Summary
Konfir collects only the information you choose to share to verify your employment or income. The data comes directly from the sources you connect - such as your bank, HMRC, payroll system, or uploaded documents - and is shared only with the organisation that requested your verification (your verifier).

Income information: Salary amounts and frequency for income verification
Self-employment records: Dates and income from uploaded SA302 documents
Employment gaps: Periods with no employment records found
