Purpose of Data Collection

Customers create an account to use our services to store data on and retrieve data from our systems. Their account information always includes their email address. A customer may choose the free level of service that provides for up to 10 gigabytes of free storage. No additional information is requested for free accounts. If a customer wishes to purchase additional storage they will provide their name, address, phone number, and payment information. They may opt-in to use our computer location option. If so, we record the TCP/IP address of the customer's computer. We use third parties such as Stripe to process the payments and refunds. We use email marketing companies such as Hubspot and SendGrid to communicate with customers. We use text verification companies such as Plivo and Twillio to offer optional two-factor authentication capabilities to customers.
