• the secure personal data sharing platform being configured for:
• receiving at the secure personal data sharing platform, a first user request to store a first user-data item in the verified digital identity;
• the first user request comprising a first user-data consent to receive and store the first user-data item as part of the verified digital identity on the secure personal data sharing platform;
• in response to receiving the first user request:
• receiving the first user-data item at the secure personal data sharing platform for the first user-data item, and
• processing the first user-data item to determine associated information of the first user-data item, the associated information comprising one or more of sender information, information of certificates and information on encryption and decryption;
• storing the first user-data item and the associated information on the secure personal data sharing platform as part of the verified digital identity, the associated information determining a verification status of the received first user-data item, the verification status for the first user-data item including un-verified user-data item or authenticated user data-item, wherein the status of authenticated user-data item is provided if the determined associated information confirms that the first user data-item is received from an authenticating party being certified for issuing the first user-data item;
