By putting privacy first and using a novel approach to account protection, Changefly ID offers a path to a safer, more secure, and less-intrusive internet for everyone:
- Changefly ID for anonymous authentication + ANONYMIZED identity & age verification for services that are required to verify minimum age
- Zero-knowledge proofs, secure multi-party computation, temporary unique identifiers
- Protects against bot attacks, bot scraping, identity theft, phishing, credential stuffing, online tracking, and other evolving threats
Changefly ID + Anonymized Identity & Age Verification is like showing a bartender a “Yes, I’m over 21” hologram badge instead of handing them your driver’s license with your name, address, and birthdate. They get what they need—but none of what they shouldn’t have.
We’re just getting started and I’d love to hear what you think, what you’d like to see next, and any feedback you have.
>For example, our Third-Party Providers may verify your government ID when you register for Changefly Anonymized Identity Protection[1]
For identity verification, Stripe is our current data processor and undergoes annual audits. Your identity is first verified by Stripe, secondly reprocessed for privacy on Changefly, then immediately deleted.

This important information is not in your FAQ or your white paper. Not even a mention of identity verfication. Transparency is crucial, if you want trust.
Nevertheless, Am I not parting more of my data by giving Govt id to another third party(stripe) rather than just my email?

- Identity verification is OPTIONAL for Changefly ID. We chose to work with Stripe for government ID verifications because we can guarantee that after the verification and anonymization, your PII is verifiably deleted.
- Regarding using your email for logins and identity verification, that is no longer feasible in this day and age due to phishing, credential stuffing, account takeovers, scams, and the list goes on.
