Privacy & GDPR Compliance

Cookie & Local Storage Policy

We believe in privacy by design. ImageTo3DLab uses only strictly necessary cookies and local client-side storage to deliver 3D slice generation, secure authentication, and payment continuity without intrusive tracking.

What Are Cookies & Local Storage?

Cookies and web storage technologies (like browser localStorage and IndexedDB) allow web applications to store small pieces of configuration or session data directly on your device. Under the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC), we are committed to transparently disclosing every cookie and storage mechanism our platform operates. ImageTo3DLab does not deploy cross-site advertising cookies, nor do we track or sell your browsing history to third-party ad networks.

Strictly Necessary & Functional Storage

Our application utilizes essential technical cookies and browser storage strictly required for platform operation: (1) Authentication & Session: When you sign in with Google OAuth via Better Auth, an encrypted HTTP-only session cookie ('better-auth.session_token') is stored to securely verify your identity, credit pack balance, and export history; (2) Edge Security: Cloudflare edge infrastructure may set security cookies ('__cf_bm', 'cf_clearance') to protect against DDoS threats, scrapers, and malicious bots; (3) UI Preferences: Your preferred theme (Dark, Light, or System) is saved in your browser's localStorage ('imageto3dlab-theme'); (4) In-Browser 3D Cache: When converting images into multi-color 3MF models, WebAssembly and WebGL process vectors and mesh slices entirely inside your local browser memory and IndexedDB cache. Your original graphics are never transmitted to external cloud databases.

Payment Processing & Fraud Prevention

When you purchase export credit packs or lifetime passes, transactions are processed directly by our Merchant of Record, Waffo Pancake. Waffo may utilize temporary secure session identifiers and anti-fraud cookies to guarantee transaction continuity and prevent unauthorized card usage. ImageTo3DLab never handles, accesses, or stores payment card credentials on our servers.

Privacy-Preserving Analytics

To monitor infrastructure reliability, page load speeds, and Web Vitals, we use Cloudflare Web Analytics. This service is cookieless and privacy-first: it measures aggregate traffic metrics without tracking individual identities, IP addresses, or cross-site behaviors, fully satisfying EU regulatory privacy guidelines without requiring intrusive cookie banners.

Managing Your Browser Storage & Rights

You have full control over cookie permissions through your web browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge). You may view, block, or clear cookies and local site data at any time. Please note that disabling strictly necessary authentication cookies will prevent you from signing in to your account dashboard and accessing purchased export credits. For any privacy or cookie-related questions, please contact our data team at support@imageto3dlab.com.
