PEOPLE & PRIVACY · Workflow idea

Polish a headshot while keeping the person recognizable and in control of their image.

For work involving self-portraits a person chooses to submit and proposed professional profile-image edits, check the facts and permissions before taking the next step. Prepare a professional portrait variation from a person’s own submitted photo for them to inspect. A selfie is sensitive personal data, and a heavily changed portrait can misrepresent identity or appearance. Obtain explicit consent, restrict access and retention, do not use another person’s image or make deceptive identity changes, explain material edits, and let the subject approve or delete the final image before sharing.

Keep in mind

A selfie is sensitive personal data, and a heavily changed portrait can misrepresent identity or appearance. Obtain explicit consent, restrict access and retention, do not use another person’s image or make deceptive identity changes, explain material edits, and let the subject approve or delete the final image before sharing.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Provide clear notice and meaningful choice

Explain collection, purpose, access, retention, and correction or deletion options.

Exclude sensitive and unfair criteria

Use only relevant, explainable information and check for unequal effects.

Limit individual-level access

Separate identifying details and share only with designated reviewers.

Keep people in control of consequential use

Require qualified review and a clear way to question or decline a result.

Keep exploring

Review image-based 3D body models

Keep a person’s body images private and never treat a generated model as a measurement or judgment. Check the evidence, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.

Review dental clinic appointment requests

Help a patient arrange a visit without turning scheduling details into clinical advice. Review sources, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.
