Invenda Group told MathNews that the technology does not store information on "permanent memory mediums" and that the machines were GDPR compliant. "It does not engage in storage, communication, or transmission of any imagery or personally identifiable information," Invenda Group's statement read. "The software conducts local processing of digital image maps derived from the USB optical sensor in real-time, without storing such data on permanent memory mediums or transmitting it over the Internet to the Cloud." MathNEWS reported that Invenda Group's FAQ said that "only the final data, namely presence of a person, estimated age and estimated gender, is collected without any association with an individual."
