I would like to implement Microsoft's Face API, but the sign-up link leads to Microsoft Azure. Does that mean I have to be a paying Azure Cloud customer to use it? Would that also mean it's not possible to use on a site running on a Linux server?

Microsoft Azure Face API offers advanced algorithms that detect human faces in digital images. Face API can detect one or more human faces in an image and display face rectangles to highlight the faces in the image.
The Azure Face service provides AI algorithms that detect, recognize, and analyze human faces in images. Facial recognition software is important in many different scenarios, such as identity verification, touchless access control, and face blurring for privacy.
The ability to detect and analyze human faces is a core AI capability. In this exercise, you'll explore two Azure Cognitive Services that you can use to work with faces in images: the Computer Vision service, and the Face service.
The Face API is in the Azure Market Place. It's free and here are the details:
The free offer provides all Face API operations that include face detection, face verification, similar face searching, face grouping, and person identification. With this free plan, calling to the Face APIs limits to 20 transactions per minute and 5000 transactions per month.
After that, a primary and secondary key is created. Here is the help documents link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/face/
You can sign-up for Azure's free trial, and utilize the market place.
This is a REST API, so you shouldn't have problems with your Linux server.
