Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
FaceCard is a free, ad-supported service operated by KARYA. We respect your privacy and are fully transparent about how this platform works — including our Blind Date feature.
1Data We Collect
Face Scan (AI Analysis): Facial images for the face card score are processed locally in your browser using on-device AI models. These images are never uploaded to or stored on our servers.
Blind Date Selfie: When you join Blind Date, your selfie is uploaded to Supabase Storage (encrypted at rest) solely for the purpose of the mutual-reveal feature. It is never shown to your match without your explicit consent.
Profile Data: Display name, gender, age confirmation, preference, and ice-breaker prompt stored in our database to power matching.
Analytics: Anonymous usage data (page views, scan counts) collected via Vercel Analytics and Google Tag Manager to improve the service.
2Blind Date — How We Handle Your Data
Photos: Your selfie is stored encrypted. It is only accessible to you and your matched partner — and only after both of you tap “Unblur”.
Chat Messages: Chat messages are stored temporarily during the 10-minute session in Supabase and are not permanently retained after the session ends.
Age Verification: Blind Date requires users to self-declare they are 18 or older. We do not collect date of birth or run ID verification. Misrepresenting your age is a violation of our Terms of Service.
Gender Matching: Gender and preference data is used solely for the 50/50 matching algorithm. It is never sold or shared with third parties.
Delete Your Data: You can request deletion of your Blind Date profile and selfie at any time by emailing us at checkfacecard@gmail.com.
3Women's Safety & Anti-Harassment
We are committed to making FaceCard a safe space for everyone, especially women.
- You can skip any match at any time without explanation.
- You can report any user using the report button in the chat room. Reports are reviewed within 24 hours.
- Harassment, unsolicited explicit content, or any form of abuse results in permanent ban.
- We maintain a 50/50 gender balance to reduce power imbalances.
- Photos are never revealed without mutual consent — both users must agree.
4Advertising & Third-Party Networks
FaceCard uses advertising to keep the service free. We work with:
- Google AdSense (ca-pub-1170592143084693) — contextual display ads.

5Cookies
We use cookies for session management, ad personalisation, and analytics. By using FaceCard you consent to cookies. Disable them in browser settings — some features (like Blind Date auth) may stop working.
6Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. Anonymous aggregate analytics may be shared with analytics providers. Ad partners receive standard browsing signals (IP, device type, referring URL) — governed by their own policies. Your Blind Date selfie is never shared with any third party.
7Children's Privacy
FaceCard is not directed at anyone under 13. Blind Date is restricted to users 18 and older. If you believe a minor has used this service, contact us immediately.
8DPDP Act 2023 (India)
We process personal data in compliance with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023. As a data fiduciary, we ensure your data is used only for the stated purposes, stored securely, and deleted upon request. For any data-related grievances, contact our Data Protection Officer at checkfacecard@gmail.com.
