Regulatory Compliance

Our regulatory posture, plainly stated

Alphaforge is a software platform that connects users with verified Master Traders and automates the distribution of daily trading results. We are not a registered broker-dealer, investment advisor, money services business, fund manager, or licensed exchange in any jurisdiction. We do not provide regulated financial advice, hold client funds in fiduciary custody, or execute orders on regulated exchanges on behalf of clients.

What we do do is operate the software, maintain the integrity of the platform, and apply the compliance practices outlined below. We believe that being clear about what we are — and what we are not — is a more honest foundation for trust than overstated regulatory claims.

Compliance practices we maintain

Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML)

Every account on Alphaforge completes identity verification before depositing or withdrawing funds. We use a specialist KYC provider to verify government-issued identification, address, and identity-document authenticity. We screen against sanctions lists, politically exposed person (PEP) lists, and adverse media. Accounts that fail verification cannot transact.

Transaction monitoring

Deposits and withdrawals are reviewed for patterns associated with money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or sanctions evasion. Suspicious activity is investigated and, where required by law, reported to the appropriate authority in our jurisdiction of operation.

Audit logging

Sensitive actions on the platform — KYC approvals, withdrawal confirmations, daily P&L entries, admin overrides — are logged in a tamper-evident audit trail. The audit trail is retained for the periods required by tax, accounting, and AML law.

Data protection

Personal data is handled in line with our Privacy Policy. We apply industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access controls, and regular security reviews of our providers.

Custody

Alphaforge does not custody user crypto funds in self-managed wallets. Deposits and withdrawals are processed through an audited cryptocurrency payment processor with industry-standard custody practices. Funds in user wallets are reconciled daily.

Information security

We require multi-factor authentication for administrative accounts, follow least-privilege access controls, and run regular vulnerability scans across the platform.

What users are responsible for

You are responsible for:

• Determining whether using Alphaforge is lawful in your jurisdiction.
• Reporting and paying any tax due on profits you make (see Capital Gains Tax).
• Securing your account credentials and your withdrawal wallet address.
• Sending USDT only on the Tron network (TRC-20) when depositing or providing a withdrawal address.
• Following the Terms of Service and all applicable laws.

Disputes and complaints

If you believe Alphaforge has failed to meet the standards described here, write to compliance@alphaforge.com. We will acknowledge your complaint within five business days and respond substantively within thirty. If you are not satisfied with the outcome, you may escalate to the appropriate regulator or dispute body in your jurisdiction.
