Here’s an overview of the key elements from Verify 365’s comprehensive privacy policy to help you understand how your personal data is managed.
Data Processing Roles and Responsibilities
Verify 365 operates both as a Data Processor and a Data Controller. When providing services, it processes user information as directed by clients, making the client the Data Controller who determines the purpose of processing personal data. However, for visitors of Verify 365’s website and other direct interactions, Verify 365 acts as a Data Controller. This distinction is crucial for understanding how your data is handled and who is responsible for it.
Collection and Use of Personal Data
Verify 365 collects personal data to perform identity verification services. This includes processing information from your driver’s licence, passport, or ID card upon your consent. The data collected can range from personal details like name and date of birth to biometric data, such as facial recognition details. This information is used strictly for verifying identity in compliance with anti-money laundering and KYC (Know Your Customer) regulations.
User Rights and Data Retention
Users have several rights concerning their personal data under the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), including the right to access, rectify, and erase their data, among others. Verify 365 is committed to only retaining personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil its services or as required by law.
Security and Disclosure of Personal Data
The security of your personal data is paramount. Verify 365 implements various physical, technical, and organisational measures to protect data from unauthorised access or breaches. However, it may share your data with authorised third parties, such as legal authorities or clients, under strict legal conditions.
Automated and Manual Verification Processes
Verify 365 uses both automated and manual processes for identity verification. This includes the use of algorithms for initial assessments and human intervention when necessary to ensure accuracy and fairness in the verification process.
Special Provisions for Children and Jurisdiction-Specific Notices
Special attention is given to the personal data of children under the age of 16, requiring guardian consent for processing. Additionally, Verify 365 provides jurisdiction-specific notices for residents of California and Illinois, detailing additional rights and provisions under local laws.
Updates and Modifications to the Policy
The privacy policy is subject to change, and Verify 365 commits to keeping users informed about any significant updates. Users are encouraged to review the policy periodically to stay informed of their rights and any new compliance measures.
How to Reach Out
For any concerns or queries regarding personal data, users can contact Verify 365’s data protection officer via email at info@verify365.app. This contact is a direct line for support regarding privacy practices or data management issues.
