Restricted jurisdictions and sanctions

Persons resident or located in the following may not invest through Krows:

• United Kingdom, because of the restrictions on crypto-asset promotions.
• Countries and territories subject to comprehensive sanctions or embargoes: North Korea, Iran, Syria, Cuba, and the occupied regions of Crimea, Sevastopol, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson.
• Russia and Belarus, to the extent EU sanctions restrict crypto-asset related services.
• High-risk jurisdictions subject to an FATF «call for action».
• Any country where using services like Krows or offering crypto-assets is prohibited, such as mainland China.

When investing you declare your country of residence and that you do not live in any of these places. Each user is responsible for checking that the law of their country allows them to use Krows and invest in the listed startups, including in the United States, where token offers may be subject to securities law.

Persons or entities on EU, UN, UK or US OFAC sanctions lists, or controlled by them, may not use Krows either. Krows may screen wallet addresses against public sanctions lists and block their use on the platform.

Founders must not target their offer at these jurisdictions and are responsible for applying the geographic restrictions required by their offer’s rules on their own website.

This list is reviewed periodically as international sanctions and regulation evolve. Using tools to hide your location to evade these restrictions is a breach of the terms.
