Users are responsible for minimizing the capture of unnecessary personal data in photos.

This may include:

  • approximate or precise device location;
  • distance from the property;
  • time of location check;

AI-generated outputs are assistance tools only. Users remain responsible for reviewing and validating any result before relying on it operationally.

SparkList does not replace human review, professional judgment, or the user’s own operational responsibility.
