1. Data controller
The website kageaistudio.ru and its beta application form operate under the KAGE brand. Data controller: Шигин Фёдор Алексеевич (individual, self-employed under the Russian professional income tax regime). Privacy contact: kage.supp@gmail.com. KAGE is a brand name, not by itself a legal entity.
2. Data collected
When you apply, we collect your name, Telegram handle or email address, selected occupation, optional goal and comment, form language, and consent status. Hosting systems may also process IP address, request time, browser and device information, and access logs. Please do not include passwords, payment information or sensitive personal data in the optional comment.
3. Purposes
We use application details to review your interest in the closed beta, contact you using your chosen channel, and send an invitation if access becomes available. Optional responses help us understand testing needs. Technical information may be used to operate and secure the website. Marketing communications are not a purpose of this form and require a separate lawful basis.
4. Legal basis
Application data is processed on the basis of your specific, separately indicated consent via the required checkbox. You may withdraw consent. Necessary website operations and security processing rely on applicable lawful grounds. Where GDPR applies, consent is the basis for beta application processing; grounds for technical processing must be assessed under applicable law.
5. Service providers
Applications are submitted to Yandex Cloud Function and stored in Yandex Database (YDB). The site uses web hosting infrastructure; when hosted on Vercel, that service may process requests to site pages. Access to applications is needed only by KAGE team members handling beta invitations. Vimeo is contacted after you choose to play a video and may receive connection-related technical information. For details of the services used and data transfers, contact the controller by email.
6. Retention
Application details are used while we review your request, contact you and run the relevant closed-beta selection round. If your application does not lead to participation, the details are to be deleted once that round has ended and no further contact is needed. If you join the beta, further processing and retention will be explained under the applicable participation terms. If you withdraw consent, processing stops and information is deleted within the periods required by applicable law, unless another legal ground permits retention. Backup deletion follows applicable procedures and legal requirements.
7. International transfers
When you submit an application, it is delivered to Yandex Cloud Function and YDB. Depending on your location and the hosting configuration, requests and externally embedded material may be handled outside your country. Rules on localization of Russian citizens’ personal data and, where applicable, GDPR safeguards for international transfers must be observed. You can ask the controller about actual recipients and processing locations using the email address above.
8. Analytics and external content
The site records form interaction events in the JavaScript dataLayer without names, contact details or comment text. The dataLayer itself does not transmit these events to an external analytics provider; tools installed through hosting or tag managers may change that. After you choose to play a Vimeo video, Vimeo may receive technical connection data. External social networks have their own policies. Any additional analytics or non-essential cookies should be disclosed through the site’s applicable settings and notices.
9. Your rights
Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, withdrawal of consent and other statutory rights. Contact kage.supp@gmail.com and identify the contact used in your application. Where GDPR applies, additional rights may include data portability and the right to complain to a competent supervisory authority.
10. Security
Applications rely on the access and security controls of the connected services. Access should be restricted to people who need it to organize beta testing. You can report privacy or security concerns to kage.supp@gmail.com. No transfer over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
11. Changes
We may update this policy when the website, data processing or service providers change. The current version is available at https://kageaistudio.ru/en/privacy/. Material changes that require renewed consent will not be applied retrospectively without a lawful basis.
