# Restricted Access Policy

To ensure service compliance and prevent abuse and fraud, we will verify user identities in accordance with relevant international Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations.

**We offer four types of access policies:**

* Block Policy: In accordance with Thordata Compliance Norms, direct access to certain domain names is currently unavailable.
* Verification Policy: Short KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is required for specific domain names, and normal access will be granted upon successful verification.
* Application Policy: An access application must be submitted, and access permissions will be unlocked upon approval of the application.
* Trusted Domain Access Policy: The system grants unrestricted access to whitelisted trusted domains.
