Understanding permissions
A key feature of VerifiMe is that you control who can access your verified identity. Permissions allow service providers to:
View your basic identity information (name, address, contact details)
See your verification status
Conduct risk assessments as required for compliance
Access information needed to provide their services to you
What permissions do NOT allow
Even with your permission, service providers can never see:
Your passport number
Your driver license number
Your Medicare card number
Photos of your identity documents
Your biometric data or facial recognition information
Automatic permission grant
When you click Submit & Share on the “Agree to terms & conditions” step:
Implicit permission is automatically granted to that service provider:
This is called an "implicit grant"
It happens automatically when you submit, so there’s no extra step for you
You initiated the process by accepting their invitation, indicating you want to work with them
This permission allows them to complete their verification and compliance requirements
Why automatic permission makes sense:
You responded to their invitation specifically to work with them
They need access to complete your application or service setup
It saves you an extra step of manually granting permission
You can still revoke this permission later if needed
Managing permissions
Once you’ve finished your verification, you can manage your permissions at any time by logging into your VerifiMe Wallet.
Granting additional permissions:
If you want to work with a new service provider, you can grant them permission
Navigate to the permissions section in your wallet
Select the service provider from available organizations
Confirm the permission grant
Revoking permissions:
You can remove a service provider's access at any time
Go to your active permissions list
Select the service provider you want to revoke
Confirm the revocation
They will immediately lose access to your information (historical data is retained for compliance purposes)
