This section describes how Talentshow may share and disclose Information, as described in the section entitled 'Information We Collect & Receive' above. 

We offer a platform for Users to upload videos, advertising services, video streaming services, and we want the Services to work well for you.  This means disclosing information through the Services and to certain third parties.  Please note that information about you, your devices, and your behavior collected through third-party cookies, pixels, tags, or other tracking technologies for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising may be considered a “sale” or “share” under certain US state laws.

We disclose information we collect about you in the ways discussed below, including disclosing to corporate affiliates. 

3.1 DISCLOSING TO OTHER SERVICE USERS

When you use the Services, we disclose certain information about you to other Service users.

For Publication: You can create content, which may contain information about you, and other Users will view and/or download that content.  When you publish a video, your name is displayed as the author of that video, and Service users with permission to view the page can view your profile information as well.

Please be aware that some aspects of the Services like Videos, Comments, etc., can be made publicly available, meaning any content posted in that space, including information about you, can be publicly viewed, indexed by, and returned in search results of search engines.  

Similarly, some of the features of the Services display some or all of your profile information to other Service users when you disclose or interact with specific content.  For example, when you comment on a video, we display your profile picture and name next to your comments so that other users with access to the video understand who made the comment. 

Managed Accounts & Administrators: If you register or access the Services using an email address with a domain that is owned by your employer or organization or associate that email address with your existing account, and such organization wishes to establish an account or site, certain information about you including your name, profile picture, contact info, content and past use of your account may become accessible to that organization’s administrator and other Service users sharing the same domain.  If you are an administrator for a particular site or group of users within the Services, we may disclose your contact information to current or past Service users, for the purpose of facilitating Service-related requests.   

Community Forums:  Our websites offer publicly accessible forums. You should be aware that any information you provide on our Websites - including profile information associated with the account you use to post the information - may be read, collected, and used by any member of the public who accesses these websites.  Your posts and certain profile information may remain even after you terminate your account.

Service Providers: We work with third-party service providers to provide website and application development, hosting, maintenance, backup, storage, virtual infrastructure, payment processing, analysis, marketing, and other services for us, which may require them to access or use information about you.  If a service provider needs to access information about you to perform services on our behalf, they do so under close instruction from us, including appropriate security and confidentiality procedures designed to protect your information.

Third-party app policies and procedures are not controlled by us, and this privacy policy does not cover how third-party apps use your information. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third parties before connecting to or using their applications or services to learn more about their privacy and information handling practices. If you object to information about you being disclosed to these third parties, please uninstall the app.

Links to Third Party Sites: The Services may include links that direct you to other websites or services whose privacy practices may differ from ours. If you submit information to any of those third party sites, your information is governed by their privacy policies, not this one. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy policy of any website you visit.

Third Party Services: We may offer you the ability to interact with or disclose information to third parties through the Services. For example, we may offer users the ability to login to the Services via a third-party service like Google, access embedded maps through Google Maps or interact with social media networks via links on the Services. When you intentionally interact with these third parties, we may disclose certain information to those third parties or receive information with those third parties, consistent with your privacy settings on the third-party service. Such information may include contact information, identification, and demographic information, and device information and identifiers. You should always check the privacy settings and notices in these third-party services to understand how those third-parties may use your information.

Third Party Widgets: Some of our services contain widgets and social media features, such as the Twitter "tweet" button or Facebook "like" button. These widgets and features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on the Services, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Widgets and social media features are either hosted by a third-party or hosted directly on our Services. You should always check the privacy settings and notices in these third-party services to understand how those third-parties may use your information.

(a) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, including to meet national security requirements, 
(b) enforce our agreements, policies and terms of service, 
(c) protect the security or integrity of our products and services, 
(d) protect Talentshow, our customers or the public from harm or illegal activities, or

4. HOW WE STORE & SECURE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

4.1 Information Storage & Security

We use industry standard technical and organizational measures to secure the information we store. 

While we implement safeguards designed to protect your information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, is absolutely safe from intrusion by others.

