ZOOMINFO PRIVACY POLICY



Updated: July 25, 2022
Effective: August 1, 2022

ZoomInfo understands that you care about how information about you is used. This
Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) explains how we process personal information,
including information pertaining to business people (“Business Information”) and
all other types of 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 ZoomInfo Technologies
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its affiliates.

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. Introduction

This brief summary of certain information in this Policy is intended to help you
quickly understand who ZoomInfo is, how you can opt-out of our database, and the
potential outcomes of remaining in our database. 

ZoomInfo collects business contact and similar information related to
individuals when they are working in their professional or employment capacity,
and uses this information to create professional profiles of individuals and
profiles of businesses. We provide this information to our customers, who are
businesses trying to reach business professionals for their own
business-to-business sales, marketing, and recruiting activities. 

You can opt out of our database by visiting our Privacy Center. At the Privacy
Center you can also submit an access request or claim your professional profile
and update your profile information. Using the Privacy Center is the quickest
and easiest way to access your information or have it deleted or corrected.
However, if you prefer to email or call us, our contact information is listed
under the “Contact Us” section at the end of this Policy.

By remaining in our database, you may be contacted by our customers when they
are conducting their business-to-business sales, marketing, and recruiting
activities. Communications you receive from our customers may be relevant to
your profession or employment role, but we cannot guarantee that you will find
such communications to be relevant or of interest to you.


II. 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
“Professional Profiles” and “Business Profiles,” respectively. Once we have
collected Business Information about a person or company, we may combine
multiple data points regarding a single person or company into a Professional or
Business Profile. The resulting directory of Professional and 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
Professional Profile includes name, email address including business and/or
other email addresses (including “freemails” such as Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail,
etc.), job title and department, phone number (general or direct business
numbers, faxes, and/or mobile numbers), 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. Our users and customers contribute information about themselves or other
    people and companies. 
 4. Through market research surveys, phone interviews, and other research
    conducted by our in-house research team.

ZoomInfo also makes certain limited Business Information from its Professional
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, a user must install software
offered on the Site known as the ZoomInfo Contact Contributor (the “Software”)
or otherwise provide ZoomInfo with access to the user’s email account. When a
user installs the Software or otherwise provides ZoomInfo access to an email
account, the user allows ZoomInfo to access certain Business Information stored
by the application that the user’s computer uses to manage the user’s 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 the user’s computer’s email and contact
application(s), the user 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, the
user receives a subscription to Community Edition at no charge under specified
terms and conditions (available at /about-zoominfo/ce-terms-conditions).

Information that may be collected from the user’s email client includes the
following, if available:

 * Name
 * Email address
 * Job title and department
 * Phone numbers (general or direct business numbers, faxes and/or mobile
   numbers)
 * Company name
 * Postal address of company
 * Business related postal address of person
 * Corporate website URLs
 * Social media URLs
 * Metadata such as Internet Protocol addresses, the dates email messages are
   sent or received, and subject line information
 * 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 – Emails sent to Community Edition users from
   consumer-oriented email services (or “freemails”) 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, except as discussed below. (See “Disclosures to Service Providers,”
   “Disclosures for Legal Reasons,” and “Disclosures to a Buyer of the Company”)
 * Opt Out – Anyone added to the Directory may request to be removed at any
   time, via email, web, or a toll-free number. We will fulfill such requests as
   promptly as we can, and in any event within any time period that may be
   required by applicable law.

ZoomInfo does not “read” the body of 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 the email client.

Information extracted may continue to be shared as described above as long as
the Software remains installed or the user continues to allow ZoomInfo’s access
to the user’s email account. To stop sharing information with ZoomInfo, a user
can uninstall the Software at any time or disable ZoomInfo’s access to the
user’s email account through the user’s email account settings. 

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 or
otherwise provided to our system by a user of the Services (“Uploaded
Information”); (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”); and (4) any other information from or relating to
users of our Services (“Related Information”) (collectively, “Customer
Information”).

Certain users may be provided access to the Site through a company’s license
agreement. Such company may require that one or more users have global rights to
access any and all information of every user that has access through that
company’s ZoomInfo account. Questions or concerns regarding the rights of other
individuals in your company to access your information should be addressed to
your company.

Use of Customer Information. Customer Information may be used for ZoomInfo’s
legitimate business interests in connection with a customer or its users’ 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 test,
develop, improve, and enhance our Services and Site. We may use Customer
Information to contact customers or its users in the future about services,
promotions, opportunities, and other general information about ZoomInfo. 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 in this Policy, in connection with
a bona fide legal dispute to which such information is relevant, in response to
valid, compulsory legal process, in response to a valid data subject request
where required by applicable law, or as otherwise required by law. ZoomInfo
will, whenever possible, obtain confidentiality agreements from any service
provider to whom Customer Information is disclosed and ensure any recipient
service providers 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?

