In order to provide our service, we capture and store some information about you, and the users uploading material to the service:

We don’t use data from uploaded files for anything, except for:

  1. Detecting its MIME-type
  2. Generating preview on request
  3. Converting or modifying the files on request from Account owner of that file

All data stored by us is only used for internal processing, and never sold or otherwise given away. In addition to that, we use the following third party services which also store data about you:

  1. Amazon Web Services (for data)
  2. Google Analytics, Kissmetrics (for statistics)

If Account owner will explicitly decline gathering of statistics on “his side” (in browser or mobile device), we will gather only anonymous stats that we are using only to improve the service.

All gathered statistics will be used only by Uploadcare and none of that information will be shared with 3rd parties. We can publish some numbers on our site or blog for marketing purposes.