If you use our server or data center Services, responsibility for securing storage and access to the information you put into the Services rests with you and not Talentshow. 

5. HOW LONG WE KEEP INFORMATION

Talentshow will retain Customer Data in accordance with a Customer’s Account Settings and use of Services functionality and as required by applicable law. The Customer may also apply different settings to videos, messages or other types of Customer Data. The deletion of Customer Data and other use of the Services by the Customer may result in the deletion and/or de-identification of certain associated Other Information.

5.1 Account Information: We retain your account information for as long as your account is active and a reasonable period thereafter in case you decide to re-activate the Services.  We also retain some of your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements, to support business operations, and to continue to develop and improve our Services. 

Where we retain information for Service improvement and development, we take steps to eliminate information that directly identifies you, and we only use the information to uncover collective insights about the use of our Services, not to specifically analyze personal characteristics about you.  

5.2 Information You Share On The Services: If your account is deactivated or disabled, some of your information and the content you have provided will remain in order to allow other users to make full use of the Services.  For example, we continue to display messages you sent to the users that received them and continue to display content you provided, but when requested details that can identify you will be removed. 

5.3 Managed Accounts: If the Services are made available to you through an entity (e.g., your employer), we retain your information as long as required by the administrator of your account.  

5.4 Marketing Information: If you have elected to receive marketing emails from us, we retain information about your marketing preferences for a reasonable period of time from the date you last expressed interest in our Services, such as when you last opened an email from us or ceased using your Talentshow account. We retain information derived from cookies and other tracking technologies for a reasonable period of time from the date such information was created.

Talentshow may retain Other Information pertaining to you for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy (such as to provide the Services, including any optional features you use, and to provide customer support). This may include keeping your Other Information after you have deactivated your account for the period of time needed for Talentshow to pursue legitimate business interests, conduct audits, comply with (and demonstrate compliance with) legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

7. SECURITY

Talentshow takes security of data very seriously. Talentshow works hard to protect Information you provide from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure. These steps take into account the sensitivity of the Information we collect, process and store, and the current state of technology. 

Given the nature of communications and information processing technology, Talentshow cannot guarantee that Information during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others. When you click a link to a third-party site, you will be leaving our site and we don’t control or endorse what is on third-party sites.

8. AGE LIMITATIONS

Talentshow does not allow use of our Services and Websites by anyone younger than 16 years old, to the extent prohibited by applicable law. If you learn that anyone younger than 16 has unlawfully provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.

9. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

Talentshow may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. Laws, regulations, and industry standards evolve, which may make those changes necessary, or we may make changes to our services or business. We will post the changes to this page and encourage you to review our Privacy Policy to stay informed. If we make changes that materially alter your privacy rights, Talentshow will provide additional notice, such as via email or through the Services. If you disagree with the changes to this Privacy Policy, you should deactivate your Services account.

11. YOUR RIGHTS

Individuals in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Brazil, and across the globe have certain statutory rights in relation to their personal data. Subject to any exemptions provided by law, you may have the right to request access to your personal information, as well as to seek to update, delete, or correct this information. You can do this using the settings and tools provided in your Services account. If you cannot use the settings and tools, contact Talentshow support for additional assistance at privacy@talentshow.app. 

To the extent that Talentshow’s processing of your Personal Data is subject to the General Data Protection Regulation or other applicable laws requiring a legal basis for processing Personal Data, such as the UK Data Protection Act and the Brazilian General Data Protection Act (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados), Talentshow primarily relies on its legitimate interests, described above, to process your Personal Data. Where we rely on legitimate interests to process your Personal Data, you can object to that processing by contacting us as described in the “Contacting Talentshow” section below. In response to your objection, we will stop processing your information for the relevant purposes unless we have compelling grounds in the circumstances or the processing is necessary in the context of legal claims. Talentshow may also process Other Information that constitutes your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes and you have a right to object to Talentshow’s use of your Personal Data for this purpose at any time.

12. ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

The disclosures in this section apply only to California residents and are intended to supplement the Talentshow Privacy Policy with information required by California law.

