How new biometric privacy rules will change what businesses must disclose
Manage episode 517332502 series 2456795
New Zealand’s Privacy Commissioner has issued new rules around the automated use of biometrics.
Biometric processing is the use of tech, like facial recognition, to collect and process people’s biometric information.
The Code comes into force on 3 November 2025, but agencies already using biometrics have until 3 August 2026, to align themselves with the new rules.
Today on The Front Page, Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster is with us, to take us through what all of this means, and how we can protect ourselves.
