Can donor verification be performed without the donor's permission?

    Short Answer

    Verification of a publicly verifiable BDOI® Card or Impact Certificate may be possible through its official QR code or verification facility. However, accessing private donor records or information not made available for verification requires appropriate authorization.

    Detailed Explanation

    There is an important difference between verifying a shared recognition document and accessing a donor's private account information.

    For example, if a donor voluntarily shares a BDOI Humanity Score™ Card or BDOI Humanity Score™ Impact Certificate containing a BDOI® verification QR code, another person may use the provided verification mechanism to check the authenticity of that recognition record.

    That does not give the verifier unrestricted access to the donor's BDOI® account.

    Private or restricted donor information should remain subject to applicable BDOI® permissions and privacy controls.

    Key Points

    • Shared Cards or Certificates may be publicly verifiable where BDOI® provides that facility.
    • QR-code verification does not provide unrestricted account access.
    • Private donor information remains protected.
    • Verification and account access are different functions.

    ❤️ Motivation

    Transparency and privacy can work together—verify what is shared without exposing what is private.
