Division 1.3 Monitoring of biometric accuracy performance

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Biometric accuracy performance shall be measured on the actual data captured by each Member State based on a representative sample of cases on a daily basis at border crossing points of choice. The measurement is managed centrally, fully automated and does not require the access to personal data by the operator.

The measurement of biometric performance does not need to be done continuously: it may be disabled or enabled but shall be carried out by eu-LISA on a regular basis (at least monthly).

The measurement of biometric performance does not use biometric data itself. The templates of images used for the accuracy measurement are automatically deleted after execution of the evaluation process. All results of the performance measurement shall not contain personal information.
