Data Ownership and Content Sharing
You retain all rights, title, and interest in and to the content you create and submit within The Juniper Journal, including project data, journal entries, sustainability metrics, and any associated materials (“User Content”).
​
By submitting User Content, you grant The Juniper Journal a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, modify, display, publish, distribute, and otherwise use such User Content solely for the purposes of operating, improving, and promoting the platform and its services.
​
You may control the visibility of your User Content through available privacy and sharing settings within the app. Content designated as “private” will only be accessible to you and any users you explicitly authorize. Content designated as “public” may be visible to other users and may be shared within the platform to support collaboration, learning, and community engagement.
​
Where you elect to make User Content publicly available, you may be given the option to license such content under a Creative Commons license. Creative Commons licenses are standardized public copyright licenses that allow others to use, share, and, where applicable, adapt your content under specific conditions. These conditions may include, but are not limited to, attribution requirements, non-commercial use restrictions, and share-alike provisions, depending on the specific license selected (e.g., Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY), Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial (CC BY-NC), or similar).
​
By applying a Creative Commons license to your User Content, you grant the public permission to use your content in accordance with the terms of that license. Such licenses are irrevocable once granted, except as otherwise permitted under applicable law. You acknowledge that The Juniper Journal is not responsible for how third parties use content made available under a Creative Commons license.
​
You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to submit User Content and to grant the rights described in this section. You agree not to upload or share content that infringes or violates the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of any third party.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data.
​
We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
  • With trusted third-party service providers (such as backend infrastructure providers like Supabase) to operate and maintain the platform
  • When required to comply with applicable law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request
  • To protect the rights, safety, integrity, or security of The Juniper Journal, its users, or the public
Content that you choose to make public may be accessible to other users and, depending on platform functionality, may be further shared or accessed beyond your immediate network.
Data Storage and Security

We use secure infrastructure and industry-standard practices to protect your information.

 

However, information that is made publicly available may be accessed, copied, or redistributed by others, and we cannot guarantee control over such actions once content leaves the platform or is accessed by third parties.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as necessary to provide the service.​

 

We may retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate purposes such as security, fraud prevention, and system reliability.​

​

Please note that content you have made publicly available may persist outside of the platform, even after it is removed or your account is deleted.

Data Storage and Security

You may:

  • Request access to your personal data

  • Request deletion of your account and associated personal data

  • Adjust your privacy and visibility settings within the app at any time

We will take reasonable steps to fulfill valid requests, subject to legal and operational requirements.

Third-Party Links and Services

The app may contain links to third-party content or services. We are not responsible for their privacy practices.

 

Content that is publicly accessible may also be viewed, shared, or embedded by third parties outside of The Juniper Journal, and such use is not controlled by us.
