The content of the files and live streams we receive may contain personal data which we need to process in order to perform the contract we have with our clients.
In the case of a live broadcast, the live stream is sent to captioners who then convert the audio to text in real-time and deliver these words to a target destination. We store the text in our database to facilitate customer access to transcripts, and for quality and training purposes (including machine learning). Depending on the live service we are delivering, we may store a recording of your live stream. You should let us know if you wish to have these deleted via email info@ai-media.tv.
The same principles apply for recorded content you provide for captioning or transcription services. We provide access to that media file to captioners who convert the audio into written form.
