CAPTURE: https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/ca7/21-1107/21-1107-2021-08-11.html Sosa v. Onfido, Inc., No. 21-1107 (7th Cir. 2021) :: Justia Full Name: Fredy Sosa v. Onfido, Inc. | Docket: 21-1107 | Date: August 11, 2021 Justia Opinion Summary: Onfido provides biometric identification software incorporated into customers' products and mobile apps for verifying users' identities. Onfido partnered with OfferUp to verify users' identities. Sosa verified his identity with OfferUp using Onfido's technology (the TruYou feature), uploading a photo of his driver's license and of his face. Sosa alleges Onfido then used biometric identification technology without his consent to extract his biometric identifiers and compare the two photographs. Sosa brought class-action claims under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act. Onfido moved to stay and compel individual arbitration based on OfferUp's Terms of Service arbitration provision. The district court rejected each of Onfido's nonparty contract-enforcement theories and denied the motion. The Seventh Circuit AFFIRMED: Onfido failed to establish an outcome-determinative difference between Illinois and Washington law; under Illinois law Onfido was not a third-party beneficiary of the Terms of Service and could not enforce the arbitration provision as OfferUp's agent or on equitable-estoppel grounds.
