When the payment request is generated for the Publisher (legal entity or an individual), the customer's information regarding his identity and activity is verified by our team to comply with our legal obligations and tax responsibilities. These checks ensure the security and the accuracy of the information in the account and minimize any discomfort that could arise later in the case of tax discrepancies.
- In the case of legal entities, if the data from public sources proves that the company no longer exists/is dissolved, has ceased, or has suspended its activity, our compliance team will withdraw the verification and cancel the payment until the other way is confirmed.
- In the case of individuals, our team checks whether the KYC process has been completed following the requirements of our verification provider. Depending on the particularities of each account, our compliance team may block the account or ask the individual Publisher to repeat the personal identification process.
The Publishers (legal entities or individuals), corroborating these provisions with clause 5.10, have one year from being notified until their account is deleted for inactivity.
As a rule, all our legal partners have the obligation and the responsibility to announce any change of business nature which could affect their relationship with the Company. In this case, you can contact our Compliance team using the following email address: kyc@coinzilla.com. -
Our Compliance team could cancel the payment or / and deactivate the account of the Publisher without being limited to the following situations:
- The legal entity registered in Coinzilla no longer exists/is dissolved, suspended, or has any other status with which the Company could not be part of a business relationship.
- The legal entity registered as a user of Coinzilla refuses to collaborate and update its billing information with accurate information.
- The Company discovers that the Publisher's websites registered on Coinzilla account receive bot traffic.
- Or any other situation that could affect the Company, the Ad network of Coinzilla or Coinzilla’s Advertising activity and its Advertisers.
- Users cannot change their account type in Coinzilla from an individual to a company account or from a company account to an individual account and neither transfer the balance from one account to another account, except the case when the same legal entity or individual is behind that Coinzilla accounts.
- Users who are individuals and not legal entities should ensure that the address introduced in the address field matches the address from the identity document used during the KYC verification. If we discover during our verifications that the address needs to be completed or corrected an e-mail will be sent from us for the correct information within 5 days. In case the user does not provide accurate information within this term, the verification of the account will be withdrawn and the user must contact our compliance team to reactivate it.
