Identity verification and anti-money-laundering

1. First, so as not to promise too much

Albirroja.com currently runs on play money. It takes no deposits, pays no withdrawals and moves no legal tender in either direction. We are therefore not a reporting entity before Paraguay’s Secretariat for the Prevention of Money or Asset Laundering (SEPRELAD), we do not file suspicious activity reports, and we do not apply the regime of SEPRELAD Resolution 258/2020 aimed at casinos and gaming halls.

Saying it this plainly is deliberate. A page describing a full anti-money-laundering programme over a site that moves no money would assert a control we do not exercise, and that is worth less than having no page at all.

2. What we verify today

Age: registration requires a date of birth and the server checks it against the eighteen-year floor. It is not a tick box: a date under eighteen makes registration fail, and the check is repeated server-side even though the form already ran it.

This is a DECLARED age checked against the date given, not an age evidenced by a document. We use those words because the difference matters: the document only becomes mandatory with real money.

Email: we check that it exists and that the person has access to it, because account access depends on it.

Phone: the site has one-time-code sending and checking available. Today it is a targeted support tool and not a registration requirement: the platform does not store a «phone verified» state and does not require it to play. We would rather write it that way than imply every account has a verified phone.

Account integrity: we detect and block multiple accounts held by one person, automated use and patterns of game manipulation. An account suspended this way cannot bet, and the reason is recorded.

3. Document verification exists and is ready

The site integrates document-based identity verification with a specialist provider, with cryptographic checking of the provider’s response on the server side: a response that does not arrive correctly signed is rejected, not believed. Today it is used narrowly, to resolve specific account-integrity cases.

The day any feature operates with real money, that verification becomes mandatory before any movement, and this page is rewritten with the detail of the applicable regime: accepted documents, deadlines, periodic revalidation and the reporting procedure.

4. What we would do with real money

Operating games of chance in Paraguay is governed by Law 1016/1997, amended by Law 7438/2025 and regulated by Decree 3846/2025, and its authority is the National Gaming Commission (CONAJZAR), currently within the National Directorate of Tax Revenue (DNIT). Operating with real money requires the corresponding concession.

With a concession in force, the programme would include: mandatory document verification before the first movement, source-of-funds identification above the applicable thresholds, monitoring of unusual transactions, appointment of a compliance officer, and reporting to SEPRELAD within the deadlines set by the rules.

None of that is running today, and we do not present it as if it were.

5. Minors

The site is not directed at people under eighteen. Where there are well-founded indications that an account belongs to a minor, we suspend it and delete their data. Anyone who notices such a situation can report it through the contact form.
