The policy defines user content as prompts, images, video and audio uploaded to the service but does not state whether that content is used to train Runway's generative models.
“We and our analytics partners may use information about you to analyze your usage of the Service, improve the Service, conduct research, improve the rest of our business, help us understand user activity on the Service, including which pages are most and least visited and how visitors move around the Service, as well as user interactions with our emails, and to develop new products and services. / As part of our efforts to improve the Service, we may create aggregated, de-identified and/or anonymized data from personal data we collect.”
“We will retain your information for only as long as necessary to provide the Service and for the other legitimate business purposes set out in this Policy such as safety, security, compliance, and dispute resolution. / For example, we will retain face scans and voiceprints for no longer than the earlier of the date the initial purpose for collecting the data is satisfied or within three years of your last interaction with us.”
“We are headquartered in the United States and may use vendors or service providers that operate in other countries.”

Assessment
Reasoning: A video-generation tool. The policy is silent on whether uploaded footage and prompts train Runway models, retains biometric data such as face scans for up to three years, and processes in the US. Fine for marketing assets; unsuitable for footage of employees or customers without a contract.
Flags: Training-use of uploaded content not stated · Face scans and voiceprints retained up to three years · US processing, no EU region · Assessed 2026-09-16. The assessment is Unseen's; the terms above are the vendor's.
