4.IDENTITY VERIFICATION
SAFEE MEET may offer identity-verification services to help users make more informed decisions before interacting with another person.
Identity verification may involve:
- Government-issued identification.
- Name and date-of-birth matching.
- Document authenticity checks.
- Selfies or photographs.
- Video-based verification.
- Facial comparison.
- Device or account-security signals.

A verification status indicates only that a particular verification process was completed according to the criteria used at that time. It does not guarantee that a person is trustworthy, safe, honest, reliable, or free from criminal history.
Verification information may be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, unavailable, or subject to technical or legal limitations.
5.FACIAL RECOGNITION AND BIOMETRIC INFORMATION
Where available and legally permitted, SAFEE MEET may use facial-recognition or facial-comparison technology to help verify that a person matches an identification document or previously submitted image.
Facial images, facial templates, biometric identifiers, and related information may be considered sensitive or biometric information under applicable law.
Before collecting or processing biometric information, SAFEE MEET may provide additional notices and request consent where required.
We may use biometric information to:
- Verify identity.
- Prevent impersonation and account fraud.
- Detect duplicate or fraudulent accounts.
- Protect the security and integrity of the Services.
- Investigate suspected misuse.
- Comply with legal obligations.
We will not use biometric information for unrelated purposes without appropriate notice or consent where required by law.
Biometric information may be processed by authorized service providers acting on our behalf. Those providers may have access only to the information reasonably necessary to perform their services and must handle it according to applicable contractual and legal requirements.
Biometric information will be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Specific retention periods may be described in a separate biometric-information notice.
6.CRIMINAL-RECORD AND BACKGROUND SCREENING
Where available and legally permitted, SAFEE MEET may use authorized third-party providers to conduct or provide criminal-record or background-screening information.
Screening may be subject to:
- Separate disclosures.
- Written authorization.
- Consent requirements.
- Identity-verification requirements.
- Applicable consumer-reporting laws.
- Accuracy and dispute rights.
- Restrictions on use, disclosure, and retention.
SAFEE MEET does not guarantee that screening information is complete, accurate, current, or available in every location.
A background-screening result does not establish that a person is safe, trustworthy, or suitable for a particular interaction. Users must exercise independent judgment and take appropriate precautions.
If applicable law gives you rights to access, correct, dispute, or receive additional information about a screening report, those rights may be exercised through the applicable screening provider or through the process described in the relevant disclosure.
7.SAFEE PIN CODES AND VERIFICATION STATUSES
SAFEE PIN codes may be used to help users identify or reference a SAFEE MEET profile or verification record.
A SAFEE PIN code is not:
- A password.
- A security clearance.
- A guarantee of safety.
- Proof that a person is honest or trustworthy.
- A substitute for independent judgment.
Depending on your settings and the Services you use, certain account or verification information may be visible to other users when you share your SAFEE PIN code or authorize a lookup.
You should not share your SAFEE PIN code publicly unless you understand the information that may be associated with it.
