Enable Personal Data Protection

FindFace 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 /etc/findface-security/config.py 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
