FacePrivacy
Overview
FacePrivacy is a service designed to help individuals remove their facial data and identity from various facial recognition databases. The process involves two primary steps: users first upload a front and side photo, which the service encrypts upon receipt. These photos are used to identify the user's faceprint within numerous databases.
How FacePrivacy Works
Once the photos are uploaded, FacePrivacy initiates removal requests with major facial recognition systems globally, including prominent ones like Clearview AI, PimEyes, EyeMatch.ai, FaceCheck.id, Corsight.ai, Social Catfish, and Lenso.ai. These databases are often utilized by governments, law enforcement, and private companies, having scraped billions of faces from the open web without consent.
A critical aspect of the service is its ongoing monitoring. Facial recognition databases continuously re-crawl the public web, meaning a face previously removed can be re-indexed. FacePrivacy continuously monitors for such re-appearances and submits new removal requests on the user's behalf for as long as they are subscribed. The service also leverages available rights under privacy frameworks like GDPR and CCPA to support eligible removal requests, aiming to reduce exposure to risks such as impersonation, unwanted surveillance, doxxing, and deepfakes.
