Under the BIPA, private companies are prohibited from collecting biometric information unless (1) the person consents in writing and (2) the companies inform the person in writing of what data is being collected, for what purpose, and for how long. Besides the notice and consent requirement, the law also bans any company from selling or otherwise profiting from consumers’ biometrics.
