proof.
14.3
The account will be frozen if the same user deposits either this amount in one go or multiple transactions which amount to this. An email will be sent to them manually to go through the above and an information on the website itself.
14.4
www.chapinwin.com also asks for a bank wire/credit card to further ensure the identity of the user/customer. It also gives additional information about the financial situation of the user/customer.
