KYC Policy

1. Purpose

Stark Funded's Know Your Customer (KYC) policy ensures we verify the identity of all traders before processing payouts. This protects our platform and complies with applicable regulations.

2. When KYC Is Required

KYC verification is required before your first payout is processed. You may begin trading without completing KYC, but payouts will be held until verification is complete.

3. Required Documents

You must provide: (1) a valid government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID, or driver's licence), (2) proof of address dated within the last 3 months (utility bill, bank statement), and (3) a selfie holding your ID if requested.

4. Verification Process

Documents must be submitted through your client dashboard. Verification is typically completed within 24-48 hours. You will be notified by email once verification is complete or if additional documents are required.

5. Rejection and Appeals

If your KYC is rejected, you will receive a reason and may resubmit corrected documents. If you believe a rejection was made in error, you may appeal by contacting support@starkfunded.com within 14 days.

6. Data Protection

All KYC documents are stored securely and handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Documents are retained only as long as required by law and are never shared with third parties except as required for verification.

7. Ongoing Monitoring

We may request updated KYC documents periodically or if suspicious activity is detected. Failure to provide updated documents may result in payout suspension.
