Abstract: A system and method are used bi-directional authorization as a security precaution during exchange or transactions of any kind. Identification data (e.g., biometric data, a universally unique identifier (UUID) data, or the like) is authenticated from a first object (e.g., a guardian, a requester, a consumer, a governmental official, a law enforcement official, or the like) and, if verified, then from a second object (e.g., a child, a requestee, a private citizen, a detainee, a product provider, a service provider, or the like). If both sets of identification data are authenticated, then an exchange or transaction for information, people, service, products, or things can take place. In some cases, information about the exchange or transaction is stored locally or remotely to possibly prepare a statistical analysis (e.g., if a law enforcement official is using racial profiling, or the like).
