Hi apo,
We=E2=80=99re constantly looking for ways to improve the Dropbox experience=
. This year we=E2=80=99ve announced new features[1] , partnerships[2] , and=
the acquisition of HelloSign[3] . To support these improvements, we=E2=80=
=99ve made a few updates to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Here=
=E2=80=99s 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, retriev=
e, 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 =E2=
=80=9Cfeatures like commenting, sharing, searching, image thumbnails, docum=
ent previews, optical character recognition (OCR), easy sorting and organiz=
ation, and personalization to help reduce busywork.=E2=80=9D We=E2=80=99ve =
also revised our beta terms to include a confidentiality provision and to a=
llow Dropbox to solicit feedback from beta participants.
- Privacy Policy . We=E2=80=99ve updated our Privacy Policy to include mor=
e 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 tha=
t it acquires (like HelloSign) and other ecosystem partners[4] that offer i=
ntegrations for Dropbox users. We=E2=80=99ve also revised our Privacy Shiel=
d 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 Europe=
an Union.

ll go into effect on September 24th, 2019. You can also find our previous T=
erms here[7] . For more details, visit our Help Center[8] .
