II. INFORMATION WE PROCESS

There are several categories of information that can be processed.

Functional Information

We ask for and process the following personal information when you use the App. This information is necessary for the adequate performance of the contract between you and us. Without such information it is impossible to provide complete functionality of the App and perform the requested services.

• Permissions for Camera, Photos, Files and Folders. After you grant us the relevant permission, we may have technical access to your Camera that is required to be able to scan documents via the App and/or take photos you want to add to your documents (applicable with respect to Forma iOS App and Forma Android App). Additionally, if you try to upload any file from your Photos or Files and Folders to the App, the relevant technical access of the App to your Photos or Files and Folders is required. The technical access you provide to your Photos, Files and Folders is necessary for us solely to enable you to upload photos, images, files from your device to the App, use them to create and edit documents in the App, i.e. to operate the App services and provide you with the App functionality.

  You can manage, change access permissions to your Camera, Photos, Files and Folders at any time via the Settings app on your device.

  To learn more details on how you can manage the relevant app permissions, review the following Apple and Google support articles:

  - Control access to information in apps on iPhone;

  - Change app permissions on your Android phone;

  - Control access to your photos on Mac;

  - Control access to files and folders on Mac.

• Authorization data related to registration in the App. Your email address is recorded if you already have an account or if you choose to create a new account within the App (Sign Up for a new account). Having an account within the App (“Forma account”) allows you to be registered within the App to use the full scope of its functions, inter alia, to use the cloud storage functionality, to store and manage documents associated with your Forma account, sync and access them anytime from any device or platform (iOS, macOS, Android, Web).

  You can create a Forma account by providing your email address (“Enter email” option on the Sign Up screen), setting and confirming the password and going through a verification process. You may also choose to sign in to the App with your Apple, Google or Facebook account using the “Continue with Apple”, “Continue with Google” or “Continue with Facebook” button on the Sign Up screen. In this case you may use the information related to your Apple ID/Google account credentials/Facebook account credentials to create or sign in to your Forma account. When you create or log in to your Forma account through a third-party service (Apple, Google, Facebook), you voluntarily direct this service to provide us with access to some of your basic profile information in accordance with the authorization procedures determined by such service. Among all potentially available basic profile information from a third-party service you use for authorization we access and record only your email address, which is stored and processed for the purpose of your Forma account creation and maintenance.

  Inter alia, if you register in the App (Sign Up for a new Forma account) or Sign in to your existing Forma account using the “Continue with Google” option, Google will provide you with system notifications and require your authorization to give our App some access to your Google account data. If you decide to share such access, you will need to sign in to your Google account. In this case the App requests some access to your Google account data solely to enable you to create a new Forma account and/or perform authorization to your existing Forma account. When you use the “Continue with Google” option in the App, Google will give you a notification that you authorize us to access your basic Google profile information: name, email address, and profile picture. However, among all this basic profile information that you provide access to only your email address is collected and recorded by us for the purposes of your Forma account creation and maintenance. To learn more details about Sign in with Google option, please review this Google Account help article. You can review and manage the connection between the App and your Google account at any time via your Google account’s third-party connections page. Visit Manage connections between your Google Account and third-parties article for further information.

  Note that you are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password used for logging in to your Forma account. You are also responsible for all activities that occur under your Forma account. You acknowledge and agree that we are not liable for any damages and/or losses that may occur as a result of someone else using your credentials to access your Forma account (and/or data, files associated with your Forma account) without your knowledge and express consent. You agree to notify us immediately if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your Forma account credentials, any other breach of security relating to your Forma account or if you suspect any unauthorized access and/or breach of security.

• Files associated with your Forma account. If you are signed in to your active Forma account and use cloud storage functionality, you’ll be able to store, manage and synchronize on any device or platform (iOS, macOS, Android, Web) images, files and documents you choose to upload, import, create using the App (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Files associated with your Forma account”). All Files associated with your Forma account are stored using AWS storage services of Amazon Web Services, Inc. (a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc.). Files associated with your Forma account will be synchronized on any device or platform (iOS, macOS, Android, Web) you might use for accessing such Forma account. If you choose the option “Delete Account” in the setting of any App, or on the App’s Website, all Files associated with your Forma account stored in the cloud will be deleted and you’ll no longer have an opportunity to restore them. After deletion of your Forma account you will only have access to files kept locally on your device (i.e. to files not associated with your deleted Forma account).

