Updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

Hi suryo,
We're constantly looking for ways to improve the Dropbox experience and expand our feature offerings. In the past few years, we welcomed HelloSign—now Dropbox Sign—and DocSend to the Dropbox family, and now we'll be offering these services as an integrated part of Dropbox. If you haven't used these services before, you'll now be able to access them from your Dropbox account. We're making a few updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy to reflect these and some other changes:
Terms of Service
We added language to cover use of the Dropbox Sign and DocSend services.
We added language clarifying your responsibilities should you choose to enable third- party integrations with Dropbox.
We now refer to Dropbox Business teams as Dropbox Teams and have updated the Terms of Service accordingly.
Privacy Policy
We added information to explain how data collection works if you use DocSend, viewer insights on content viewed in Dropbox, or our eSignature services.
We've added information to clarify how we use your data when you interact with Dropbox representatives in certain marketing contexts.
We now refer to Dropbox Business teams as Dropbox Teams and have updated the Privacy Policy accordingly.
Please look at the full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. These will go into effect on April 3, 2023. By continuing to use Dropbox after this date, you are agreeing to the new terms. You can also find our previous Terms here. For more details, visit our Help Center.
Thanks!

Hi suryo,
We're constantly looking for ways to improve the Dropbox experience and to ensure that our policies explain how our services work. So we're letting you know about a few updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Here's a summary of the key changes:
Terms of Service. We've clarified that Dropbox may only be used by those over 13 in the United States, and 16 outside of the United States. We've also made updates to our dispute resolution terms.
Privacy Policy. Our goal is to make Dropbox a great place for collaboration with the people you work with. To support this, we've explained when collaborators and potential collaborators might see some of your basic information. We've also added details on our data transfer mechanisms and our updated process for data deletion requests.
Please take a look at the full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which will go into effect on January 12, 2022. You can also find our previous terms here. For more details, visit our Help Center.

Updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

Hi suryo,

We're constantly looking for ways to improve the Dropbox experience. This year we've announced new features, partnerships, and the acquisition of HelloSign. To support these improvements, we've made a few updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Here's a summary of the key additions:
  • Terms of Service. On June 11, we unveiled the new Dropbox. Our mission is to offer a robust collaboration workspace that helps users find, retrieve, organize, and prioritize their files, collaborate with others, and stay focused on their most important work. To better align with that mission and the new Dropbox, our revised Terms outline that our Services provide "features like commenting, sharing, searching, image thumbnails, document previews, optical character recognition (OCR), easy sorting and organization, and personalization to help reduce busywork." We've also revised our beta terms to include a confidentiality provision and to allow Dropbox to solicit feedback from beta participants.
  • Privacy Policy. We've updated our Privacy Policy to include more details on what personal data we collect and how we use it. For instance, our Privacy Policy now explains how Dropbox shares data with companies that it acquires (like HelloSign) and other ecosystem partners that offer integrations for Dropbox users. We've also revised our Privacy Shield attestation so that data transfers from the UK to the US will continue to be covered by our Privacy Shield certification if the UK leaves the European Union.
You can read the full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which will go into effect on September 24th, 2019. You can also find our previous Terms here. For more details, visit our Help Center.

Thanks!

Updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

Hi suryo,

We're always looking for new ways to improve how you create and work together using Dropbox. That's why we recently launched several new productivity tools and sharing features. And there's more to come. To support these changes, we've made a few updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

Here's a quick summary.

  • Privacy Shield. We're excited to be certified under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework, and have updated our Privacy Policy to reflect this update.
  • Profile visibility. Dropbox may display some of your basic profile information (like your name and profile picture) when you're collaborating with others.
  • Teammate and team discovery. Dropbox and Dropbox Business team names may be visible to users on the same company or organization domain. Team admins can disable this function. And in the future, this may allow us to help you find others on the same domain.
  • User terms. We've clarified terms like how you can cancel your account, and when you qualify for a refund. For users outside the U.S., we've also added information about how your country's laws govern your Dropbox agreement.

You can read the full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which will go into effect on February 10, 2017. For more details, visit our Help Center or send a message to tos-questions@dropbox.com.
