In plain words

As long as there is another way to get the same thing done, the other side can't require only a face scan. If you don't agree to a face scan, they have to offer another way, such as a card, a password or an ID card, and they may not pressure you by saying "then we can't handle your business." Face recognition equipment may not be installed in hotel rooms, public baths, changing rooms or restrooms, by anyone.
