Is Amazon One Safe to Use?
Security is a major concern with any biometric payment system. Here’s what Amazon assures users:
- Palm Image Encryption: Your palm image captured through the app is encrypted and securely transmitted to Amazon’s cloud storage.
- No Image Storage on Devices: The app doesn’t store your palm image on your phone, minimizing the risk of data breaches on personal devices.
- Matching with Secure Templates: Amazon One uses your palm’s unique characteristics to create a secure template, not an actual image, for matching purposes.
