​

ULUSTORY offers a unique platform where individual users (“Users”), companies (“Clients”), their assigned managers (“Managers”) and their employees (“Storytellers”) can access a personalized, confidential storytelling skill-building process through a large set of tools which promote business growth hand-in-hand with personal growth. (Note: Users and Storytellers are collectively referred to as Users.)

​

APPLICATION 

This Privacy Policy applies to any and all Clients, Managers and Users of the website https://www.ulustory.com, its subdomains, whether registered or not, as well as all Clients, Managers and Users of the web-based application found at ulustory.app, beginning with the moment they sign-in with their assigned username. 

​

This Privacy Policy is territorially agnostic, meaning that it applies to all users from the moment they enter our website or application, regardless of where they are.

​

​DATA COLLECTED

The collection and processing of data is fundamental to the operation of ULUSTORY. It is based on these data that our project is built and it is these data that allow us to provide a reference service in the area of storytelling, skill-building and employee engagement. We limit and review the data, and the retention period is 10 years.

​

There are several groups of information and data that we collect and process. For simplicity, we will divide the different types of information into Clients, Managers and Users (for purposes of this Policy, “Users” includes “Storytellers”).

​

Data required from the CLIENTS

Data required from the Client at registration/subscription: all the data entered by the Client when registering on or subscribing to the platform are stored and processed. It is this registration that allows us to identify the Client and their identified key Manager, and give that Manager access to the reserved area for uploading names and email addresses of Users for managing access to the web application at ULUstory.app, associated materials, sessions, coaching and correctly associate the Client and key Manager with the users designated by them to use ULUSTORY. Furthermore, these are the data that we consider essential, along with the invoicing data, for the proper establishment of the contractual connection between ULUSTORY and the CLIENT. The following information is required during registration: complete name of Client, full name and contact information for billing employee/vendor, billing address, full name and contact information including email address of key Manager/s. 

​

Data collected automatically: in addition to the aforementioned data, we automatically collect, through cookies and other methods and services, a set of data that allow us to know precisely how Clients, Managers and Users use the platform, the country, date and times the Managers and Users log on to the platform, among other information. Data such as the IP address, the browser in which they access and their version, language, operating system, among others, are collected. We would like to emphasize that this type of data collection is intended, above all, to facilitate the work of our team whenever you need our support and assistance.

This information includes complete names of Managers, their email addresses, and their positions and/or titles. 

​

Furthermore, these are the data that we consider essential, along with the invoicing data, for the proper establishment of the contractual connection between ULUSTORY and the Client.

​

Data required from the USERS

ULUSTORY may ask the Users for various personal data that may range from "simple" personal data categories (for example: username email, among many others) to data considered as "special" (examples of this type of data are Users’ draft and final U-stories, membership in “protected” legal categories such as race, gender, and age, personal and social history, place of work, and position held, among others).

​

ULUSTORY only processes the data of its users to the extent that they are inserted by the Users or Managers directly, through the web and/or mobile application. The use of the web application is intended for the use of the Managers and Users, in their employment context, and this usage is, obviously, optional and, in the cases in which it is used, we collect the following data:

​

Data entered by the Users: all data entered, either when logging into the web application or subsequently, are stored and processed. It is this set of data that allows us to identify Users, give them access to their reserved areas, correctly associate them with the Manager/s and/or ULUSTORY COACH, and give Users access to their sessions. Examples of this data are your login credentials.

​

Data collected from Managers and Users

Location data: with the use of the web application we can proceed to the registration of information from the GPS of the mobile device. However, this operation is optional, being always consented by the user, previously, at the moment of entering the reserved area.

Local files, notifications, and other data: the web application may access local files or information stored in other programs on rare occasions, always with your explicit authorization. All of these operations are optional, and they just serve to supplement and highlight the utility of the service we give.
