Photo Matching Service

The Photo Matching Service determines the degree of similarity between a client’s photo and the client’s reference photo stored in government databases.

This service is one of the stages of the customer identity verification and authentication procedures performed by a participant. The participant independently makes decisions regarding the outcome of these procedures, as well as the establishment of business relationships with the customer and the provision of services.

  • compares the customer’s photo received from the participant with the reference photo stored in government databases;
  • processes personal data based on the customer’s consent obtained by the participant;
  • provides the participant with the customer’s personal data based on the matching results.
