Trust & controls

Consent at the point of trust.

Customers authenticate and approve access inside their bank or mobile wallet’s trusted channel. DataLink never receives their password, PIN or OTP secret.

The permission contract

Every request must make six things unambiguous before authorization.

RequesterWho wants access
PurposeWhy it is needed
ScopesWhich information
PeriodWhat date range
FrequencyOne-time or ongoing
DurationWhen access ends

Least data by design

DataLink retrieves and returns only what an active permission requires. Verification results are preferred over raw data where raw transaction details are unnecessary. Access after expiry or revocation is rejected.

Credentials never stored

Banking passwords, wallet PINs, OTP secrets, security answers and biometric templates remain outside DataLink.
