Privacy and responsible verification

Trust begins with how information is handled.

Identity verification and referencing involve sensitive personal information. Our approach is designed around clarity, proportionality and respect for subjects’ and referees’ rights.

Informed participation

Subjects are told who is requesting the check, why information is needed and how it will be used.

Lawful and proportionate

Each workflow should have an appropriate lawful basis and collect only information relevant to the assessment.

Transparent reporting

Reports identify sources, distinguish declarations from verified facts and disclose meaningful limitations.

Controlled access

Subject information and reports are restricted to authorised people involved in the request.

Retention discipline

Information should not be retained longer than necessary for the stated purpose and applicable obligations.
