Transform models with AI Generative Face Fill

What should I modify to remove personal identities from images?

Image data qualifies as personal data (cf. Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR) if a person depicted on it is recognizable” in the sense that it can be individualized, irrespective of mere data identity. Therefore, the individual characteristics of a person depicted – such as a conspicuous item of clothing worn in a certain context – may be sufficient to make him or her recognizable. An excellent possibility to ensure privacy is to anonymize depicted individuals using EraseID. Always prioritize people’s privacy and rights when disseminating images online.

Do I need just the image copyrights for commercial use, or also personal rights?

De-identifying an image requires the removal or blurring of features to ensure individuals are not recognizable. Yet, this action does not eliminate the necessity of consent for commercial use. Even when a photo does not clearly depict an individual, that person may retain legal rights. Users bear the responsibility of ensuring sufficient anonymization.

What is a model release?

A model release is a legal form permitting commercial use of someone’s image, ensuring legal compliance like GDPR. It outlines permissions and provides identification. For advertising, you can sidestep this need by using tools like EraseID, which effectively anonymizes photos. Quickly replace real models with artificial, realistic ones.

Can a generated face look like an existing person?

Our generative face fill software produces diverse, bias-free synthetic identities. Given the model’s vast parameter range, the chance of replicating an existing human’s identity is almost nil. While a generated face might have a slim chance of resembling a real person, users should evaluate each similarity individually.

What types of images can I upload? 

You can upload JPG or PNG images up to 50 megabytes and a maximum resolution of 7,000 x 7,000 pixels. For higher resolutions or sizes, please contact our office to unlock this option.

How does the anonymization work? 

De-identification makes personal data untraceable to individuals. EraseID detects and replaces faces and haircuts with algorithmically generated ones. Effective anonymization might bypass explicit GDPR consent. However, EraseID’s users must know and follow all relevant data protection laws.

Do you store my images in the Web application? 

We store your generated photos safely on third-party servers in the European Union. We keep them for 24 hours, unless you choose to retain them longer.

Are there options for varying levels of anonymization? 

Yes, this feature is available in our beta version, accessible to our early-stage users. If you’re interested in testing it, please contact us at office@piktid.com.
