Concordium has joined the Age Verification Providers Association (AVPA), aiming to provide a privacy-preserving solution for age verification compliance. As new regulations like the Digital Services Act and Online Safety Act come into effect, platforms face stricter requirements regarding user age confirmation. Traditional methods collect sensitive personal data, exposing businesses to significant liability in case of breaches. The AVPA offers technical standards that allow platforms to verify users’ ages without requesting sensitive documents. Concordium will leverage zero-knowledge proof technology within these standards for secure verification – ensuring compliance without compromising user privacy.
