● Secure sign-in

Safe access with less data

VDB-ID lets people sign in securely without giving every website more personal data than it needs.

A connected website mainly needs to know one thing: may this VDB number sign in here at the requested security level? VDB-ID confirms only the needed level: low, medium or high. Names, addresses and extra personal details stay out of the partner website unless they are really needed and approved.

Three security levels

Low, medium and high allow a partner to request the right level of certainty without collecting unnecessary information.

Minimal data sharing

Outside the VDB number, the partner receives only the needed security level confirmation.

  • medium
  • high

Control for families

Child accounts are always linked to at least one parent. Parents can approve connections and payments through the VDB-ID app.

How secure sign-in works

1
🌐

A partner asks whether a VDB number may sign in.

3
🔐

Extra approval can be requested for children, payments or authorisations.

4

The partner receives only the necessary approval and the user returns safely.

Built around control

VDB-ID is not only a login button. It is an account environment where users decide who may act, what may be shared and which connected services may use their VDB-ID.
