BioPrivacy Impact Framework

Certain types of biometric deployments are more prone than others to lead to privacy-invasive uses, while other types of deployments have little if any bearing on privacy. Biometrics are neither a protector nor an enemy of privacy; instead, the type of deployment determines the relation between biometrics and privacy.

The BioPrivacy™ Impact Framework is a valuable tool in determining the potential privacy impact of a biometric deployment. Assessing a biometric deployment through the BioPrivacy Impact Framework illustrates the areas where greater risks are involved, such that appropriate precautions and protections can be enabled.

The following questions can help institutions evaluate potential privacy risks. 

• Overt vs. Covert

• Opt-in vs. Mandatory
