What the feature does
LensPic compares a selfie or facial reference provided by a consenting member with photographs inside one authorized group gallery. It returns potentially relevant photographs; it does not identify unknown individuals.
Information processed
The workflow may process the submitted selfie, a derived facial representation, group-specific indexed faces, potential match scores, review outcomes and consent records.
Consent and optional participation
Face matching starts only after the user receives the relevant notice and explicitly consents. Participants can use permitted gallery browsing without claiming that face matching is mandatory for every gallery.
Accuracy limitations
Similarity matching can return false matches or miss photographs. Lighting, pose, image quality and appearance changes can affect results. Users should review potential matches and can reject or request review of supported results.
Withdrawal, retention and deletion
Supported workflows allow consent withdrawal and tracked biometric deletion requests. Withdrawal stops future processing under that consent but may not remove records that must temporarily remain for security, audit or valid operational obligations.
