Anthropic may require ID for Claude use. New policy allows age and identity verification.
Anthropic, the developer of AI model Claude, has updated its privacy policy to potentially require users to provide identification and biometric data for age and identity verification. This move is relevant for users of Claude in the EU and DACH regions, where the company must comply with strict data protection regulations.
As we have previously reported, Anthropic has been working to prevent misuse of its AI models, including accusations of illicit access by Alibaba. The introduction of identity verification is likely a measure to further prevent such incidents and ensure compliance with legal requirements. The new policy may raise concerns about data protection, particularly regarding the use of biometric data.
Users of Claude can expect changes in the way they access the AI model, potentially including the need to provide an official ID and a live selfie for verification. It remains to be seen how this new policy will be implemented and how users will respond to the increased security measures.
