Privacy overview

Privacy at AgeByImage

AgeByImage provides an online experience for exploring apparent-age estimates from photographs. Because photographs and online interactions can involve personal information, visitors should understand the information they choose to share and the privacy considerations associated with using online services.

This policy explains the main privacy topics relevant to the website, including photographs, communications, technical information, third-party services, and privacy-related inquiries.

Photographs

Images containing identifiable people may constitute personal information. Consider this before submitting a photograph.

Website Information

Using a website can involve technical information and services that support its operation.

Privacy Questions

Visitors can contact AgeByImage at support@agebyimage.com with privacy-related inquiries.

1. Information You Provide

Information may be supplied when visitors interact with the website, including through contact inquiries and use of the age estimation tool.

Contact information

When you contact AgeByImage, the information you choose to include in your message may contain your name, email address, subject, and details of your inquiry. Please avoid including unnecessary sensitive information in support messages.

User-submitted content

When using a photo-based age estimation service, a submitted photograph may contain identifiable facial information. Visitors should choose photographs carefully and consider whether they have appropriate permission to use images of other people.

2. Photographs and Age Estimation

AgeByImage is designed around estimating apparent age from a facial photograph. A photograph may contain personal information about the individual shown, particularly when that person can be identified.

An apparent-age estimate is not a verified chronological age, identity determination, medical assessment, or legal-age verification.

Important context

The way photographs are transmitted, processed, shared with technical service providers, or retained depends on the deployed website configuration. Visitors with questions about these arrangements may contact AgeByImage.

Choosing Photographs

Before submitting an image, consider whether you are authorized to use it and whether the person shown would reasonably expect it to be used for this purpose.

Information in Images

Photographs may contain more information than facial appearance alone, including background details or other visible individuals. Choose images with appropriate care.

Understanding Results

Photo-based age estimates are approximations and may vary according to image quality, lighting, facial expression, camera angle, and other visual characteristics.

3. Information Associated With Website Use

Websites and the services that support them can process technical information associated with visits, such as browser details, device characteristics, IP addresses, requested pages, and diagnostic information.

8. Security and Privacy Considerations

Share information thoughtfully

Protecting information is an important consideration for online services. However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Visitors should avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive information through photographs or support messages and should use appropriate care when sharing images online.

9. Privacy Rights and Requests

Depending on where you live and the laws that apply, you may have rights relating to personal information, such as requesting access, correction, deletion, or information about certain processing activities.
