Don’t Let Your Privacy Rights Be Chipped Away!

Of course not. You know it is important to protect your and your family’s personal information.

But any time that tiny computer chips called Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags are included in California IDs, like drivers’ licenses, student badges, or medical and benefit cards, your and your family’s personal information can be at greater risk of being read and recorded without your knowledge.

Anyone with an RFID scanner can read the data stored on insecure RFID chips, from a distance, without you ever knowing, exposing you and your family members to the risk of tracking, stalking, and identity theft.
