What Veriff's privacy policy and terms of service say about your data
Trains on real user data
The notice states that algorithms are built, trained and tested on training sets consisting of real data or anonymized data, and offers end-users no way to opt out of that use.

Personal data is kept "for as long as necessary" for the original purposes, with the actual period set in the contract with each customer and no number published for end-users.
Automated decisions with a human-review right
Verification can be fully automated, and the notice gives the right to an explanation of the engine's logic and to request human intervention or object to the decision at any time.
Security described only in adjectives
Protection rests on "various commercially reasonable measures (physical, technical, organizational)" with no encryption standard, access-control model or breach-notification deadline named.
