"
Face Recognition Data means biometric data generated during the third-party age estimation process, or the third-party age and identity verification process, which is capable of being used to identify you by your physical features. Please note that Face Recognition Data does not include the short .gif image of you (as described in our Third-Party Onboarding Data category above), even though that .gif is used to generate Face Recognition Data. We will only process Face Recognition Data with your explicit consent, where required by applicable law, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.
