Enable Personal Data Protection

FindFace Security supports laws related to the processing of personal data of individuals (GDPR and similar).

To apply personal data protection to your system, do the following:

  1. Open the findface-security configuration file.

    sudo vi /etc/findface-security/config.py
    
  2. Disable saving unmatched events by setting 'IGNORE_UNMATCHED': True.

    ...
    
    FFSECURITY = {
        ...
    
        # do not save unmatched events (GDPR support)
        'IGNORE_UNMATCHED': False,
    
        ...
    
    }
    
  3. For events with matches, enable blurring all unmatched faces in full frames. To do so, set 'BLUR_UNMATCHED_FACES': True. Optionally, you can modify the default JPEG quality of those frames.

    ...
    
    FFSECURITY = {
        ...
    
        # blur all unmatched faces on the full frame of the matched event (GDPR support)
        'BLUR_UNMATCHED_FACES': False,
    
        # full frame jpeg quality when `BLUR_UNMATCHED_FACES` is enabled
        'BLURRED_FULLFRAME_JPEG_QUALITY': 85,
        ...
    
    }
    
  4. Restart findface-security.

    sudo systemctl restart findface-security.service
