Can I collect driver's license numbers from participants in Idaho? What are the requirements?

Idaho Driver’s License Collection Requirements

In Idaho, collecting driver’s license numbers from participants is allowed under certain circumstances. According to the Idaho Administrative Code, personal information, including driver’s license numbers, can be collected if it is necessary for the administration of a program or activity authorized by law ^[3].

However, it is important to note that the collection of driver’s license numbers is subject to the Idaho Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) ^[2]. PIPA requires that any entity collecting personal information, including driver’s license numbers, must provide notice to the individual about the purpose of the collection and how the information will be used. Additionally, the entity must take reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality and security of the information collected ^[2].

Therefore, if you plan to collect driver’s license numbers from participants in Idaho, you must ensure that it is necessary for the administration of a program or activity authorized by law and that you comply with the requirements of PIPA.

Conclusion

In summary, collecting driver’s license numbers from participants in Idaho is allowed if it is necessary for the administration of a program or activity authorized by law and if the requirements of PIPA are met.
