How 10XF Stories handles personal information, in plain English.
Last updated: September 2026. Privacy questions: privacy@10xfstories.co.uk.
Who is responsible
10XF Stories is an independent interview and editorial project run by Armen Barsoumian (Armen B.).
What we collect
If you apply to be a guest or take part in an interview, we may collect:
- your name and email;
- company or project and website details;
- links and answers you send through the guest form;
- messages and booking details;
- your interview recording, including your voice and image;
- material you choose to send for the episode;
- basic server and security information needed to run the website.
Why we use it
We use this information to:
- review and reply to guest applications;
- arrange and record interviews;
- edit, publish and promote episodes;
- run and protect the website;
- deal with privacy, legal or correction requests.
We normally rely on our legitimate interests in running the project and, once you agree to take part, on the Guest Release you accept for recording and publishing the interview.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your information.
We only use services reasonably needed to run the project, such as hosting, email, recording and storage, and publishing platforms.
Some of those services may process information outside the UK, using lawful transfer safeguards where required.
How long we keep it
Guest applications that do not lead to an interview are normally kept for up to 12 months after the last contact.
Interview recordings and published material may be kept as part of the 10XF Stories editorial archive.
YouTube
We do not use analytics or advertising trackers.
Episode pages show the video's own still image, which is loaded from YouTube when the page opens, so Google receives the technical information any image request carries, such as your device and connection details. The player itself loads only after you press Play. At that point Google and YouTube may receive further technical information and may use their own cookies or similar technologies.
Your rights
You may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to our use of your personal information. Contact privacy@10xfstories.co.uk and we will respond.
You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) in the UK.
