Trust and identity verification are the platform’s differentiators — and the place where honest language matters most. Here is exactly what KONNOVA checks, what each badge means, and what it deliberately does not claim.
Verification is not one switch. Each level is a separate typed claim with its own provider, evidence reference, status and date — so confirming an email never implies an identity check, and confirming an identity never implies anything about money, ability or character.
| Level | Evidence | Member-facing status |
|---|---|---|
| 1 — Contact | Email and phone confirmed on the account | Contact Verified |
| 2 — Identity | Government ID, name match and a facial liveness check via a specialist providerUnlocks the blue check for a one-time $4.99. | Identity Verified |
Paid status is never visually or semantically confused with identity or contact verification.
The blue check. KONNOVA has verified this member's government ID and a live selfie through a specialist provider. A one-time $4.99 fee covers the check; documents are never shown to other members.
Email and phone have been confirmed for this account.
A recently created account with limited history. Not a warning — just a fact.
A booking or collaboration both sides confirmed as completed.
A paid membership. Never a trust, identity or credential signal.
Additional verification is in progress, or the item is queued for human review.
Unverified or flagged activity. Take care and confirm terms independently.
Identity Verified is a one-time $4.99. Government ID plus a live selfie, checked by a specialist provider, and the blue check appears on your profile as soon as it clears.
The fee covers the check itself and is non-refundable once the check has run. It never buys ranking, reach or trust beyond the fact it confirms. Your documents are stored privately, are never shown to other members, and are deleted after review except for the record that the check passed or failed.
“Identity Verified means KONNOVA has verified certain identity information. It does not represent an endorsement or guarantee that a user, opportunity or investment is legitimate, profitable or risk-free.”
Contextual warnings sit exactly where risk occurs — before accepting a booking, paying outside the platform, sharing private contact details, or opening an external link.
KONNOVA combines identity evidence, behavioural risk detection, action limits, recipient consent, human review, user education and an appeal route.
Consequential changes require clear confirmation and notify the owner through an independent channel. Suspicious changes get manual review, and emergency session revocation is always available.
Legal names, identity documents, financial information and private contact details are never public by default. Blocked members cannot message, follow, connect or view restricted information.
Public on your profile and in search.
Visible only to members who have completed verification.
Visible to people you have accepted a connection with.
Visible only to you.
Members can also report accounts, messages, opportunities, events and booking requests for scam, impersonation, fraud, harassment, spam or inappropriate content.
Automated signals plus trained human decision-making, with service-level queues for impersonation, financial scams, credible threats, harassment, minors, billing and ordinary content disputes.
An enforcement notice names the rule, the affected content or account, the duration and the appeal route — except where disclosure would itself create risk.
Consent records, privacy settings, downloadable data, account deletion, retention schedules and deletion propagated to processors. A deleted account does not silently remain discoverable.
Everything else on KONNOVA depends on knowing who you are dealing with.
