MN SF31

Classifies automated license plate reader data as private data on individuals or nonpublic data under Minnesota Statutes section 13.82.

Requires data to be destroyed unless it identifies a stolen vehicle, corresponds to a warrant for arrest, indicates a suspended or revoked driver's license, or qualifies as active investigative data.

Mandates law enforcement agencies maintain a public log documenting reader locations, times of active data collection, and aggregate number of vehicles scanned during each use period.

Requires biennial audits by responsible law enforcement agencies to verify data has been properly classified or destroyed, with audit results (but not specific audit data) made public.

Prohibits law enforcement agencies from using automated license plate readers unless they have implemented policies and procedures to ensure compliance with these requirements.
