Privacy Policy

AP Studios BV prioritizes user privacy and aims to comply with applicable laws regarding personal data collection. This policy clarifies that personal information encompasses any details enabling individual identification, including names, addresses, birthdates, device information, payment details, and usage analytics.

The platform may contain links to external websites and services. Users should review those sites' privacy statements independently, as this policy does not govern activities occurring after leaving the application.

Voluntarily Provided Information:
• Account registration details
• Contact submissions
• User-generated content (text, images, video)
• Demographic data: name, email, weight, age, height, sex

Automatically Collected Information:

The organization employs commercially acceptable protections against unauthorized access, loss, and theft. However, no electronic storage method guarantees absolute security. Users maintain responsibility for password strength and account security.

Information retention depends on its purpose. Account-related data persists during account existence; unnecessary data is deleted or anonymized. Legal obligations, archiving needs, and research purposes may require extended retention.

The application does not target users under 13 and does not intentionally collect minors' personal information.

Control options:
• Decline information provision (affecting service functionality)
• Modify previous marketing consent
• Access held personal data
• Request corrections to inaccurate information
• Withdraw consent without penalty
• File complaints with regulatory authorities
• Unsubscribe from communications

Non-discrimination guarantee: The organization will not deny services, charge differently, or reduce quality for exercising privacy rights.

Controller Status: AP Studios BV operates as a data controller processing personal information for its own purposes.

Lawful Processing Bases:
• User-provided consent (revocable)
• Contract performance and transaction preparation
• Legitimate organizational interests (service improvement, operations, communications)
• Legal compliance obligations

International Data Transfers: Transfers from the European Economic Area to external jurisdictions employ European Commission-approved standard clauses or equivalent safeguards.

Extended User Rights:
• Request processing restrictions
• Object to legitimate-interest-based processing
• Receive portable data copies
• Request deletion (with 30-day account deletion response)
• Seek regulatory complaint processes

Changes to this policy reflect operational updates, accepted practices, or regulatory changes. Significant modifications trigger user notification. Legal requirements may necessitate opt-in or opt-out opportunities.
