contents Prior research states that frequencies below 75 Hz in eye-tracking data represent the primary eye movement termed ``signal'' while those above 75 Hz are deemed ``noise''. This study examines the biometric significance of this signal-noise distinction and its privacy implications. There are important individual differences in a person's eye movement, which lead to reliable biometric performance in the ``signal'' part. Despite minimal eye-movement information in the ``noise'' recordings, there might be significant individual differences. Our results confirm the ``signal'' predominantly contains identity-specific information, yet the ``noise'' also possesses unexpected identity-specific data. This consistency holds for both short-(approx. 20 min) and long-term (approx. 1 year) biometric evaluations. Understanding the location of identity data within the eye movement spectrum is essential for privacy preservation.
