Although many believe that the concept of gathering biometric data is a recent phenomenon, it has been with us since the 1800s and some would argue, longer than that. With exponential advances in technology, companies and the government have the ability to collect and store our finger and palm prints, face and iris images, voice scans and in the near future, scan our heart rate and even be able to detect our gait. While there are many benefits to collecting and using biometric data, its use is increasingly fraught and regulated. Join us for an in-depth and fascinating analysis of these topics and more.

Topics

  • Background and origins of gathering biometric information
  • Understanding the Biometric Information Privacy Act and other state laws, related FTC guidance and why federal law is non-existent in this area
  • Reviewing recent court decisions
  • Achieving compliance especially when using third party vendors
  • Predictions for future developments and legal liability
