Intelligence has been defined in many ways: the capacity for abstraction, logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Wikipedia

We can claim anything here.
members of Mensa could offer to give their membership number, so that at least other Mensanians could verify that. But it is personal infromation.
I have a certifed IQ, but that would be personal, too (and you wouldn't believe me anyway).
Famous saying: "IQ is what the IQ test measures"
