Data about phones near you does not reveal personal identities
When you are close to another phone running CLEAR, both phones use Bluetooth to exchange a Temporary ID. This Anonymized Temporary ID is generated by encrypting the User ID with a private key held by the Department of Information and Communication Technology (DICT). It can only be decrypted by DICT, and does not reveal your identity or the other person's identity.

The Temporary ID that your phone exchanges with nearby phones is refreshed at regular intervals. The lack of a persistent identifier means it is impossible for third parties to identify or track you.
