Suppose you are at a business conference or a coffee shop and want to share your identity digitally. In that case, you can do it quickly and effortlessly with your smartphone – instead of handing out business cards or your phone number. Or you may be making a delivery and need to prove that you work for a specific company. Or you are remotely applying for a job and want to prove your identity to someone on the other side of the world. Or you are a salesman who sends introductory emails and wants to ensure the recipients trust your identity.

Whatever the case, you are always in complete control of your ID data – you choose which ID data details will be visible and to whom. Maybe you want to share your first name (and not your last name). Or share the name of the company that you work for. Or perhaps you are buying alcohol, and you want to share that you are older than 18 without sharing your date of birth. Selectively sharing your identity data as you decide is one of the core security concepts of your Identyum digital identity profile.
