  Enforcement of policy
  ‍
  As noted above, OFAC maintains and publishes a list of countries, people, and organizations that are subject to sanction. Loop Crypto takes the following actions to ensure it adheres to these sanctions and more broadly avoids interaction with any nefarious actors globally.
  ‍
  (1) Screen all web3 wallets with Chainalysis’s sanction screening tool. It is of critical importance that Loop Crypto does not interact with wallets known to be owned and operated by sanctioned individuals. Therefore, the company employs the use of Chainalysis’s wallet screening tools, which offer one of the largest and most comprehensive wallet blacklist in the world. Only wallets that        pass the Chainalysis screen are permitted to interact with Loop Crypto applications.
  ‍
  (2) Block all individuals and entities from OFAC-sanctioned countries and regions from interacting with Loop Crypto’s web services (e.g., website, checkout pages, company dashboard, customer portal, etc.).
  ‍
  (3) Monitor and restrict access to individuals who appear on the OFAC SDN list. The company is subscribed to email updates from the Department of Treasury for OFAC updates. For any concerns or questions related to this policy, please contact Loop Crypto at help@loopcrypto.xyz.
