    There is no encryption involved. They just give you a token that verifies your age and you present the token to the site.

      But you have to submit evidence of age to some site, right? So where does that evidence (your ID) get sent to or stored? Once it’s sent, are you sure it’s not stored? Is the token unique or traceable to you?

      I honestly don’t know, and when I don’t know, I have to assume it’s not staying private.
