Alternatives to IDfy
Other Background screening vendors we measure, sorted by how much they publish that IDfy does not. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 24 that differ from IDfy on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
IDfy has 10 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Data location stated, Public pricing, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, No third-party tracking before consent, security.txt (RFC 9116), Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “publishes and IDfy does not” is the one that closes them.
