Every biometric scan gets a receipt.
When a regulator, an employee, or a court asks what happened, you have something to hand over. Each scan becomes one record with consent, purpose, and timestamp.

For the person scanned
You were scanned. Receipt R-2026-04-3019-7 · Pioneer Air · Apr 30, 2026. Verify at clavira.com/verify/R-2026-04-3019-7.
Made to hand over. Part of every record is written for the person who was scanned. What happened, when, and where to check it. It comes away from the rest, and the rest stays with the operator.
Coverage
Built for the laws you actually face.
Four statutes, four kinds of evidence the receipt produces.
The architecture is built for the next ones: Massachusetts, Missouri, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, Pennsylvania.
Comprehensive state privacy laws with biometric provisions (CA, CT, VA, OR, DE, MD, MN, and others) share the same evidentiary pipeline. Current as of June 2026.
BIPA 740 ILCS 14/15(a)(b) | Consent + retention evidence |
CUBI Tex. Bus. & Com. Code §503.001(b) | Notice + consent evidence |
Biometric Identifiers Act RCW 19.375.020 | Pre-enrollment authorization |
Privacy Act §6-1-1314 (per HB 24-1130) | Purpose-at-capture + retention |
Evidence from the record
What the courts have decided.
Three numbers from the public record. Why biometric evidence is now a board-level exposure rather than a paperwork problem.
White Castle put its own potential liability near $17 billion, from a fingerprint clock-in its employees had to use to get paid. Illinois capped that math in 2024 and the Seventh Circuit applied the cap to older cases in 2026. Numbers like that force change, and the records you have to produce outlast every version of the law.
Meta settled with Texas under CUBI for $1.4 billion in July 2024. It is the largest privacy settlement ever paid by one company to a single U.S. state.
