This is StorState Online Backup & Recovery’s (“StorState”) policy regarding the collection and protection of Personal Information supplied by users or collected by us from users of the StorState Online Backup & Recovery website, and the StorState Data Vaulting System backup service (the "Service"). StorState defines "Personal Information" as any data from which it is practical to directly determine the identity of an individual. This Privacy Policy may be updated by StorState from time to time.

By signing up to use the StorState Service, you agree (1) to comply with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy and (2) that StorState may collect and use your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Use.

You acknowledge and agree that StorState may occasionally send you administrative communications regarding your account or the Service via email.

Passive Data Collection and Cookies
StorState may use cookie, IP address, and URL information to improve and further develop the Service, and to provide enhanced features to Users, where available. StorState may use cookies to save User login names, session validators, and on Users' browsers and hard drives, and may use them to provide tailored products and services to those Users, as they become available.

INFORMATION STORSTATE COLLECTS

Personal Information
When registering with StorState, you provide Personal Information, which may include company name, industry, number of employees, phone number, your title, city, state, country, zip code, a user name, confirmed email address, and a password.
