Travel Rule Compliance

As part of our obligations under the EU Transfer of Funds Regulation and the Danish Anti-Money Laundering Act (Hvidvaskloven), Coinify ApS is required to collect and transmit certain personal information related to crypto-asset transfers, commonly known as the “Travel Rule”.

The Travel Rule is a legal framework designed to prevent financial crime by requiring Crypto-Asset Service Providers (CASPs) to obtain and transmit specific identifying information about the payer (originator) in a crypto-asset transaction.

Purpose and Legal Basis

The processing of Travel Rule data is based on Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR, i.e., compliance with a legal obligation. This means we are legally required to collect, verify, retain, and share certain personal data as part of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing efforts.

Personal Data Collected

To fulfil these obligations, Coinify collects, at a minimum, the following information related to the payer:

  • Full name
  • Date of birth
  • Residential address
  • Wallet address

Where applicable, we may also collect additional identifiers.

Recipients

Travel Rule data may be shared with beneficiary CASPs, financial counterparties, regulators, and law enforcement. All such transfers of information are carried out under appropriate safeguards and legal mechanisms to protect your personal data.

Data Retention

Coinify is committed to ensuring that the data we collect from you is stored for no longer than necessary. This means that we only store your information for as long as necessary to deliver our services to you and to fulfil our legal obligations, currently 5 years.
