Declaration to turn on faces
Version faces-basis-2026-11
What the organiser declares to turn on face recognition in their event.
Legal basis
Faces are biometric data (Art. 9 GDPR). The organiser declares that race registration collects runners' explicit consent to face recognition in their photos.
A real alternative
Anyone who doesn't consent can find their photos by bib number only. Consent is never imposed.
Minors
In events with minors, the organiser can tick "don't index faces": faces then can't be turned on.
Retention
Faces and identities are deleted when sales end, and when faces are turned off. Search selfies aren't stored.
Responsibility
The organiser answers to runners for this legal basis. The declaration is recorded with its date and version.
