I have a question: there is a file on the folder data/user which contains a document with sensitive data of Italian citizen, it's normal that is available for the public? The owner on the document has been noticed or it's a 'demo' document?

Hey @simone98dm, thanks for reporting this.

You are right, this indeed is sensitive information and it shouldn't be there in public. The fact is that facer is simple demo app available to everyone to try out face recognition in the browser. Each user is sole responsible for what they ever upload during the training of the face recognition process. Also everyone has the option to delete them after that.

The problem is if user upload some sensitive info and from time to time I upgrade the demo (npm packages etc) and redeploy, then what ever was there get's included in the source code.

Anyways, I will need to remove them from the source code at least and put some info.

Again, thanks for reporting this. I will keep this open until I find some time for remove them from source.
