I want to get CLEAR but worried about giving my biometrics to a company (especially with all the hacking stories these days) - anyone else feel the same way or am I being paranoid?

Would anyone be able to read it to understand what your potential health implications are?

Something that's kept me from submitting DNA to some companies would be potential merging of companies or selling of information so that people who'd have access to mine could upcharge my health insurance if I have a marker for potential ; Alzheimers or cancer or something else. I see it as a very real possibility. (well idk about Clear... But maybe for 23&me)

Your biometrics are not fingerprints and such. It’s a hash value that is computed off measurements of your biometrics.

I have your data and I am you now. Please refer to me as Deloitte OP. If you'll excuse me, I need to write a birthday card, addressed to my mother's maiden name on the street where I grew up.

Someone has your data already it doesn’t matter. You can give your data or not but you aren’t exactly “protecting” yourself when you don’t give it. Unless you’ve never given your biometrics to any company ever...

Totally forgot about that. So there ya go it doesn’t even matter.

23andMe does the same

23andMe collects much more sensitive information than clear

Deloitte has the bigger problem of ensuring they are complying to all local laws on this matter.... also know your rights OP. They are just an employer I wouldn’t be in a hurry at all to provide any my personal data to them unless employment related

Clear is amazing. I don’t care if they have my data. Take it and my first born.

I guess I was just being paranoid, thanks all! Time to sign up for CLEAR!
