Selfie search

How it works for a guest

1. They open Find my photos in the gallery, enter the PIN if there is one, and give their name and a mobile number or email.
2. The page says in plain words what happens to the selfie before they take it.
3. On a phone the front camera opens; on a computer they choose a photo.
4. In a few seconds they see the photos they are in, and can heart or download them. They can ask for the results on WhatsApp.

What happens to the selfie

• It is turned into a plain JPEG with its camera data (place, time, phone) removed, used once to find the guest's photos, then deleted.
• If a search does not finish, the selfie is still deleted.
• Selfies never appear in a link. Results open only for the guest who searched.
• The face measurements from the gallery's photos stay with the studio's gallery and are deleted when the gallery's closing date passes, when selfie search is switched off, or when the gallery is deleted.

Faces are measured by a model server run by the platform. Photos and selfies are not sent to any other company for this.

Limits

Selfie search is on the Trial, Starter, Pro and Studio plans, with a monthly number of searches across all your galleries. Each guest can search ten times a day, so one person cannot use up your allowance. You switch it on per gallery.
