Preface
To maintain fairness and order in the digital asset trading environment, Tovest conducts continuous compliance and risk control monitoring on all trading activities. The platform identifies abnormal behaviors through multi-dimensional signals including registration info, login IP, device fingerprint, capital flow, and order rhythm. Once suspicious activity is identified, Tovest reserves the right to take immediate disposal measures. These measures may be revised at any time; continued use of services constitutes acceptance.
