How is my data stored?
An advanced algorithm is used to extract specific fingerprint data captured
after a scan. This data is stored on an
ievo
Control Board using a unique
proprietary template format. The stored template is unique to an individual
and the template is only accessed for identification purposes by the
ievo
Control Board. The data cannot be accessed for any other purpose nor
can it be viewed using common software. The data CANNOT be used to
re-construct the original fingerprint image.
Who has access to my fingerprint image?
No one has access to a fingerprint image as images are not stored.
Once a fingerprint has been scanned, the original image is not stored or
recorded. The only stored information is the template constructed from
the key features of the fingerprint and is only accessed for identification
purposes by the
ievo
Control Board. The data cannot be accessed for any
other purpose nor can it be viewed using common software. The algorithm
is extensive in size and the template data cannot be reverse engineered to
recreate an image of the original fingerprint
Can my data be accessed and used for other purposes?
No, once acquired, a fingerprint template can only be referred to by
ievo
software (via the
ievo
Control Board) for identification purposes.
Algorithms:
ievo
systems use a cutting-edge Automated Fingerprint Identification
System (AFIS) algorithm for data enrolment, extraction and matching
processes.
