Verifications and Screenings
Evolve implements a layered set of technical, compliance, and operational controls to help enforce eligibility restrictions and mitigate misuse. These controls support compliance and risk management, but they do not guarantee prohibited users will never attempt access and they do not eliminate all risks.
1) In-app screening processes
A) IP and geolocation screening
When you visit the Evolve website or application, your IP address may be analysed to estimate geographic location. If an IP is identified as originating from a restricted jurisdiction, access to the website or certain functionality may be blocked. This may include measures designed to detect or restrict access via VPNs, proxy services, or anonymisation tools where inconsistent with compliance requirements.
B) Wallet screening
When you connect a wallet, Evolve may screen the wallet using third-party tools to identify wallets associated with:
sanctioned entities
known illicit activity
high-risk blockchain exposure
other compliance red flags
If a connected wallet is flagged, Evolve may disconnect the wallet, block access, restrict mint/redeem, or require enhanced verification.
2) KYC/KYB and AML checks (where applicable)
Certain features (especially mint/redeem) may require identity verification or business verification (KYC/KYB), including AML screening, to satisfy compliance requirements. If required, you must complete verification before accessing restricted flows.
3) Ongoing monitoring and rescreening
Evolve may:
rescreen wallets or users periodically
request updated information
apply enhanced due diligence for elevated risk signals
restrict or suspend access based on compliance outcomes
4) Limitations
Screening tools and data sources can be incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate. A “pass” result is not a guarantee that a user is low-risk or compliant, and a “flag” may require manual review. These controls reduce risk but do not eliminate it.
5) Actions we may take
Based on screening/verification outcomes, Evolve may:
block access from restricted jurisdictions
restrict mint/redeem functionality
place accounts/wallets into a review state
request additional information
report activity where required by law
terminate access consistent with the Terms & Conditions
