# Data Capture

Data capture lets you collect participant information before photos are delivered. 

Data capture in Virtual Booth is always required — participants must opt in before accessing the capture page.

{% hint style="danger" %}
If data capture is accidentally disabled during an event, participant information cannot be recovered after the event.
