VeriMeZK is designed with privacy and security safeguards for every stage of the verification flow.

• Client-side execution: No backend services or persistent storage are required.
• Zero-knowledge by default: Proofs disclose only the verification result.
• No tracking: Analytics, cookies, and fingerprinting are intentionally excluded.

• Liveness detection guards against presentation attacks.
• Biometric matching validates that the live user matches the document image.
• Document authenticity checks flag cloned or tampered passports and IDs.

• All processing remains in the browser.
• No uploads, logs, or cloud storage are involved.
• Only proof artifacts, never raw identity data, leave the user's device.

• The codebase is open-source for community review.
• Smart contracts support independent auditing before deployment.
