This Biometric Data Privacy Disclosure (BDPD) outlines how Spokane
Firefighters Credit Union, our vendors, and/or the licensor of our member
verification software processes biometric data collected from you for identity
verification and fraud prevention purposes.
a. Biometric Data
Defined
As used in this BDPD, biometric data includes “biometric identifier”
and “biometric information.” “Biometric identifier” means a retina or iris
scan, fingerprint, voiceprint or scan of hand or face geometry. As the term is
used in this BDPD, the photograph you upload to the software for use in the
biometric algorithm is considered a “biometric identifier.” “Biometric data”
means any information, regardless of how it is captured, converted, stored or
shared, based on an individual’s biometric identifier used to identify an
individual.
b. Disclosure and
Authorization of the BDPD
To the extent that we, our vendors, and/or the licensor of our member
verification software collect, capture or otherwise obtain biometric data
relating to a member, we must first:
· Inform each member that we, our vendors, and/or the licensor of our member verification software are collecting, capturing or otherwise obtaining the member’s biometric data, and that we are providing such biometric data to our vendors and the licensor of our member verification software;
· Inform the member of the specific purpose and length of time for which the member’s biometric data is being collected, stored, and used; and
· Receive consent by the member authorizing us, our vendors, and/or our member verification software to collect, store, and use the member’s biometric data for the specific purposes disclosed by us, and for us to provide such biometric data to our vendors and the licensor of our member verification software.
We, our vendors, and/or the
licensor of our member verification software will not sell, lease, trade or
otherwise profit from members’ biometric data; provided, however, that our
vendors and the licensor of our member verification software may be paid for
products or services used by us that utilize such biometric data.
This BDPD is intended to comply with all federal, state, and local
laws.
c. Purpose for the
Collection of Biometric Data
We, our vendors, and/or the licensor of our member verification
software collect, store, and use biometric data solely for identity
verification and fraud prevention purposes.
d. Disclosure
We will not disclose or disseminate any biometric data to anyone other
than our vendors and the licensor of our member verification software
without/unless:
· First obtaining member consent to such disclosure or dissemination;
· The disclosed data completes a financial transaction requested or authorized by the member;
· Disclosure is required by law or ordinance; or
· Disclosure is required pursuant to a valid warrant or subpoena issued by a court of competent jurisdiction.
e. Security
We will use a commercially reasonable standard of care to store,
transmit and protect from disclosure any biometric data collected. Such
storage, transmission, and protection from disclosure will be performed in a
manner that is the same as or more protective than the manner in which we
store, transmit and protect from disclosure other confidential and sensitive
information, including personal information that can be used to uniquely
identify an individual or an individual’s account or property, such as genetic
markers, genetic testing information, account numbers, PINs, driver’s license
numbers and social security numbers.
f. Retention
We will retain member biometric data only until, and will request that
our vendors and the licensor of our member verification software permanently
destroy such data when, the first of the following occurs:
· The initial purpose for collecting or obtaining such biometric data has been satisfied, such as verification of member identity;
· Request of member to destroy the biometric data; or
· Within 30 days of member’s provisioning of biometric data.
g. Contact
Information
If you have any questions about our use, storage or security of your
biometric data you can contact us at:
memberservice@firecu.net.
2. Biometric Information Member Consent
As outlined in the BDPD, you understand and consent to the collection,
use, retention, storage, and/or disclosure or re-disclosure of data or images
from biometric verification technology by us, our vendors, and/or the licensor
of our member verification software. You acknowledge that you have been given a
copy of the BDPD, or that the BDPD has been made accessible to you, and you
have had an opportunity to review it and request any additional information
concerning our procedures and safeguards for collecting, maintaining, using,
disclosing, sharing, storing, and/or destroying this data.
