Question 23904 — digital

Summary

Ms. Constance Le Grip alerts the Minister of the Interior to the announcement of the upcoming implementation of the ALICEM application (certified online authentication on mobile), developed with the National Agency for Secure Titles (ANTS), and which would allow access to 500 public service websites and applications by facial recognition, in particular those linked by agreement to FranceConnect. This application was authorized by the decree No. 2019-452 of May 13, 2019 with the aim of allowing holders of a biometric passport or a biometric residence permit to authenticate a digital identity, via a mobile phone equipped with a contactless reading device while complying with the requirements of the eIDAS high-level verification regulation. However, if the creation of an ALICEM account will not be compulsory and it will always be possible to carry out approaching a public service by other means, users will have to go through an automated facial recognition device. This mechanism will check whether the data of the biometric title corresponds to the information contained on the person's chip, with the exception of the digitized image of the fingerprints, which seeks to activate it, by asking him to carry out video tests, during which he will have to blink eyes, move your head and smile. In its deliberation no. 2018-342 of October 18, 2018, the National Commission for Information Technology and Freedom (CNIL) expressed its strong questions regarding the compatibility of the device with the provisions of the European regulation for the protection of personal data because users are obliged to accept the processing of their biometric data to use the service, which is contrary to the principle of collecting user consent. If users' recorded data will only be recorded on their mobile phone under their exclusive control, the CNIL recommends that, for consent to biometrics to be valid, the application provides another method of identification, such as a video call with an agent of the National Authority for Secure Titles (ANTS). She therefore wants to know what the The Government intends to implement on this subject, after the experimentation phase, and in particular if it intends to submit legislative changes to Parliament to regulate facial recognition techniques.
