MIMdating provides a profile photo verification feature. When a user uploads a profile photo, at sign-up or later, a technical fingerprint of the face it contains is computed in the user’s browser, sent once to the server, and compared with the technical data from the selfie taken at sign-up.
The fingerprint computed from the new photo is used only for this comparison and is not stored. Only the result of the verification is recorded, as an entry linking the photo concerned to a technical signature of the reference selfie.
When the comparison succeeds, a “Verified photo” badge may be displayed on the user’s profile, in particular in the suggestions and match cards shown to other members. When it does not, nothing is displayed to other members and the photo remains usable.
This badge disappears automatically when the user changes their profile photo or retakes their reference selfie. The user can then upload their photo again to obtain a new verification.
This verification is a technical indicator of consistency between a photo and a selfie. It is neither an identity check, nor an authentication of the person, nor a guarantee of the authenticity of the photo or of the profile information, and it may contain errors. Users remain responsible for the photos they publish, in accordance with these Terms.
This feature relies on the morphological analysis described in this Article 7 and on the explicit consent given by the user in that respect. No decision producing a legal effect on the user is taken solely on the basis of this result.
