NH Government Biometric Law
active

Bars New Hampshire government agencies from issuing ID cards that require biometric data, requiring biometrics as a condition of service, or otherwise collecting or sharing biometric data, apart from employee and contractor access cards, public safety screening and grandfathered practices. It does not apply to private companies; private-sector biometric data is covered as sensitive data under RSA 507-H.
