Processes biometric data, in Iceland

Log nr. 90/2018, Art. 3, item 3, point (e), Art. 9, Art. 11 · Read the law's page

• Before processing biometric data of a person in Iceland to identify that person uniquely, including a faceprint, meet one of the lawful bases in Act No. 90/2018 Article 9 and one of the further conditions in Article 11, such as the data subject's explicit consent.
• Do not assume voice capture is excluded from the biometric-data definition in Article 3, item 3, point (e) merely because the Act's illustrative examples name only facial images and fingerprint data; the definition's own operative test is specific technical processing for unique identification, not the modality named as an example.
