Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 4, 2026
1. Information We Collect
When you use FaceSentry, we collect the following information:
- Account information: Email address and display name when you register.
- Reference photos: Photos you upload for face matching. These are encrypted at rest and in transit.
- Biometric data: Mathematical face embeddings (512-dimensional vectors) derived from your photos. These are NOT photos - they are numerical representations that cannot be reverse-engineered into images.
- Scan results: URLs and metadata of matches found during scans.
- Payment information: Processed securely by Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To detect and monitor unauthorized use of your likeness across the internet.
- To run AI deepfake detection, NSFW classification, and liveness verification on scan results.
- To generate automated DMCA takedown notices and TAKE IT DOWN Act filings on your behalf.
- To send email alerts when matches are found.
- To process subscription payments.
3. AI Processing
All AI models run on our own infrastructure. Your photos and biometric data are never sent to third-party AI services (OpenAI, Google, etc.). We use the following proprietary and on-premise models:
- Proprietary Spartan deepfake detection model (designed and trained in-house)
- Proprietary Spartan NSFW classification model (designed and trained in-house)
- Proprietary Spartan GenD CLIP AI-generated content detector
- AdaFace face recognition model (Apache 2.0 license)
- SCRFD face detection model
- MiniFASNet liveness verification model
4. Data Security
- All data encrypted at rest and in transit (TLS 1.3) by our infrastructure providers.
- Biometric embeddings stored in an isolated database.
- Reference photos stored in encrypted cloud storage with private access only.
- Database hosted on Supabase (SOC 2 Type II certified).
5. Data Retention and Deletion
You can delete your account and all associated data (photos, embeddings, scan results, takedown records) at any time from your Settings page. Account deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. We retain no copies after deletion.
Scan results older than 90 days are automatically purged for free-tier accounts.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties, except:
- Stripe for payment processing.
- When required by law (court order, subpoena).
- DMCA/TAKE IT DOWN Act notices you authorize us to send to platforms on your behalf.
7. Children's Privacy
Family plan accounts may include minors. For children under 13, parental consent is required and all results are delivered only to the parent's account. We comply with COPPA requirements.
