1. General Information

1.1. Vidzely's Role in Processing of Personal Data

Certain Data from or about you may be collected or otherwise processed when you use the Vidzely Service, regardless of whether you do so as a Viewer, Visitor, User, or Partner (as defined in the Vidzely Terms of Use).

If you reside in a country that is part of the European Economic Area, the GDPR is applicable to the collection of your Personal Data. If you reside outside of the European Economic Area, local privacy laws are applicable to such collection, generally those of your country of residence.

Vidzely as Data Controller: Vidzely is a Data Controller when we process your Data based on purposes that we define and using the means we choose.

Vidzely as Data Processor: We may contract with some service providers to help us implement certain aspects of your Data Processing. In doing so, these service providers act on our behalf following our instructions and thus are considered our Data Processors.

Vidzely as Joint Data Controller: Vidzely is a Joint Data Controller when Vidzely and its Commercial Partners process your Personal Data together for a common purpose and using the means we jointly choose.

Commercial Partners as Independent Data Controllers: Our Commercial Partners are independent Data Controllers when they (or their respective Data Processors) process your Personal Data for purposes that they define independently and using the means they determine. Depending on the applicable local laws and existing technical protocols, Vidzely's role is limited to the collection of your consent on behalf of these Commercial Partners, and to the transmission of collected consent to them and providing you with access to their respective privacy policies and consent management mechanisms.

Vidzely as Data Processor for User Content: Vidzely is a Data Processor when Vidzely participates in the implementation of some Personal Data Processing operations carried out by our Commercial Partners, who remain Data Controllers. In particular, if your Content contains Third Party Personal Data (ex. a video you have uploaded on the Vidzely Service which includes images of a friend of yours), Vidzely is your Data Processor. Further details relating to these processing operations are available in our Terms of Use.

1.2. Legal Grounds for Processing Personal Data

1.2.1. Legal Grounds

The GDPR provides several legal basis upon which Vidzely can rely for Processing of Personal Data, namely consent, contractual necessity, compliance with a legal obligation, vital interests of data subjects, public interest or legitimate interest. Similarly, applicable laws may provide for equivalent or additional legal grounds.

Because our Service is provided to you through different digital properties, namely through Vidzely website and app and through our Video Player embedded on third-party websites or apps, our Processing of your Personal Data and applicable legal basis differ depending on the part of our Service you use.

When you access our Service through the Vidzely website and app, we rely on the following legal basis:

Contract: We rely on contract when processing of your Personal Data is required to provide you with our Service, including when you choose to use its optional features. In particular, we rely on contract we have with you (i.e. on the Vidzely Service Terms of Use) when we process your Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • Display of Content and ads: Vidzely Service offers access to Content in association with ads. Presence of both, Content and ads is an essential and non-dissociable part of our Service. Consequently, when we use your Personal Data to display Content and ads we rely on contract as legal ground.
  • Content recommendation: Presence of relevant Content is our Service's major feature. Consequently, processing of your Personal Data by our content recommendation tools is based on contract.
  • Use of our Service: We process your Personal Data to prevent unauthorized access to our Service, including by so-called bots, and enable you to use our Service features. For example, when you upload videos, we store your Content and if you are entitled to receive payments from us, your payment details and information linked the amount to be paid are used by us to process such payment. To prevent unauthorized access to our Service we may use tracking technologies that analyze your navigation and device characteristics to detect and block unauthorized access attempts by bots and other non-human technologies.
  • Account creation and management: Your email address, password, age and username are mandatory elements of each account. Processing of these account credentials and related information for the purpose of managing your account is based on contract.
  • Respect of parties\' obligations: When you access our Service, you accept our Terms of Use, i.e. you enter into an agreement with Vidzely. In general, we rely on contract when processing of your Personal Data is necessary for the execution of that agreement.

Legitimate Interest: We rely on legitimate interest when processing your Personal Data is motivated by our or your interest or that of third parties (ex. other end-users of our Service, advertisers, etc.). For example, we rely on legitimate interest when we process your Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • Content measurement: When you access Content belonging to Content creators on our Service, they wish to know how it is perceived by the viewers. This knowledge is also useful to us as it helps us better understand how our Service is used. When we process your Personal Data to measure Content performance, we rely on our own and Content creators\' legitimate interest.
  • Ads measurement: Advertisers pay to have their ads shown on our Service. As a result, they wish to know if their ads are watched and whether they are efficient. This knowledge is also useful to us as it helps us better understand how our Service is used. When we process your Personal Data to measure ads\' performance, we rely on our own and advertisers\' legitimate interest.
  • Service and audience analysis, research and development, and Service improvement: The relevance of user experience and a free-of-charge access to content are key features of the Vidzely Service. Vidzely, like any other business, wants to continuously provide a high-quality service while remaining profitable. That requires a proper understanding of how the use of our Service evolves, what our end-users expect from it and how to develop and finance the new sought-for features. We analyze the use of our Service to innovate and deliver a service we believe our end-users want while attempting to limit, as much as possible, any associated fees. We design, test and implement new operational and revenue-generating features. When we process your Personal Data to analyze and improve our Service we rely on Vidzely's and our end-users\' legitimate interest.
  • Fraud detection and Service security: Vidzely continuously labors to provide a secure environment for all. When the implemented security and anti-fraud measures exceed what represents our legal obligation or contractual commitment and result in processing of your Personal Data, we rely on legitimate interest of parties involved, be it Visitors, Content creators, advertisers, Vidzely or third parties.

