There is an approval process for photos entered into KidCheck so they do not show up immediately after being uploaded. The photos are reviewed and approved by KidCheck staff several times a day.

The photos are reviewed to ensure they are of an actual person and that they are not inappropriate in nature. The purpose of having a photo in KidCheck is for increased security (i.e. does the photo of the guardian match the person actually picking up the child?) so photos of animals, cartoons, or the back of someone’s head are not approved.
