I also note that:

"ORCID uses OAuth to support authentication of the relationship
between an individual and an ORCID record.  When an individual creates
a record, ORCID sends a verification email to that in the record.  If
a record is created by an individual's employer, ORCID will send a
claiming email to the individual.  In both cases, OAuth is used to
authenticate the claim."
