2026-07-17 Policy
Ongoing
Identity verification is handled by Sumsub and can be triggered by fraud or stolen-fund reports, AML/CFT obligations, third-party fiat provider requests, or transactions the automated monitoring deems unusual. Flagged transactions may be placed on hold pending manual review, and the verification link expires after three days after which the case is handled individually. Users from certain jurisdictions face mandatory KYC, either on changenow.io or by being routed to changenow.com where access is granted only after verification completes.

The operator publishes dedicated law-enforcement and attorney request guidelines, with processing times of 1-2 business days for initial review and up to 15 for complex matters, plus an urgent track for imminent threats. It also maintains a public asset-recovery page documenting cooperation in recovering stolen funds. Disclosure is conditioned on a verifiable official request stating legal basis and scope, and the company reserves the right to decline non-compliant requests and notify affected parties where legally mandated. Operator: CHN Group LLC, Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Source: changenow.io/law-enforcement-request-guidelines
