Video selfie verification
As part of the verification process, you may be asked to upload a video selfie to confirm your identity. You’ll see instructions on your screen for how to take a video selfie of your whole face.
Our technology analyzes the video to estimate the location of parts of your face (like your eyes), but doesn’t allow us to individually identify you or any other person. The information helps us distinguish videos of live people from videos of photographs used to impersonate live people.
A snapshot of the video is sent to human reviewers to compare it with the profile picture on your account. The information is processed to confirm you're a real person. This takes a few seconds before getting deleted. This video will never be visible on Facebook.