Legal Obligation: We rely on legal obligation when processing your Personal Data is required by applicable laws. For example, we rely on legal obligation when we process your Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • Retention and mandatory communication of Personal Data to competent authorities: As a content hosting platform, we are legally required to keep certain limited information about our Users and, if conditions defined by the applicable laws are met, share it with competent public authorities. For example, if you upload, modify, or delete Content on our platform, we must keep records that identify you (ex. your email address) and some technical information related to these operations. If requested by the competent authorities, we are obliged to provide them with this information. Upon discovery of certain manifestly illegal content on our platform, we must report its presence to the authorities and, if requested, share information about its uploader.
  • Age collection: Some of the legal obligations imposed on online service providers depend on the age of their end-users. Consequently, when we ask for your birthdate during the account-opening process, we do so to be able to comply with these obligations.
  • Mandatory communication: In some cases, we are legally obliged to send you information whether by email or otherwise. For example, if your Content is moderated, we have to inform you about it. Consequently, when we use your email to send such notification, we do so to comply with our legal obligation.
  • Security: Various laws impose security obligations on services like ours. For example, the GDPR imposes on entities processing personal data an obligation to implement adequate security measures that, without warranting absence of breaches, protect processed data. When we use your Personal Data for the purpose of these security measures, we do so to comply with our legal obligation.
  • Content moderation: As a content hosting platform, we have a legal obligation to disable access to any hosted Content reasonably believed to be illicit. Consequently, when we process your Personal Data in relation to Content moderation, we do so to comply with our legal obligation.

Vital Interest: On rare occasions we may rely on vital interest when processing your Personal Data. For example, when videos present on our platform constitute an imminent vital risk to somebody, we may disclose its Uploader's information to competent public authorities before a valid order is presented to us.

Consent: We rely on consent when processing your Personal Data to determine what interests you have and show you ads that are adapted to your interests. When there is no already established legal basis for such disclosure, we also ask for your consent to share your Personal Data with third parties.

Note that when our Processing of your Personal Data is based on consent, we ask you to communicate your consent via a positive action (e.g. by clicking the "Accept" button on our Site or Video Player or through another method compliant under the applicable laws). When Processing of your Personal Data is based on legal grounds other than consent, we provide you with information regarding the applicable legal grounds and, when applicable, provide you with means to oppose to it.

1.2.2. Refusal or Opposition to Processing

When Processing is based on consent or legitimate interest, you can always choose not to consent to Processing of some of your Data, withdraw your consent, or oppose to such Processing (unless the applicable laws authorize us not to take into account such decision) as further explained herein. However, this may limit your ability to take full advantage of the many features we offer and, consequently, deteriorate your user experience. Furthermore, Vidzely Service offers to Visitors access to a multitude of videos without charging a corresponding fee. This is possible only by associating advertisements with the available videos and funding our Service through means other than access fees. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE VIDZELY ENTERPRISE SOLUTION VIDEO PLAYER, CONTENT AND ADS ARE BOTH INTEGRAL PARTS OF OUR SERVICE AND THE VIDZELY SERVICE CANNOT EXIST WITHOUT EITHER OF THEM. NOT CONSENTING TO PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA WILL NOT ELIMINATE OR LIMIT THE NUMBER OF ADS YOU ARE SHOWN; IT MAY SIMPLY RESULT IN ADS WHICH ARE MORE REPETITIVE AND LIKELY LESS INTERESTING TO YOU.

3. Information We Collect

We may collect Personal Data that can identify you directly, such as your name and email address, and other information that does not identify you directly. This Section explains what Personal Data we collect and how we collect such information.

We may combine the shared information with the information we collect from or about you and use it in the manner described in Section 4 of this Privacy Policy or as otherwise permitted by law.

3.2 How is the Data Collected?

3.2.1 Collection of Data through Use of Technologies

Like many online services, we use, directly or via our subcontractors, various technologies to collect usage data and store your user settings. The Data thus collected helps us propose, protect and improve the Vidzely Service and personalize your user experience, for example, by enabling you to access videos in a language corresponding to your browser's settings or in a format compatible with your device.

Despite the variety of the actual measures deployed, the various technologies used to collect data are commonly referred to as "cookies" or "trackers" and their use is regulated by "cookie laws." Whenever applicable laws subject the use of cookies to user consent, Vidzely asks for your consent prior to their use.

A "cookie" is a small data file that is installed on your device. A cookie lifespan is limited to its purpose and does not, in general, exceed 13 months. A cookie expires upon the end of its validity period unless it uses so-called "refresh" feature. It may be deleted before the end of its validity period by you or by the technologies you use (e.g. your browser).

Depending on the country you reside in, you may, at any time, manage your cookie settings and choose the purposes for which you consent to or refuse the use of cookies by accessing the "Manage Cookies" section accessible from the footer of our website and settings of our app.

