Security and privacy are our top priority
Bluink does not store your ID information.
To complete registration, your information is encrypted and sent to eID-Me's secure registration server for verification. Once verified, it is sent back to your phone and destroyed on the server.
Your information is only stored offline on your mobile device using strong encryption and your mobile device's security mechanisms. Only you have access and control over your information.
