Certain types of Digital IDs require that we compare some of the information in your application to information contained in a APEX/ACH database. We do this in order to authenticate your identity and other attributes, and also to prevent identity theft. From time-to-time, we notify our subscribers of new products, announcements, upgrades and updates.
