How does GlobaliD preserve my data/privacy?

GlobaliD protects your privacy and data through our verification system and industry-leading security practices. GlobaliD verifications are statements that describe something about you that an independent, third-party verification agency has verified to be true.

Using public-key cryptography, your private data is encrypted and stored in the GlobaliD Vault and can only be accessed or shared with your explicit consent. This means that your data isn’t being redundantly stored by each new service provider you choose, is only accessed on a need-to-know basis, and that these verifications of yours are portable since they can be used to verify your identity with other GlobaliD partners.

In the case of a partner data breach, your data is safe since they were never storing it themselves. That service provider can then request to delete your private data from the GlobaliD Vault. Nobody — including GlobaliD — can decrypt your personal data without your express permission.

Why do I need to connect or use GlobaliD with Roomi?

What is my GlobaliD name?

Just as every website has a domain name on the Internet, every person and entity can have a GlobaliD name. Since it will represent you like a domain in the world, please choose something you like.