  Note that we do not access the contents of the Files associated with your Forma account, you are the only person who can exercise control over such files. In some exceptional cases we may carry out a check of your files metadata upon your request (without access to the contents of files), if it is necessary for legitimate aims, such as identifying errors, bug investigation, providing you with the technical support for the App services.

  Please also bear in mind that if you don’t have an active Forma account, are not signed in to your active Forma account and, accordingly, don’t use the App’s cloud storage functionality, all files that you upload, edit and save in the App are stored locally on your device and inaccessible for us. This means that such files will not be stored in the cloud and/or on any of our cloud service provider servers, will not be synchronized on any device or platform as they are not associated with your Forma account.

• Other Forma account Details. In addition to email address the following data related to your Forma account may be processed: your current cloud storage capacity, the amount of cloud storage space actually used, date of Forma account registration, subscription ID. All this information is kept in the App’s administration panel and processed for the purposes of maintenance of your Forma account and subscription (if applicable), providing you with high-quality technical support, dispute settlement.

• Information about the files that the user stores in Google Drive service (processing is relevant and applicable only if the App supports the “Import files from Google Drive” function). If the corresponding functionality is available, you may choose to import your files from Google Drive directly to the App. To use this function, you’ll be required to activate connection of the App with Google Drive service. When you try to enable this connection within the App, you’ll be prompted to enter your Google account sign-in credentials and be asked for permission to see and download your Google Drive files. Once you grant this permission, the App will have access to the up-to-date list of files that you store in Google Drive service. The App access and processing of information about the list of files you store in Google Drive service is necessary solely for the purpose of providing you with the “Import files from Google Drive” function, i.e. in order to enable you to select and import your files from Google Drive service directly to the App. Bear in mind that the above-described App access to the up-to-date list of files that you store in Google Drive service does not include human access to the content of such files, which means that you are the only person who can manage and exercise full control over them. You may enable or disable the connection of the App with Google Drive service at any time via the App. If you disconnect Google Drive in the App, you won’t be able to import files from your Google Drive directly to the App. Additionally, you can always review and manage connection of the App with Google Drive service via your Google Account’s third-party connections page. See Manage connections between your Google Account and third-parties article for more details.

• User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature , which is defined in subsection “USER CONTENT”, Section VI of our Terms of Use. If you use the AI Chatbot feature available within the App, the session history of your interaction with the AI Chatbot (all Inputs and Outputs) will be saved and stored locally on your device unless you choose to clear your whole session history or specific AI Chatbot session(s). The session history of your interaction with the AI Chatbot is not synchronized with your Forma account, it will not be stored in the cloud and/or on any of our servers. However, your User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature is shared with OpenAI, L.L.C. (our AI service provider), its affiliates for the purposes of providing you with and maintenance of the AI Chatbot feature available within the App. In this regard note that our AI service provider OpenAI, L.L.C. and/or its affiliates do not use your User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature for training, improvement or development of OpenAI models. As a general rule OpenAI as our AI service provider may retain your User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature for up to 30 days for the purposes of providing the services and identifying abuse. After 30 days, your User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature is removed from OpenAI’s systems, unless OpenAI is legally required to retain it.

  Note that it is strictly prohibited to enter, provide, generate via the App, use, distribute or otherwise exploit any portion of User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature in a way that compromises or violates the privacy of others. You are solely responsible for non-infringement of third party rights when you use the App or User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature. Please review Sections VI, VII of our Terms of Use carefully for more details regarding rules, regulations and restrictions applicable to your User Content related to the AI Chatbot feature.

• Contact Information (name, e-mail address, as well as any other content included in the email) which you may fill in by yourself when you contact us via email, support forms. We collect, store and process it by our cloud storage provider (Amazon Web Services, Inc.). We use such information to respond effectively to your inquiry, fulfill your requests, send you communications that you request and perform the requested services.

