- Omavon LTD does not operate a trading platform, issue tokens, or provide custodial exchange services.
By using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this disclosure and accept full responsibility for evaluating the suitability and legality of using our Services in your jurisdiction.
4. Custodial Status of Wallet Services
Omavon LTD operates as a NON-CUSTODIAL service platform with respect to wallet infrastructure. All wallet services, key management, and digital asset custody are managed exclusively by licensed independent third-party wallet infrastructure providers.
By using our wallet-related services, you acknowledge and agree that:
- Omavon LTD does not hold, manage, control, or have access to your private keys or digital assets at any time.

5. AML/KYC Framework and Compliance
5.1 General Approach
Omavon LTD is committed to preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. Our compliance framework is calibrated to the nature of purely blockchain-based transactions and is applied progressively based on risk level.
5.2 Blockchain-Only Transactions
For purely on-chain (blockchain-to-blockchain) transactions, Omavon LTD does not impose mandatory Know Your Customer (KYC) or Know Your Business (KYB) requirements as a precondition to using the Services. This reflects the decentralized and permissionless nature of public blockchain infrastructure.
5.3 Fiat Conversion — Mandatory KYC/KYB
KYC/KYB verification is mandatory where a Merchant or User wishes to convert cryptocurrency assets into fiat currency (e.g., Nigerian Naira, US Dollar, or any other sovereign currency). In such cases, the KYC/KYB process will be conducted by a licensed financial intermediary or payment partner designated by Omavon LTD.
5.4 Risk-Based KYC/KYB
Omavon LTD reserves the right to require KYC/KYB verification in the following additional circumstances:
- Where a blockchain transaction is flagged by our automated monitoring systems or compliance partners as high risk, suspicious, or potentially linked to money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or sanctions violations.
- Where a transaction volume, frequency, or pattern triggers risk thresholds defined under Omavon LTD's internal compliance policies.
- Where required by applicable law, regulatory directive, or a request from a competent authority.
Failure to complete KYC/KYB verification when requested by Omavon LTD may result in suspension or termination of the relevant transaction or account.
5.5 Transaction Monitoring
Omavon LTD employs automated on-chain transaction monitoring tools to detect suspicious activity. Transactions flagged as high risk may be paused, investigated, and reported to relevant authorities in accordance with applicable international AML standards.
5.6 Prohibited Activities
The Services must not be used for:
- Money laundering or terrorist financing
- Transactions involving sanctioned individuals, entities, or jurisdictions
- Fraud, cybercrime, or unauthorized access to financial systems
- Any activity prohibited under Nigerian law or applicable international law
6. Repeated Deposits
Repeated deposits are additional payments sent to the same deposit address after the original payment has been received. These deposits are processed at the current exchange rate at the time they are received and are marked with either the "Partially Paid" or "Finished" status depending on the Merchant's account settings.
Generated deposit addresses are designed for a single use. Merchants acknowledge that such addresses are intended for one-time deposits only, and that any repeated deposits sent to such addresses are processed as repeated deposits linked to the original transaction. Any attempts to use such addresses for subsequent transactions are at the Merchant's own risk.
Omavon LTD is indemnified from any liability for the misdirection or loss of funds of repeated deposits. Merchants acknowledge that they fully understand the mechanics of deposit handling and the implications for repeated deposits.
Merchants are strongly advised to verify their withdrawal wallet address before making any deposits, whether original or repeated, to avoid any potential loss of funds.
In cases where the Merchant has enabled the Custody feature, all repeated deposits will always be credited to the Merchant's balance (as applicable) in the same Virtual Asset in which the original deposit has been made.
7. Refunds
7.1 Refund Process
All refund requests are subject to review and approval by the Omavon LTD support team. Omavon LTD reserves the right to reject any refund request that does not comply with our policies or raises security concerns.
For security purposes, refunds to addresses not originally involved in the transaction will require additional validation. This may include, but is not limited to, small amount verification transfers or video verification.
7.2 Merchant Responsibilities
The Merchant is responsible for ensuring the accuracy of all refund requests, including the refund amount and destination address.
Any crediting of funds to the user by the Merchant without explicit confirmation from Omavon LTD that the refund is possible and has been processed shall be solely at the Merchant's own risk and responsibility.
Omavon LTD shall not be liable for any losses incurred by the Merchant due to unauthorized access to their account. Merchants are strongly advised to maintain strong, unique passwords and enable all available security features.
7.3 Refund Limitations
Omavon LTD reserves the right to limit, delay, or refuse refunds in cases where we suspect fraudulent activity, violations of our Terms, or to comply with legal or regulatory requirements. Refunds may be subject to additional fees and/or requirements, which will be clearly communicated before the refund is finalized.
7.4 Virtual Assets Extraction
The Virtual Assets extraction process can take up to twenty (20) business days. If the Merchant wishes to expedite this process, additional charges may apply. Unsupported Virtual Assets deposited into our system cannot be extracted or returned. Omavon LTD reserves the right to handle these on a case-by-case basis.
