Cvent, an event management software company, joined forces with ID.me, a secure digital identity network, to create Cvent Health Check, a solution designed to bring seamless health, testing and vaccine status verifications to hybrid and in-person events in the U.S.
Cvent Health Check seeks to help Cvent users include additional health and safety protocols at their events with easy-to-use, confidential health checks on event attendees’ mobile devices to ensure attendees meet requested health criteria. Specifically, event organizers can:
- Set parameters around attendees’ proof of vaccination, testing status and/or health screening in a privacy-compliant manner;
- Give individuals sole control over their personal medical information to determine when, how and with whom it’s shared; and
- Easily check credentials through a digital image displayed on a user’s mobile device at the event.
“As health and safety remain top priorities for event planners and attendees alike, reliable and secure solutions like health or vaccine verifications are critical,” said Patrick Smith, CMO of Cvent, in a statement. “We’re pleased to combine ID.me’s proven technology and strong commitment to user data privacy with our event marketing and management platform to enable a more customer- and safety-centered approach for in-person event experiences.”
No user information is passed between ID.me and Cvent, allowing for individual privacy and control while also ensuring event planners and organizers are not storing, accessing or distributing sensitive attendee health data.
