🔒 Your data is safe: When verifying your age, we only receive confirmation of whether you are over 18 — we do not receive photos or ID document data.
Protecting your personal data is extremely important to us. For age verification, we therefore work with Yoti, an internationally established provider of secure digital identity and age verification solutions.
Yoti is used worldwide by companies and government institutions to perform secure, privacy-compliant, and user-friendly age checks.
The verification process is carried out directly through Yoti’s secure infrastructure.
Our system never receives access to your full ID details or facial data.
In most cases, we only receive the result of the age check, for example:
“Age successfully verified (18+)”
