ADA Privacy Requirements
In regard to ATMs, the new 2010 ADA requirements require the all ATMs “provide the opportunity for the same degree of privacy of input and out available to all individuals.” If you think like me, the first question that pops into your head is “what does that mean?” Not sure but the best way to deal with this requirement is to be sure that the speech output capabilities of the ATM, when activated, cause the screen to turn blank. This feature will protect you under the privacy requirements set forth in the ADA.
