If we are unable to identify you from the communications we receive or have reasonable suspicions about your identity, we may ask you to provide proof of identity. Only in this way can we avoid disclosing your data to a person who may impersonate you, i.e. the identification process is carried out in your best interests. Any additional information collected for verification purposes will only be used to confirm your identity.
