PRIVACY POLICY



Effective November 23, 2023

Broadcom, Inc. and its global affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively,
“Broadcom”) value your privacy. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes how
Broadcom collects, stores, uses, and discloses your Personal Data. This Policy
is issued on behalf of Broadcom, so a reference to “we”, “us”, or “our” in this
Policy is a reference to the relevant company in Broadcom that is responsible
for processing your Personal Data.

Additional privacy information may be provided in offer descriptions,
contractual terms, supplemental privacy statements or notices provided prior to
or at the time of data collection. Certain Broadcom products and services may
have additional specific privacy notices. In case of conflict, such specific
privacy notices shall derogate from this general policy.

Please note that this Policy only governs Broadcom's collection and processing
of your Personal Data in the context of your direct interactions with Broadcom
as an individual Data Subject and not as an employee or candidate of employment
of Broadcom. Where you are the end-user of a Broadcom Product procured by your
Organization, then your Organization's own privacy policy is applicable to your
use of that Product, and Broadcom will process your Personal Data in that
context pursuant to the terms of the Data Processing Agreement in place between
your Organization and Broadcom.


What Information Do We Collect About You and Why?
We may ask you to provide us with Personal Data about yourself in order to

Biometric data
Broadcom does not collect, capture, possess, receive or process any biometric
data such as retina or iris scans, fingerprints, voiceprints, or scans of hand
or face geometry, and it expressly prohibits its customers from providing any
such data to Broadcom.

Broadcom does provide certain multifactor authentication services to its
customers, whereby a key pair with a public and a private key is created. The
private key will remain on Customer’s device and the public key will be sent to
Broadcom. If a Customer chooses to collect biometric data for authentication
purposes from their end users, such biometric data will only be stored locally
on Customer’s device, for use by Customer to access the private key created and
retained on Customer’s physical device. Broadcom does not collect or have access
to data that would be considered “biometric” and the public key does not derive
or contain any biometric data. Broadcom only uses the public key to verify
Customer end user’s identity. Customers may remove the public key through
Broadcom’s self-service console or it will be deleted once the contract is
terminated.

Legal Basis of Processing
In order to collect, use and otherwise process your Personal Data for the above
listed commercial and business purposes, we may rely on the following legal
bases as appropriate and relevant in the specific context:

 * Our legitimate interest in providing its websites and making the Services
   available to you, provided our interest is not outweighed by the risk of harm
   to your rights and freedoms.

 * Your consent, where we have obtained your consent to process your Personal
   Data for certain activities. You may withdraw your consent at any time by
   using the contextual preference tools available in the communications or in
   the user interfaces of the products and services we provide to you. Absent
   those, please contact us as explained below. However, please note that your
   withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of any use of your
   Personal Data by Broadcom based on your consent prior to withdrawal.

 * To fulfill any contractual obligations, such as where you have purchased a
   product or service from Broadcom. For example, we may require your contact
   details in order to deliver your order if you have purchased a product from
   us.

 * For compliance with Broadcom’s legal obligations where applicable laws
   require us to process your Personal Data.

If you have any questions or would like more information regarding the legal
basis on which we collect your Personal Data, please review the supplemental
privacy notice(s) of the products or services concerned, or contact us as
explained below.

Processing Of Personal Data For The Purposes Of Fraud Prevention And Network and
Information Security
On the basis of legitimate interest, we process Personal Data for fraud
prevention and network and information security purposes. Pursuant to the EU
General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and other applicable privacy
legislation, organizations have a recognized legitimate interest in collecting
and processing Personal Data to the extent strictly necessary and proportionate
for the purposes of preventing fraud and ensuring network and information
security. Network and information security means the ability of a network or of
an information system to resist events, attacks or unlawful or malicious actions
that could compromise the availability, authenticity, integrity and
confidentiality of stored or transmitted data, or the security of the related
services offered by, or accessible via those networks and systems.

