Launchpad KYC/AML Policy
1. Scope
Pixpel Launchpad is operated by Pixpel FZ-LLC, a Free Zone Limited Liability Company incorporated in Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates (trade license no. 47013369). Pixpel applies Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) procedures in line with international standards.
2. Triggers
KYC/AML checks are required in the following cases:
- When a Developer creates a Rocket (mandatory KYB/KYC).
- When a Player contributes above 1,000 USDT equivalent in a single transaction.
- When a Player's cumulative contributions exceed 5,000 USDT equivalent in a rolling 12-month period.
- Enhanced due diligence may be requested when contributions exceed 10,000 USDT equivalent.
- When flagged activity is detected (e.g., high-risk jurisdictions, suspicious behavior).
3. KYC Verification
KYC verification applies exclusively to Developers acting as token issuers on the Launchpad. Traders or contributors participating in Rockets are not subject to KYC requirements unless required by applicable law.
4. Process
- Verification is performed by regulated third-party providers.
- Pixpel stores only reference IDs and outcome codes (pass/fail, risk score).
- Raw documents are never stored by Pixpel, in accordance with the Privacy Policy.
