Webinar | Processing biometric data (law)fully | Members

Biometric data is information collected on body measurements and calculations related to human characteristics through biometric technologies like facial recognition or fingerprint scanners. Controllers all over the world use biometric technologies for several reasons – whether it is to grant access to a facility or a system, or to survey or monitor people. Even manufacturers of smart devices leverage biometric technologies to enhance the security of their products making them more attractive to consumers to purchase.

We’ve all heard the saying “with great power comes great responsibility”.

Because biometric data is sensitive personal data, data protection laws in most countries have strict measures for controllers to follow to ensure that they process biometric data lawfully by protecting people from harm. Whether you are a controller, a manufacturer, a product developer, or an employee processing biometric data, you must process it lawfully.
