And this *might* mean that identification is possible from multiple angles and - potentially - to a higher degree of accuracy than with other data sources. TBC.
The DVLAâs privacy notice doesnât list the data types they process in any real detail. The relevant item for these purposes is merely âvisual imagesâ.
There is room for improvement here - I want to see a full list of detailed data types and the purposes for which each is processed.
Facial recognition using the DVLA database seems like an invasive step with unproven benefits.
The DVlA and the Passport office both capture images for renewals using a smartphone, which is quick and convenient for everyone.
But I *think* (itâs been a while since I used the system) they require a video to prove youâre alive and the person to whom the records apply. That also helps #FacialRecognition systems (if they keep the files).
Nothing like a DPA that works to protect personal information and privacy đ§đ”ïžđȘđșđ

In fact the main obstacle to #EU wide enforcement of the #GDPR is the Irish DPC. This is embarrassing and utterly unacceptable.
