'Non-identifying information' does not identify the person about whom the information is sought, this can include age of birth parent(s) and place of birth. CODE 2 Contact and identifying information veto A veto is a legally binding process by which a person can prevent another party to the adoption from making contact and/or restrict the release of identifying information about themselves. |
