Sadly when you get to use their products they may ask you for Passport/ID and a selfie through kCheck[0] like they're a bank, as you can see at the app page[0].

In their website[1] you can read about their true "privacy" behavior:

> identity verification procedure may be triggered in the following cases (non-exhaustive list):

> - forgetting an Infomaniak account password (user account)

> - forgetting a login email address

> - deactivation of double authentication (2FA)

> - unlocking an Infomaniak account

> - during the first transfer of revenue for the product Ticketing

> - when ordering a product (suspicion of spam or fraud, brand name, etc.)

The same page also says the process may require mandatory geolocation, choosing ID card or passport, photographing the document, and taking a selfie with it.
