Saving user photos on a server - do I need explicit consent?

Hi everyone, I have a question that I couldn’t find an answer to online. I’m building a website (EU based) where users can upload photos (e.g. of a restaurant menu) and then these photos are processed to extract some data and present it to users in a different way. I can’t link a photo to a particular user after it’s uploaded, and it can’t be accessed by any other user of the website. I’m doing it to be able to improve the algorithm and I want to avoid introducing friction into the UI.
Do I need to explicitly inform users that these photos are being saved on my server, and ask for consent?
Thanks in advance!
