Prohibits collection of biometric identifier information by public or private entity under certain circumstances.

This bill prohibits most public and private entities in New Jersey from collecting, storing, or sharing biometric data like facial recognition scans, fingerprints, or voice patterns without specific notice. It directly affects businesses (e.g., retailers using facial recognition) and government agencies that use biometric surveillance systems. The key exception requires entities to post clear, plain-language notices at all entry points about their use of such systems. Violations carry civil penalties ($5,000 first offense, $10,000 for repeat offenses) and, for repeated violations (5+ in 30 days), could lead to criminal charges (fourth-degree crime punishable by up to 18 months in jail).
