Hello everyone!
A lot of cryptocurrency exchanges these days ask users to go through KYC checks, mostly to follow the law and keep things secure.
But have you ever wondered why exactly they do this? Is it just about obeying rules, or is there something more to it?
Cryptocurrency exchanges typically need name, address, passport, photo ID, etc. to ensure you are who you claim to be, which aids in the prevention of fraud and money laundering.
But do they handle this process themselves, or are they hiring other companies to check your details? And how safe is your information once you hand it over? Some platforms also set limits on your account if you haven’t completed KYC.
If you’re curious about these things, it’s fair to ask of course: Why does the exchange really need your data, what do they do with it, and who actually gets to see it? These are important questions to ask for anyone using a crypto exchange today.
I don't think they will need another company to manage to information, when you signup to that website, all the information will go to the database they will handle those information, big companies have their own IT department i think that manage everything and maintains everything, it is also require now for kyc, so that if you do something like laundering money its easy to check who it is, since most of these exchange are require by the country to submit information upon the request for investigation.
