Verification without retention
What actually happens to my ID and selfie?
Verification is an automated document and biometric face-match and liveness check run by Veriff, a third-party identity provider — not by JoinTheSwing directly. Your government ID and a selfie go to Veriff for that check. JoinTheSwing never receives or stores the images themselves; we only ever get back a pass or fail result. It's the foundation every other privacy control on this page sits on top of.
What's yours to control
The full privacy architecture, held under your own account.
Zero-retention verification.
Your ID and selfie go straight to Veriff, our verification provider. JoinTheSwing only ever receives a pass/fail result — never the images themselves.
Private albums, revocable access.
Share photos selectively, per member, and pull that access back at any time — access isn't permanent once granted.
Approximate location.
Your profile shows an approximate area, not an exact address, so nobody can pinpoint where you live or work from it.
No public member directory.
There is no public, browsable list of members, and profiles are never indexed by search engines.
Because single membership is its own account type, every one of these settings is yours alone to configure — nobody else's decisions affect what you show or who can reach you.
On your phone
Does anything show up on my phone?
JoinTheSwing runs today as a progressive web app — nothing to download, and no app icon on your home screen unless you choose to add it yourself. There's no App Store purchase history, and no push notification that has to appear on a lock screen with identifiable content. Native mobile apps are in testing but not yet publicly available; when they are, this page will say so plainly rather than implying it's already true.
The honest answer
Can a coworker or someone from my personal life find my profile?
Profiles aren't indexed by search engines and there's no public directory to browse, so a coworker searching Google or scrolling a member list won't find you that way. What we won't claim is absolute undiscoverability — no platform can promise that nobody who is also a verified member could ever recognize you, and we'd rather say that plainly than promise something we can't guarantee. The realistic risk is genuinely low, and it's lower than on unverified platforms with public browsing, because there's no open directory for anyone to stumble across in the first place.
This page is for you if…
Privacy is a primary concern before you'll consider verifying or joining, and you want the specific, structural answer rather than a general reassurance.