Information That Is Processed Automatically

If you use Forma App designed for iOS devices, at the first launch of such App you’ll be asked for permission to access your Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) for tracking purposes via special App Tracking Transparency (ATT) alert demonstrated to you. Then you’ll have an opportunity to turn off or turn on permission to track your activity across other companies’ apps and websites at any time via the Privacy & Security settings on your device (check Section VIII of this Privacy policy for more details).

Additionally, when you use any of our Apps, some information about your device and your user behavior may be processed automatically on the grounds of our legitimate interests in improving our App and giving our users the best experience. All this information is generally non-personal, i.e. it does not, on its own, permit direct association with any specific individual, and we may access it only in aggregated form. We use third-party automatic data processing technologies (advertising and/or analytics tools) to analyze all this information sent by your device via the App. Some integrated advertising and/or analytics tools (check Section IV to see the list of them) launch automated processing of your personal data, including profiling, which means any form of automated processing of personal data used to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to you, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning your personal preferences, interests, behavior, location or movements.

The following list describes the categories of data that may be processed automatically and shared with third-party advertising and/or analytics tools as described above:

• Device Details. When you use a device to access our App, some details about your device are reported, including “device identifiers”. Device identifiers are small data files or similar data structures stored on or associated with your device, which uniquely identify your device (but not your personality). Device identifier enables generalized reporting or personalized content and ads by the third parties.

  What data can be processed:

  • · Information about the device itself: type of your device, type of operating system and its version, model and manufacturer, screen size, screen density, orientation, audio volume and battery, device memory usage.
  • · Information about the internet connection: mobile carrier, network provider, network type, IP address, timestamp and duration of sessions, speed, browser.
  • · Location-related information: IP address, the country code/ region/ state/ city associated with your SIM card or your device, language setting, time zone, neighboring commercial points of interest (eg. “coffee shop”).
  • · Device Advertising Identifiers: Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) for iOS devices (access to and processing of IDFA for iOS devices is possible only if the user grants the relevant permission via App Tracking Transparency (ATT) alert or via device settings) / Advertising ID for Android devices (may be deleted or reset by the user in device settings).
  • · Other device identifiers: e.g. user identifiers (if they are set up by the App’s developer).

• Information about the applications. Name, API key (identifier for application), version, properties of our App can be reported for automated processing and analysis. Some services also record the list of applications and/or processes which are installed or run on your device.
• Cookies and similar technologies. When you use the App, cookies and similar technologies may be used (pixels, web beacons, scripts). A cookie is a text file containing small amounts of information which is downloaded to your device when you access the App. The text file is then sent back to the server each time you use the App. This enables us to operate the App more effectively. For example, we will know how many users access specific areas or features within our App and which links or ads they clicked on. We use this aggregated information to understand and optimize how our App is used, improve our marketing efforts, and provide content and features that are of interest to you. We may ask advertisers or other partners to serve ads or services to the App, which may use cookies or similar technologies.
• Log file information. Log file information is automatically reported each time you make a request to access the App. It can also be provided when the App is installed on your device. When you use our App, analytics tools automatically record certain log file information, including time and date when you start and stop using the App, and how you interact with the App.
• Ad-related information. The following data might be reported about the ads you can view: the date and time a particular ad is served; a record if that ad was “clicked” or if it was shown as a “conversion” event; what the ad offer is about; what type of ad it is (e.g., text, image, or video); which ad placement is involved (where the ad offer is displayed within the App); whether you respond to the ad.
• In-app events. When you use our App, analytics tools automatically record your activity information (taps, scrolls, screens you visited in the App, tutorial steps, leveling up, payments, in-app purchases, custom events, progression events, method of limiting the processing of user data).
• Subscription details: information about all your subscriptions in the App (subscription start date, its duration, payment receipts); information about the Forma accounts that you create when you get registered (email, date of registration, etc.); login history (sorted by dates and devices) and the number of currently connected devices.

