Account restricted to AQ. keys (limit: 0 on Free Tier) — Requesting restoration

Hello,

My account has recently been restricted to generating AQ. prefix keys instead of standard AIza keys.

When running requests using the python google-genai SDK, my code fails with a 429 RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED error stating that my free_tier_requests limit is set to 0.

I am using this for a personal college project (Mail Genie) and am not intentionally violating any rate limits. Could an engineer please review my account status and restore standard API key generation capabilities?

Thank you!
