Our clients engage us on a wide range of matters to help them mitigate risks, for example to conduct due diligence and other screening activities on potential business partners and suppliers. In most cases, our clients engage us to fulfill specific legal or regulatory obligations and risk management procedures carried out in the public interest, in particular Swiss, EU or EU-member state anti-money laundering regulations [inter alia GAFI, Swiss AMLA]. We believe that KYC has a legitimate interest in processing data to support its clients in these objectives provided that the privacy rights of any data subject are not unduly affected.
In connection with our services and to maintain the KYC-Records we collect various types of personal data from a variety of different public sources such as public records and registers including sanction and watch lists, online and print media, and the internet.
The personal data we collect and process in the performance of services for and on behalf of our clients includes but is not limited to any information relating to a living individual in which the individual is identified or identifiable, for example, the individual’s name, gender, date of birth, contact information, as well as, where necessary, data concerning criminal convictions and offences, etc.
