Use of Your Webcam Photos

⚠️ Please note: During the experiment, your webcam will be turned on and will capture still images of your face while you watch the video. Below is an example of the kind of image that will be captured.

Please choose how you would like your photos to be used:

1. Use for open research

You may choose to allow your photos to be used beyond this research project and for other research purposes, to contribute to open science. We plan to adopt an End User License Agreement (EULA) to make sure the dataset will only be available for research purposes — not for commercial use, and not to be shared with third parties.

2. Use for this research only

You may choose to allow your photos to be stored throughout this PhD project. Once the project is completed, the photos will be deleted. Access to the photos will be restricted to authorised researchers in this project only.

3. Immediate deletion

You may not wish for your photos to be stored. The photos will be deleted after facial expression recognition is performed and the photos are reviewed — which means only the extracted features, not the photos, will be retained for the research.
