Your memories remain private. The security of your data is our highest priority. We therefore process and train our 3D models exclusively on our own servers and do not share your recordings with external platforms. Only you and the people you select receive access to your stored memories. Your moments belong to you. And that is how it should remain.
The controller responsible for processing personal data on this website is: Werbegrafik König Johannes Wolfgang König LAIKA STUDIO / GoSPL.io Mauerstr. 23 10117 Berlin Germany Email: hannes@gospl.io For LAIKA enquiries, you can also reach us at info@laika-studio.de.
Depending on how you use the site, we process contact and message content from enquiries, as well as technical usage, communication and log data needed to provide the website. This mainly concerns site visitors and people who contact us. Where applicable, we process data on the basis of consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), steps towards or performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), a legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR), or legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The basis for each activity is described below. German data protection law, including the Federal Data Protection Act, may also apply.
When you use the contact form, we process the email address, message, selected language and technical data required to transmit your enquiry. We use this information only to process and answer your message. The website does not maintain its own customer database. Your message is sent to LAIKA by email and processed in the relevant mailbox. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to entering into or performing a contract. General enquiries are processed under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is responding to communications addressed to us. We delete enquiry data when the matter has been completed unless legal retention duties or legitimate reasons require longer storage.
For successfully submitted contact enquiries, the website uses the Resend email service (Plus Five Five, Inc., 2261 Market Street #5039, San Francisco, CA 94114, USA). Information needed for delivery, in particular your email address and message, is sent to the service. Processing in the United States is possible. Transfers to third countries require suitable safeguards, such as EU Standard Contractual Clauses. More information: https://resend.com/legal/privacy-policy and https://resend.com/legal/dpa
This website presents an interactive spatial scene through SuperSplat, a service by PlayCanvas Ltd., 50 Cowcross Street, Floor 2, London EC1M 6AL, United Kingdom. The external scene does not load when you merely open the page. It loads only after you select “Load interactive scene”. Your browser then connects directly to the provider, which may process your IP address, browser and device information, time and the requested page. Processing outside the EU or EEA cannot be ruled out. By selecting the button you expressly request the interactive feature. The processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is presenting our spatial work in a user-friendly way; your interests are protected because no connection is made without your action. Where information must technically be stored on or accessed from your device to provide the expressly requested feature, Section 25(2)(2) TDDDG additionally applies. More information: https://playcanvas.com/privacy and https://playcanvas.com/cookies.
Some pages include videos from YouTube, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Before you click, the page loads only a preview image stored locally on our web server and makes no connection to YouTube. The video is embedded from youtube-nocookie.com only after you select “Play video”. Google may then receive information including your IP address, browser and device details, and the page you visited, and may store or access information on your device. Processing in the United States cannot be ruled out. The video loads on the basis of your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and, where information is stored on or accessed from your device, Section 25(1) TDDDG. Reloading the page ends the current embed. More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy
The projects page lets you load an interactive 3D gallery by GoSPL.io. The external gallery does not load when you merely open the page. It loads only after you select “Load gallery”. Your browser then connects directly to gospl.io, which may process your IP address, browser and device information, time and the requested page. By selecting the button you expressly request the interactive feature. The processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is presenting our spatial work in an engaging way; no connection is made without your action. Where information must technically be stored on or accessed from your device to provide the expressly requested feature, Section 25(2)(2) TDDDG additionally applies.

LAIKA currently does not use its own audience analytics, marketing pixels or non-essential cookies. Therefore no general cookie banner is shown during a normal visit. External content loads only after a deliberate action. If analytics, marketing or additional external services are added later, this policy and the consent mechanism will be updated before they are used.
To provide the website, we use storage, computing capacity and software from a hosting provider. When you visit, technically necessary data is processed, such as your IP address, time of access, requested page or file, amount of data transferred, referrer URL, browser and operating system. Server logs support delivery, stability and security. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is the secure operation of the website. Technical log retention follows the settings and periods of the hosting provider. Data needed to investigate a security incident may be retained until that investigation is complete.
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss and misuse. This includes encrypted website connections using HTTPS/TLS. Only people and service providers who need data for a particular purpose receive it. Where external providers act as processors, suitable contractual safeguards are required. For transfers outside the EU or EEA, we ensure there is a valid legal basis and appropriate protection, such as an adequacy decision or EU Standard Contractual Clauses. The services used by this website are described above.
We delete personal data when it is no longer needed for its purpose and there is no other legal basis for keeping it. Statutory retention duties or the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims may require longer storage. Data kept only for those reasons is no longer used for its original purpose.
Subject to legal requirements, you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing and data portability. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests for reasons related to your situation, and you may always object to direct marketing. You may withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future; processing before withdrawal remains lawful. To exercise your rights, write to hannes@gospl.io.
You may lodge a complaint with a data protection authority, particularly where you live, work or believe an infringement occurred. For Berlin, the responsible authority is: Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information Alt-Moabit 59–61 10555 Berlin, Germany https://www.datenschutz-berlin.de/
