AML Policy
Anti-money laundering and abuse controls for RpcNode accounts, payments, and infrastructure use.
1. Purpose
RpcNode provides managed Full Node JSON-RPC access. We do not operate an exchange, custodian, or wallet that holds customer crypto assets. This AML / CFT policy (Anti-Money Laundering / Combating the Financing of Terrorism) describes how we reduce abuse risk around accounts, payments, and use of the Service.
This Policy complements our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
2. Our role
Customers use RpcNode to send JSON-RPC requests to blockchain networks. We do not take custody of user funds, execute trades for customers, or mix cryptocurrency. Abuse controls focus on account integrity, payment fraud, sanctions exposure, and prohibited use of infrastructure.
3. Prohibited activity
You must not use the Service to:
- facilitate money laundering, terrorist financing, or sanctions evasion;
- operate fraud, phishing, ransomware infrastructure, or similar abuse;
- bypass law enforcement or regulatory obligations applicable to you;
- provide access to persons or entities in sanctioned jurisdictions or on applicable sanctions lists, where prohibited;
- otherwise violate our Terms or applicable law.
4. Customer due diligence
We may, at any time and as risk requires:
- verify email and authentication factors;
- request identity or business information (KYC / KYB) before or after purchase;
- screen accounts and payment details against sanctions and fraud signals;
- limit, suspend, or refuse service when risk is unacceptable or information is incomplete.
Failure to provide reasonably requested information may result in suspension or termination without refund where permitted by our Terms and applicable law.
5. Payments and monitoring
Payments may be processed through third-party providers when enabled. We monitor for unusual billing patterns, chargebacks, and abuse of free or trial access. We may share necessary data with payment partners and authorities to investigate fraud or illegal activity.
Usage monitoring (volume, error patterns, IP reputation) may be used to detect automated abuse and protect platform integrity.
6. Sanctions
The Service is not offered where prohibited by applicable sanctions or export rules. You represent that you are not a sanctioned person and are not located in a comprehensively sanctioned jurisdiction, to the extent such restrictions apply to your use of the Service.
7. Reporting and cooperation
Where required or appropriate, we may freeze or terminate access, preserve logs, and cooperate with competent authorities. We are not obligated to notify you if notice would be unlawful or would compromise an investigation.
8. Record keeping
We retain account, billing, and relevant security logs for periods consistent with operational need and legal obligations, as described in our Privacy Policy.
9. Changes
We may update this Policy as our product, payment stack, or regulatory context changes. The effective date above will change when we publish a revision.
