Summary

Identity data lakes centralize large volumes of personal information to support customer onboarding, personalization, fraud detection, and other services, but their use creates significant GDPR obligations because they often contain sensitive identity and biometric data. A compliant approach requires a documented lawful basis for processing, meaningful and withdrawable consent where appropriate, data minimization, purpose limitation, mechanisms for data-subject rights such as access and erasure, and strong governance. Recommended technical measures include encryption, least-privilege access controls, pseudonymization or anonymization for analytics, data inventories, automated retention and deletion processes, consent-management systems, and regular data protection impact assessments. Using the example of a financial institution, the material emphasizes that systems must securely manage identity records throughout their lifecycle while balancing deletion requests against legal retention duties. It also presents Didit as a platform designed to support these practices through centralized identity verification, privacy-focused biometric handling, configurable retention controls, and compliance-related certifications and infrastructure.
