Electronic storage = liability risk??

Hey guys, just wondering if any of you know for certain if electronic storage could cause a potential liability risk? I'm mainly referring to the personal info that a potential tenant will fill out on an application like their ss#. If I or my LLC use a cloud storage method for saving all the applications and personal data and that company gets hacked and the tenant's info gets released, am I or my LLC liable? Could something as simple as a waiver they have to sign on the application protect me and my LLC from a lawsuit? I assume it would probably be a good idea to do that regardless, but I am curious who gets blamed. Me or the cloud storage company. TIA
