Abstract

Some implementations of the technology relate to anonymizing personally identifiable information (PII) by creating a quick response (QR) code linked to a website that can verify that driver's license information and insurance information of a driver is available and valid, without showing the PII itself. Some implementations can allow another driver in an automobile accident to scan the QR code, enter her own insurance information, and can push the driver's PII to her insurance company. Some implementations can allow the other driver to download an encrypted file with the PII that can be shared with his insurance company. The QR code can be used in other contexts outside of automobile accidents as well, such as when a driver wishes to test drive a car, rent a car, buy a new car, etc., and needs to provide proof of a valid driver's license and insurance coverage.
