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

This bill prohibits public and private entities in New Jersey from collecting, retaining, or sharing biometric data (such as facial scans, fingerprints, or voice recordings) without specific notice. It requires entities to post clear, plain-language notices at all entry points if they use biometric systems for identification. Violations carry civil penalties of $5,000 for a first offense and $10,000 for repeat offenses, with repeated violations (five or more in 30 days) classified as a fourth-degree crime punishable by up to 18 months in prison or a $10,000 fine. The law applies broadly to both government agencies and businesses, defining biometric systems as those using unique physical traits for identification.
