Public information on DeepLobe
Many of DeepLobe’s platform and features can be public-facing. If you post any content publicly, including user-generated content (as defined in the DeepLobe Terms & Conditions), issues, comments, or contributions to other users’ workspaces, third parties may access and use in compliance with the DeepLobe Terms & Conditions, including by viewing your profile or workspaces or “forking” your APIs, collections, environments, mocks, monitors, and other linked entities. We do not sell that content; it is yours. However, any content made public will be publicly accessible through the internet and may be crawled and indexed by search engines. Your personal information associated with content you make publicly-available could be accessed by third parties. If you do not want your personal information to be accessed by third parties’, please do not make your personal information publicly available and be sure to configure your email address to be private in your user profile and in your settings.

For example, where a DeepLobe user has made an email address public-facing for the purpose of identification and attribution, do not use that email address for the purposes of sending unsolicited emails to users or selling user personal information, such as to recruiters, headhunters, and job boards, or for commercial advertising. We expect you to reasonably secure any user personal information you have access to via public workspaces on DeepLobe, and to respond promptly to complaints, removal requests, and “do not contact” requests from DeepLobe and from DeepLobe users. Similarly, APIs, collections, environments, mocks, monitors, and other linked entities in public workspaces on DeepLobe may include publicly- available user personal information collected as part of the collaborative process. If you have a complaint about any user personal information on DeepLobe, please contact us at [email protected].Teams

Information storage and security
We use industry standard technical and organizational measures to secure the information we store.

How long we keep information we collect about you depends on the type of information, as described in further detail below.

Your request and choices may be limited in certain cases: for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal information about another person, or if you ask to delete information which we or your administrator are permitted by law or have compelling legitimate interests to keep.

When you make such requests, we may need time to investigate and facilitate your request. If there is delay or dispute as to whether we have the right to continue using your information, we will restrict any further use of your information until the request is honored or the dispute is resolved, provided your administrator does not object (where applicable). If you object to information about you being shared with a third-party integration, please disable the integration or contact your administrator to do so. Data portability: Data portability is the ability to obtain some of your information in a format you can move from one service provider to another (for instance, when you transfer your mobile phone number to another carrier).
