The company consulted with the Austrian data protection authority to address privacy and data security concerns. Worldcoin’s ID verification process involves an iris scan and does not collect additional personal data. Friederike Lumbroso-Baumgartner, general manager at Tools for Humanity for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, emphasized the importance of quick access to World ID. Austrian residents can become Worldcoin ambassadors to help spread awareness and understanding of the project. Worldcoin Expands in Europe Amid Regulatory Scrutiny and Security Enhancements Worldcoin’s launch in Austria follows a similar introduction in Germany. The Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA) previously investigated Worldcoin’s biometric data collection. Worldcoin has also faced regulatory challenges in Spain and Hong Kong, where operations were paused due to privacy concerns. Despite these issues, Worldcoin continues to work towards compliance with local regulations. The company has enhanced security measures by open-sourcing its biometric data system and allowing users to delete old iris codes. In Kenya, operations resumed in June 2023 after local authorities concluded their investigation. Official statement from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
