Law Enforcement
Last updated: November 2024
From time to time, Pallas receives information requests about its customers from law enforcement agencies around the world. This page is here to provide you and law enforcement with information about how these requests are processed.
When Pallas is contacted, law enforcement is generally interested in two types of data: information about customers’ identities and information about their activities using USDtb. As well, as part of their investigation, law enforcement may be interested in requesting that an address is frozen.
When information requests are received, Pallas requires that it be accompanied by appropriate legal process. This can vary from place to place. For example, production orders, search warrants, and subpoenas, but also requests for voluntary disclosure of data may all amount to legal process. Pallas reviews each order and request for voluntary disclosure to determine that it has valid legal basis and that any response is narrowly tailored to ensure that only the data to which law enforcement is entitled is provided. Similarly, requests to freeze Pallas addresses should be accompanied by appropriate legal process.
Pallas also reserves the right to make disclosures to authorities in order to protect itself, any Associates, and its customers.
Pallas welcomes inquiries from law enforcement agencies about its policies and procedures. Please contact Pallas at inforequests@pallas.vg.
