3. Data We Collect
3.1 Account Data (Legal Basis: Art. 6.1.b GDPR - Contract Performance)
| Data | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | Authentication, service communications | While account is active |
| Username | Platform identification | While account is active |
| Unique identifier (UID) | Cross-device data linking | While account is active |

3.2 Music Project Data (Legal Basis: Art. 6.1.a GDPR - Consent)

IMPORTANT about XXHash64: Digital fingerprints are 16-character alphanumeric codes generated using the XXHash64 algorithm. It is mathematically impossible to reconstruct the original audio from this fingerprint. It works like a "fingerprint" that identifies the file without revealing its content.
