How is my fingerprint data stored?


Article Summary

Your actual fingerprint is not recorded and the system does not store any fingerprint images. Instead, the software extracts the unique features of each fingerprint and creates a mathematical representation, called a “fingerprint template”. This template can only be used to identify you for check in/out purposes. It cannot be used to recreate the original fingerprint. To further secure the template, it is encrypted. For these reasons there are no privacy issues nor any identity theft exposure.
