This is a very generous reading. A more parsimonious one is that they are actively doing facial recognition to get age and gender, and are arguing this is legal because they don't store the faces after acting on them, as the quoted marketing material suggests.

(I would expect laws banning unconsented facial recognition to ban it regardless of whether the faces end up in a database afterwards.)
