Privacy & Consent

A Careful Approach to Human and Biometric Data

Facial, biometric and other human data require defined purposes, informed consent and controlled handling at every stage. This is a foundational part of how we design every collection program.

We do not collect sensitive biometric data speculatively. Collection programs are designed around defined project requirements and appropriate participant consent.

Our Approach

Every collection program begins with a defined purpose. We do not collect data without a specific project and customer requirement behind it.

Participant Consent

Participants are informed of the purpose, usage and handling of their data and provide consent before any collection takes place.

Purpose of Collection

Each project defines the specific AI use case the data supports, which is disclosed to participants as part of the consent process.

Data Minimization

We collect only the data needed to meet the defined project specification — not more.

Secure Handling

Collected data is handled under access-controlled conditions throughout curation, annotation and quality control.

Access Control

Access to raw and in-progress data is limited to personnel directly involved in the relevant project stage.

Retention and Deletion

Retention periods and deletion procedures are defined per project and communicated to participants during consent.

Licensing Documentation

Delivered datasets are accompanied by licensing and consent documentation appropriate to the project's usage terms.

Biometric Project Requirements

Biometric and facial data projects require an explicit, defined purpose, a documented consent process and a project-specific privacy review before collection begins and again before delivery.

Customer Responsibilities

Customers are responsible for confirming that their intended use of the delivered dataset complies with applicable laws and regulations in their own jurisdiction and use case.
