<blockquote>
<p>Ontario’s Digital ID will use self-sovereign identity because it gives the holder control over the credentials in their wallet. In addition, we are layering on these extra privacy-preserving features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Consent – The verifier must ask you to approve their request to confirm your credentials.</li>
<li>Data minimization – The verifier can only access what they need to confirm you are eligible for their service. For example, if you need to prove that you are old enough to buy a lottery ticket, the store clerk would only know that you are 18 or older – not your actual age, birth date or anything else about you.</li>
<li>Anonymity – Your credentials are not tracked or traced.</li>