Both as an organization in our own right, and as a provider of payment security
services and cybersecurity technologies and services, it is in our legitimate
interests as well as in our customers’, to collect and process Personal Data to
the extent strictly necessary and proportionate for the purposes of preventing
“Fraudulent Payment Transactions” and ensuring the security of our own, and of
our customers’ payment transactions and information networks and systems. This
includes the development of payment transaction records and of threat
intelligence resources aimed at maintaining and improving on an ongoing basis
our ability to detect Fraudulent Payment Transactions, and the ability of
networks and systems to resist unlawful or malicious actions and other harmful
events affecting information networks and systems (“Cyber-Threats”).

The Personal Data we process for the prevention of Fraudulent Payment
Transactions include, without limitation:

 * Information related to electronic means of payment and related entitlements;

 * Information related to electronic payment transactions;

 * Contextual signals and indicators of suspected fraud;

 * Verification information to confirm or dispel suspected fraud; and

 * Evidence of suspected, detected and/or confirmed fraud.

The Personal Data we process for network and information security purposes
include, without limitation, network traffic data related to Cyber-Threats such
as:

 * sender email addresses (e.g., of sources of SPAM);

 * recipient email addresses (e.g., of victims of targeted email cyberattacks);

 * reply-to email addresses (e.g., as configured by cybercriminals sending
   malicious email);

 * filenames and execution paths (e.g., of malicious or otherwise harmful
   executable files attached to emails);

 * URLs and associated page titles (e.g., of web pages broadcasting or hosting
   malicious or otherwise harmful contents); and/or

 * IP addresses (e.g., of web servers and connected devices involved in the
   generation, distribution, conveyance, hosting, caching or other storage of
   Cyber-Threats such as malicious or otherwise harmful contents).

Depending on the context in which such data is collected, it may contain
Personal Data concerning you or any other data subjects. However, in such cases,
we will process the data concerned only to the extent strictly necessary and
proportionate to the purposes of detecting, blocking, reporting and mitigating
the Fraudulent Payment Transaction or Cyber-Threat of concern to you, and to all
organizations relying on our products and services to secure their payment
transactions, and information networks and systems. When processing Personal
Data in this context, we will only seek to identify data subjects:

 * to the extent that it is an inherent part to the services that our customers
   hire us to perform for them, and as such it is strictly indispensable to the
   prevention of the fraud and/or the remediation of the Cyber-Threat concerned,
   or

 * if and as required by law.

If you believe that your Personal Data was unduly collected or is unduly
processed by Broadcom for such purposes, please refer to the “Your Rights” and
“Contact Us” sections below. Please be aware that if it is determined that
Personal Data concerning you is processed by Broadcom because it is critical for
the prevention of Fraudulent Payment Transactions, or the detection, blocking or
mitigation of Cyber-Threats, then in certain cases the legitimate interest to
pursue such processing may be compelling enough to override access, objection,
rectification or erasure requests related to the data concerned.

Automated Individual Decision-Making And Profiling
Where Broadcom processes payment transaction security or network traffic data
for the purpose of fraud prevention, respectively network and information
security, automated decisions concerning particular payment transactions or
cyber events may occasionally be made. This could involve in particular
assigning relative payment fraud risk, respectively cybersecurity risk scores to
ongoing or recent payment transactions, information network activities or system
behaviors. Such automatically-assigned risk scores may be leveraged by you, by
Broadcom, by our partners and by other customers to detect, block and mitigate
the detected Fraudulent Payment Transaction or Cyber-Threat. They could
therefore result in said partners and customers blocking payment transactions
they deem to be fraudulent, halting network traffic coming from or going to
suspected or known malicious addresses. Such processing is not intended to
produce any other effect than protecting you, Broadcom, our partners and our
other customers from fraudulent payment transactions, respectively
Cyber-Threats. Should you nevertheless consider that such automated processing
is unduly affecting you in a significant way, please contact directly the
relevant data controller whose use of our products and services is thus
impacting you. In case that data controller is Broadcom, please refer to the
“Your Privacy Rights” and “Contact Us” sections of this Policy to raise your
concerns and to seek our help in finding a satisfactory solution.

