Automated self-service U.S. Postal Service kiosks are taking and storing photos of users, according to documentation obtained by EPIC through a FOIA request.

  • Section 3.2.8 of the documentation states: “In order to augment security, a digital photo of the customer will be necessary for some transactions. A camera built in to the basic kiosk will be capable of generating a portrait style identification photograph of users while they are in front of the user interface screen.”
