![Does the Orb store biometric data or biometric images?](https://worldcoin.ph/wp-content/themes/world/themer/assets/images/lazy.png)
No. The Orb takes images of a person’s face and eyes to ensure humanness and uniqueness. These images are not stored on the Orb but sent to the user’s device.
All that remains is a persistently encrypted iris code, a mathematical representation of the texture of the iris that is not linked to an individual’s wallet or World App account. Specifically, the iris fragment is split into multiple different secret fragments that are stored and encrypted across multiple secure databases.
