Incode Technologies Inc. reaches $4 million settlement in BIPA privacy class action

2024-11-19  Per Henrikson

The BIPA class action lawsuit alleged Incode Technologies collected individuals’ biometric data without complying with regulations. Illinois consumers who uploaded their selfies and photo IDs were not aware Incode Technologies collected their biometric data due to a lack of notice and disclosures, the plaintiffs contend. The Incode Technologies settlement benefits individuals who uploaded a selfie and photo ID to any application, software or website an Incode Technologies customer operated between Nov. 11, 2018, and Aug. 5, 2024, without first signing an Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act disclosure.
