Missouri ID Scanning Laws and Regulations
Missouri’s Compliance with the Federal REAL ID Act
According to Missouri Revised Statutes Section 302.170, the state has implemented procedures to comply with the goals and standards of the Federal REAL ID Act of 2005. This Act, among other things, sets standards for the issuance of sources of identification, such as driver’s licenses.
The Department of Revenue in Missouri issues driver’s licenses or identification cards that are compliant with the Federal REAL ID Act of 2005 to all applicants, unless an applicant requests a driver’s license or identification card that is not REAL ID compliant. The department informs all applicants about the option of being issued a REAL ID compliant driver’s license or identification card or a driver’s license or identification card that is not compliant with REAL ID.
Biometric Data and Privacy
The Missouri law is explicit about the protection of biometric data. It prohibits the Department of Revenue from using, collecting, obtaining, sharing, or retaining biometric data to produce a driver’s license or nondriver’s license or to uniquely identify licensees or license applicants. This includes data such as voice data, iris recognition data, retinal scans, fingerprint, palm prints, hand geometry, characteristic gait or walk, DNA, and keystroke dynamics.
The law also emphasizes the protection of privacy rights of its citizens. Any data derived from a person’s application shall not be sold for commercial purposes to any other organization or any other state without the express permission of the applicant without a court order.
Violations, Civil Damages, and Criminal Penalties
The law provides for civil damages and criminal penalties in case of violations. Any person harmed or damaged by any violation of this section may bring a civil action for damages, including noneconomic and punitive damages, as well as injunctive relief, in the circuit court where that person resided at the time of the violation or in the circuit court of Cole County to recover such damages from the Department of Revenue and any persons participating in such violation.
