Technical Background

Our app implements a system based on the Fawkes algorithm to protect your privacy. It makes subtle, imperceptible changes to your photos that effectively prevent unauthorized facial recognition systems from accurately identifying you.

The protection works by applying carefully calculated perturbations to your images while maintaining their visual quality. This ensures your photos look normal to human eyes but confuse AI training models.