This section provides additional details about the personal information we collect about California consumers and the rights afforded to them under the California Consumer Privacy Act or “CCPA,” as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act or “CPRA”.

California law requires that we detail the categories of personal information that we collect and disclose for certain “business purposes,” such as to service providers that assist us with securing our services or marketing our products, and to such other entities as described in earlier sections of Privacy Policy. In addition to the information provided above in the ‘Information We Collect & Receive’ section, we collect the following categories of personal information from you, your employer, data analytics providers, data brokers, and Third-Party Services for our business purposes:

    Identifiers/Contact Information;
    Commercial Information;
    Internet or Electronic Network Activity information;
    Financial Information;
    Geolocation Information;
    Professional or Employment-Related Information;
    Audio and Visual Data;
    In limited circumstances where allowed by law, information that may be protected under California or United States law; and
    Inferences drawn from any of the above categories.

We collect this information for the business and commercial purposes described in the ‘How We Process your Information and our Legal Bases for Doing So’ section above. We share this information as described in the ‘How We Share & Disclose Information We Collect’ section above. Talentshow does not sell (as such term is defined in the CCPA or otherwise) the personal information we collect (and will not sell it without providing a right to opt out). We may also share personal information (in the form of identifiers and internet activity information) with third party advertisers for purposes of targeting advertisements on non-Talentshow websites, applications, and services. In addition, we may allow third parties to collect personal information from our sites or services if those third parties are authorized service providers who have agreed to our contractual limitations as to their retention, use, and disclosure of such personal information, or if you use our sites or services to interact with third parties or direct us to disclose your personal information to third parties.

Subject to certain limitations, the CCPA provides California consumers the right to request to know more details about the categories or specific pieces of personal information we collect (including how we use, disclose, or may sell this information), to delete their personal information, to opt out of any “sales”, to know and opt out of sharing of personal information for delivering advertisements on non-Talentshow websites, and to not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

California consumers may make a request pursuant to their rights under the CCPA by contacting us at privacy@talentshow.app. We will verify your request using the information associated with your account, including email address. Government identification may be required. Consumers can also designate an authorized agent to exercise these rights on their behalf. Authorized agents must submit proof of authorization.

If you would like to opt-out of sharing activity based on your cookie identifiers, turn on a Global Privacy Control in your web browser or browser extension. Please see the California Privacy Protection Agency’s website at https://oag.ca.gov/privacy/ccpa for more information on valid Global Privacy Controls. If you would like to opt-out of sharing activity based on other identifiers (like email address or phone number), contact us in accordance with the “Contacting Talentshow” section, below.

13. OTHER IMPORTANT PRIVACY INFORMATION 

Notice to End Users Representing an Entity

Where the Services are made available to you through an entity (e.g. your employer), that entity is the administrator of the Services and is responsible for the accounts and/or Service sites over which it has control. If this is the case, please direct your data privacy questions to your administrator, as your use of the Services is subject to that entity's policies. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of an administrator's entity, which may be different than this policy. 

Administrators are able to:

    - access information in and about your account;
    - access or retain information stored as part of your account;
    - require you to reset your account password; or
    - restrict, suspend or terminate your access to the Services;

In some cases, administrators can also:

    - change the email address associated with your account;
    - change your information, including profile information;
    - restrict, suspend or terminate your account access;
    - restrict your ability to edit, restrict, modify or delete information

Even if the Services are not currently administered to you by an entity, or if you use an email address provided by an entity (such as your work email address) to access the Services, then the owner of the domain associated with your email address (e.g. your employer) may assert administrative control over your account and use of the Services.

If you do not want an administrator to be able to assert control over your account or use of the Services, you should deactivate your membership with the relevant entity or use your personal email address to register for or access the Services.  If an administrator has not already asserted control over your account or access to the Services, you can update the email address associated with your account through your account settings in your profile.  Once an administrator asserts control over your account or use of the Services, you will no longer be able to change the email address associated with your account without administrator approval.

Please contact your entity or refer to your administrator’s entity policies for more information.
