Reasoning: Animated digital-human avatars that watch and listen to the user through the camera and microphone. Biometric-adjacent data is collected and, with consent, used to improve the product, and kept around 12 months. EEA users get EEA-only processing. A consent and camera question more than a data-leak one.
Flags: Facial and voice data used to improve the product · Facial data retained around 12 months · Assessed 2026-09-16. The assessment is Unseen's; the terms above are the vendor's.
