Legal & Compliance

NIUFO operates with a fundamental commitment to legal and regulatory compliance, recognizing it as essential for building trust in the digital asset ecosystem. Our approach is proactive and integrated into all aspects of our platform and operations.

Corporate Structure & Compliance Foundation

NIUFO Crypto Exchange (niufo.com) is operated by NIUFO CRYPTO GROUP LIMITED, a company duly registered in the United States. This provides a clear legal framework and underscores our commitment to accountability. We adopt a "compliance-by-design" philosophy, embedding regulatory considerations from the outset. Central to this is our adherence to US regulations, including the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and robust Anti-Money Laundering (AML) / Counter-Financing of Terrorism (CFT) programs supervised by FinCEN.

Key Compliance Measures

Our commitment translates into concrete actions:

  • • Robust AML/KYC Program: We implement stringent, risk-based Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures, including mandatory identity verification for key functionalities, and utilize sophisticated systems for ongoing transaction monitoring and sanctions screening against relevant international lists (OFAC, UN, EU).
  • • Global Monitoring & Expertise: We continuously monitor global regulatory shifts and engage specialized legal counsel for financial technology and digital assets to guide our compliance efforts and ensure adaptability.
European Market Focus: MiCA Readiness & GDPR

Europe is a key strategic market, and NIUFO is proactively preparing for the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation. Our readiness strategy involves aligning policies, procedures, and platform features with MiCA standards and pursuing the necessary Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) licenses in target EU member states.

We are also fully committed to upholding data protection principles under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), ensuring transparency, user control over personal data, and robust data security measures for our European users.

Regulatory Risk Management

We acknowledge the inherent regulatory risks and uncertainties in the digital asset space. NIUFO mitigates these risks through our proactive compliance posture, strategic planning for operational adaptability, continuous monitoring of the global landscape, transparency with our users, and reliance on expert legal counsel. Users should remain aware of these risks as outlined in the Disclaimer (Section 0).