Cookies and Local Storage: We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to offer you a high quality Service, better understand how you interact with the Vidzely Service or with marketing material advertising the Vidzely Service outside of our Service; to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the Vidzely Service; to use technical and automated means to display Content and advertising based on your Data; to respect the rights of the Content rights holders or that of advertisers and to be in conformity with obligations imposed by applicable laws. We may create a unique device or user ID ("Service ID") for you and store it in a cookie so we can customize your experience based on your preferences.

We may collect information through other kinds of local storage (also referred to as "Flash cookies") and HTML5 local storage, including in connection with features such as volume/mute settings for the Video Player.

Web Beacons, Pixels and other Trackers: Web beacons or pixel tags are similar to cookies and can be embedded within web pages, videos, or emails. These technologies are mainly used to learn whether you have viewed a particular web page, ad, or email message; and determine other usage details including the time and date on which you viewed Content, the IP address of your computer, and the URL of the web page from which the Content was viewed.

Mobile Device Identifiers and Software Development Kits ("SDKs"): We may use or work with third parties, including our Commercial Partners and service providers, who use mobile SDKs to collect information such as advertising identifiers (e.g., "ad-ID" or "IDFA") and information related to how mobile devices interact with the Vidzely Service. An SDK is computer code that app developers can include in their apps to enable ads to be shown, data to be collected and related services and functionality to be implemented.

3.2.2 Collection of Data through Other Means

We may receive Data directly from you (ex. when you open an account, fill-in a questionnaire or contact our Support Team), from some of our Data Partners (ex. general information about your centers of interests deduced by our Data Partners when you use their services or those of third parties) or we may deduce certain information about you based on the information we have.

3.2.3 Use of AI Tools for Processing of Your Data

Vidzely may process your Personal Data using various technologies, which can be traditional software or new technologies including AI (Artificial Intelligence) tools. In particular, AI-based technologies may help us to analyze our Service, prevent non-compliance with our Terms and Conditions, provide you with efficient Service features such as content search and recommendation, or with advanced Content management tools (ex. subtitles or transcripts in foreign languages).

AI-based tools help us with operating our Service in an efficient and consistent manner, but their use does not result in automated decisions impacting your rights or obligations. For example, we may use AI-based tools as part of our Content moderation process to detect suspicious content (ex. by detecting language generally considered as discriminatory) but the decision about whether or not to take down a given Content is eventually always taken by a human moderator and subject to your right to appeal.

We may collect information about you from third-party sources, including:

Social Media Platforms: If you connect your account to social media platforms, we may collect information from those platforms, including your profile information, friends list, and content you have shared.

Authentication Services: If you sign in using third-party authentication services, we may receive information from those services, including your name, email address, and profile picture.

Analytics Providers: We may receive information from analytics providers about how users interact with the Service.

Payment Processors: We may receive information from payment processors about your transactions and payment methods.

Public Sources: We may collect information from publicly available sources to verify your identity or enhance your profile.

4. PURPOSES FOR DATA PROCESSING

4.1 Purposes for which Data is Processed by Vidzely

4.1.1 General

We process Data, either directly or via our service providers to create an engaging and relevant experience for our users, and to ensure that the rights and interests of Content right holders and advertisers are respected. We may share some of your data with our Commercial Partners to operate and improve our Service and to better understand what you may be interested in.

We use all of the legitimately collected or received information to help us provide and support the Vidzely Service with a first-class user experience that is adapted to each user's tastes, as varied as they may be. The way we use the Data about you depends on how you use the Vidzely Service.

Note that videos accessible on our Service, be it Content or video ads, do not belong to Vidzely. They are provided by various right holders who, by sharing their videos on Vidzely Service, decide which of their videos they make available to you. They relate to a variety of topics, are in multiple languages, they can be accessed from a number of electronic devices and through different browsers. As a content hosting platform Vidzely does not curate the videos that are accessible to you. It means that we do not have a team of content editors offering you a selection of Content believed to correspond to your tastes. Instead, we use automated technologies to adapt Content and ads to technical characteristics of your device (ex. to show you videos in a format compatible with your device and in a language of your browser) and to your interests.

4.1.2 Purposes for which Data is Processed

Vidzely may process the Data for the following purposes:

Provide the Vidzely Service: We use your Data to deliver the Service, i.e. to display Content and advertisements and to enable you to use each feature of our Service. For example, to allow you to connect to your account we collect your authentication data. To deliver a video in a format that works on a device you use, we collect its technical characteristics. If you have uploaded Content on our Service, we will use your Data to provide you with statistics on how your Content performs. If you use our monetization feature, your Data will be used to track your revenues. Our algorithms use, together with other data, information on Content you access and on how you interact with our Service to recommend Content that might be of interest to you.

Improve, Develop and Understand the Vidzely Service and our Audience: We process your Data to understand how our Service is used and interacted with and ultimately provide our end-users with the best user experience we can offer. We may conduct surveys and research to learn what is expected from our Service. We analyze the information that we have, evaluate and improve our existing products and services, develop and test new offerings or features in order to follow technological evolution and maintain the quality our end-users expect from our Service. We diversify our revenue sources and implement cost-reducing measures to keep at the minimum eventual service fees, and, in particular, to maintain a free-of-charge access to Content hosted on our Service.

