Digital identification system

A non-transitory computer storage medium encoded with computer program instructions that when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, from a first device, location information indicative of a location of an owner of digital identification information and data indicating permission to share the digital identification information of the owner with an authorized third party;
• receiving, from a second device, a request for the digital identification information, the request comprising an identifier and location information indicative of a location of a requesting third party;
• verifying that the received request for digital identification information is a request for the digital identification information assigned to the owner by:
• comparing the location of the requester and the location of the owner, and
• determining the location of the requester and the location of the owner satisfies a threshold distance;
• and
• transmitting, responsive to verifying that the received request for digital identification information is a request for the digital identification information assigned to the owner, the requested digital identification information to the second device of the requesting third party.

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• receiving, from a first device, a request for digital identification information, the request comprising an identifier and location information indicative of a location of a requester;
• determining if digital identification information has been assigned to an owner of the identifier;
• responsive to determining that digital identification information has been assigned to the owner, receiving, from a second device, location information indicative of a location of an owner of the digital identification information;
• transmitting the requested digital identification information to the first device of the requester;
• and
• detecting that the first device has captured an image of the digital identification information;
• and
• sending, to the second device, an alert indicating that potential identify theft and unlicensed capturing of sensitive information has occurred.
