The app required ID uploads ostensibly to verify that you were a woman signing up, men were not allowed to join for obvious reasons
Aside from the fact that it was stored in a public database, there's no need to store photos of the IDs at all. The account can just be marked as verified and move on.
Also I doubt that measure would keep a man out if he really wanted to join...