Communicate with You: We may use your Data to send you newsletters and marketing communications, communicate with you about the Vidzely Service and inform you about changes of our Service legal terms and policies. We also record the privacy preferences you communicate to us. We may use your information to respond to you when you contact us, or for any other purpose that is disclosed to you at the time we collect the Data or that is related to a request made by you or related to you.

Show and Adapt Ads: Vidzely offers its users the opportunity to watch numerous videos without charging any fee in return. Such free of charge service can only be possible thanks to the presence of advertisements and other alternative revenues. We may use Data we have, including information received from our Commercial Partners, to evaluate and improve our advertising and analytics systems so that the ads shown to you on and off our Services are customized and of real interest to you. We also use Data to limit the quantity of advertisements you are shown on our Service to allow you to fully enjoy the Content. By processing some of your Data we also measure the effectiveness and reach of ads and services. Your Data may be shared with our Commercial Partners or some of our Data Partners to inform them about your decision whether or not to allow processing of your Personal Data and, subject to existence of applicable legal basis, to allow them to estimate whether the products or service for which they run advertising campaigns may be of interest to you.

Pay You: If you are a member of the Vidzely Partner Program, we use your billing information, such as your billing address or payment methods details, to proceed with payment of sums generated under our Partner Program monetization features. If you choose a third-party payment method, we will communicate to the payment service provider of your choice all information necessary to process due payments and may receive from such payment service provider the receiving account details and related payment confirmations. Note that we do not use or otherwise access your credit card information.

Identify Your Geographic Location: We may collect your device's location data (limited to the city level only). This information not only allows us to serve you Content related to your local area, such as local news and sports videos, but enables us to ensure the respect of Content geo-restrictions imposed by the Content right holders. This Data may also be used to tailor advertising to you based on your location.

Elaborate Aggregated or Anonymized Statistics: We may "de-identify" information about you and/or other users, which means that the Data is modified (anonymized or aggregated with other information) so it no longer personally identifies you. We may then use this "de-identified" information for any legitimate internal and external business purpose, including for research and analysis of the Vidzely Service, improving our capacity to deliver customized advertisements, and for promoting our Service to future users, Commercial Partners and other business partners.

Ensure Safety and Security of Vidzely Service and its Conformity with Applicable Laws: We may use the Data to ensure the overall security of our Service including anti-fraud protection. Our dedicated engineering teams do so by using tracking technologies, automated procedures and advanced technologies such as data encryption and machine learning. The technical tools used evolve to adapt to the ever-evolving security threats faced by our Service. For example, to fight security risks related to malvertising (e.g. fake ads that contain viruses or redirecting to fraudulent websites), we use trackers verifying the authenticity of an ad shown to you. Consequently, your Data may be processed as part of an investigation of suspicious account activities or violations of our legal terms and policies. In particular, we may use trackers on your devices and process your Personal Data to detect and prevent unauthorized access to any part of our Service by bots and similar technologies (i.e. to verify that you are not a bot) and your IP address may be checked against a list of IP addresses identified as corresponding to bots. In conformity with our legal obligations, Vidzely maintains connection logs linked to each User's account activities and communicates them, if requested to do so pursuant to applicable legal procedures, to duly authorized public authorities.

Share Your Data: Operation of our Service may require share of your Data. Share of Data is not a purpose in itself but serves distinct purposes underlying our relationship with the entities we disclose your Data to. For example, in general, the delivery of digital ads requires disclosure of some of your Personal Data to companies participating in the ad-delivery process (ex. to advertisers, agencies, technical facilitators, etc.). The quantity and type of Data disclosed depends on whether or not your consent to being shown targeted ads. Additionally, we may share your Data with Selected Commercial Partners we closely cooperate with (some of which are our Affiliates). We do so to better understand what interests you and offer you better services, Content and ads that are of interest to you. Some of your Data may be disclosed to some of our Data Partners for further use of fostering AI development.

4.2 Purposes for which Data is Processed by our Commercial Partners

When you watch Content or ads on the Vidzely Service, our Commercial Partners may collect and further process, either directly or via their respective subcontractors, information about you and your use of our Service. They may use this information, including in combination with other data they have access to, in order to adapt content and ads that may be shown to you on our and on third parties\' services. While doing so, our Commercial Partners process your Personal Data in their capacity of Data Controllers and pursuant to their own privacy policies.

When advertisements are shown to you on our Service, some Data, in accordance with industry-wide standard technical protocols, is disclosed to or collected by our Commercial Partners to allow delivery of an ad on the device you use or for other ad-related purposes (ex. security, ad measurement, service improvement etc.). Such Data may include your digital identifiers, information about your device and its settings, the url of a website, the content and the associated ad you are watching, your approximate location, the socio-demographic or interest-based category we think you belong to (based on the information we have collected from or about you and/or obtained from third parties), as well as your privacy choices.

