FTA: “In both cases, users would be able to confirm that their age is over 21 without having to also share personal information like their name, address or birthday. Apple said it can’t see when or where a user presents their ID or what data was shared. Plus, users don’t have to unlock their phone or hand it over to present their ID, as it works just like Apple Pay.”
