$WLD FAQ

What is global ID?

World ID is a secure, permissionless identity protocol that allows millions of people to prove their humanity online while preserving their privacy.

How is the global ID issued?

In any wallet compatible with World ID, such as World App, the 1st wallet created for the Worldcoin project and developed by Tools for Humanity, a collaborator of the project.

The orb quickly takes, processes, and, by default, deletes images of the iris on the device to create an iris code, which is an alphanumeric representation of the iris texture. Unless there is explicit user consent, a message containing the iris code is the only stored result of this process.

Is the use of World ID linked to personal or biometric data?

World ID is designed to be used anonymously. It is not connected to the transactional wallet of its owner. Both are separate accounts with separate keys that serve different purposes.

Anyone can use World ID without providing personal information such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, social profiles, etc. Everything is optional and no personal information is disclosed.

A person's World ID is generated on their device before any biometric verification is performed. Biometrics are only used to verify a person's World ID and (if necessary) recover it, and the underlying biometric data is not shared with any third party when World ID is used.

World ID is neither a set of iris images nor the iris code generated from those images. Instead, the iris code that the orb generates is compared to all other generated iris codes.