Vidzely works with a large number of ad-related Commercial Partners. Their list is published on our Service and may be consulted at all times from within the "Manage Cookies" section accessible from the footer of our website and settings of our app. Note that it does not mean that when you visit our Service all of these Commercial Partners process your Personal Data. Only the Commercial Partners (or their technical service providers) involved in posting the ads shown to you or publishing Content that you watch on Vidzely Service process your data.

We use the information we collect for various purposes, including:

Providing and Improving the Service: We use your information to provide, maintain, and improve the Service, including processing your requests, delivering content, personalizing your experience, and developing new features.

Account Management: We use your information to create and manage your account, authenticate your identity, process your transactions, and communicate with you about your account.

Content Delivery: We use your information to deliver, display, and recommend content that may be of interest to you, including personalized video recommendations, trending content, and content from creators you follow.

Communication: We use your information to communicate with you about the Service, including sending service-related notifications, responding to your inquiries, providing customer support, and sending marketing communications (with your consent where required).

Analytics and Research: We use your information to analyze usage patterns, conduct research, measure the effectiveness of our features, and improve our understanding of user preferences and behavior.

Security and Safety: We use your information to detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, security threats, and other harmful activities, and to enforce our Terms of Use and Community Guidelines.

Legal Compliance: We use your information to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, and governmental requests, and to protect our rights, privacy, safety, and property, and that of our users and third parties.

Business Operations: We use your information for business purposes, including data analysis, auditing, developing new products and services, enhancing existing products and services, identifying usage trends, and evaluating the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

5. DATA RECIPIENTS

We may share personally identifiable or non-personally identifiable information collected from or about you with third parties, or allow you to share your personal information with third parties, such as social networks, as explained further below ("Data Recipients"). We require such Data Recipients to adhere to strict confidentiality obligations in a way that is consistent with this Privacy Policy and the agreements that we may enter into with them.

5.1 Third Party Login Services

If you connect to the Vidzely Service through a third-party log-in system (ex. your Google or Apple account), you may be choosing to share information about your activities on the Vidzely Service with that third-party. Furthermore, if you visit Vidzely while logged-in to their accounts, then those entities may record your browser details and combine technical information from your web browser with other information that each of them already knows about you. Your decision to share information about your activities on the Vidzely Service with these third-parties may result in Vidzely sending relevant information about you to these third parties which may then use that information or render it visible to their own users in accordance with applicable law, their own data and privacy policies, and your privacy settings.

5.2 Commercial Partners

We work with a number of Commercial Partners who help us offer and improve the Vidzely Service. Commercial Partners include Selected Commercial Partners, Data Partners, Content uploaders, as well as advertisers and other actors of the digital industry. We may disclose information collected from or about you to such Commercial Partners (or their authorized service providers) when we are legally authorized to do so, but such disclosure is always accompanied by appropriate technical, organizational or contractual measures aimed at ensuring the integrity and security of your information (e.g., aggregation, anonymization, etc.).

In particular, we may share information, generally in the aggregated, encrypted or anonymized form, about you with advertisers and advertising-related service providers, for the purposes described above under Section 4.2, (e.g., to deliver advertising videos), to make ads relevant and interesting to you or to measure and improve the effectiveness of advertising campaigns or with our Data Partners to foster their development of new technologies, including artificial intelligence. Note that we do not share directly identifiable information about you (such as your email address) with advertisers and advertising-related service providers.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share your information with advertising partners to deliver personalized advertisements, but we do not sell your information for this purpose.

5.3 Service Providers

5.3.1 General: Like most companies, we contract with third parties to provide us with specialized services in connection with our business activities. The services we contract vary and evolve in time and include: payment solutions, analyzing and processing data (e.g. provision of analytics software that helps us improve ads relevancy), hosting our websites and Content, providing customer support, communicating with you (e.g. email or push notification systems) or otherwise help us provide the Vidzely Service.

When the delivery of these services requires so (and if you consented so or if we are otherwise authorized to do so), we share some of your Data with our Service Providers. Our Service Providers commit to confidentiality obligations in conformity with this Privacy Policy and with the contracts we sign with them.

5.3.2 Audience Measurement Providers: Our Commercial Partners, such as content providers and advertisers, seek to measure the performance of their videos across many platforms, including the Vidzely Service. Accordingly, Vidzely may use and permit the use on its Service of independent, industry-standard, third-party measurement solutions (e.g. Nielsen or comScore) that enables us or our Commercial Partners to include your video views in our or their measurement statistics. We may also share our own usage statistics, in anonymized or aggregated form, with these Commercial Partners.

5.4 Public Authorities and Legal Counsels

In some instances, we may be required to disclose information from or about you to public authorities or to legal counsels without notifying you or giving you the opportunity to object. We may disclose your information in good-faith to protect the legal rights of Vidzely, of our affiliates or Commercial Partners, and of each of our respective equity holders, directors, officers, employees, or agents, and technical service providers acting as our processors or sub-processors; to protect the safety and security of our users or of third parties; to enforce our Terms of Use; to prevent fraud; for risk management purposes; and to comply with or respond to the law, a legal process, or a request for cooperation by a government entity. However, it is Vidzely's policy, whenever reasonably possible and legally permissible, to promptly notify you upon receipt of a subpoena, court order or other document requesting your Data, so that you will have adequate opportunity to initiate appropriate legal proceedings.

