4. FACE GROUPING, AI SEARCH FEATURE, BIOMETRIC DATA

Pic-Time’s AI Photo Search feature enables End Users’ and Guests, clients, or Vendors to easily view and organize their most relevant images directly from the Gallery, such as finding photos of their grandparents, group photos, or themselves on the dance floor (“AI Photo Search”). This feature is intended to help the Gallery owner (i.e., End User) and permits viewers to quickly find photos, organize albums, and deliver images more efficiently. It is never used, or will be used, to verify a person’s identity or to enable face recognition outside the context of the relevant Gallery, a name is never associated with a face, and the feature is by default disabled, if enabled it is at Photographers explicit opt-in consent. The AI Photo Search feature is not designed or intended for identity verification, fraud detection, or other security-related uses and Pic-Time does not guarantee that the feature will produce accurate, complete or error-free results.

The AI Photo Search includes the following: (i) Guests can take a selfie and search for their pictures (“Selfie Search”); (ii) AI Photo filter helps make selections of photos from End Users’ Galleries, it will identify the photos associated with the key word, for example: “flowers”, filename, keywords, vendors, favorites, flagged and starred images, among other filters, see here for more details (“AI Image Filter”); and (iii) images are indexed as they are uploaded (“Face Grouping”). Face Grouping is probabilistic and may not always be accurate. Groupings are suggestions and may require review or correction by the photographer or end user. If you believe you were grouped in error, you can request correction or deletion at any time.

This section explains how face grouping technology, image recognition and classification, selfie searches, and AI Photo Search features works and how we handle biometric information. AI Photo Search feature uses AI models to identify faces through bounding boxes and employ five-point alignment, mapping the eyes and mouth, to level images for consistent processing. Once aligned, the system generates a 512-dimensional numerical feature vector, an abstract mathematical embedding used solely for clustering and search within the specific Gallery (“Face Data”).

If the feature is enabled, the Platform, through internally developed AI models, processes pixels in photos to detect facial regions and generate mathematical representations of facial features (often called embeddings, templates, or vectors), along with technical metadata such as detection confidence, bounding boxes, and timestamps. We may also store user selections that confirm or correct groupings. For Selfie Search, Face Data is not stored and is used for that specific session. Once the Guest leaves the Gallery the Face Data is deleted, it the Guest accesses and uses this feature again, it will need to take another Selfie.

We use Face Data and related technical data solely to provide, operate, improve, and support the AI Photo Search feature within the Gallery where it is enabled. Pic-Time has developed an exclusive AI model that stays within End Users/Guests/Photographers’ Account, ensuring that all your data will continue to be secure and not shared by third parties. We do not sell or share Face Data and we do not permit our service providers (and AI system providers, to the extent applicable) to use Face Data or related information for their own purposes. We do not use Face Data to identify a person across different Photographers’ Accounts, across unrelated Galleries, or to build profiles. We do not use Face Data to make legal or similarly significant decisions about individuals.

The Photographer who owns the Gallery is the controller of Personal Data processed in that Gallery, and Pic-Time acts as the processor or service provider (as applicable and defined under applicable privacy regulations) on the Photographer’s instructions. Therefore, we process Face Data and potential biometric information only to provide the Face Grouping feature to the Photographer and its End Users, we rely on the Photographer to provide any required notices and obtain any required consents from End Users (or “Non-Users” as defined above). Requirements for biometric data vary by jurisdiction. Where consent is required, the feature will be offered only after the End User (or, where applicable, the Photographer on the End User’s behalf) provides a clear, informed optin. Where consent is withdrawn or declined, Face Grouping will be disabled and associated biometric data will be deleted.

We or the Photographer will provide clear, written notice describing the purpose and duration of collection, and we will obtain a written or electronic release, where required, before collecting or creating Face Data.

Depending on the applicable laws, some of the information collected by the facial recognition feature may be considered "biometric data". You will be able to opt-out of such data collection by opting out of the facial recognition feature altogether. Face recognition-related data, including biometric data that we process solely on behalf of the Photographer in our capacity as a processor, will only be used to provide the Services.

We do not link Face Data to an identified person or other personal information, and Photographers or Photographers’ End User or Guests cannot name a face. We process such information to provide the face grouping feature, to comply with our contractual obligations towards the Photographers and as part of delivering our Services to them.

In jurisdictions with specific biometric privacy requirements, the following applies:

Notice and consent. We or the Photographer will provide clear, written notice describing the purpose and duration of collection, and we will obtain a written or electronic release, where required, before collecting or creating face embeddings.
We or the Photographer do not sell, lease, trade, or otherwise profit from biometric identifiers or biometric information.
We or the Photographer do not disclose biometric identifiers, the AI models are developed internally by Pic Time and are not hosted by third party providers.
We or the Photographer maintain a publicly available retention schedule and guidelines for permanently destroying biometric identifiers and information when the initial purpose for collection has been satisfied or within the period required by applicable law, whichever occurs first.
We store, transmit, and protect biometric identifiers and information using a reasonable standard of care within our industry and in a manner that is the same as or more protective than the way we store, transmit, and protect other confidential and sensitive information of a similar kind.

To exercise your rights or make a request related to Face Grouping or biometric information, please use the methods described in the “Your Privacy Rights” section of this policy. We act as a processor for your Photographer, we may route or refer your request to the photographer, and we will assist them in responding as required by law.
