Illinois Residents - Have You Used Avoma To Take Notes Or Create a Transcript?

ILLINOIS RESIDENTS – RAISE YOUR ‘VOICE!’
You may be entitled to SUBSTANTIAL COMPENSATION!

Are you an Illinois Resident? Have you used Avoma to take notes or create a transcript for a meeting at any time in the past five (5) years? If yes, you may be entitled to substantial compensation!

Join Class Actions & Siri & Glimstad LLP are investigating potential violations of the law due to improper use of AI software to record and prepare notes and transcripts for video calls.

The 2008 Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) prohibits a business from collecting or obtaining a person’s biometric information – including fingerprints and “voiceprints” – without first obtaining written consent and providing written notice of the company’s biometric data collection, retention, and storage practices.

In recent years, BIPA cases mainly targeted fingerprints and facial geometry as captured by retailers, employers, and other large companies. You may be familiar with major BIPA settlements such as Six Flags, Snapchat, and Facebook, all of which settled large class actions for alleged fingerprint and/or facial recognition biometric violations.

Our attorneys are now looking away from fingers and faces and are looking toward VOICES. Many companies use voice recognition technology to identify a person through their voice. This is done via a voiceprint, which is created by taking a customer’s past verbal communications with a company and creating a “print” of their voice. Each “print” is just like a fingerprint – unique to a specific individual. Anybody with a copy of this voiceprint can potentially use it to recognize the person when they speak. This is why Illinois requires notice and a written release before collecting the person’s voiceprint.

SO, ILLINOIS, ARE YOU READY TO RAISE YOUR ‘VOICE’ AND SEE IF YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO COMPENSATION? If you have used Avoma any time in the past 5 years, fill out the form on this page! There is no out-of-pocket cost for representation.