Furthermore, if you notify us that you believe your legal rights have been violated by Vidzely or by another user of the Vidzely Service, we may provide the Data that you provide to us to others to the extent that we believe it is necessary to evaluate and respond to your complaint.

5.5 Third Parties in Connection with certain Corporate Transactions

If we sell all or part of our business, make a transfer of assets, or are otherwise involved in a change-of-control transaction, or in the event of bankruptcy, we may transfer or share information from or about you to one or more third parties as part of the transaction, including as part of the due diligence process. In such case, your Data would be transferred or shared only as an integral part of the underlying transfer of the Vidzely Service (or part thereof) and not sold separately to third parties.

5.6 When Sharing of Your Data is Consented or Accepted by You or if You Instruct Us to Share it

When you use Vidzely Service's features: Some features of the Vidzely Service may enable you to share videos through our Video Player, along with any information you choose to share. Ex: you may choose to share videos through your own websites, applications or social network channels, such as Meta or X. If you hold an account with Meta or X, you may choose to share information about a video on the Vidzely Service with Meta or X users through a dedicated sharing feature on our Service.

When you contact our Support service: In order to provide you with requested assistance, we may have to share your information with third parties. Ex. if you claim that a video available on the Vidzely Service infringes upon your rights, we may communicate your contact details to a User who uploaded that video.

When you agree so: Ex. if you agree to participate in a market study, answer a questionnaire, participate in a sweepstake or similar event, we may share your information with third parties as described in the applicable notice.

When we receive a request from a third party to exercise their statutory rights: Ex., if your Content contains Personal Data of third parties, we may, in conformity with our Terms of Use, communicate your contact details to enable them to exercise their statutory rights. We remind you that you are a Data Controller of Third-Party Personal Data contained in your Content. For example, when your video shows your friends their images are their personal data and you are a Data Controller of your friends\' personal data. As a Data Controller you have a legal obligation to reply to their requests to exercise their privacy rights. For that reason, if we receive a request to delete your video because it contains Third-Party Personal Data (or any other similar request) we will forward it to you, inform the requestor that you are the Data Controller of their Personal Data, and communicate your contact details.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The retention period may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.

Account Information: We retain your account information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with the Service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information, except where we are required to retain it for legal, regulatory, or business purposes.

Content: Content you upload to the Service may be retained even after you delete your account if it has been shared, commented on, or otherwise used by other users, or if we are required to retain it for legal or business purposes.

Transaction Information: We retain transaction and payment information for as long as necessary to process payments, resolve disputes, and comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

Log Information: We retain log information for a limited period, typically up to 12 months, unless we are required to retain it for longer periods for security, legal, or business purposes.

Legal Requirements: We may retain certain information for longer periods if required by law, regulation, or court order, or if we believe retention is necessary to protect our rights or the rights of others.

When we no longer need your personal information, we will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with our data retention policies and applicable laws.

7. YOUTH RESTRICTIONS AND PARENTAL CONTROL

Children who are under the legal age in their country of residence to enter into an agreement with a digital service provider are defined in this Privacy Policy as "Juniors" and are not permitted to register with Vidzely, i.e. are not allowed to open an account with our Service.

The age limit that determines whether a person is a Junior is defined by the laws applicable in your country of residence and generally varies from 13 to 16 years of age.

In addition, Juniors should not use or access our Service without the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian.

Vidzely Service is intended for the general public. It does not specifically cater to any particular age or interest group. When you visit our Service without being logged-in, we do not know your age. Despite lacking that knowledge, we have designed some Service features protecting Young audiences. In particular, a parental control is activated by default when using our Service.

If you are the parent or legal guardian of a Junior, and that child has somehow registered with Vidzely without your approval and contrary to our Terms and Conditions, please contact Vidzely's support team, available 24/7 through the Vidzely Help Center to initiate an account deletion procedure. When submitting your request, please provide us with a sworn statement confirming that you are either a parent exercising full parental rights or a legal guardian of the child and indicate your full name and address, the child's full name and address, your relationship to the child and your email address. Vidzely will use this information only to process your request and verify that you are the child's parent or legal guardian, and for no other purposes.

8. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information:

Access: You have the right to access and receive a copy of your personal information that we hold.

Correction: You have the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.

Deletion: You have the right to request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.

Portability: You have the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit that information to another service provider.

Restriction: You have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.

Objection: You have the right to object to processing of your personal information for certain purposes, including direct marketing.

Withdraw Consent: If we rely on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

Opt-Out: You can opt out of certain data collection and processing activities, including marketing communications, cookies, and location tracking, through your account settings or device settings.

Please note that we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We may also refuse or limit your request in certain circumstances, such as when we are required to retain information for legal purposes or when your request would adversely affect the rights of others.

9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect and store information about your preferences and usage patterns. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website.

Types of Cookies We Use:

Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the Service to function properly and cannot be disabled. They enable basic functions like page navigation, account access, and security features.

Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use the Service, such as which pages you visit most often, to help us improve the Service's performance and user experience.

Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the Service to remember choices you make, such as your language preference, to provide enhanced and personalized features.

Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests, and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

Analytics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Service by collecting and reporting information anonymously.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse or accept cookies, and to delete cookies that have already been set. However, if you disable cookies, some features of the Service may not function properly.

We also use web beacons, pixel tags, and similar technologies to track your interactions with the Service and to measure the effectiveness of our communications and advertising campaigns.

10. DATA SECURITY AND ACCOUNT ACCESS

10.1 Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

Encryption: We use industry-standard encryption technologies to protect your information during transmission and storage, including SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit and encryption at rest for stored data.

Access Controls: We limit access to your personal information to authorized employees, contractors, and service providers who need access to perform their job functions.

Security Monitoring: We continuously monitor our systems for security threats and vulnerabilities and implement security updates and patches as needed.

Data Backup: We regularly back up your information to prevent data loss and ensure business continuity.

Incident Response: We have procedures in place to detect, respond to, and recover from security incidents.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You should use a strong password and not share your account credentials with others.

We remind you that Vidzely is a content hosting platform and not a content storage service and that you are responsible for keeping copies of any Content you upload on our Service.

10.2 Account Access

If you have an account with us, your Personal Data can be reviewed online from within your account settings. You can also update your information either via the account settings or by contacting us (see Section 14 "Contact Us" for more details).

Your account is unique to you and protected by a user-generated password. We advise you to choose a unique and complex password, not to disclose it to third parties, and to change it if you have any doubts as to its confidentiality. Do not hesitate to contact us if you observe any suspicious activity on your account. Note that if you use third party log-in solution (e.g. Google), Vidzely does not store or manage your password. Instead, it is the policies of the third-party log-in solution that apply to the management of your password.

If you allow others to use your account (including by authorizing others to set up specific accesses within your account), they may be able to view information about your account (e.g. your email address) or any of the playlists created within your library (e.g. videos you have viewed). You should exercise caution while handling and disclosing your Personal Data on our Service and avoid sending it through insecure email.

11. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately, and we will delete such information from our systems.

If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, you represent that you have obtained parental or guardian consent to use the Service and agree to this Privacy Policy. We recommend that parents and guardians supervise their children's online activities and teach them about safe internet practices.

We comply with applicable laws regarding children's privacy, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in the United States and similar laws in other jurisdictions.

12. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS AND STANDARD CONTRACTUAL CLAUSES

12.1 General Information

Processing of your Personal Data takes place in the EEA and outside of the EEA. When storing your Data Vidzely uses its own servers as well as those of its service providers including cloud storage service providers. Vidzely's policy is to use servers located in Europe, whenever technically possible as further described below.

Storage of Content: Your Content other than Comments: Content is stored on servers located in the EEA and owned by Vidzely or by our cloud storage service providers. If you decide to make your Content available outside of the EEA, an additional temporary "cache" copy of extracts of your Content may be created on servers operated by our cloud storage service providers and located outside of the EEA. Creation of that cache copy is inherent to the video delivery technology and serves to reduce the latency, i.e. enables a viewer to see a video faster by shortening the time between the request to see a video and the appearance of that video on the viewer's screen. A cache copy is stored on servers that are geographically close to a viewer. Creation of cache copies on non-EEA servers results in a transfer of your Personal Data, namely, extracts of your Content, outside the EEA.

Comments: Depending on the territory you access the Vidzely Service from, you may have a possibility to comment on the Content available on our Service. Your Comments are stored outside the EEA on servers used by our service provider assisting us with operating the comment feature.

Your Operation of the Vidzely Service: Operation of the Vidzely Service involves cooperation of all companies belonging to the Vidzely group. Some of these companies are located outside the EEA. Consequently, non-EEA Vidzely entities may process your Personal Data outside the EEA, namely in the USA, Singapore or other countries in which members of their staff operate.

Service Features: Display of ads: when you are shown an ad, your Personal Data may be transferred outside of the EEA if an advertiser or a technical intermediary process it in such territory. Service features other than display of ads: Vidzely Service enables various features, ex. storage of Content, display of Content, statistics, customer support, Content search or recommendation. The Data thus processed is stored on servers owned by Vidzely and by our services providers (ex. cloud-storage service providers, customer support, business analytic tools, etc.) and is analyzed using Vidzely's and our service providers\' tools.

12.2 Data Processors/ Service Providers

Vidzely uses services of different Data Processors/ Service Providers. A list of Vidzely's Service Providers is accessible from our website or by contacting us.

12.3 Legal Mechanisms Relied Upon

We may disclose your Data to third parties, be it our service providers, our Commercial Partners or public authorities, including those located outside of your country of residence. Vidzely respects privacy rights, and strives to collect, use and disclose your Data strictly as necessary and in a manner consistent with the applicable laws, including when such processing of your Data is carried out outside of the country of your residence. In particular, Vidzely transfers the Data of EEA residents to non-EEA countries, only when sufficient level of protection is ensured.

