• User Content Information: You can use the RecordCast service in accordance with our Terms of Use. All content that you create within RecordCast including all the assets that you upload remain private to your account unless you choose to share it publicly or to specific team members. We access your content only when you give us explicit permission in order to resolve any issues you have within the application. Ultimately, you alone get to choose who will see your videos and uploaded content. If your content is made public, anyone (including us) may view its contents and potentially make other uses of it. If you have included private or sensitive information in your public designs, such as email addresses, that information may be indexed by search engines or used by third parties. If your user content is shared privately, those you have shared it with may use it in a manner inconsistent with our Terms of Use, and/or inconsistent with your wishes, including disclosing it publicly.

Sharing of Public Content

Within our Services you can create content, which may contain account and contact information, and grant permission to others to see, share, edit, copy and download that content based on settings you or your administrator (if applicable) select. Some of the collaboration features of the Services display some or all of your profile information to other Service users when you share or interact with specific content. You can confirm whether certain Service properties are publicly visible from within the Services or by contacting the relevant administrator.

We enable the sharing of user content on our Services. If your content is public-facing, third parties may access and use it. We do not sell that content; it is yours. However, we do allow third parties, such as search engines (e.g., Google), archives, and other members of the public to access and compile public-facing information.

Below is the information that is shared about your uploaded & created content:

• The videos that you create are by default private and accessible only by you. However, when you share your video in password protected or public mode, they will be accessible by others. A video that is shared in public mode will be searchable and indexable by search engines as well.
• The files that you upload into RecordCast are private and are accessible only from within the video in which they are used provided the video itself has been shared by you.
• RecordCast has a public showcase where we display some of our users’ created videos as an inspiration for others. Only publicly shared videos that meet our design standards are showcased. We display your publicly shared video only with your consent in our showcase section and can also remove any of the videos from our showcase without notifying you. If you make your showcased video private, password protected or delete it, it will be also be removed from our showcase.
• If you belong to a team account, then your videos may be accessible by others in your team based on their roles and the permissions set for the video.

You can access, edit, change sharing options, and delete your videos from the dashboard in RecordCast.