Information submitted through our Site. Visitors to our Site may choose to
submit their name, email address, phone number, and/or other information so that
they can learn more about our Services, register to take part in a
ZoomInfo-sponsored event, participate in a survey, contest, or sweepstakes, or
apply to ZoomInfo’s open job positions, among other things. By accessing, using,
and/or submitting information through the Site, including by filling out forms
on our website, regardless of whether the form is ultimately submitted, a user
of the Site consents to the practices described in this Policy with regard to
the information collected about them. If you do not agree with this Policy, you
should not submit any information through our Site and you must delete all
cookies from your browser cache after visiting the Site and refrain from
visiting or using the Site.

Managing Professional Profiles. ZoomInfo allows any person to claim their
Professional Profile and to update the information listed about them in their
Professional Profile. We use the information submitted to update a Professional
Profile solely for purposes of verifying such person’s identity, updating their
Professional Profile information, and honoring such person’s privacy
preferences. For additional information, see the “Your Choices” section below. 

Use of our Services. In order to use certain ZoomInfo Services, users may be
required to register. From time to time, we may use a user’s email address to
send information about our products and services. Recipients are provided with
an opportunity to opt out of receiving such emails. We may also communicate with
users regarding their use of our Services or Site, including changes to this
Policy. Users may have the option to provide additional information when
completing surveys in connection with use of Comparably. Information that may be
collected includes information such as age, gender, education, employment
history, job titles, salary, years of experience, and benefit information and is
governed by Comparably’s privacy policy, available here. A more detailed
description of how we may collect and use customer information can be found in
the “Customer Information Collected” section above.

Providing 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 automatically through use of our Services, as
described in the “Cookies and Similar Technologies” section below. Any
information provided through a website, application, or service on which a
customer uses our Services is subject to the customer’s privacy policy and
applicable terms. When we provide our Services to a customer, we generally act
as a “data processor,” and the customer is considered to be the “data
controller,” as further described in the “When ZoomInfo is a Controller” and
“When ZoomInfo is a Processor” sections below. 

Referring a friend. If a user invites a friend to join ZoomInfo, we will ask for
such friend’s name and email address, and we will automatically send such friend
a one-time email inviting them to visit the Site. 

Purchasing our products and Services. Purchasers of our online
subscription-based Services may need to provide credit card or other payment
information. We will use that information solely for the purpose of fulfilling
the purchase request. We will store credit card or other payment information in
an encrypted form and will not sell, share, or use it again without prior
consent. (The only exceptions are described in the sections below on
“Disclosures to Service Providers,” “Disclosures for Legal Reasons,” and
“Disclosures to a Buyer of the Company”).

Using Chorus. 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. We may also use such information as described in the
“Customer Information” section above. We may collect biometric information of
Chorus customers when such customers have provided us with their consent to do
so. The collection and use of such biometric information are governed by
our Biometric Privacy Notice in addition to this Policy. 

Using our mobile applications. We collect certain information including your
device type, operating system, location, platform used, device ID, and the date
of last use, among other non-personally identifiable information, through the
downloading and use of our mobile applications. We may also collect other
information such as the user’s name, email, company name, and information about
the user’s account with us. We may also collect calendar information such as
calendar meetings, including meeting participants, meeting description, subject,
and date and time of the meeting if a user enables our calendar integration.
This information is collected to provide you with certain app features, such as
meeting briefs with meeting and contact details within the app. 

Using 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 may be difficult
to attribute to one specific source, and we will not disclose the source of
particular data, if available, except as required by law. In the event that any
customer wishes to opt out of ZoomInfo’s use of such information, they may do so
by visiting the ‘Data Sharing’ settings page within the ZoomInfo Admin Portal
and adjusting the appropriate controls.

Connecting the Services to an email account or calendar. In order to provide
certain Services, ZoomInfo may require access to the user’s 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. ZoomInfo’s access to and use of
information received from Google Accounts will adhere to the Google API Services
User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. 

From our affiliates. ZoomInfo may obtain personal information from our
affiliates, such as our current and future parents, subsidiaries or other
companies under common control and ownership with ZoomInfo. We may use this
information to enhance the information that we already maintain and to improve
the accuracy of our records, in addition to other purposes described in this
Policy.

