Public services like DigiD and eherkenning (erecognition) would also should be usable in online shopping, will protect the interests of the Thuiswinkel.org. The government should as soon as possible to start with a pilot identification age.

Thuiswinkel.org, an advocate for merchants with a private label, has done research into online identiteitsdiensten. The organization comes to the conclusion that the government with its web services similar requirements as online retailers, in the area of safety and quality. “In real life is the government responsible for the provision of persoonsdocumenten. Online is also a role,” says the advocate.

Not only would the government DigiD and eherkenning (erecognition) need to extend with other personal data, such as internet profiles, mobile numbers and bank cards, also find Thuiswinkel.org that the said public services should be usable ‘in the private domain of online shopping’. This would be through certified service providers have expired.

The first would be started with a leeftijdcheck, says the proposal. “There are a lot of online identiteitsdiensten, but none provides a legally valid leeftijdcheck. The government can help with a pilot”, says Wijnand Jongen of Thuiswinkel.org. According to Boy want online stores, for example, may also satisfy the identification obligation on the sale of alcohol and games.

If merchants can make use of verified data of clients this would be under other payment and leveringsfraude can occur. The chance is small, however, that the government DigiD and other private services accessible for third parties: the law prohibits this.
