SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We do not share your personal information with third parties without your consent, except in the following circumstances or as described in this Policy:
- Service Providers: We may share your personal information with third parties for the purpose of providing services to us. These third parties are authorized to use your personal information only as necessary to provide these services to us. For livestreaming, this may include third-party platforms (e.g., YouTube, Twitch) that host or distribute your streams when you choose to share them
- Livestreaming Sharing:If you use the livestreaming feature, your streams (including audio, video, and any associated metadata) may be recorded and shared with third-party platforms such as YouTube and Twitch, based on your preferences. Streams may also be made available on the Earnscape website for viewing by other users or the public, depending on your settings. By using this feature, you consent to such sharing as configured by you. Earnscape retains recorded streams only as long as necessary to upload them to a third-party platform after the streaming session ends, after which we delete them from our servers.
- Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement Requests; Protection of Our Rights: We may disclose your personal information as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process. We may also disclose your personal information when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request. This includes audio, video, or metadata from livestreams if legally required.
INFORMATION CHOICES AND CHANGES
Our marketing emails tell you how to “opt-out.” If you opt out, we may still send you non-marketing emails. Non-marketing emails include emails about your accounts and our business dealings with you.
For livestreaming, you can control your microphone and camera access through your device settings and the App’s permissions. You may also adjust your stream settings to:
- Limit chat participation to subscribers only.
- Mute, kick, or ban individuals from your current stream or all future streams.
- Determine whether your streams are recorded, shared with third-party platforms (e.g., YouTube, Twitch), or made available on the Earnscape website.
Please note that once a stream is shared with a third-party platform, it will be subject to that platform’s privacy policy and terms of service. Earnscape deletes recorded streams from our servers after they are uploaded to a third-party platform, typically shortly after the streaming session concludes.
