I will write a legally binding bipa biometric data consent form
Licensed US Tech and Privacy Attorney, Protecting Your Data and Business
About this Gig
Biometric data lawsuits are currently devastating businesses. Under laws like the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) and emerging laws in Texas and Washington, collecting fingerprints, facial scans, or voiceprints without explicit, written legal consent can result in fines of $1,000 to $5,000 per violation.
As a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #138324), I draft airtight Biometric Data Collection Consent Forms that protect your company from class-action liabilities.
What is included:
- Explicit disclosure of what biometric data is being collected.
- The specific purpose and use of the biometric data.
- A clear timeline for the retention and permanent destruction of the data.
- A legally binding signature/acknowledgment section.
Whether you use fingerprint scanners for employee time-tracking, or facial recognition for consumer app verification, you legally must have this document in place before collection begins.

FAQ
What exactly counts as Biometric Data?
Biometric data typically includes fingerprints, retina or iris scans, voiceprints, and scans of hand or face geometry (facial recognition).
Do I need this if I only have a few employees using a fingerprint timeclock?
Absolutely. Small businesses are frequently targeted by BIPA class-action lawsuits. You must have written consent on file for every single employee.
Is this compliant with BIPA (Illinois)?
Yes. My documents are heavily focused on satisfying the strict legal requirements of the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, which sets the national standard.
Can this be integrated into my app's terms of service?
Biometric consent must usually be a separate, explicit acknowledgment. The Consumer package provides the exact language to implement into your UI.
What do you need to draft this?
I just need to know what technology you are using (e.g., fingerprint clock, facial scan app), who the data is collected from, and how long you intend to keep it.
