4. Photo Library & Media Access

When you use the creator upload feature on our platform, we request access to your device's file system to allow you to select video and image files for upload. We only access files you explicitly select. We do not browse, index, or store any other files from your device.

Uploaded videos are stored on our secure servers (AWS S3) and processed for streaming delivery.

5. Sharing Your Information

We share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• Service Providers: AWS (hosting & video storage), Stripe (payments), RevenueCat (subscriptions), and similar vendors who help us operate the Platform. These providers are contractually required to protect your data.
• Creator Profiles: Your public username and creator content are visible to other users of the Platform.
• Legal Compliance: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or to protect the safety and rights of our users.
• Business Transfers: In the event of a merger or acquisition, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Platform. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or financial compliance purposes.

Creator content may remain on the Platform after account deletion unless you explicitly request its removal prior to deleting your account.

7. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including HTTPS encryption, JWT-based authentication, and secure cloud storage to protect your personal data. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

IgniteDrama is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with their information, contact us at support@ignitedrama.com.
