1. When this notice should be shown
This Notice is intended to appear immediately before a VettiGuard facial liveness, biometric enrolment or facial matching journey. It supplements the full Privacy, Biometric Information & Identity Verification Policy.
2. Short-form collection notice
Why we need this: The organisation requesting this verification is asking VettiGuard to confirm that a live person is present and, where enabled, to compare your face with an authorised enrolled identity or identity-document portrait for the specific purpose shown on this screen.
What is collected: VettiGuard may process camera images, facial characteristics, liveness signals, capture-quality information, a biometric template or comparison reference, verification outcome, session information and consent evidence.
Sensitive information: Biometric information used for automated verification or identification, and biometric templates, may be sensitive information under Australian privacy law.
How it is used: The information is used only for the stated verification, security, review, audit and lawful retention purposes described in the VettiGuard Privacy Policy and the requesting organisation's privacy notice.
Where it may be processed: VettiGuard is provided by Ikemba Tech in Australia and uses service providers in Australia and the United States. Information may therefore be stored or processed in the United States. Current material providers are listed in the Data Hosting & Subprocessor Notice.
Your choice: Where consent is the applicable basis, do not continue unless you understand and agree to the collection and use described above. If you cannot or do not wish to use this method, contact the organisation requesting verification to ask whether an alternative or assisted method is available.
3. Recommended consent control
Use an unticked checkbox or equivalent affirmative control:
I consent to VettiGuard collecting and processing my facial and biometric information for the verification purpose shown above, and I acknowledge that the information may be processed in the United States as described in the VettiGuard Privacy Policy.
The interface should link directly to the Privacy Policy and should display the requesting organisation's purpose before the user consents.
4. Consent evidence
VettiGuard may record a timestamp, notice/policy version, session reference and consent reference. The consent record should not contain unnecessary raw biometric material.
5. Withdrawal
Where consent can lawfully be withdrawn, withdrawal applies prospectively and may mean the biometric method cannot be completed. It does not invalidate processing already lawfully undertaken before withdrawal or information that must lawfully be retained.
6. Children and persons requiring assistance
Customers should not use this generic notice as the only basis for collecting a child's biometric information or where a person may lack capacity to consent. Appropriate guardian, representative or assisted-verification arrangements must be assessed for the context.
