6.1 Login and Security Activity
To help you keep your account secure, we record information about successful sign-ins to your account. We collect and process the following personal data: your IP address, an approximate location (country) derived from your IP address, your device, browser and operating system, the date and time of the sign-in, and the sign-in method used (email one-time code, Google, Discord or GitHub). This information is associated with your account and shown to you in your account settings under "Login activity". The purpose of this processing is account security - enabling you to review recent sign-ins and to detect and stop access you do not recognise - as well as the prevention of fraud and abuse. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in the security of our service and your account pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR (see also Recital 49 GDPR); no separate consent is required for this security processing. The approximate location is derived from your IP address using a locally hosted database (IP-to-country data by DB-IP); your IP address is not transmitted to any third-party geolocation service for this purpose. Because it is based on the IP address, the location is only approximate and may be inaccurate, for example when a VPN is used. This login history is stored for the duration of your account and is automatically deleted when your account is deleted; within the application, only sign-ins from the last 90 days are displayed. You can end all active sessions at any time using the "sign out of all devices" function in your account settings.

You may object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the other processing based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Article 21 GDPR).

The service helps us to understand how the functions of our platform are used (for example which features are opened and which actions are carried out within the application) and to control the gradual roll-out of new functions (so-called feature flags). Usage events are only captured if you have given your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR; if you do not give your consent or revoke it, the service is limited to the technically necessary provision of feature flags without behavioural tracking, based on our legitimate interest in the controlled and stable operation of our platform pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR. Insofar as personal data is exceptionally transferred to the USA, the provider relies on standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which are meant to ensure compliance with the European level of data protection.

10.8 Sentry
We use the error diagnosis service "Sentry" of the following provider: Functional Software, Inc., 45 Fremont Street, 8th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA The service collects information about technical errors that occur during the use of our website (including error messages, the browser and operating system used, the time of the error and, if applicable, your IP address) and helps us to identify, reproduce and correct malfunctions. The processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in the stability, security and error-free functioning of our website pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR. Error reports are used exclusively for error diagnosis and are not combined with the data of the analytics and advertising services described above. For the transfer of data to the USA, the provider relies on standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which are meant to ensure compliance with the European level of data protection.11) API Services (3D AI Studio API)11.1 Scope and Roles
In addition to our website, we operate a public API at api.3daistudio.com that provides AI-powered image generation, 3D model generation, and 3D file processing services. When you use the API, the following data processing activities apply. When we process personal data that you submit through the API (for example, images containing identifiable individuals), we act as a data processor (Auftragsverarbeiter) within the meaning of Article 28 GDPR on your behalf. In this case, you are the data controller and are responsible for ensuring that you have a valid legal basis for the processing, including obtaining any necessary consents from data subjects. The details of our processing as a data processor are set out in our Data Processing Agreement (DPA) at https://www.3daistudio.com/Platform/API/DPA, which forms an integral part of the API Terms of Service. When we process personal data for account management, billing, security, and service operation purposes, we act as a data controller.

11.2 Data We Collect as Controller When You Use the API
When you create an API account and use the API, we collect and process the following personal data as data controller pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR (contract performance) and Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR (legitimate interest in security and service operation): account data (email address, two-factor authentication device information such as passkey public keys and authenticator device records); API request logs including IP address, API endpoint called, timestamp, HTTP status code, and credits consumed; authentication and security data including API key metadata (hashed keys, creation date, expiration date, first and last four characters), failed authentication attempts (IP address, timestamp), and rate limiting data; billing and payment data including credit purchase history, credit balance, and transaction records (payment details are processed by Stripe and are not stored by us directly). Your API Input (such as images or text prompts) and generated Output files are stored temporarily and are automatically and permanently deleted no later than twenty-four (24) hours after upload or generation.

11.3 Retention Periods for API Data
API request logs (endpoint, timestamp, status code, IP address, credits consumed): twenty-four (24) months, after which they are automatically deleted. Billing and financial records (credit purchases, transactions, ledger entries): ten (10) years, in accordance with German tax law (AO §147, HGB §257). Security logs (failed authentication attempts, rate limit events): twelve (12) months. Account data (email, API key metadata, settings): for the duration of the contractual relationship. After account deletion, account data is deleted except where retention is required by law. API Input and generated Output files: no later than twenty-four (24) hours after upload or generation, at which point they are automatically and permanently deleted.

11.4 Sub-Processors for API Services
To provide the API services, we engage sub-processors that may process personal data on our behalf. These include providers for AI model inference, data storage, payment processing, server hosting, application monitoring, and email delivery. The complete and current list of sub-processors, including their purposes, data categories processed, processing locations, and applicable data transfer mechanisms, is maintained at https://www.3daistudio.com/Platform/API/Subprocessors. For transfers of personal data to sub-processors located outside the European Economic Area, we rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (where the sub-processor is certified), EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) pursuant to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914, or adequacy decisions by the European Commission, as applicable to each sub-processor.

11.5 Data Subject Rights for API Data
If we process your personal data as data controller (account data, logs, billing), you may exercise your data subject rights as described in Section 13 below by contacting us at Jan@3DAIStudio.com. If we process personal data as data processor on your behalf (data submitted through the API), please contact the respective data controller (the API customer who submitted the data). We will assist the controller in responding to data subject requests as described in our DPA.

11.6 No Sale of Personal Data
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data to third parties. Personal data is only shared with the sub-processors listed in our Sub-Processor List and only to the extent necessary to provide the API services.12) Tools and Miscellaneous (Website)This website uses a so-called "cookie consent tool" to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The "cookie consent tool" is displayed to users in the form of an interactive user interface when they access the page, on which consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking the appropriate box. Using the tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user provides the corresponding consent by ticking the corresponding box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the respective end device of the user if consent has been granted. The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed. If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point GDPR based on our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website. Further legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) point c GDPR. As the responsible party, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent. Further information on the operator and the setting options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.13) Rights of the Data Subject13.1 The applicable data protection law grants you the following comprehensive rights of data subjects (rights of information and intervention) vis-à-vis the data controller with regard to the processing of your personal data: - Right of access by the data subject pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR; - Right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR; - Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR; - Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR; - Right to be informed pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR; - Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR; - Right to withdraw a given consent pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR; - Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR. 13.2 RIGHT TO OBJECT IF, WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF A CONSIDERATION OF INTERESTS, WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON THE BASIS OF OUR PREDOMINANT LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE ON THE GROUNDS THAT ARISE FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION. IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED. HOWEVER, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO FURTHER PROCESSING IF WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING REASONS WORTHY OF PROTECTION FOR PROCESSING WHICH OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS. IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA WHICH ARE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES. YOU MAY EXERCISE THE OBJECTION AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES.14) Duration of Storage of Personal DataThe duration of the storage of personal data is based on the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and - if relevant – on the respective legal retention period (e.g. commercial and tax retention periods). If personal data is processed basis on an express consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject revokes his consent. If there are legal storage periods for data that is processed within the framework of legal or similar obligations on the basis of Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after expiry of the storage periods if it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of the contract and/or if we no longer have a justified interest in further storage. When processing personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject exercises his right of objection in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, unless we can provide compelling grounds for processing worthy of protection which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing based on Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject exercises his right of objection pursuant to Art. 21 (2) GDPR. Unless otherwise stated in the information contained in this declaration on specific processing situations, stored personal data will be deleted if it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
