What if I do not want PimEyes to share my personal data with external websites?

PimEyes does not share your personal data with external websites by default. Your data is only shared with third parties when it is necessary to provide a service you have explicitly requested, such as submitting a takedown request. In such cases, your identification information may be required for legal notices like DMCA or GDPR requests. If you prefer, you can also send simple takedown notices without providing your personal data, but please note that such requests may not carry legal weight and could be less effective. Outside of these situations, PimEyes does not sell or distribute your personal data, and any data sharing is limited to trusted service providers involved in operating the platform, under strict confidentiality and data protection agreements. You remain in control of your data and can choose whether or not to use services that involve sharing it.

What is the difference between free and paid searches?

Free searches allow you to see that matches exist, but access to the source links is limited. You can unlock and view the full results, including the exact URLs and websites where the images appear. This allows you to access the source content and take further actions if needed.

Asked by Greta Nowak · Mar 18, 2026

Am I guaranteed to find my images in search results?

PimEyes does not guarantee that all images of you will be found. Search results depend on images that are publicly available. Additionally, results may vary based on factors such such as image quality, angle, lighting, and how closely the uploaded photo matches indexed content. While PimEyes aims to provide accurate and helpful results, the availability and consistency of matches cannot be guaranteed.

Why are some results no longer available when I open them?

PimEyes provides links to images that are hosted on external websites, and does not control or manage the content on those sites. If a result is no longer available, it may be because the image or page has been removed, modified, or restricted by the source website. Additionally, PimEyes displays images using a temporary, secure process, and such images are not stored permanently. As a result, the availability of any result depends entirely on the external source, and PimEyes cannot guarantee continued access to that content.
