The image is then uploaded to Yoti's backend server for estimation

"Images are immediately, permanently deleted, and not used by Yoti for training purposes."

the facial recognition does not presential a substantial risk to parents' privacy or potential biases.

"To the extent that there is any risk, it is easily outweighed by the benefits to consumers and businesses of using this [Facial Age Estimation] method."

Pretty sure only one of those statements can be true. I'd go with "there is a risk".

There's no paradox. It says there is a risk, it is not substantial, and the benefits outweigh it.
