PROOFPOINT PRIVACY POLICY

Contact Us

PRIVACY STATEMENT EFFECTIVE AS OF AUGUST 2, 2022

Proofpoint understands the importance of safeguarding your privacy and we take
this responsibility very seriously. This Privacy Statement is designed to help
you understand how we process personal information, and how you can access and
control this data.

Proofpoint, Inc., headquartered at 925 W. Maude Ave, Sunnyvale, CA 94085,
(https://www.proofpoint.com/us/leadership-team) is responsible for the
management of the personal data within its organization. Proofpoint offers a
range of products and services to customers throughout the world and includes
those offered by any of its affiliated companies (collectively "Proofpoint")
through its appliable websites (the "Site") or in connection with our products
and/or services (the "Proofpoint Service").

Proofpoint is a cybersecurity company specializing in helping organizations
protect against advanced cybersecurity threats and compliance risks. The
Proofpoint Service resides between the email service provider and customer,
acting as a filter to stop harmful content from reaching its customers.
Proofpoint is not an email service provider, meaning that we do not provide
customers with the ability to send or receive emails. We are also not a domain
host and do not manage domain names.

Access to the Proofpoint Service is provided to you through an organization with
which you are affiliated, such as an employer or school. That organization
controls your use of the Proofpoint Service and the data that is transferred to
Proofpoint for processing. You may also provide personal information to
Proofpoint through use of the Site, blogs, marketing requests, and use of the
Proofpoint Service.

By proceeding to use the Site and/or the Proofpoint Service, you consent that we
may process the personal data that we collect from you in accordance with this
Privacy Statement.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

Proofpoint uses the data we collect through manual and automated methods to
protect you and your organization against advanced email threats. This includes:

 * Providing our products, services, and customer support,
 * Improving and enhancing our products and services, including our
   threat-detection capabilities,
 * Continuing to develop threat intelligence to safeguard your organization’s
   important information,
 * Advertising and marketing to you and/or representatives at your organization,
   and
 * Delivering the superior privacy and cybersecurity protection that you expect
   of Proofpoint.

 

Contact Information You Give Us

You may directly give us your contact information in the following ways: (i) if
you sign up for a free trial via www.proofpoint.com, (ii) sign up for offers on
the Site, (iii) sign up for newsletters, (iv) download white papers from the
Site, (v) respond to a promotion offered by a Proofpoint partner, or (vi) send
us an email. Such contact information includes first and last name, title,
company name, industry type, mailing address, telephone number, fax number,
email address and company size ("Contact Information"). We may also collect
information about your mailbox size, which will allow us to classify your
company by size and provide customized information about implementing the
Proofpoint Service within your organization. We may combine your Contact
Information with information collected from others to improve the quality and
value of the Proofpoint Service and to analyze and understand how our Site is
used.

We will use the Contact Information provided to us directly by you to: (i) carry
out our obligations arising from any contracts between you and Proofpoint; (ii)
provide you with the services, products, and/or information which you have
requested from us; (iii) notify you about changes to our services or products;
and (iv) ensure that content from our Site is presented in the most effective
manner for you and your device. We may also use your Contact Information to
contact you with certain marketing or promotional materials, as well as other
information that may be of interest to you. If you no longer consent to our use
of your Contact Information to send you our newsletter or other communications,
please send us an email stating so to privacy@proofpoint.com or follow the
unsubscribe instructions provided in any of the communications.

We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as
needed to provide you the Proofpoint Service. If you wish to cancel your account
or request that we no longer use your information to provide you the Proofpoint
Service, please contact us at privacy@proofpoint.com. Please note that we may
still retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal
obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Personal Data You Post On Our Blog

If you use the blog on this Site, you should be aware that any personal data you
submit there can be read, collected, or used by other users of these blogs, and
could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the
personal data you choose to submit in these blogs. To request removal of your
personal data from our blog, contact us at privacy@proofpoint.com. In some
cases, we may not be able to remove your personal data, in which case we will
inform you if we are unable to do so and why.

Customer Testimonials We Collect From You

We may post customer testimonials/comments/reviews on our Site which may contain
personal data. We will not post a testimonial from you without obtaining your
prior consent.

Log Data and Personal Network Information We Collect From You

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect technical and statistical data
about your visit, such as your browser type, internet service provider (ISP),
referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream
data, the pages you visit and any search terms you use ("Log Data"). We also
collect your public IP address when you visit the Site. We may use your public
IP address in order to determine whether certain requests are fraudulent or
frivolous and we may automatically cross-reference your public IP address with
your domain name (usually the domain name of your ISP or employer). Because you
may be visiting the Site from your personal residence (for example, because you
are telecommuting), your IP address and any associated domain name are treated
as "Personal Network Information" instead of Contact Information. "Log Data"
does not include Personal Network Information. Although such Personal Network
Information may be used to administer and maintain the Site, it is not shared
with any third parties, except as described below in the sections titled
"Service Providers," "Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement" and "Business
Transfers." We will use Log Data for any purpose.

