If you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.

Can you use PomoNow for sensitive or private files?

We treat your Content with big respect. We don't provide any public search function, catalogue or listing to find Content. We trust you understand that in order to fulfill our moral responsibility to reduce the spread of Child Sexual Abuse Imagery (CSAI), we do our best in order to detect such Content by using automated systems. Finally, we're obliged to delete your Content when we receive a DMCA-request or when we receive a legal request.

Please be mindful when distributing download/access links - whoever it is passed on to or has access to a download/access link can access or download the Content. For extra security and confidentiality you might want to use our feature to protect your files with a password (if available).

What retention procedures are in place?

The retention period for your personal information depends on which Service you use and it depends on which category of personal information we're talking about. Always check out the website(s) or app(s) of the Service(s) for the specific information on retention periods.

Personal information

PomoNow retains your personal information as long as its necessary to provide our Services to you (e.g. upholding your user account), to conduct our business activities and fulfill our legitimate interests, such as providing safe and secure services, to fix bugs and to reach out to you, to comply with applicable laws (e.g. retaining financial information for 7 years for tax purposes) and legal requests and to resolve (legal) disputes.

Files you transfer

When using WeTransfer File Sharing your Content will be deleted after 7 days, unless you have a Pro account in which case your transfer data is stored by default for 28 days or until the expiry date you set manually. After this period, a file is automatically deleted from our servers. The personal information that accompanies your transfer is kept for a maximum of 12 months. Such personal information is only accessible to very few people within PomoNow, those that need it to perform their job, for example to provide you with support. When data is older than 12 months, we scrub it from the database, pseudonymise or anonymise it for analysis. Pseudonomising your personal information means that we do not use your email address or IP address for analytical purposes, but create a random pseudonym for both and use that pseudonym instead. That way we don't have to handle directly identifiable personal information, which is privacy-friendly.

Content you create, use, store or share through the Services other than file sharing

The Content you create, use, store or share on our Services, other than our File Sharing Service, is, in principle, retained until you stop interacting with our Service(s), when you delete your Content from the Service(s), when you delete the Service(s) from your device(s) or when you delete your account. Always check out the website(s) or app(s) of the Service(s) you use for specific information.

How safe is it to use our services?

PomoNow takes technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against loss or other forms of unlawful processing.

We make sure that personal information is only accessible by those who need access to do their job and that they are properly authorised. That means we keep logs of who has access to personal information, we limit the amount of people that have access and we make sure that personal information can only be read, copied, modified or removed by properly authorised staff. We monitor internal activity to ensure the safety and accuracy of personal information.

PomoNow staff is required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the company's guidelines regarding confidentiality, ethics, and appropriate usage of personal information. Staff is required to sign a confidentiality agreement.

During an upload, while it's stored on our servers and during a download, Content is encrypted and only sent over a secure connection (https). The servers we use to store your Content for you are GDPR compliant and secure.
