Biometric Data Disclosure Follow
The Biometric Data Disclosure and Authorization (BDD) form is required to acknowledge and authorize the collection and use of biometric data, such as fingerprints or face scans.
This form must be signed by an account administrator or supervisor:
- When setting up the account
- Periodically throughout the year
- After adding new employee biometric data
After an admin assists an employee at a time clock with adding a biometric template (face or fingerprint), the administrator will be prompted to review and sign the BDD form in the portal on their next log in. This form confirms that the administrator has obtained employee consent where required by law.
About Employee Consent
uAttend does not collect or track employee consent directly. A sample employee consent form is provided for guidance only; we strongly recommend that your HR or Legal Services team draft and manage your own policies to ensure compliance with applicable laws.
A Note on Compliance
In accordance with the slate of Biometric Data Compliance laws being enacted throughout the country, uAttend’s Biometric Data Compliance module is designed to support your compliance strategy. Use of this module does not constitute compliance. Your Legal and HR teams should oversee all biometric data policies.

FAQs
How often do I have to sign the Biometric Data Disclosure and Authorization (BDD) form?
The use of any biometric features will require periodically acknowledging this disclosure - every 30 days and when adding a new user or a user's biometrics.
Why is the signature line missing?
Check your browser zoom settings if the signature line is not displayed on the form. (Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + - (on Windows/Linux) or ⌘ + - (on Mac) to zoom in most apps and browsers.)
