A BrightID is a personal identifier that allows you to receive rights and benefits based on your ability to prove that you're a unique person.* Unlike a government identifier such as a Social Security Number, a BrightID is self-issued and verified by close friends or relatives. Personal data is not shared with a central organization. To become verified and receive a BrightID score, make connections with the people you already know well. *To see which organizations are participating in BrightID benefits, visit the BrightID website at https://www.brightid.org PRIVACY The name and photo you enter in BrightID are only shared with people in your personal connections list. Your name and photo are not stored or used by BrightID outside of your device.
