All About Veriff

Before you can redeem rewards, we may ask you to verify your identity through our secure partner, Veriff. We do this to protect our survey community and prevent the use of fraudulent accounts. Here’s what you need to know about Veriff and how verification makes Valued Opinions a safer place.

What will happen to my information?

Veriff will use your ID strictly for verification purposes. As a default, it will be encrypted and stored with Amazon Web Services, which is located in the European Union. Amazon Web Services is fully GDPR-compliant. That means you can be confident that your data will remain confidential and secure.