Processing Of Pseudonymous Data To Improve the Performance of Broadcom Hardware
Certain mobile devices equipped with a Broadcom GPS chip occasionally require
querying Broadcom's geolocation assistance server. At the user’s request when
launching a geolocation service on their device, the chip will transmit to
Broadcom over TCP/IP the device's then-current broad city-level location. In
response, the server will designate to the chip the then-relevant satellites to
connect to. This service reduces the time needed for the chip to achieve
accurate GPS location from about 15 minutes to less than 1 minute. Broadcom does
not manually access, inspect, disclose, retain, correlate or reuse any of the
data associated with this service. The logs related to this service only contain
the dynamic IP address from which the device connected to the service, and these
logs are purged on a rolling 24-hour basis. Broadcom is not in a position to
identify any individual end-user based on the information involved in this
service.

To Whom Do We Disclose Your Information And Why?
Broadcom does not sell or share, within the meaning of the California Privacy
Rights Act, your personal information. We only disclose your information as
described in this Policy. Broadcom processes your information for the purposes
described in this policy, which include the above-listed commercial and business
purposes in the meaning of the CCPA (see the “How Do We Use Your Information?”
section above). We may disclose Personal Data collected about you as follows:

including, without limitation, reviews, comments, pictures and text will be
available to, and searchable by, all users of the Site.

third parties for marketing, advertising, research, or similar purposes.

Please be advised that personal data collected through and for the purposes of
user-requested alerts and service notifications, including and not limited to
short code text messages in the U.S. and Canada, will not be disclosed, shared,
sold or rented to any affiliated or unaffiliated third parties for marketing
purposes.

only be present if that is in accordance with our Cookie Policy and VMware
Cookie Policy, and in line with your cookie choices. If you do not wish Broadcom
to sell or share your data in the meaning of the California Privacy Rights Act
with such third parties, you may use the Do Not Sell or Share button available
in the website’s cookie management tool at any time.

What About Links To Other Websites?
Our Site and services may contain links to third party websites for your
convenience. Any access to and use of such linked websites will cause you to
leave the Site. Third party websites, even if potentially serving content
co-branded by Broadcom, are not governed by this Policy, but instead are
governed by their own privacy statements/policies. We recommend that you check
the privacy statements/policies of every third party website you visit before
providing any Personal Data. We do not control those third party websites and
are not responsible for their content or their privacy policies. Thus, we do not
endorse or make any legal representations about them. If you decide to access
any of the third party websites linked to our Site, you do so entirely at your
own risk.

How Do We Secure Your Personal Data?
We have implemented administrative, technical, physical, electronic, and
managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect from
loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction and
to help maintain data accuracy and ensure that your Personal Data is used
appropriately. Broadcom has an internal Global Customer Privacy Program. Its
charter is to ensure appropriate privacy processes are in place in order to meet
the practices outlined herein. Where Personal Data is processed by service
providers on behalf of Broadcom, we take steps to require those vendors to also
comply with applicable data protection laws.

How Long Do We Retain Your Personal Data?
We will retain your Personal Data for the period necessary to fulfill the
purposes outlined in this Policy and/or in applicable supplemental notices,
unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights described below
with respect to your Personal Data. In particular, if you are a United States
resident, the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), the Virginia Consumer Data
Protection Act (CDPA), the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) the Utah Consumer Privacy
Act (UCPA) or the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA) may apply to your
information, we provide some or all of these disclosures and tools described in
this Policy so you can exercise your rights to receive information about our
data practices, as well as to request access to and deletion of your
information. To exercise your rights, you may:

 * make use of the self-serve tools available in the products or services you
   are using;

 * submit your privacy request via the Request Intake Form; or the Privacy
   Contact Form for requests related to VMware

 * contact your customer support representative.

It is our legal obligation to validate any request we receive before responding.
The Request Intake Form linked above is specifically designed to ensure reliable
and auditable request validation. Therefore we will not respond to requests that
are not submitted and cannot be validated through this channel. If it is
impossible for you to use any of the methods listed above, please contact the
Privacy Office as indicated below to find a resolution.

