Identity verification

No creator publishes content or receives payment on Secretto before completing verification. This page describes exactly how the process works.

The three required elements

An official photo ID document, to confirm name and date of birth.

A selfie holding that document, to tie the face to the document presented.

A live video showing a code generated at the time of recording. This is the element that makes old recordings, or someone else material, useless: the code only exists at that instant.

How the review happens

The team compares the three elements against each other and checks the date of birth before approving.

Rejected verifications can be redone. Attempted fraud leads to a permanent account block.

While verification is not approved, the account does not publish content and does not receive payment.

What happens to the documents

Verification records are held under restricted access by the compliance team and kept for the period required by applicable law.

They are not shown to other users, do not appear on the profile, and are not used for any purpose beyond confirming identity and age.

They are sensitive personal data under the LGPD, Brazil data protection law, and are treated accordingly.

Third parties appearing in content

Content featuring people other than the verified creator requires proof of age and consent from each participant.

Without that proof, the content is removed.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Secretto ask for a live video and not just a photo?

The video shows a code generated at the time of recording. That prevents anyone from using an old recording or someone else material, which a photo alone cannot guarantee.

Is my ID document visible on my profile?

No. Documents are held under restricted access by the compliance team and are never shown to other users.

Can I redo verification if it is rejected?

Yes. Rejected verifications can be redone. Only attempted fraud leads to a permanent block.
