.Snapchat parent company to pay $35 million as part of Illinois privacy settlement

Snapchat's parent company, Snap, agreed to pay the settlement to resolve a class-action suit that claimed the photo-sharing app's filters and lenses violated the state's Biometric Information Privacy Act by collecting data without user consent. Now state residents may get a small payout if they have used the filters in the last seven years.Illinois residents who may have used the filters between Nov. 17, 2015, and Aug.

"While we are confident that [Snapchat lenses] do not violate BIPA, out of an abundance of caution and as a testament to our commitment to user privacy earlier this year, we rolled out an in-app consent notice for Snapchatters in Illinois," Boogaard said. Illinois is one of the most stringent states when it comes to data privacy and has previously penalized Big Tech for collecting an assortment of biometric-related data sources, from fingerprints to face scans. Google agreed to pay Illinois $100 million in June over allegations that its face-grouping software in Google Photos violated BIPA. Facebook's parent company, Meta, agreed to make a similar $650 million settlement with Illinois in 2021 over its facial recognition features.
