Contactable is a new technology that allows individuals to fully control who has access to their data, providing organisations with KYC, Sanctions, whilst complying with GDPR, ISO 27001.
How the solution demonstrates 'privacy by design':
Contactable's solution is designed with the owner of the personal data in mind, allowing them to be in control of who has access to their data, all the time.
1) We specify why we require information and users have to consent.
2) We only collect what is absolutely required to complete the process
3) Information is retained in compliance with regulations (in country, GDPR)
4) Our data is FIPS-2 level 3 and ISO 27001 compliant. We only use HTTPS, with triple encryption, using only service providers that are also ISO 27001 compliant.
5) We take utmost care of personal information, employing personal with excellent credentials.
6) We have strict policies and procedures and are audited against these.
7) Our processes are accurate and only fulfil the process's requirements.
How the solution can be incorporated into digital identification systems:
With our API, organisations can integrate with our solution and provide seamless integrated solutions.
Our APIs are triple encrypted, being FIPS 140-2 level 3 and ISO 27001 compliant.
Our solutions are white-labelled, and organisations have access to user's personal data (with their permission of course) either on our portal or integrated into their own systems.
How the solution is 'user-friendly':
Users can use our system in 4 steps.
1) Scanning their ID / Drivers license or Passport

How the solution accounts for low connectivity environments and for users with low literacy and numeracy levels:
We allow for low connectivity by not sending unnecessary data to or from the cellphone.
Our solution is designed for easy usage. Our apps or offered in native languages, use easy to use functionality, such as taking photos, selfies, and simple selection options.

We are a platform that charges clients per transaction. A transaction is where an individual is "on-boarded" / screened for KYC, Sanctions, FICA / FAIS, etc, whatever the local law or regulation requires.
Our pricing ranges from as cheap as $ 0.02 per transaction, depending on the complexity of the transaction.
Reason for applying to the Mission Billion Challenge:
We believe we have the ultimate solution to help solve the identity problems we currently face globally, without compromising on privacy or security, but making identities shareable.
The World Bank Group’s vision to realise the potential that exists in digital identities , aligns with our vision, especially in the industries identified.
The power and reach that exists within the World Bank Group, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Omidyar Network and the Australian Government are paths that can speed up both the ID4D and Contactable's visions.
Key barriers to the solution:
Our main challenge is distribution, partnering with programmes / companies that can place our international solution in the hands of billions.
