Abstract
This present patent application discloses a card cover. The card cover comprises of a front and a back panel including various gray-out and transparent portions. The card cover provides users with a privacy cover for identification cards, debit and credit cards, and more, and maintains privacy for the user, preventing personal information from being revealed to unauthorized individuals when using the card. The device features several ‘gray-out’ portions on the cover to protect information on the card and ensures bystanders, retail employees, and the like are unable to view specific information, preventing identity theft and other dangers involving personal information. The transparent portion shows the non-confidential information present on the card for easy access of the card.
