What is a prohibited action regarding collecting biometric identifiers for notarial acts?

The prohibition against recording biometric identifiers, such as fingerprints, primarily stems from privacy concerns and the sensitive nature of such data. In the context of notarial acts, keeping record of a person's fingerprint could lead to potential misuse or unauthorized access to an individual's biometric information. Notaries are expected to safeguard their clients' personal information, and collecting fingerprints would violate the principles of protecting sensitive data.

The other activities mentioned, such as recording a signature, collecting an email address, or taking a photograph, typically do not carry the same level of risk and are often part of standard notarial practices. Signatures are essential for verifying identity and consent in notarial acts, email addresses can be important for communication purposes, and photographs can serve as an additional form of identification without the same privacy implications that come with fingerprint collection.
