Privacy Policy
Updated
This policy describes what information FaceCalculators collects from visitors to facecalculators.com, how that information is used, and what rights you have over your data. It applies to all visitors regardless of location.
What Information We Collect
Facial Analysis Data
No biometric data is transmitted to any server and no biometric data is stored at any point. All facial analysis on FaceCalculators runs entirely within your browser using your device’s own processing capability. The tool processes camera input, uploaded photos, or entered measurements locally on your device. When your browser session ends, all analysis data is discarded. Nothing is retained by FaceCalculators.
Email Addresses
Users who submit their email address through the recommendations capture form do so voluntarily. Email addresses are stored in a self-hosted WordPress database on FaceCalculators servers. They are not sold, rented, or shared with third parties. Email addresses are used only to deliver face shape and style guidance content to subscribers who have opted in to receive it.
Analytics Data
[ANALYTICS TOOL] collects standard session information: pages visited, time on page, click patterns, and general device type. No personally identifiable information is captured through analytics.
Advertising
FaceCalculators uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. AdSense places cookies in your browser to serve advertisements relevant to your browsing activity. Users in applicable jurisdictions can manage ad personalization settings through Google’s privacy controls.
Cookies
The site uses three categories of cookies: WordPress session cookies required for site functionality, analytics cookies, and advertising cookies placed by Google AdSense.
Biometric Data Notice
Facial analysis on FaceCalculators is performed locally on your device using Google MediaPipe Face Landmarker. The model maps facial landmark coordinates within your browser only. No photographs, video frames, facial measurements, or biometric identifiers are transmitted to FaceCalculators servers at any point during or after analysis. No images are stored. All processing ends when the browser session closes. FaceCalculators does not collect, transmit, or retain biometric data of any kind.
