Worldcoin allows users to permanently delete iris scan data

Worldcoin has launched a new measure that allows users to permanently delete their iris scan data. The project states that this operation will be carried out after a six-month "cooling off" period. This update allows Worldcoin holders to better control their authentication. The project states that these measures were developed in consultation with third-party privacy and security experts, and based on preliminary assessments and questions raised by data protection agencies in certain areas where world currencies are available. The project also implements on-site age verification checks to prevent people under the age of 18 from registering.
