Facial recognition search is a face mechanism that maps the face of the event participant and, by sending a photo of the person's face to the system, the other photos of this person registered in the event are found.

How do I enable facial recognition for my photos?
  1. If you are the event creator on Fotop, you need to enable facial recognition search in your event, before photos can be uploaded ( click here to see how the search types work );
  2. If you are a photographer participating in the event, make sure the event owner has activated facial recognition search and then upload your photos.
IMPORTANT: facial recognition is only activated on photos if this type of search was enabled before the photos were uploaded.

Privacy in facial recognition:
  1. In searches carried out within the website, after publication of the event, the photos sent for the facial recognition search are used only for that search, are not stored by the system and are immediately discarded.
  2. In the case of advance package purchases, the photo used for facial recognition is stored in the system only until the event photos are delivered to the customer.
  3. When performing a facial recognition search, the user consents that the photo sent will be used to find the user's images at that event.
  4. In events in the training category, the galleries are closed, that is, the photos are not opened in pagination and are only found after a facial recognition search.
