1. INTRODUCTION
EZ Sweeps Inc. (hereinafter, “we,” “us,” or “our”), operating the https://www.ezsweeps247.com social casino platform (the “Platform”), is dedicated to fulfilling obligations imposed by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. This FinCEN Compliance Policy (the “Policy”) formalizes our approach to detecting, preventing, and reporting financial crimes—including money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illegal activities—consistent with broader legal and regulatory standards.
Read this Policy in conjunction with our [Terms & Conditions] (“Terms”), [AML/BSA Policy], [KYC Policy], Source of Funds Policy, [Privacy Policy], and additional relevant guidelines. Should any conflicts arise, the Terms prevail.
2. SCOPE AND APPLICATION
This FinCEN Compliance Policy extends to all users, employees, and third-party service providers linked to EWSweeps247. Our aim is to preserve the Platform’s integrity and prevent its misuse for any unlawful financial ventures.
3. KEY COMPLIANCE PRINCIPLES
3.1. Know Your Customer (KYC) Standards
Identity Verification: We employ rigorous identity checks to verify user identities. In certain cases, users must submit a valid government-issued ID and proof of address (see [KYC Policy]).
Secure Data Handling: All verification data is stored securely and exclusively for compliance purposes, consistent with our [Privacy Policy] and data protection norms.
3.2. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Program
EWSweeps247 practices a risk-based AML program to prevent misuse of our Platform:
Customer Due Diligence (CDD): Identifying and validating user identities with robust KYC methods.
Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD): Applied to higher-risk users or extensive transactions, based on risk analysis.
Ongoing Monitoring: Continuous transaction oversight to identify and review suspicious activity.
3.3. Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR)
SAR Filings: We file Suspicious Activity Reports with FinCEN if certain transaction patterns or user activities suggest potential financial crimes.
Confidentiality: By law, we do not notify users when SARs are submitted.
3.4. Currency Transaction Reporting (CTR)
CTR Obligations: EWSweeps247 submits CTR filings for transactions that exceed regulatory thresholds.
Additional Information: Users handling high-value transactions may be required to provide extra details to ensure compliance.
3.5. Record Retention
We preserve compliance records (e.g., ID data, transaction logs, reporting documents) for at least five (5) years, as required by FinCEN regulations.
3.6. Prohibited Activities
Strictly disallowed on the EWSweeps247 Platform:
Concealing Fund Origin: Attempting to disguise a source of funds.
Unauthorized Transactions: Using the Platform for unauthorized or disguised financial activities.
Structuring: Dividing transactions to evade reporting thresholds.
3.7. Training and Internal Controls
Employee Training: Our staff undergo routine AML, KYC, and FinCEN compliance instruction.
Internal Controls: We periodically verify that transaction-monitoring tools and risk assessments remain effective.
3.8. Third-Party Vendors and Partners
We guarantee that external payment processors and service providers follow FinCEN mandates and AML criteria, per our [AML/BSA Policy] and Source of Funds Policy.
3.9. Enforcement and Consequences
Breaches of this Policy can lead to:
Account Suspension or Termination: Immediate freeze or closure for non-compliant actions.
Reporting to Authorities: Notification of relevant agencies (including FinCEN).
Legal Action: Possible fines or license revocations.

Secure Data Storage: Personal and verification information is protected by industry-standard encryption and controlled access.

User Rights: Users can use GDPR/CCPA rights (access, rectification, erasure, data handling preferences) under our [Privacy Policy].
