This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) explains how we collect information pertaining to businesses and business people (“Business Information”) and all other types of information, including personal information, through our online services (the “Services”), website, and mobile applications (collectively with the Services, the “Site”); how we maintain, use, and share that information; and how you can manage the way information about you is handled. “ZoomInfo” for purposes of this Privacy Policy includes DiscoverOrg Data, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its affiliates, including Zoom Information, Inc. For individuals residing in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, please click here to find out more information. For residents of the State of California, please click here to find out more about your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”). I. HOW WE COLLECT INFORMATION A. Where does ZoomInfo get the Business Information for its Business Profiles? ZoomInfo creates profiles of business people and companies, which we call “Business Profiles,” from different sources. Once we have collected Business Information about a person or company, we combine multiple mentions of the same person or company into a Business Profile. The resulting directory of Business Profiles (the “Directory”) is then made available to the users of the Site and our customers and strategic partners. Business Information that may be provided in a Business Profile includes name, email address, job title and department, phone number, company name, postal address of company and business-related postal address of the person, employment history, and education history. Business Profiles may also include links to articles by, about, or quoting an individual and links to an individual’s social media profiles. ZoomInfo obtains the data for its Business Profiles in several ways, including: 1. Our search technology scans the web and gathers publicly-available information. 2. We license information from other companies. 3. Users contribute Business Information about themselves or other people and companies. (See “ZoomInfo Community Edition,” below) 4. Through market research surveys and phone interviews conducted by our in-house research team. ZoomInfo also makes certain limited Business Information from its Business Profiles publicly available in our directory pages on our Site (the “Public Directory”). The categories of Business Information that may be made available in the Public Directory include past or current name, company, company headquarters telephone number, office address, job title, and/or education information. B. How does the ZoomInfo Community Edition and the ZoomInfo Contact Contributor Work? ZoomInfo offers a service called ZoomInfo Community Edition (“Community Edition”). To subscribe to Community Edition, you are required to install software offered on the Site, known as the ZoomInfo Contact Contributor (the “Software”) or otherwise provide ZoomInfo with access to your email account. When you subscribe to Community Edition, you allow ZoomInfo to access certain Business Information stored by the application that your computer uses to manage your email and contacts, known as an “email client” (e.g., Microsoft Outlook) or stored by a provider of cloud services for email (e.g., Google Apps). If required to access this Business Information stored on your computer’s email and contact application(s), you may need to provide ZoomInfo with the necessary username and password information. We use this Business Information to improve the size and quality of our Directory. In exchange for allowing this access, you receive a subscription to Community Edition at no charge under specified terms and conditions (available at /about-zoominfo/ce-terms-conditions). From the contacts within your email client and “signatures” within email messages, we collect the following Business Information, if available, for each person: * Name * Email address * Job title and department * Business phone numbers (general, direct, and fax) * Company name * Postal address of company * Business related postal address of person * Corporate website URLs * Social Networking URLs From the headers of your emails, we collect the following Business Information, if available: * Metadata such as Internet Protocol addresses and the dates email messages are sent or received * Email addresses, names, and job titles of recipients and senders To ensure the integrity of the Directory, we take the following steps: * Business Information Only – ZoomInfo only wants business-related information. Therefore, any contacts that have an address from a consumer-oriented service such as Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo are disregarded. * Unattributed – We do not disclose who contributed particular information using the ZoomInfo Contact Contributor software or other contribution methods. (The only exceptions: See “Disclosures to Service Providers,” “Disclosures for Legal Reasons,” and “Disclosures to a Buyer of the Company,” below.) * Opt Out – Anyone added to the Directory may request to be removed at any time, via email, web, or a toll-free number. We promptly honor such requests. ZoomInfo does not “read” the body of your email messages; our technology automatically extracts only the data we describe in this Policy. We do not collect data from custom fields or notes in your email client. Information from your email client will continue to be shared as described above as long as the Software remains installed. If you choose to stop sharing information from your email client with ZoomInfo, you can uninstall the Software at any time following the instructions at /cefaq. You may not, however, retroactively “unshare” the Business Information you have already made available to ZoomInfo. C. Customer Information Customer Information Collected. ZoomInfo may collect the following information from or regarding its customers: (1) personal contact information regarding users of the Services (“User Information”); (2) information uploaded to our system by a user of the Services (“Uploaded Information”); and (3) usage logs regarding the use of the Site and Services, including logins and other actions taken, time stamps, IP address, and other usage data (“Usage Logs”) (collectively, “Customer Information”). You may be a user that has been provided access to the Site through your company license agreement. Your employer may require that one or more users have global rights to access any and all information of every user that has access through the company. If you have questions or concerns regarding the rights of other individuals in your company to access your User Information, Uploaded Information, or Usage Logs, you should raise those concerns with the appropriate person at your company. Use of Customer Information. Customer Information may be used for ZoomInfo’s legitimate business interests in connection with your use of the Site, including to respond to user inquiries and fulfill user requests, complete transactions, provide customer service, send administrative information, and to personalize user experience with the Site. We may use Customer Information to better understand our users in general and to improve the content and functionality of the Site. We may use Customer Information to contact you in the future to tell you about services, promotions, opportunities, and other general information about ZoomInfo we believe will be of interest to you. We may use Customer Information to investigate and prosecute potential breaches of ZoomInfo’s security or license agreements. ZoomInfo will not disclose Customer Information to any third party except in connection with a legitimate use as set forth herein, in connection with a bona fide legal dispute to which such information is relevant, in response to valid, compulsory legal process, or as otherwise required by law. ZoomInfo will, whenever possible, obtain confidentiality agreements from any person or entity to whom Customer Information is disclosed and ensure any recipients are committed to employing appropriate technological security measures. ZoomInfo employs reasonable security and back-up procedures to protect Customer Information. However, in the unlikely event there is a loss or corruption of Customer Information, ZoomInfo is not responsible or liable for such loss or corruption. We encourage our users to retain copies of all Uploaded Information on their own system. D. How else does ZoomInfo Collect Information? When you submit information through our Site.

