2.1. Information You Provide
We may collect the following categories of personal information that you provide directly to us:
- Identifiers: name, email address, username, company name, job title;
- Account credentials and authentication information;
- Billing and payment-related information (processed by third-party payment providers — we do not store full payment card details);
- Communications with us, including support requests, emails, and feedback;
- Location information: when you use the Foreal mobile application to capture spaces, we collect your precise geolocation data automatically with your prior consent. You may also enter location information manually in connection with a project or space;
- User Content: photos, videos, 360° captures, 3D models, Gaussian splats, annotations, project communications, files shared via collaboration features, and associated metadata.

- Usage data: log files, access times, features used, error logs, session duration;
- Performance and diagnostic data.
When you use the Foreal mobile application to capture spaces, we automatically collect your precise geolocation data. Location access is requested once during active use of the application and is not collected in the background. You will be prompted to grant location permission by your device operating system before any location data is collected. On the web version of the Services, location is entered manually by you and is not collected automatically.

We may receive information from:
- Authentication providers (e.g. Google, Apple) when you use social login;
- Payment processors, in connection with billing;
- Analytics, hosting, and infrastructure providers;
- Business partners, where permitted by law.
3. How We Use Personal Data
We use personal data to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Services;
- Process User Content and generate outputs (e.g. 3D reconstructions, Gaussian splats);
- Improve, test, and develop our products and features;
- Conduct internal research and development;
- Train, evaluate, and improve artificial intelligence and machine-learning models that power the Services;
- Monitor performance, detect fraud, and ensure platform security;

4. Use of User Content for AI and R&D

- For internal research, testing, and product development;
- For training, validating, and improving AI and machine-learning systems that power the Services.
AI models trained using User Content will not be sold or licensed to third parties, except in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of Pixality's assets or business.
We do not sell User Content.
We do not publicly display identifiable User Content without your permission, unless it has been anonymised or aggregated such that it cannot reasonably be linked to you.
5. Purposes and Bases for Processing
We process personal data for the following purposes:

We do not sell personal data to third parties.

- Resolve disputes and enforce agreements.
When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it in accordance with our internal retention schedules. You may request deletion of your data at any time — see Section 10 below.
9. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or misuse, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security assessments.
