As part of the implementation and operation of AI agents for the Clients, the Controller may, depending on the specific configuration of the solution, process the personal data of the Client's end users on behalf of the Client. In such cases, BLUE SAND d.o.o. acts as a Data Processor within the meaning of Article 28 of the GDPR, and the Client remains the Controller responsible for the lawfulness of processing towards end users.
Such processing is governed by a separate Data Processing Agreement (DPA), which is an integral part of a specific service agreement.
Article 3: Purpose and legal basis of the processing
Personal data collected through the contact forms is processed exclusively for the following purposes and on the following legal bases:

Article 5: Transfer of personal data outside the EEA
Some of the third-party platforms we use (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, Voiceflow) are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA), predominantly in the United States.
The transfer of personal data to the USA and other third countries is carried out only with the application of appropriate safeguards:
• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission (EU Implementing Decision 2021/914)
• EU-US Data Privacy Framework — European Commission's decision on the adequacy of the level of protection adopted in 2023
• Additional technical protection measures (encryption, pseudonymisation) where appropriate.
The Client's business data is processed in isolated environments and is never used to train public AI models or for any purpose other than executing agreed automations.
Article 6: Period of storage of personal data
• Data from lead contact forms: up to 2 (two) years from the last contact, i.e. until unsubscribing from marketing communications.
• Data related to concluded contracts: 11 (eleven) years from the end of the business year in which the contractual relationship ended, in accordance with the Accounting Act (Official Gazette 78/15 and amendments).
• Data processed as part of the provision of services to the Client: in accordance with the instructions of the Client as the Controller, as defined in a special DPA, and no longer than 90 (ninety) days from the termination of the contractual relationship, after which they are securely deleted.
Article 7: Rights of data subjects
Any natural person whose personal data is being processed by the Controller has the right to:
• Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR): to request whether the processing is confirmed and to obtain a copy of the data

All these rights can be exercised by sending a request to the e-mail address: info@cupres-ai.com. The Controller will respond to the request within 30 (thirty) days of receipt, in accordance with Article 12 of the GDPR.
The data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority — in the Republic of Croatia, this is the Personal Data Protection Agency (AZOP), Selska cesta 136, 10000 Zagreb, www.azop.hr.
