AI Summary
This bill amends the Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) to clarify the applicability of changes previously made by Public Act 103-769. Specifically, the bill stipulates that the modifications introduced in that public act will apply retroactively to legal actions that are already pending as of August 2, 2024, as well as to any new actions filed on or after that date. BIPA is a state law in Illinois that protects individuals' biometric information (such as fingerprints, facial recognition data, or retinal scans) by regulating how private entities can collect, use, store, and share such sensitive personal data. By adding Section 98 to the existing law, the bill ensures legal clarity and consistency in how recent amendments to BIPA will be interpreted and applied in ongoing and future legal proceedings.
