A model analyzes what can be seen in your images \u2014 for example, people or objects. This visible content is then translated into a mathematical description so that the images can be searched quickly and specifically later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important:<\/strong> Of course, all data is processed securely and in compliance with EU regulations and the GDPR. Image content is analyzed exclusively on EU servers controlled by picdrop. Your data, image content, and search queries are not used to train or further develop AI models.

From there, enable the Content Search for your search and select the desired Result Accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1652\" height=\"454\" src=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suchdialog_Content_Suche_ENG.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suchdialog_Content_Suche_ENG.png 1652w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suchdialog_Content_Suche_ENG-1280x352.png 1280w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suchdialog_Content_Suche_ENG-960x264.png 960w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suchdialog_Content_Suche_ENG-768x211.png 768w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Suchdialog_Content_Suche_ENG-1536x422.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1652px) 100vw, 1652px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply enter a search term, and the Content Search will compare it with the stored image information and then display matching images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1585\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG-1585x1080.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3633\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG-1585x1080.png 1585w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG-1057x720.png 1057w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG-793x540.png 793w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG-768x523.png 768w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG-1536x1046.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beispielsuche_Content_Suche_ENG.png 1650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1585px) 100vw, 1585px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few quick tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Result Accuracy setting determines how closely the recognized image content must match your search term for an image to appear in the results. With low Result Accuracy, there will also be images included whose content only vaguely resembles your search term. With high Result Accuracy, on the other hand, only images whose recognized content is super close to your search term will be displayed. EXIF and IPTC data are not taken into account in the Content Search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I no longer want to use the Content Search in my account. How can I disable it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can disable the  Content Search for your account at any time by going to your account settings and turning off the \u201cEnable Content Search\u201d toggle in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/user\/settings#content-search\">Content Search section<\/a>. If you disable the Content Search for your account, we will automatically delete all data generated during indexing after 30 days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"template":"","faq-category":[42],"class_list":["post-3622","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq-category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq\/3622","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/faq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3622"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"faq-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq-category?post=3622"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
