Protecting your assets with transparency, compliance, and layered defense.
Security isn’t just a feature at THE AURINKO FUND — it’s a core principle. This article walks you through the full spectrum of how we safeguard user accounts and maintain industry-best compliance through KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures and robust security protocols.
Know Your Customer — Because trust starts with clarity.
At THE AURINKO FUND, we take your security and regulatory compliance seriously. That’s why we require all users to complete a KYC (Know Your Customer) process. KYC helps protect against financial crime, identity fraud, and unauthorized activity—while also allowing us to provide a compliant, trustworthy environment for every user.
Completing verification is fast, fully encrypted, and designed with user privacy in mind. Here’s what it includes:
You’ll be asked to enter:
Full legal name (as shown on official documents)
Date of birth
Nationality
Complete residential address (street, city, zip code, country)
This helps us establish a verified identity record in compliance with international finance laws.
Next, you’ll need to submit one of the following valid identity documents:
Passport
National ID card
Driver’s license
📸 The document must be in color, clearly visible, and free of blur, glare, or cropping. All essential details—your photo, name, birth date, and expiry—must be readable.
To confirm you’re the rightful owner of the ID, we’ll guide you through a facial recognition step:
Either a real-time selfie using your device’s camera
Or a short video recording with small on-screen actions (like blinking or turning your head)
This measure helps prevent stolen identity attempts and ensures high platform integrity.
Depending on your region or the volume of assets you manage, we may also request:
Proof of address (e.g. utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 90 days)
Live video call verification with a certified KYC officer for additional validation
Most KYC checks are completed automatically in under 10 minutes
Manual review (if needed) takes 24–48 hours, depending on document quality or region
All data is encrypted and handled in accordance with GDPR and global privacy regulations
Add an extra layer of protection to your assets.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security mechanism that adds a second step to your login process, beyond just your password. Even if someone has your credentials, they won’t be able to access your account without the unique, time-sensitive code generated by your 2FA device.
At THE AURINKO FUND, enabling 2FA is strongly recommended and may be required for sensitive actions like withdrawals and password changes.
We support industry-standard TOTP (Time-Based One-Time Password) apps like:
Google Authenticator
Authy
Microsoft Authenticator, among others
These apps generate a new 6-digit code every 30 seconds that is unique to your account and device.
Go to your Account Settings, then select the « Security » tab
Click “Enable 2FA”
Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (or manually enter the setup key)
Enter the current 6-digit code from the app to confirm setup
Download and store your backup codes in a secure location in case your device is lost
Once activated, 2FA will be required when:
Logging into your account
Making withdrawals or API changes
Editing security-sensitive settings
If you lose access to your device:
Use your emergency backup codes to log in and disable 2FA
If no codes are available, contact our support team at contact@aurinkofund.com. You’ll be guided through a secure identity verification process
> 🔒 Pro Tip: Never share your 2FA codes with anyone, and avoid screenshots — use a secure password manager instead.
Real-time alerts, smarter communication, total control.
Email and SMS aren’t just communication channels — they’re your frontline alert system. At THE AURINKO FUND, we use them to notify you instantly of important account activity, ensuring that nothing happens without your knowledge or consent.
Depending on your preferences, here’s what you may receive:
Login notifications: Any time someone accesses your account from a new browser, location, or device
Withdrawal confirmations: You’ll get a confirmation email or SMS before any withdrawal is finalized — adding a crucial anti-fraud checkpoint
Security setting updates: If your 2FA, password, email address, or phone number changes, you’ll be alerted immediately
Unusual activity: We’ll flag unexpected behavior like multiple failed logins, access from high-risk regions, or device fingerprint mismatches
Head over to your Account Settings > Notifications tab to:
Choose your preferred notification method — Email, SMS, or both
Enable or disable specific types of alerts (security only, all activity, etc.)
Set “Quiet Hours” for non-critical communications, especially useful in different time zones
> 💡 Tip: We recommend keeping at least email-based alerts enabled at all times.
To protect you further:
All official emails from THE AURINKO FUND include your personal anti-phishing code (set in your Security Settings), helping you instantly confirm authenticity
We never request passwords or 2FA codes via email or SMS
If you ever receive a suspicious message, forward it to report@aurinkofund.com for verification
Transparency isn’t optional — it’s a promise.
Proof of Reserves (PoR) is a practice that publicly demonstrates a crypto platform’s solvency. It confirms that THE AURINKO FUND holds enough assets to cover all user balances — meaning your funds aren’t being borrowed, misused, or over-leveraged behind the scenes.
In other words: when you check your balance, you’re seeing real, verifiable holdings — not IOUs.
Our approach includes both internal checks and third-party validation:
Independent Audits: Conducted by licensed external firms at regular intervals
Merkle Tree Verification (if applicable): A cryptographic structure that enables users to verify their individual account balance is included in the global reserves
Internal Ledger Integrity: We reconcile live platform balances against our cold and hot wallets — ensuring 1:1 solvency at all times
All results and methodologies are published in digestible formats via our Transparency Reports section.
We empower our community to verify us, not just trust us. Depending on the model implemented, you may be able to:
Input a unique hash from your account
Compare it to the Merkle proof published on our platform
Confirm your balance is part of the total reserve — anonymously and securely
> 🔐 Your data is never exposed or linked to personal identifiers during this process.
Risk mitigation: Verifiable reserves reduce the likelihood of platform failure
Regulatory alignment: Positions THE AURINKO FUND ahead of compliance expectations
User trust: Shows we’re not just “saying” funds are safe — we’re proving it
New users receive a welcome reward when they complete their first transaction on THE AURINKO FUND.
