Face Data Usage

Our app provides users with a feature to search for themselves in public event photographs by temporarily uploading an image. We are committed to protecting your privacy and want to clarify how your face data is handled:

Face Data Collection: We do not collect or store any face data permanently. The uploaded image is only used for a one-time face match operation and is discarded immediately after processing.

Purpose of Use: The uploaded photo is only used to help users identify themselves in public event photographs featuring Hon’ble Minister Shri A.K. Sharma ji.

Retention Period: The uploaded image is retained only during the face-matching session and is deleted automatically once the operation is complete.

Data Sharing: We do not share face data with any third parties.

Third-Party Data Retention: As no face data is shared, no third party stores or uses your face data.

Security: The image processing is handled securely through a private API on our server. No face data is stored, logged, or transmitted to any other service.
