What does Biometric consent receipt mean?
A biometric consent receipt is the non-biometric audit record confirming a member read a BIPA-aligned privacy notice and granted opt-in permission before automated ID and liveness capture ran.
Modern biometric privacy frameworks require clear written disclosure and affirmative opt-in consent before any automated service compares facial geometry from a live camera check against a government ID photo. Rather than burying that step inside fine print, JoinTheSwing presents an explicit biometric notice and records a consent receipt before Veriff's capture session begins.
From the current Veriff check, JoinTheSwing never receives or stores raw ID images, selfie captures, or facial-geometry biometric data — we retain the verification result, Veriff's session reference, a consent receipt, and non-biometric review metadata. Members who verified through our earlier, retired in-house pass may still have ID, selfie, or couple photos in our private verification_documents storage, deleted when the account is deleted, and nothing writes to that retired store today.
Keeping that non-biometric consent receipt alongside Veriff's session reference from the current Veriff check lets the platform confirm transparent opt-in verification.

Find your people, at your pace.
New member registration, when available, will be on the website and in the native apps; digital membership purchases take place in the native apps via StoreKit 2 and Google Play Billing. Existing members can continue using the website. At launch, member identity verification will run through an automated government ID, biometric face-match and liveness check by Veriff: from the current Veriff check JoinTheSwing never receives or stores the images — we retain the verification result, Veriff's session reference, a consent receipt and non-biometric review metadata. Members who verified through our earlier, retired in-house pass may still have ID, selfie or couple photos in our private verification-document storage, deleted when the account is deleted. The free launch list does not create an account, start a subscription or charge a card.
