Anyone come across Verifly? I'm off on a cruise that doesn't leave the UK in a couple of weeks time and Viking want us to use this app to prove our Covid status. Now why would I want to give my mug shot, personal details and access to sensitive information to a foreign private company simply to go on holiday in the UK where I live? Makes a bit of a mockery of data protection

It is no big deal - all the cruise companies are being super extra cautious to get there industry back and going.
And so were looking at 'vaccine passports' to help deliver this.
Am sure many companies where you pass data are based abroad.
