| Face and Data | Performs a biometric comparison of the user's selfie against the photo in the government record alongside identity attribute matching. |

| Face Match Override Data Score | Prioritizes the result of the face match check over the data verification score when determining the overall outcome. |
| Fingerprint Validation | Only relevant for Mexico. The minimum number of fingerprints that must match for the fingerprint validation check to pass. Default: 1. See INE Fingerprint Validation for more details. |