Note that the competent EEA authorities have determined a list of non-EEA countries considered as providing an adequate level of protection. Transfer of Personal Data to such countries does not require additional safeguards. When transfer of EEA residents Data by Vidzely is undertaken to countries that are not on this list and is not otherwise authorized by the applicable laws, such transfer relies on the following mechanisms to ensure the security of your Data:

  • The Data Privacy Framework (for transfers to the U.S. only), or
  • the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, accessible here and accompanying technical measures, if applicable, or
  • Binding Corporate Rules in place within multinational organizations, or
  • derogative mechanism as provided in article 49 of GDPR, if applicable.

Note that because your Content is your Personal Data, by making it available to viewers outside of the EEA, you render your Personal Data present in these territories as well.

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your country.

When we transfer your information to other countries, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your information receives an adequate level of protection, including:

Standard Contractual Clauses: We use standard contractual clauses approved by relevant data protection authorities to ensure adequate protection for your information.

Adequacy Decisions: We may transfer information to countries that have been recognized as providing adequate protection for personal information.

Consent: In some cases, we may transfer information with your explicit consent.

By using the Service, you consent to the transfer of your information to countries outside your country of residence, including countries that may not have the same data protection laws as your country.

13. Third-Party Links and Services

The Service may contain links to third-party websites, services, or resources that are not owned or controlled by Vidzely. This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party websites or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any third-party websites or services that you visit or use.

When you interact with third-party services through the Service, such as social media platforms or payment processors, your information may be collected and processed by those third parties in accordance with their privacy policies.

14. California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including:

Right to Know: You have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and sell about you.

Right to Delete: You have the right to request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.

Right to Opt-Out: You have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

To exercise your California privacy rights, please contact us using the contact information provided in Section 14 below. We will verify your identity before processing your request.

15. European Privacy Rights

15.1 Data Subjects Rights

Data Subjects Rights when Vidzely Acts as a Data Controller: Subject to statutory exemptions, if you reside in the EEA, you have the right to request from Vidzely the access, update, deletion, correction or transfer of your Personal Data that Vidzely processes in its capacity of a Data Controller. You can do so by using the settings and tools provided in your Vidzely account or by contacting Vidzely. If you encounter troubles using the settings and tools, or if you do not have a Vidzely account, reach out to the Vidzely Help Center via the dedicated section or send a letter to the attention of our Data Protection Officer at the following address: FindEdition, Legal Department, findedition.com. Please include within your request a clear description of your request and information about your country of residence, along with any information allowing us to identify your Vidzely account (such as the email address used to log into such account) or Data and to confirm your identity.

Depending on the nature of your request, you may be asked to provide further documents as needed to verify your identity and the conformity of your request with legal requirements and to identify the Personal Data that your request pertains to.

Furthermore, you are entitled to define and communicate to us the rules applicable to your Data upon your death.

Note that, in compliance with applicable laws, some of your Data may not be communicated, rectified or deleted despite your request to do so. In such case, we will inform you about our incapacity to fully comply with your request and the reasons behind that decision.

Data Subjects Rights when Vidzely Does Not Act as a Data Controller: We remind you that when using the Vidzely Service, your Data may be Processed by different entities acting in their capacity of a Data Controller. If we receive from you a legally compliant request (i.e. allowing us to identify the Data Controller and to reasonably establish that it is filed by a person whose Personal Data is processed) that pertains to Data processed by another Data Controller, we will, if reasonably possible, transmit the request and your contact details to such Data Controller and inform you about it.

In particular, if your Personal Data is present in Content available on the Vidzely Service, it is the User who uploaded that Content who is a Data Controller of your Personal Data, Vidzely's role being that of a Data Processor. In conformity with the GDPR, data subjects need to address their request to a Data Controller, i.e. to the User who uploaded that Content. For that reason, if we receive a request to delete a video showing your Personal Data (ex. a recording of you) we will forward it to the User who has uploaded that video, i.e. to the Data Controller. That User will have a month to reply (with a possibility of prolonging that delay by one additional month). Only in the absence of such reply, i.e. when a Data Controller does not respect its legal obligation to reply to a data subject request, Vidzely may disable access to such video.

During the review of your request by the Data Controller (i.e. by the Uploader), Content remains accessible on our Service unless your Personal Data that it contains belongs to a category of sensitive Personal Data (ex. health data) or is that of a minor. In such case, because that type of Personal Data requires a higher level of protection, we will temporarily block access to the Content while awaiting Data Controller's decision.

15.2 Data Privacy Framework

Your Personal Data may be processed by Vidzely entities located outside the EEA. When such processing involves transfers to the United States, we rely on appropriate safeguards including the Data Privacy Framework ("DPF") where applicable. You may regularly verify our self-certification with the DPF by consulting the list of its participants available on the official DPF website. If you have a question or wish to file a complaint regarding the covered data, please reach out to Vidzely using the contact information found in the "Contact Us" section of this Privacy Policy.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including:

Right of Access: You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal information and to access your personal information.

Right to Rectification: You have the right to have inaccurate personal information corrected.

Right to Erasure: You have the right to request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances.

Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.

Right to Data Portability: You have the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

Right to Object: You have the right to object to processing of your personal information for certain purposes.

Right to Withdraw Consent: If we rely on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

To exercise your European privacy rights, please contact us using the contact information provided in Section 14 below.
