For individuals concerned about privacy or the potential misuse of their fingerprint, it’s important to understand that biometric fingerprint readers do not store or replicate the actual fingerprint. Instead, these devices capture and analyse up to 100 unique reference points from the fingerprint.

These reference points and their spatial arrangement create a unique pattern that identifies the registered user. Importantly, it is not possible to reconstruct a usable fingerprint from these reference points. The resulting numerical codes and patterns derived from your fingerprint image are specifically designed for access control and have no practical use outside that context.
This means that law enforcement, hackers, or thieves cannot exploit the stored pattern. If someone were to attempt to compare this data with a criminal database, it would yield no results, ensuring the privacy and security of your biometric information.
