Description

In this episode, David Elder and Danielle Miller Olofsson join Rachel Zuroff to discuss how Québec and other Canadian jurisdictions regulate the use of biometrics by businesses. While many organizations see benefits in the use of biometrics for efficiency and security purposes, regulators such as Québec’s Commission d’accès à l’information (“CAI”) have been actively investigating the impact of biometrics implementation on the privacy rights of citizens. As regulation in this area continues to evolve, businesses should be cautious about the adoption of biometric technologies to remain compliant with regulatory requirements.
