Your Content

Podsworth is not a data storage or backup service. We do not backup your Content, and you are responsible for keeping backups of your own work. Your processed files and any associated files will be permanently deleted from our servers including all metadata and possible data from external services after seven (7) days, which we announce in order confirmation emails. We will, however, keep billing metadata associated with your orders in an internal database (e.g. how many hours of audio you have processed, etc.). Also, we may elect to store selected audio files (or excerpts thereof) from your Content in an internal storage space for the purpose of improving our audio processing algorithms. You will not have access to either this internal database or storage space, and we do not guarantee that we will keep your metadata or audio files for any specific period of time. When using our Service, you fully retain any rights that you have with regards to your Content, including copyright. The only rights with regards to your Content that you grant Podsworth are for the following two purposes: - To process your files, such that Podsworth can create new media files from your Content according to your instructions. - To improve our audio processing algorithms. For this purpose, you agree that your Content may be viewed and/or listened to by Podsworth employees or any person(s) contracted by Podsworth to work on our audio processing algorithms. We will not share your Content, or metadata associated with or generated from your Content, with third parties. We may occasionally share statistical data concerning processing times and other non-personal technical data with third parties, but if we do so, the data will be presented in an aggregated form that is not ascribable to an individual user.