We may also use your Log Data and Personal Network Information to: (i)
administer our Site and for internal operations, including troubleshooting, data
analysis, testing, research, statistical, and survey purposes; (ii) improve our
Site to ensure that content is presented in the most effective manner for you
and for your device; (iii) allow you to participate in interactive features of
our service, when you choose to do so; and/or (iv) as part of our efforts to
keep our Site safe and secure.

Legal basis for processing personal information (EEA visitors only)

If you are a visitor from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for
collecting and using the personal information described above will depend on the
personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will generally collect personal information from you only where we
have your consent to do so, where we need the personal information to fulfill
contractual obligations for you, or where the processing is in our legitimate
interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental
rights and freedoms.

Aggregated Information

After removing any information that would personally identify you from within
the set of Contact Information, Personal Network Information, and Log Data we
collect from you, we may combine that information with information we collect
from other Proofpoint users and customers (collectively, the "Aggregated
Information") to improve the quality and value of Proofpoint Services and to
analyze and understand how our Site is used.

Cookies/Tracking Technologies

Proofpoint and our partners, affiliates, analytics, or service providers use
cookies and other similar technologies.

We use cookies and similar technologies for storing your preferences and
settings, enabling user sign in, to pre-fill a contact form should a user engage
with Proofpoint marketing collateral, analyzing trends, authentication,
administering the site, analyzing how our products perform, and fulfilling other
legitimate purposes. We may receive reports based on the use of these
technologies by our analytics or service providers on an anonymous individual as
well as aggregated basis. Proofpoint does not use cookies or other similar
technologies for targeted advertising.

Users can limit and control the data collected by cookies or other similar
technologies at the individual browser level. If you reject cookies, you may
still use our Site, but your ability to use some features or areas of our Site
may be limited.

Behavioral Targeting / Re-Targeting

We partner with a third party to either display advertising on our Site or to
manage our advertising on other sites. Our third-party partner may use
technologies such as cookies to gather information about your activities on this
Site and other sites to provide you advertising based upon your browsing
activities and interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the
purpose of serving you interest-based ads, you may opt-out by going
to https://optout.networkadvertising.org (or if located in the European Union
please go here https://www.youronlinechoices.eu). Please note this does not opt
you out of being served ads. You will continue to receive generic ads.

The Proofpoint Service

The Proofpoint Service is designed to protect and secure our customers from
malicious attacks such as phishing, targeted impersonation, ransomware,
keylogging, and remote access trojans (RATs). The Proofpoint Service employs a
variety of techniques such as threat prevention, detection and analysis, fraud
prevention, regulatory and compliance archiving, and cyber security awareness
training to protect our customers and their data. Depending on the Proofpoint
Service, we may process the following types of personal data: user-names, email
addresses, IP addresses, phone numbers, message content of an SMS, MMS, or RCS
message reported by you as spam, social media account login credentials, and
user information such as department, job position and location.

INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE

Proofpoint may share your personal data with your consent, or to provide the
products and services requested by your organization. We may also share
information as required by law, to maintain the security of our products and
services, and to protect the rights and property of Proofpoint and/or its
customers. If you have questions or concerns regarding the information shared as
set forth in this Privacy Statement, please contact our Customer Support at
privacy@proofpoint.com.

Marketing Purposes

Where you have consented, we may from time to time share your Contact
Information (name, email address, phone number) with our authorized channel
partners so that they can provide you with information on goods or services that
may be of interest to you. You can, at any time, update your information and/or
opt out of receiving such communications by making your choice known on the form
on which we collected your data or by filling in your information and modifying
"your communication opt out preferences." Before we share personal information,
we enter into written agreements with recipients which contain data protection
terms that safeguard your data.

Analytics Purposes

We may share Aggregated Information (after removing of information that would
personally identify you) and Log Data with third parties for industry analysis,
demographic profiling, and other purposes.

Service Providers

With your consent, or the consent of the organization through which you are
accessing the Proofpoint Service, we may from time to time use certain
third-party business partners, suppliers, and sub-contractors (including
companies and individuals) to perform services, complete transactions, or
provide the Proofpoint Service requested by your affiliated organization. This
may include, but not be limited to, website hosting, maintenance services,
database management, Web analytics, and improvement of the Site's features
(“Service Providers”). These Service Providers have access to your personal data
only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or
use it for any other purpose.

Proofpoint, Inc. remains liable under applicable law for the processing of your
data. If you further are routed or otherwise make any web-browsing selection
that takes you to another party's website, you will be subject to the terms of
such third-party privacy statement for any activities that you conduct while on
that third-party service.

Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement

Proofpoint cooperates with government and law enforcement officials and private
parties to enforce and comply with applicable law. We may disclose your personal
data to government or law enforcement officials or private parties in response
to lawful requests if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal
data in order to comply with any legal obligation (such as to meet national
security or law enforcement requirements) to enforce or apply our terms and
conditions or respond to claims and legal process, to protect the property and
rights of Proofpoint or a third party, to protect the safety of the public or
any person, or to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical or legally actionable
activity (including for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk
reduction). For further information, please refer to the Information Disclosure
Statement maintained on our Trust site.

Business Transfers

If Proofpoint is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion
of its assets, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our
Site of any change in ownership or uses of your personal data, as well as any
choices you may have regarding your personal data.

ACCESS AND CONTROL OF YOUR INFORMATION

Proofpoint is committed to maintaining the privacy and security of personal data
entrusted to us. You can control the type of information your share directly
with Proofpoint and can request that we stop using or sharing that data by
contacting our Customer Support at privacy@proofpoint.com us at the links
provided in this Privacy Statement.

You have rights to access your personal data under applicable data privacy laws
and may correct, amend, or delete the information under certain conditions. Upon
request, Proofpoint will provide you with information about whether we hold any
of your personal information. If you would like to exercise your right to
access, correct, update, or delete your information, please contact our Customer
Support at privacy@proofpoint.com. We will respond to your request to access
within a reasonable timeframe.

In some cases, your ability to access or control the personal data may be
limited by applicable law, contract, or the product you are using. If you seek
to access and control the personal data provided to us by your organization, you
may contact us at the links provided in this document or our Trust site, or your
affiliated organization (the data controller). Please note that Proofpoint has
no direct relationship with the individuals whose personal data it processes at
the direction of the affiliated organization and reserves the right to contact
your organization regarding any requests you may submit to Proofpoint to access,
control, or delete the data.

Data retention

Proofpoint retains the personal information it collects from you where we have
an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a
service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or
accounting requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal
information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible
(for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup
archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it
from any further processing until deletion is possible.

SECURITY & INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER

Proofpoint is a multi-national corporation with cross-border technical systems,
intra-group relationships and business processes. If you are located outside of
the United States and provide personal data to us, Proofpoint may transfer your
personal data to the United States and use it there in accordance with this
Privacy Statement.

Proofpoint employs generally accepted standards of administrative, physical,
procedural, and technological measures designed to protect your information from
unauthorized access, both during transmission and once it is received. If you
have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can
contact us at privacy@proofpoint.com.

However, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method
of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, although Proofpoint complies
with its legal obligations in respect of the security of your personal data we
cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Privacy Shield

Proofpoint complies with the principles set forth in the EU-US and Swiss-US
Privacy Shield, which may be found at https://www.privacyshield.gov/list, but
does not rely on the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework as the legal basis for
transfers of personal data.  Proofpoint has always included the Standard
Contractual Clauses (SCCs) in its standard data processing agreement as its
primary data transfer mechanism and we will continue to rely on the SCCs as a
legal basis for transferring personal data to and processing such data in the
US. Proofpoint’s data privacy agreement, including the SCCs, can be found on
Proofpoint’s Trust Site.

With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the Privacy
Shield Frameworks, Proofpoint, Inc. may be subject to the regulatory enforcement
powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. In certain situations, Proofpoint,
Inc. may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by
public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement
requirements.

If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed
satisfactorily, please contact our U.S.-based third party dispute resolution
provider (free of charge) at https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request.

Under certain conditions, more fully described on the Privacy Shield
website https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=How-to-Submit-a-Complaint, you
may invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have
been exhausted.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES

Our Site contains links to other websites. If you click on a third-party link
you will be directed to that third party's website. We do not exercise control
over third-party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or
other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personally identifiable
information from you. This Privacy Statement addresses the use and disclosure of
information that we collect from you through this Site. Other sites follow
different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the personally identifiable
information you submit to them. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or
statements of the other websites you visit. The fact that we link to a website
is not an endorsement, authorization, or representation of our affiliation with
that third party, nor is it an endorsement of their privacy or information
security policies or practices.

SOCIAL MEDIA WIDGETS

Our Web site includes Social Media Features, such as the Facebook Like button
and Widgets, such as the Share this button or interactive mini-programs that run
on our site. These Features may collect your IP address, which page you are
visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the Feature to function
properly. Social Media Features and Widgets are either hosted by a third party
or hosted directly on our Site. Your interactions with these Features are
governed by the privacy statement of the company providing it.

OUR POLICY TOWARD CHILDREN

This Site is not directed to children under 18. If a parent or guardian becomes
aware that his or her child has provided us with personal or contact information
without their consent, he or she should contact us at privacy@proofpoint.com. If
we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personally
identifiable information, we will delete such information from our files
immediately.

maintain a Trust site at https://www.proofpoint.com/legal/trust where additional
information about the security measures and procedures applicable to each
Proofpoint  Service may be found. Proofpoint’s customers will also find on the
