Steps to reproduce:

I have a oneplus 7 pro. It has a popup camera for its front facing camera. When I goto the go365.com website, it makes the camera popup and down during the loading of the site, doing nothing else. The amount of time it is up and down is the amount of time that the facial recognition takes to unlock the phone.

Actual results:

Camera activated on a website without consent to activate.

Expected results:

Camera should not have activated without consent. This could be a login error where it's trying to use facial recognition to login(they do not have my data on that). Or it could be a gdpr issue for them.
