To comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) when granting consent for IMVU to receive your documents for account verification, you may need to provide a handwritten letter of consent. This guide will help you draft a clear and legally compliant letter of consent.

Why Consent is Required:

IMVU, like many other online platforms, may need to verify your identity for various reasons, including security and compliance with legal regulations. To do so, we may request your consent to receive certain documents from you.

What to Include in Your Letter of Consent:

Your handwritten letter of consent should be concise and include the following key elements:

Full Name: Start by writing your full legal name, including your first name, middle name (if applicable), and last name. Ensure that your name is spelled correctly.

Consent Statement: Clearly state that you are granting consent to IMVU to receive specific documents for the purpose of account verification. Use straightforward and explicit language to express your consent.

Date: Include the date when you are writing the letter. This helps establish the timing of your consent.

Sample Letter of Consent:

[Your Full Name]
[Date: DD/MM/YYYY]

Consent Statement:

I, [Your Full Name], hereby grant my consent to IMVU to receive specific documents required for account verification. I acknowledge that this consent is given voluntarily and with the understanding of its implications.

Signature: [Sign your full name here]

Creating a Clear and Readable Picture:

After you've handwritten the consent letter, you'll need to create a clear and readable picture of it. Here are some tips:

Use Legible Handwriting: Write the letter in neat and legible handwriting. Avoid using cursive or overly decorative fonts.

Dark Ink: Use dark-colored ink (e.g., black or blue) to ensure the text is clear.

Good Lighting: Find a well-lit area to take a picture of the letter. Natural daylight or bright room lighting works best.

Steady Camera: If you're using a smartphone or camera to capture the letter, keep it steady to avoid blurriness.

High Resolution: Set your camera to capture the image at the highest resolution possible.

No Shadows or Reflections: Ensure there are no shadows or reflections that obscure the text.

Photo Tips:

• Use the rear/back camera of your phone to avoid taking an inverted photo. Inverted photos will not be accepted. 
• Ensure your fingers are not covering any details on your letter while taking a photo of it.
• Ensure that the entire content of the letter is visible in the photo.
• Blurred, cropped, and scanned photos will not be considered. 

By following these tips, you can ensure that your submission is accepted and processed without any issues.
