Che è il caso che intervenga con urgenza il Garante.Sono sicuro che capiranno rapidamente che cosa sono i dati personali.
Credo che il Garante dovrebbe essere informato

Oggetto: Re: [nexa] Taggalo retail analytics Video+Wifi+Beacon in negozi italiani?

Pare confermata la notizia su Altrmercato, con alcuni dettagli.

Altromercato deploys new beacon sensors that take photos

Italian retailer Altromercato outfits its stores with sensors that are a
beacon, camera and Wi-Fi hub to learn who shops for what.

Although there are 300 Altromercato retail stores, each of the Italian
retailer’s locations varies in terms of what products it carries, the
store layout and even the size of the shop. Between the 300 locations
there are 100 owners, and the stores range in size from 50 to 300 square
meters, says Andrea Monti, general manager at Altromercato.
[]
Altromercato, which specializes in so-called “fair trade” products from
artisans and farmers in less-developed economies, recently put the
devices in two stores, one in Milan and one in Genoa.
The organization, a consortium of cooperatives and nonprofit
organizations, plans on deploying the sensors to a total of 10 of its
stores for a six-month pilot. Altromercato plans to have between five
and 10 sensors in each store. The devices will go in the store’s front
window or windows, at the front entrance and in a few aisles with
different types of products.
The camera on the device has facial recognition software that can
identify the age and gender of the person who has walked by it, and it
can record 18 faces at a time, says Paolo Guida, co-founder and investor
at Taggalo. The camera is about 90% accurate with its determination,
Guida adds.
The camera does not store any of the photos it takes. As soon as it
analyzes the face, it only stores the data, such as “22-year-old female.”
“We wanted to have something that would work in any country or any
geographic location regardless of privacy law,” Guida says.
Altromercato has a sign up in its stores alerting customers that it is
recording them, Monti says. Because it just set up the sensors,
Altromercato does not have any results to share.
Since the device can track how many consumers are walking by the store,
via a camera in the front window, and how many consumers enter the
store, via a camera at the front, Altromercato can gauge the
effectiveness of the front displays and how many consumers that could
have entered the store actually did.
If consumers connect to the Wi-Fi with their smartphone, Altromercato
will know how long that consumer is in the store and if that shopper has
been to the store before. These types of analytics will give
Altromercato a better sense of who their customer is at each location,
such as a majority of Altromercato shoppers visit the store four times a
month and stay in the store longer than first-time shoppers.
Altromercato does not yet have a plan to use the beacon technology in
the sensors.

Sembrerebbe dunque che il dato memorizzato che consente di rilevare se
il cliente è già entrato nel negozio sia l'imponta biometrica del volto
non più associata all'immagine dalla quale è stata estratta.
Inoltre risulterebbe che l'impronta biometrica sia presa anche di
passanti attraverso le vetrine, dunque sulla pubblica via.
Per Taggalo e Altromercato l'impronta biometrica del volto non sarebbe
dato personale.

Che ne dite?
