Frequently Asked Questions

How do I blur a face in a photo?
Upload your image and use the blur tool to apply blur over faces. Adjust the blur radius for stronger privacy protection. Use a higher blur value (15-20px) to ensure faces are unrecognizable.
Is face blurring enough for privacy?
A strong Gaussian blur (15px+) or heavy pixelation makes faces unrecognizable to humans and AI facial recognition. Ensure the blur covers the entire face including hairline and ears for complete anonymity.
Do I need to blur faces for GDPR?
Under GDPR, publishing recognizable faces without consent can violate privacy regulations. Blurring faces in street photography, event photos, and documentation helps ensure compliance.
