Illinois music lovers, wanna see a concert? Sounds like you may have to surrender your BIPA protections.
Specifically, if the concert venue uses Ticketmaster (who doesn’t?), and if the concert venue captures your biometric data without your consent, you may not have legal recourse.
“These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of Live Nation and Ticketmaster’s websites and applications…
“The Terms contain an arbitration agreement and class action waiver—along with some limited exceptions—in Section 14, below. Specifically, you and we agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to the Terms, your use of the Marketplace, or products or services sold, distributed, issued, or serviced by us or through us, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court…
“By agreeing to arbitration, you and we each waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class action arbitration, except those already filed and currently pending as of August 12, 2025.”
