We collect only what we need to verify you're a real, living human. Your photo is deleted within 24 hours of processing — always, no exceptions. We never sell your data. We never share it with advertisers. Your personal information is never shown publicly. The only thing anyone can look up about you is whether your badge is valid, expired, or revoked — nothing else.
Huverify ("we," "us," or "our") operates the identity verification platform at huverify.com. Our mission is to provide a trusted, privacy-respecting credential that proves a person is a real, living human being. Huverify means Human verification, digitally trusted — that's the standard we hold ourselves to.
If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at hello@huverify.com.
We use Stripe Identity to verify your government-issued ID and confirm you are a live, present human being. During this process, Stripe captures:
Stripe processes this data on their secure infrastructure under their own privacy policy. We receive back only a structured verification result — confirmed name, date of birth, document type, and whether the verification passed. We never receive or store raw images of your face or ID document.
This is our most important privacy commitment and we state it plainly: your photo and ID document images are permanently deleted within 24 hours of processing, without exception.
We do not store your face. We do not build a facial database. The mathematical embedding used to verify your face match is processed by Stripe and is not retained by Huverify after verification is complete. After 24 hours, nothing visual about you exists in our systems.
Your ID number is stored only as a one-way cryptographic hash — a mathematical fingerprint that allows us to detect duplicate applications without ever being able to reconstruct the original number. Nobody, including us, can reverse this hash to learn your ID number.

The following information about you is strictly private and accessible only to you when signed into your account:
The only information accessible publicly via your badge code is: whether your badge is valid, expired, or revoked. Nothing else. An employer or platform checking your badge learns only that a real human was verified — they learn nothing about who you are.
We share your data only with the following service providers, strictly for the purposes described:
We do not sell your data to any third party. We do not share your data with employers, platforms, or any other organization. We do not share data with data brokers, advertisers, or analytics companies.
We may disclose data if required by law, court order, or to protect against fraud or harm — but only to the extent legally required and never beyond it.
