Legitimate Interests of a third party: Our customers will have their own lawful basis for processing your data and will have communicated this with you. Our services initiated by them help to prevent fraud by ensuring you are who you say you are, so you can access goods and services compliantly. Many of our customers must also meet a legal obligation when processing your personal data, such as ensuring you are old enough or verifying your identity in order to comply with money laundering and related legislation. Consent: The journey includes steps that will perform face match and liveness tests so your biometric data will be processed. This is special category data under the GDPR, and Veriphy will rely on explicit consent under Article 9(2)(a) to process such data. |
