Account verification allows creating a secure environment on the Bitcoin Global platform. Verification helps users to trust each other and prevents using accounts for illegal purposes. Bitcoin Global requires verification to know who its users are in order to comply with the applicable legal requirements and to meet anti-money laundering and terrorism funding prevention regulations’ criteria. Account verification is also an essential personal security feature because it allows you to recover your account if you lost it for any reason.
All Bitcoin Global account verification data is stored and handled in compliance with the relevant legislation. More details can be found in our Privacy Policy.
