(not) recording video data

RealEye doesn't record any visual data while eye-tracking session. We get only pure data. Here's why and how.


Please don't be worried about your and your participant's privacy. We don't record any visual data (videos, images, sound) while the webcam is on.

RealEye doesn’t need to send any video or images to external servers, as everything happens in a participant's web browser.

While the calibration process system learns what a participant's face looks like while looking at certain parts of the screen. Thanks to this knowledge, our algorithm can predict gaze point position just by observing your face, and it all happens live in the web browser.

No data being sent anywhere equals there’s absolutely no risk of data being stolen or phished.
