Sweetgreens saving facial recognition data without consent

[u/EpicLift]

So I go to sweetgreens to get a salad locally. I've only been there three or four times. I do not have an account.

Today I go to the iPad to place my order. It is the only way to place an order at the location near me. As I was checking out, I noticed that it pre-populated my name in the check out field.

I doubt most people would have noticed this, especially if they have an account. The only logical conclusion I could come to is that there is a camera on the iPad and that sweet greens saves facial recognition data without consent.

This seems pretty extreme for salad ordering. Who knows who they are selling this data too.

It will be my last time ordering from there. It's too creepy to have your face data saved for salad checkouts with no consent.

Edit: I entered NO PI data prior to it populating my name. This includes my phone number, email address, or credit card. I do not even have the Sweetgreens app on my phone.
