itsme and Apple Sign In

Hi,

We currently have in our application homemade authentication system. We are planning on integrating itsme ( https://www.itsme-id.com/en-BE/business/developer ) as an authentication system in our app (more infos: https://belgianmobileid.github.io/doc/ ). itsme is an official Belgian digital identity provider, which provides a platform to quickly and effortlessly identify a user on a website or an application. It is widely used across Belgium (our target market) as a e-ID to authenticate users: https://www.itsme-id.com/en-BE/business/industries/government

In regards of this part of the documentation https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#login-services : I understand that our use case with itsme complies to the following exception: "Your app uses a government or industry-backed citizen identification system or electronic ID to authenticate users"

Can you confirm me that this is the case and with the documentation linked above to assess that my understanding of the itsme product in regard to the Appstore guidelines, we don't need to implement Apple Sign In?

Thank you in advance. Kind regards
