5. Legal bases for processing (EU/EEA/UK users)
Where the GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:- Performance of a contract — to provide the Services you request and to fulfill our Terms of Service.
- Legitimate interests — to secure our Services, prevent abuse, keep our platforms safe, and improve our offerings; these interests are balanced against your rights.

6. AI content review
To keep our communities and services safe, user-submitted content — including messages, comments, images, and similar content — is automatically reviewed by AI moderation systems before or shortly after it is published.- The purpose of this review is to detect content that violates our Terms of Service (for example, illegal, harmful, or abusive content).
- The review is automated. We do not use it to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you without a possibility of human review.
- If content is flagged, it may be restricted, removed, or escalated to our moderation staff for a human decision.
- You can contest a moderation decision by contacting support@sinaty.business.