Email and Marketing. In most instances, we give you options with regard to the
Personal Data you provide, including choices with respect to marketing
materials. You may manage your receipt of marketing and non-transactional
communications by: (i) clicking on the “unsubscribe” link located at the bottom
of marketing emails; or (ii) checking certain boxes on our preference center
which can also be found on certain forms we use to collect Personal Data.

Access. You may request information regarding Personal Data that we collect and
hold about you and the source(s) of that information. To access your Personal
Data, return to the product, service or web page where you originally entered it
and follow the instructions in your user interface or on that web page. If you
cannot access your information in this way, please submit your request through
the appropriate Request Intake Portal indicated above. If none of these options
applies, please contact us as described in the “How Can You Contact Us?” section
below.

Please note that copies of information that you have updated, modified or
deleted may remain viewable in cached and archived pages particularly of the
Site for a limited period of time. If you request a change to or deletion of
your Personal Data, please note that we may still need to retain certain
information for record-keeping purposes, and/or to complete any transactions
that you began prior to requesting such change or deletion (e.g., when you make
a purchase, you may not be able to change or delete the Personal Data provided
until after the completion of such purchase). Some of your information may also
remain within our systems and other records where necessary for compliance with
applicable law.

You can request a copy of any Personal Data we hold about you, and of which you
don’t already have a copy. This service is usually free of charge, although we
have the right to charge a ‘reasonable fee’ in some circumstances;

Rectification. You have the right to request that we rectify any inaccuracies in
relation to the Personal Data we hold about you;


Erasure. In some circumstances, you have the right to request the erasure of
your Personal Data or object to the further processing of your information;


Restriction of Processing. In some circumstances, you have the right to require
us to restrict processing of your Personal Data;


Objection. You have the right to object to any direct marketing or to other
processing of your Personal Data based on our or on third parties’ legitimate
interests, unless such interests are compelling enough to override your
objection;


Not to be discriminated against for exercising any of your other privacy
rights. You may exercise any of your rights in this section without us
discriminating against you in any way. Note however that you may be subject to
differentiated treatment if and to the extent that the exercise of your rights
materially impacts our ability to provide certain services to you (e.g. if you
request the deletion of your account information or access credentials, then we
may no longer be able to grant you access to restricted areas of our websites).
Such differentiated treatment is objectively justified and does not constitute
discrimination.


Withdraw Consent. You have the right to withdraw consent to us processing your
Personal Data. This will not affect the processing already carried out with your
consent;


Not to be subject to decisions based on automated processing. In some
circumstances, you have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on
automated processing, and to obtain the human review of any such decisions that
significantly affect you (please refer to the earlier section on automated
decision making); and


Complain. You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you
approach our supervisory authority so please contact us in the first instance.

marketing purposes. California law provides that you have the right to submit a
request to Broadcom at its designated address and receive the following

    third parties’ direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year;

 2. The names and addresses of third parties that received such information; and

    from the third party's name, examples of the products or services marketed.

You are entitled to receive a copy of this information up to one request per
calendar year in a standardized format and the information will not be specific
to you individually. Broadcom’s designated email address for such requests is
the one indicated in the contact details above. We reserve our right not to
respond to requests submitted to addresses other than the addresses specified in
this paragraph. In your request, please attest to the fact that you are a
California resident and provide a current California address for your response.
Please allow up to thirty (30) days for a response.

How Are Cross-Border Transfers of Data Performed? 


Subject to your permission or as permitted by law, the Personal Data that you
provide to us may be transferred within Broadcom across state or country
borders. This may be done to consolidate data storage or to simplify the
management of customer information. We have adopted globally recognized privacy
principles and only collect and/or transmit your Personal Data to the extent it
is necessary to conduct business and perform requested services. Broadcom and
its service providers comply with applicable legal requirements providing for
adequate protection of Personal Data transferred to countries outside of the
country of collection or residence.

In certain cases, where Personal Data is transferred to countries that are not
offering an adequate level of Personal Data protection in relation to the
