Privacy Protection & Face Check: Your Digital Rights in 2024

Understanding your privacy rights in the age of facial recognition technology. Learn how to protect your personal data while using face check tools responsibly.

As facial recognition technology becomes more prevalent, understanding your privacy rights and how to protect your personal data is crucial. In 2024, new regulations and privacy laws are reshaping how companies handle biometric data. FaceCheckis committed to transparency and privacy protection, ensuring your searches remain private and secure.

Global Privacy Laws & Face Recognition

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe classifies facial recognition data as biometric data, requiring explicit consent for processing. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)provides similar protections in the US. Illinois' Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) requires companies to obtain written consent before collecting biometric data. These laws give you the right to know what data is collected and how it's used.
