        • It is important that babies or small children can be held safely. However, no parts of the parents' bodies should be visible.
        • Sometimes it is necessary to cancel the process because small children feel uncomfortable when the photo is taken automatically. The biometric requirements cannot then be met and no photo is possible. In these cases, the service is used via an external photo service.
