What we know about this broker

Confirmed 2026-06-16. Clearview AI is a facial-recognition company that scrapes public photos and sells search results to law enforcement and commercial clients. The opt-out portal routes through OneTrust at https://privacyportal.onetrust.com/webform/1fdd17ee-bd10-4813-a254-de7d5c09360a/ and is reachable via the footer link at clearview.ai/privacy-and-requests. Supported states include CA, CO, CT, DE, IL, IA, KY, MN, MT, NE, NH, UT, VA. The form requires an email address plus a facial photograph — Clearview cannot search their database by name, only by image. For access requests a government-ID photo is also required (id_required set true; the engine must redact before upload). Authorized agents are conditionally accepted (must be authorized to act on behalf of the state resident). Confirmation arrives via email link. Privacy contact: [email protected] and [email protected]. Tier 3 because results are not publicly observable — only the broker can confirm removal. High relisting risk: Clearview continuously re-scrapes the web, so photos can re-enter the database after removal. Escalation path: legal_template (BIPA/ CCPA litigation context; Vermont AG refiled lawsuit April 2025). Sensitive flags: biometric data (facial recognition vectors), geolocation.
