Our Privacy Policy lists every other service that processes personal data on our behalf, and what each one receives.
What this service is
WhoseID is a verification service for online creators. We check that a social media account genuinely belongs to the person claiming it, publish a page listing the accounts that passed, and give fans a way to report accounts that impersonate someone.
We attest what we have observed. We never declare an account to be an impersonator, and anything a fan tells us is passed on as that fan’s statement, marked as such.
Card payments and payouts are handled by Stripe. WhoseID is not a payment institution, it never holds your money, and no card number or bank account number reaches our systems.
Intellectual property
The WhoseID name, logo, wordmark, page designs, written content and software are protected by copyright and trademark law. You may not copy, adapt or reuse them without written permission, beyond what the law allows.
What you upload stays yours. Photos, videos, text and links you publish on your page remain your property, and you grant us only what running the service requires: storing your content, showing it on your public page, and computing the fingerprints that let us find copies of it elsewhere. That permission ends when you delete the content or close your account.
Reporting illegal content
Anybody can flag content on WhoseID, and we never ask you to prove who you are before we read it.
- To report an account impersonating someone, use the report form.
- To report a listing on the promotion marketplace, use the report link on it.
- For anything else, such as a creator page, a published post or a name, write to contact@whoseid.io with a link and a short explanation of what is wrong with it.
Every report is read by a person. The report form is anonymous and holds no way of reaching you, so if you would like an answer, send your report by email instead. Where we act against an account or a listing we tell its owner why, in writing. Our Terms set out how that works and how to contest a decision.
Complaints and disputes
Please write to contact@whoseid.io first. Most problems turn out to be a misunderstanding and we would rather fix one than argue about it.
If you are a consumer in the European Union and we cannot reach agreement, you can take the dispute to the European Commission’s online dispute resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. That does not affect your right to go to court.
French law applies and the French courts have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory rules of the country where you live.
