Q: How do you monitor actors for illicit activity?
We use blockchain intelligence information provided by industry-leading third-party blockchain analytics providers. These providers combine onchain data and real-world investigations to identify potential financial crime and other potentially harmful activities that attempt to use the Uniswap Labs interface.
We intend to only block wallets that are owned or associated with potential illegal behavior like sanctions, terrorism financing, hacked or stolen funds, ransomware, human trafficking, and child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
Q: Why are you doing this?
Uniswap Labs’ policy is to prevent people engaged in illegal behavior from using the Uniswap web app or Uniswap Wallet.
We remain committed to developing products that provide a safe, transparent, and robust financial infrastructure that can empower users around the world.
Q: Why was my wallet blocked?
If your wallet has been blocked in the Uniswap interface, then it has been flagged with a strong likelihood of being linked to illegal activity.
Q: My wallet was blocked from using the Uniswap Labs interface and I believe this is a mistake. How do I get unblocked?
We do not anticipate many errors, but they are always possible. Please email compliance@uniswap.org if you believe that your wallet address was blocked erroneously.
Please note that we do not control third-party blockchain analytics providers or their independent determinations about risk categories and wallet addresses.
Q: Are your data collection and data privacy practices changing?
We will continue to log addresses that use the Uniswap Labs interface. Our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy are the most definitive sources on Uniswap Labs' data collection policies.
