I have been given a letter by my son's school telling me that come Easter, it will be compulsory to use ParentPay's biometric system for all school purchases, including meals. This means there will be an outside company who will now have to fingerprint my son and contain his, and my financial and personal, details in order to work. There has been no hint that this was on the cards, it was just presented as a done deal, without any consultation with parents beforehand.
Does anyone else find this completely creepy and frightening? Is anyone else using this system that can tell me anything about this company? How long before this method will be used for registration?
