CAL-FIN 13082
CAL-FIN 13082 specifies procedures and requirements for POS (Point of Sale) terminals, including installation, maintenance, or security protocols. Independent Accessibly POS Terminals are required as well as Tactile (Real PIN entry Buttons) just as the ADA requires.CAL-FIN 13082 pertains to POS terminals and outlines California state law requirements that involve security-tethered-dismounting (removing/dismounting) the terminal for accessibility and to follow other procedures, such as maintenance, upgrades, or security inspections.
13082. State of California Link | Note: Link: Unruh Act applies too.
This section outlines the specific requirements for a POS terminal mounting or stand to be ADA-compliant. Here's what it means:
Device Inclusion: The POS terminal mount or stand (referred to as "unit") must have a device that is either built-in (internal) or attached (external) to the unit. The ADA Stand uses PCI locked-on mounting to PCI and CAL-FIN 13082 security-tethered free standing for Tactile PIN Credit card terminals and Tactile PIN hand-held terminals.
Secure Attachment: The device must not be easily removable, meaning it should be secured in a way that prevents easy detachment. This is likely to ensure both security (to prevent theft or tampering) and stability.
Accessibility: The device should be designed to provide easy access for visually impaired users. This is to ensure that the device is user-friendly and accommodates the needs of those with visual impairments.
Permanently Attached for Freestanding Devices: If the device is freestanding (not built into the mount or stand), it must be permanently attached to the unit. This should be done using a braided wire or another type of tether, ensuring the device remains connected to the mount or stand and complies with security and accessibility requirements.
In essence, this means the POS terminal mount or stand must have a securely attached, easily accessible device to be ADA-compliant, with additional security measures for freestanding devices.
Further, POS equipment dealers whether direct or merchant services, distributors etc providers are to supply businesses with tactile and assistive-technology such as The ADA Stand that uses ADA regulation 309 operable U-shape Pull handle and ADA 309.4 operations providing device dismount for the cardholder.
California Fines are $4,000 to $6,000 plus any legal remedy costs.
Example for building code (below). UNRUH ACT States: The authority of the State Architect is neither increased nor decreased by this section. The State Architect’s power to mandate construction, alterations, or repairs remains as defined by other laws. And this is where ADA (Alterations) attaches:ADA and 508 (ICT) Sec. 36.402.
Building Code: ADA and 508 (ICT) Sec.36.402 Alterations. Federal. Activates and attaches to local codes. Sections (a)(1) and (c) are core.
(a) General. (1) Any alteration to a place of public accommodation or a commercial facility, after January 26, 1992, shall be made so as to ensure that, to the maximum extent feasible, the altered portions of the facility are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, including individuals who use wheelchairs.
(2) An alteration is deemed to be undertaken after January 26, 1992, if the physical alteration of the property begins after that date.
(b) Alteration. For the purposes of this part, an alteration is a change to a place of public accommodation or a commercial facility that affects or could affect the usability of the building or facility or any part thereof.
(1) Alterations include but are not limited to, remodeling, renovation, rehabilitation, reconstruction, historic restoration, changes or rearrangement in structural parts or elements, and changes or rearrangement in the plan configuration of walls and full-height partitions. Normal maintenance, reroofing, painting or wallpapering,
asbestos removal, or changes to mechanical and electrical systems are not alterations unless they affect the usability of the building or facility.
(2) If existing elements, spaces, or common areas are altered, then each such altered element, space, or area shall comply with the applicable provisions of appendix A to this part.
(c) To the maximum extent feasible. The phrase “to the maximum extent feasible,” as used in this section, applies to the occasional case where the nature of an existing facility makes it virtually impossible to comply fully with applicable accessibility standards through a planned alteration. In these circumstances, the alteration shall provide the maximum physical accessibility feasible. Any altered features of the facility that can be made accessible shall be made accessible. If providing accessibility in conformance with this section to individuals with certain disabilities (e.g., those who use wheelchairs) would not be feasible, the facility shall be made accessible to persons with other types of disabilities (e.g., those who use crutches, those who have impaired vision or hearing, or those who have other impairments).

LOCAL CODE
Local Code is attached by the Federal ADA Law – code in (Alterations). As an example: Let’s say you have a new location you are moving your business into or existing adding a new POS terminal. The mounting has to be ADA-compliant. the moment you set that new terminal stand on the countertop, that in effect activates the ADA alterations code, and that new terminal mount has to be an assistive-technology mount for the POS terminal. TAYLOR ADA Stands are the assistive-technology mounting for POS terminals.

(1) A tactually discernible numerical keypad similar to a telephone keypad containing a raised dot with a dot base diameter between 1.5 millimeters and 1.6 millimeters and a height between 0.6 millimeters and 0.9 millimeters on the number 5 key that enables a visually impaired person to enter his or her own personal identification number or any other personal information necessary to process the transaction in a manner that provides the opportunity for the same degree of privacy input and output available to all individuals.
(2) Other technology, such as a radio frequency identification device, fingerprint biometrics, or some other mechanism that enables a visually impaired person to access the video touch screen device with his or her personal identifier and to process his or her transaction in a manner that provides the opportunity for the same degree of privacy input and output available to all individuals.
(b) (1) On or before January 1, 2010, any existing point-of-sale system, except as provided in paragraph (2), that includes a video touch screen or any other nontactile keypad shall also be equipped with a tactually discernable keypad or other technology as described in subdivision (a).

If the device is freestanding, it shall be permanently attached to the unit by means of a braided wire or some other tether.
(f) This section shall not be construed to preclude or limit any other existing right or remedy regarding point-of-sale devices and accessibility.