Information provided automatically to advertising or analytics tools does not generally come to our control, therefore we cannot be responsible for processing such information. Please mind that some services are engaged in personal data profiling and may obtain information related to your personality and/or your device by using technologies that do not belong to our scope of responsibility. In case when your user ID is linked to your Facebook / Google / Apple account, Facebook / Google / Apple may use your device information in association with categorized data that were already recorded in its databases (eg. your age, gender or other demographic indication). We do not control, supervise or stand surety for how the third parties process your personal data, that might be collected by their own means (not through our App). Any information request regarding the disclosure of your personal information should be directed to such third parties (see Section IV).

Payment Information

When you make a purchase related to one of the Apps (for iOS, macOS or Android devices), the respective App Store (Apple App Store or Google Play Store correspondingly) is responsible for billing, processing and charging for in-app purchases, handles your personal information and keeps it absolutely safe and secure. This information is processed as part of the performance of the contract between you and us. We cannot access or use your credit or debit card information. You may access the applicable “in-app” purchase rules and policies directly from the app stores.

Email communications

If you already have an active Forma accounts or if you choose to create a new Forma accounts in any App or on the App’s Website, we may use the email address associated with your Forma accounts to send you operational/transactional messages. In the context of the present Privacy policy operational/transactional messages are defined as email communications that are necessary and crucial for the following purposes: (a) the proper functioning of Forma Apps, the App’s Website; (b) the performance of our contractual and/or legal obligations to users; (c) the completion of a transaction (if applicable). Examples of operational/transactional messages that you may receive are the following: Forma accounts setup notification; code confirmations for Forma accounts setup and password reset; security alerts; purchase confirmations, receipts, invoices (if applicable); legal and compliance notifications. We rely on the following legal grounds for processing of your email address and other related data for the purpose of sending you operational/transactional messages: (a) contractual necessity; (b) our legitimate interests; (c) compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject. To automate the operational/transactional messages sending process, we use AWS services of Amazon Web Services, Inc. (Amazon Simple Email). Note that transactional/operational messages are non-marketing in nature and are sent to you in order to provide essential information, confirmations, notifications or alerts related to your Forma accounts, transactions, or your interaction with Forma Apps or the App’s Website. For this very reason operational/transactional messages that you may receive do not contain an unsubscribe link.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding legal grounds for sending operational/transactional messages or our email practices, please contact us using the contact form available in each App.

VI. HOW LONG WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We generally retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for performing the functional service of the App and to comply with our legal obligations. If you no longer want us to use your information that we physically access and store, you can request that we erase your personal information and close your Forma account.

However, some data may still be stored for a certain time period (but no longer than the storage purpose requires) if information is necessary to comply with legal obligation (taxation, accounting, audit) or in order to maintain safety and data backup settings, prevent fraud or other malicious acts.

IX. SECURITY

The security of your personal information is highly important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.

We take reasonable and appropriate measures to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the personal information.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures, which are designed to implement data-protection principles, such as data minimization, in an effective manner and to integrate the necessary safeguards into the processing. We seek your personal data to be encrypted with proper and strong encryption algorithms, including hashing where possible.

Unfortunately, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We do our best to protect your personal data, nevertheless, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. In the event that your personal information is compromised as a breach of security, we will promptly notify you in compliance with applicable law.

If you have any questions about the security of our App, you can contact us through the email or contact form displayed below.

X. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

Our Apps are not intended for children. Therefore, we do not knowingly or intentionally collect or solicit any personal information from children. For the purposes of this Section X the terms “child” and/or “children” in the context of data processing activities may be interpreted on a case-by-case basis as prescribed by applicable data protection laws. No one who is considered a “child” under applicable data protection laws is allowed to directly provide any personal information to the App.

As a general rule we consider a person under the age of 16 to be regarded as “a child” until we have legal grounds to conclude that a person under 16 should be treated as an adult as per provisions of local data protection rules or based on the parent authorization provided to us directly.

Solely the holders of parental responsibility are liable for preventing their children from providing personal information via the App without relevant verifiable parental consent. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child without verification of parental consent, we will erase that information as quickly as possible. If you reasonably believe that we might have any information from or about a child, or a child has directly provided us with personal information via the App without verifiable parental consent, please contact us.

XI. CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY POLICY
