személyazonossági

Személyazonossági is an adjective in Hungarian, used to describe anything related to a person’s identity or the process of identifying a person. It is formed from a combination of szemé ly (person) and azonosság (identity) with the suffix -i, yielding a modifier that points to identity-related aspects.

The term appears most often in compound phrases such as személyazonossági adatok, személyazonossági ellenőrzés, and sein systems used for identity management. Személyazonossági adatok refers to information that can identify an individual (for example name, date of birth, address). Személyazonossági ellenőrzés denotes the process of verifying someone’s identity. In technology and privacy contexts, the adjective commonly describes topics linked to authentication, access control, and identity verification workflows.

The word is closely related to, but distinct from, other Hungarian forms such as személyazonosító, which also means identifying or identification but is used in different conventional expressions (for example személyazonosító szám, personal identification number, or személyazonosító igazolvány, an identification document). In practice, szemé lyazonossági is used to signal identity-related attributes or operations, while személyazonosító tends to name specific identifying tools, numbers, or documents.

In summary, személyazonossági serves as a general, neutral descriptor for matters connected to personal identity and the authentication process, commonly appearing in legal, administrative, and IT privacy contexts.
