Models are not bundled

ofiqpy does not redistribute OFIQ's model files. They ship with OFIQ and may be licensed separately from the OFIQ source (see OFIQ's LICENSE.md, which documents the license situation of individual dependencies and model files). ofiqpy loads them at runtime from a directory you provide:

export OFIQPY_OFIQ_DATA=/path/to/OFIQ-Project/data

The models include third-party components (e.g. ADNet, 3DDFA-V2, BiSeNet, HSEmotion, MagFace) under their own licenses. Consult OFIQ's licensing documentation before redistributing any model file.
