Privacy Policy & Disclosure
BIOMETRIC INFORMATION PRIVACY POLICY
Porsche Lincolnwood has instituted the following biometric information privacy policy.
Biometric Data Defined
As used in this policy, biometric data includes “biometric identifiers” and “biometric information” as defined in the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, 740 ILCS § 14/1, et seq., (“the BIPA”) which regulates the collection, storage, use and retention of “Biometric identifiers” and “Biometric information.” “Biometric identifier” means a retina or iris scan, fingerprint, voiceprint, or scan of hand or face geometry. Biometric identifiers do not include writing samples, written signatures, photographs, human biological samples used for valid scientific testing or screening, demographic data, tattoo descriptions, or physical descriptions such as height, weight, hair color, or eye color. Biometric identifiers do not include information captured from a patient in a health care setting or information collected, used, or stored for health care treatment, payment, or operations under the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.
“Biometric information” 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. Biometric information does not include information derived from items or procedures excluded under the definition of biometric identifiers.
Purpose for Collection of Biometric Data
Porsche Lincolnwood maintains the keys to its vehicles for sale, for lease, and loaners as well as and the keys to customer vehicles in key cabinets for safe-keeping. Porsche Lincolnwood also maintains license plates within key cabinets. Access to these key cabinets is available by authorized Porsche Lincolnwood personnel only through a key login pad which allows entry through stored information relating to the fingerprints of those personnel. AS A CONDITION OF YOUR EMPLOYMENT at Porsche Lincolnwood, it is required that Porsche Lincolnwood optically scan your fingerprints through the keypad to allow access in order that Porsche Lincolnwood may track individuals entering the key cabinets to maintain control, accountability and the safety and security of Porsche Lincolnwood’s and the customer’s vehicles and the license plates. The fingerprint reader component of Porsche Lincolnwood’s biometric login key control is a computer based system that optically scans the fingerprint for purposes of identification. The computer system extracts unique data points and creates a unique mathematical representation used to verify the employee’s identity, for example here, when the employee accesses the key cabinets.
Porsche Lincolnwood obtains this Biometric identifier of you as described in this notice, which we handle as stated in this notice. As a valued employee, we want to ensure your Biometric identifier is kept securely and shared with the vendor only as authorized either by yourself or as allowed or required by law. This document explains our Biometric Policy and your signing this document authorizes Porsche Lincolnwood to use your Biometric identifier as described. PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO READ THIS ENTIRE POLICY.

- inform the employee in writing that Porsche Lincolnwood is collecting, storing, or otherwise obtaining the employee’s biometric data and that Porsche Lincolnwood may share this data with the vendor of Porsche Lincolnwood’s login key control system to the extent the vendor has access to the system for purposes of diagnostics or service of the system;