A more detailed description of how we may collect and use customer information can be found in the “Customer Information Collected” section above. When you provide information to our customers. We receive information about our customers’ end-users from or on behalf of our customers. Because of the nature of our Services, this information may contain any type of data, but typically includes name, contact information, and company information, such as company name. We may also collect data about you automatically through your use of our Services, as described in the “Cookies and Similar Technologies” section below.

When you refer a friend. If you choose to use our referral service to invite a friend to join ZoomInfo, we will ask you for your friend’s name and email address.

Our data analytics tools and capabilities enable our customers to collect, store, analyze, and share the contents of audio, video, image, and text-based communications such as phone calls, video calls, emails, chats, webinars, and meetings, along with associated data and documentation. These recordings and analysis thereof may also contain Business Information or personal information, such as names, titles, and contact information. We may reproduce, analyze, summarize, and disclose these files, recordings, and any results of our Services with such customers and their relevant personnel and other team members, and customers may share this information with their personnel or others.

The collection and use of such biometric information are governed by our Biometric Privacy Notice in addition to this Policy. When you use our mobile applications. When you download and use our mobile applications, we collect certain information from you including your device type, operating system, location, platform used, device ID, and the date you last used the app, among other non-personally identifiable information. We may also collect other information such as your name, email, company name, and information about your account with us.

This information is collected to provide you with certain app features, such as meeting briefs with meeting and contact details within the app. When you use ZoomInfo Integrations. As part of the Services, ZoomInfo may make available to its customers certain “Integrations.” In using ZoomInfo’s Integrations, such as ZoomInfo’s SFNA and web browser extensions, Business Information from customer’s CRM, MAT, or sales enablement software may be transmitted to ZoomInfo for purposes of matching or cleansing the customer’s data against ZoomInfo’s database as a feature of the Services. In that event, ZoomInfo may retain and store such Business Information for purposes of identifying potential contacts to supplement the Services, verifying the accuracy of such Business Information, removing out-of-date Business Information from the Services, or otherwise improving ZoomInfo’s research processes and the content provided through the Services. Information so received will not be attributable to the source. In the event that any customer wishes to opt out of ZoomInfo’s use of such information, they may do so by visiting the ‘Privacy Center’ within the ZoomInfo Salesforce Native Application and adjusting the appropriate controls. When you connect the Services to your email or calendar. In order to provide certain Services, ZoomInfo may require access to your email account and/or calendar (e.g., through G-Suite or Office 365). Depending on the specific Services being used, we may collect email header information, email subjects, email bodies and attachments, and calendar meeting information such as meeting participants, meeting description, subject, and date and time of the meeting. Customers have control over what data is collected, including which mailboxes are connected, whether message attachments or content is collected, and which emails or email domains should not be collected.

After we receive your request, we will send you an email message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. ZoomInfo will not share information about you that you submit when you register for our Services with third parties for promotional uses unless you opt in to such sharing within your ZoomInfo account or ZoomInfo has separately acquired such information from other sources, in which case ZoomInfo will give you the opportunity to opt out via email.

The security of your information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as a credit card number) on our registration forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of Internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. VII. DATA RETENTION We will retain your information for a period of time consistent with the original purpose(s) for which we collected it, as described in this Privacy Policy. We will retain your information (i) for as long as we have an ongoing relationship with you and as needed to provide you Services; (ii) as necessary to comply with our legal obligation(s); (iii) as necessary to resolve disputes or to protect ourselves from potential future disputes; or (iv) as necessary to enforce our agreements. Retention periods will be determined taking into account the amount, nature, and sensitivity of your information and the purpose(s) for which it was collected. After the retention period ends, we will delete your information. Where we are unable to do so, we will ensure that appropriate measures are put in place to prevent any further use of your information. VIII.

ZoomInfo’s collection of Business Information, and the creation and licensing of ZoomInfo’s Business Profiles and Directory, are within ZoomInfo’s legitimate interests to organize and make available business contact information given the limited impact of this data on an individual’s private life and that this information, unlike personal contact details, is widely disclosed.

Please see “Privacy Shield Frameworks” below regarding our compliance with the EU- and Swiss-US Privacy Shields. Individual Rights: If you are a resident of the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you are entitled to the following rights under the GDPR. Please note: In order to verify your identity, we may require you to provide us with personal information prior to accessing any records containing information about you. * The right to access, correction, and restriction of processing.
