INFORMATION YOU SHARE
Content sharing
Many of our services let you share information with others. Our services provide you with different options on sharing and removing your content.
​
Accessing and updating your Personal Information
Whenever you use our services, we aim to provide you with access to your Personal Information. If that information is wrong, we strive to give you ways to update it quickly or to delete it – unless we have to keep that information for legitimate business or legal purposes. When updating your Personal Information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can act on your request.
We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup tapes).
When we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort. We aim to maintain our services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction. Because of this, after you delete information from our services, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers and may not remove information from our backup systems.

Data transfers
If you live outside the United States, we transfer Personal Information outside the EU in accordance with EU data protection law, including where it is necessary to provide the Services. We may transfer your information to affiliates, partners and other third parties.
Standard contractual clauses
We may use a legal mechanism known as “standard contractual clauses” to protect information transferred outside the EU. Standard contractual clauses refer to contracts between companies transferring Personal Information (for example, from Storied.ai EMEA Limited to Storied.ai, Inc.) that contain standard commitments approved by the EU Commission protecting the privacy and security of the information transferred. To request a copy of the clauses, please email us at dpo@Storied.ai.
Accountability for Onward Transfer
In the event we transfer personal data to a third party acting as a controller, we will do so consistent with any notice provided to data subjects and any consent they have given, and only if the third party has given us contractual assurances that it will (i) process the personal data for limited and specified purposes consistent with any consent provided by the Users, (ii) provide at least the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles and notify us if it makes a determination that it cannot do so; and (iii) cease processing of the personal data or take other reasonable and appropriate steps to remediate if it makes such a determination. If Storied.ai has knowledge that a third party acting as a controller is processing personal data covered by the Privacy Shield Framework in a way that is contrary to the Privacy Shield Principles, Storied.ai will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop such processing.
With respect to our agents, we will transfer only the personal data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy needed for an agent to deliver to Storied.ai the requested product or service. Furthermore, we will (i) permit the agent to process such personal data only for limited and specified purposes; (ii) require the agent to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles; (iii) take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that the agent effectively processes the personal data transferred in a manner consistent with Storied.ai’s obligations under the Privacy Shield Principles; and (iv) require the agent to notify Storied.ai if it makes a determination that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles. Upon receiving notice from an agent that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles, we will take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate unauthorized processing.
Storied.ai remains liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if an agent processes personal data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, except where Storied.ai is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

​
Security and encryption
We work hard to protect Storied.ai and our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of information we hold.

Accountability for Onward Transfer
In the event we transfer personal data covered by the Privacy Shield Framework to a third party acting as a controller, we will do so consistent with any notice provided to data subjects and any consent they have given, and only if the third party has given us contractual assurances that it will (i) process the personal data for limited and specified purposes consistent with any consent provided by the Data Subjects, (ii) provide at least the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles and notify us if it makes a determination that it cannot do so; and (iii) cease processing of the personal data or take other reasonable and appropriate steps to remediate if it makes such a determination. If Storied.ai has knowledge that a third party acting as a controller is processing personal data covered by the Privacy Shield Framework in a way that is contrary to the Privacy Shield Principles, Storied.ai will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop such processing.
With respect to our agents, we will transfer only the personal data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy needed for an agent to deliver to Storied.ai the requested product or service. Furthermore, we will (i) permit the agent to process such personal data only for limited and specified purposes; (ii) require the agent to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles; (iii) take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that the agent effectively processes the personal data transferred in a manner consistent with Storied.ai’s obligations under the Privacy Shield Principles; and (iv) require the agent to notify Storied.ai if it makes a determination that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles. Upon receiving notice from an agent that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles, we will take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate unauthorized processing.
Storied.ai remains liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if an agent processes personal data covered by this Privacy Shield Policy in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, except where Storied.ai is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
Enforcement
We regularly review our compliance with our Privacy Policy. When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made the complaint to follow up. We work with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that we cannot resolve with our users directly.
Storied.ai may disclose Personal Information if required to do so by law or if it believes, in its reasonable discretion, that such disclosure is necessary to (a) comply with the law or with legal process, (b) protect against misuse or unauthorized use of the Storied.ai website or (c) protect the personal safety or property of Storied.ai website users, the public or Storied.ai employees or agents. We may also disclose your Personal Information in the event that we, in good faith, believe such disclosure is appropriate to cooperate in investigations of fraud or other illegal activity.
