Privacy policy

We collect almost nothing about you

KYC Lane is a plain static website: there's no sign-up, no account, nowhere to log in, and no form that submits data to our server. When you read an article or use a tool, nothing on our end needs — or picks up — your name, email, ID document, or any other personal detail. Put simply, reading one of our guides is a lot like leafing through a printed booklet: we don't write anything down.

The tools run entirely in your browser

The self-serve tools on the site — the limit look-up, document filter, face-verification self-check, checklist builder, progress tracker, and so on — process whatever you tick or type only inside your own browser. Nothing is uploaded to us. A few of them (the progress tracker, for one) use your browser's localStorage to keep your progress on this device so you can pick up where you left off next time. That data lives in your browser, you can clear it whenever you like (just clear your browsing data or site data), and we can't read it.

Visit statistics, no ad tracking

This site uses Google Analytics to measure visits. It is not used for personalized advertising, and you can switch it off at any time through Analytics settings. Visits from Europe are asked for consent first. Tool inputs are not submitted as analytics data.

The one third-party request we make (an honest disclosure)

One thing is worth stating plainly: the page fonts load through Google Fonts (from the domains fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). That means when you open a page, your browser automatically sends a request to those two Google domains to fetch the fonts — a third-party request that exposes some technical information (your IP address and browser type, the sort of thing any request carries by default). How that data is handled falls under Google's own privacy policy and is outside our control. We mention it so you're aware of it.

Links that leave the site

The site has links to outside places like Binance (for instance, the "Sign up on Binance" button, which opens Binance's own page in a new tab). Once you click through and land on someone else's website, their privacy policy applies and this page no longer governs anything. For how Binance and similar platforms handle your information, go by their respective policies.

Your rights and how to reach us

The analytics code loads when a page opens. If your browser's time zone is in Europe, the site asks first and loads nothing until you agree; for visits that Google places in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, no analytics cookies are set before you agree, and only cookieless measurement requests may be sent. Analytics settings lets you refuse at any time: the page reloads, this domain's GA cookies are cleared and the code is not loaded again; previously sent data is not deleted automatically. Your choice is stored in this browser for 180 days; analytics cookies are configured to last at most 180 days. Refusing or clearing browser data does not restrict reading or tools. Google may process data on servers outside your region. Use the contact details on this page for data-related requests. [email protected]

Minors

The content here (opening a Binance account and passing KYC) is meant for adults and is not directed at minors, and we don't knowingly collect any information from them. Dealing with crypto assets comes with its own age and compliance requirements, so please make sure you meet the rules where you live before using it.
