SARLAFT Policy of Oceanidad

At Oceanidad Foundation, we are committed to acting with integrity, transparency, and full compliance with Colombian and international regulations on the prevention of money laundering and the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT).

This policy, known as SARLAFT (Sistema de Administración del Riesgo de Lavado de Activos y Financiación del Terrorismo), establishes the procedures and controls that guide all our financial and partnership activities.

Why We Collect Certain Donor Information

To comply with legal requirements and ensure the transparency of all donations, we may request basic information and documents from donors, such as:

  • Full name and identification number (ID, passport, or tax ID/RUT).

  • Declaration / proof of the lawful origin of funds.

  • Bank details for verifying or processing donations (for large donations).

This information allows us to confirm that all contributions come from lawful and ethical sources and to comply with reporting duties before the UIAF (Unidad de Información y Análisis Financiero) and other competent authorities.

All personal data collected for this purpose is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the principles of confidentiality, purpose limitation, and restricted access.

How We Use and Protect Donor Data

Your information is used exclusively to:

  1. Verify the legal origin of funds and comply with Colombian SARLAFT regulations.

  2. Keep required records of donations and financial operations.

  3. Report any suspicious or unusual operations to the relevant authorities, if necessary.

Oceanidad implements strict administrative, technical, and legal measures to protect your personal and financial data.
Only authorized personnel involved in compliance and financial management have access to this information.

Our Due Diligence Process

  • Donors: We verify the origin of donations and, when required, may request supporting documentation such as bank statements or a Declaration of Lawful Origin of Funds.

  • Suppliers and Partners: We consult international restrictive lists (UN, OFAC, EU) and Colombian registries (RUPE) to ensure all third parties meet ethical and legal standards.

  • Transactions: Cash payments are limited and traceable; all operations are recorded and retained for 10 years in accordance with the law.

Your Rights and Our Commitment

You have the right to access, update, and correct your data, and to request its deletion when legally appropriate.
We guarantee the confidentiality of your information and use it solely for legitimate, transparent, and lawful purposes.

Oceanidad’s SARLAFT Compliance Officer is responsible for monitoring and updating this system, training our team, and ensuring compliance with reporting obligations.
