Techgentsia Software Technologies Private Limited ("Techgentsia", "we", "us", or "our") operates operates the VKonfirm website at www.vkonfirm.com and VKonfirm mobile application (collectively “VKonfirm”). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, sharing, retention and disclosure of personal data when you use our service through VKonfirm and the choices you have associated with that data.
VKonfirm is a video stream-based AI enabled attendance system using face recognition technology as a solution to streamline and automate the attendance tracking process for organisations and education institutions (the "Service"). Facial recognition technology requires teaching a computer to recognize people the way humans do – by looking at their faces. For this training purpose we show the computer lots of different human faces that we capture (the "Training").
The computer needs real and varied examples to understand the diversity in human faces. Using real faces that come in different shapes, sizes, and colours, with various features and expressions helps the computer learn how to deal with different lighting conditions, angles, and even changes like ageing or facial hair.
We collect several different types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our service to you.
While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Data"). Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to:
