Corrected which methods can return a date of birth

The Verification.Result reference described credit-card, social-security-number, and connect-id inaccurately with respect to dob. This is a documentation correction only: no API or product behavior changed.

What changed

In the Verification.Result event reference:

  • credit-card and social-security-number now appear under the methods that never provide dob, instead of the methods that can provide it. Both confirm an adult cardholder or identity record rather than reading a birth date.
  • connect-id was added to the same list. ConnectID confirms that the user meets the age threshold and returns no birth date, by design.

None of the three returns dob on the webhook or on GET /age-verification/get-status.

If you already handle an absent dob, nothing needs to change. If you built a code path expecting a dob from any of these methods, it wasn't reachable.