From third parties. ZoomInfo may obtain personal information from third-party
sources such as our service providers and strategic partners. We may use this
information to enhance the information that we already maintain and to improve
the accuracy of our records, in addition to other purposes described in this
Policy. 

Creation of aggregated information. ZoomInfo may aggregate collected information
about our users in a form that does not allow users to be personally identified
for the purpose of understanding our customer base and enhancing the Site and
the Services that we and our strategic partners and customers can provide you. 

Creation of information from inferences. We may use personal information we
already have in order to draw inferences or to produce scores or ratings such as
the “Likely to Listen” score. We use scoring models and algorithms that evaluate
selected data points to produce a score predicting the likeliness of a candidate
to respond to a recruiter’s outreach efforts. We do not make any decisions about
individuals, and we do not tell our customers whether to reach out to a
particular candidate or not. 

Automated information collection. We also collect information using cookies and
similar technologies, as described below under the “Cookies and Similar
Technologies” section.

that we otherwise collect as described in this Policy available to users of the
Site, to our strategic partners, and to our customers. Information provided,
including Business Information, in creating or updating a Professional Profile,
will be included in the Directory and thus can be viewed by third parties. 

Disclosures via Public Directory. ZoomInfo makes certain limited Business
Information from its Professional Profiles publicly available in our Public
Directory on our Site. The categories of Business Information that may be made

Disclosures to Service Providers. ZoomInfo may from time to time disclose
Business Information or other collected information to service providers, solely
for providing functions related to our operation of the Site and provision of
the Services and for no other purpose. For example:

 * ZoomInfo uses service providers to process credit card payments on our Site.
   Information such as name, billing address, phone number, email address, and
   credit card information will be submitted to service providers for
   verification and to manage any recurring payments.
 * ZoomInfo uses software hosted by a service provider to provide us with

   visit our Site, that service provider may set cookies on our behalf and may
   receive information about such individuals’ browsing activity on our Site.

Disclosures to Integration Partners. In using ZoomInfo’s Integrations, such as
ZoomInfo’s SFNA and web browser extensions, Business Information from ZoomInfo
may be disclosed to a customer’s CRM, MAT, or sales enablement software as
requested or directed by our customers. 

Disclosures for Legal Reasons. We may disclose collected information, including
Business Information, to a third party if we believe in good faith that such
disclosure is necessary or desirable: (i) to comply with lawful requests,
subpoenas, search warrants, or orders by public authorities, including to meet
national security or law enforcement requirements; (ii) to address a violation
of the law; (iii) to protect the rights, property, or safety of ZoomInfo, its
users, or the public; (iv) to allow ZoomInfo to exercise its legal rights or
respond to a legal claim; or (v) to respond to data subject requests for access
to data to the extent necessary to comply with applicable laws.

transferred assets. 

Other Disclosures

Information about individuals who register for a ZoomInfo event with a
third-party speaker will generally be shared with the speaker and any
third-party sponsors or partners of the event.

We post customer testimonials on our Site which may contain the customer’s name.
We obtain consent from the customer prior to posting any testimonial. If a
customer wishes to update or delete their testimonial, they can contact us
at privacy@zoominfo.com.

Our Site offers publicly accessible blogs or community forums. Any content
provided in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access
them. Individuals can request the removal of their personal information from our
blog or community forum by contacting us at privacy@zoominfo.com. In some cases,
we may not be able to remove the personal information, in which case we will let
the requestor know that we are unable to do so and why.


V. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Most websites, including our Site, use a feature of browsers to set a small text
file called a “cookie” on a computer. The site placing the cookie on a computer
can then recognize the computer when the user of the computer revisits the site
to allow auto login and track how the user is using the site.

When individuals visit our Site, our servers and/or those of our service
providers automatically record certain information that the web browser sends,
such as web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, referring/exit
pages and URLs, page loads and clicks, domain names, landing pages, pages
viewed, time and date of use, and other information. We may link this
information to information that individuals submit while on our Site, which does
allow such individuals to be personally identified.

Individuals are free to decline cookies and can configure their browser to
accept all cookies, reject all cookies, erase cookies, or notify the user when a
cookie is set. Electing to reject or disable cookies may substantially limit an
individual’s ability to use our Site.

ZoomInfo may also adopt other technologies that serve similar functions as
cookies. 

A. Third Party Cookies

The use of cookies and similar technologies by our partners, affiliates,
tracking utility company, and service providers is not covered by this Policy.
We do not have access to or control over these cookies. Our partners,

To disable or reject third-party cookies generally, please refer to the
third-party’s relevant website or configure your browser settings appropriately.
Individuals can also reject third-party analytics cookies by clicking the
“Close” button on the cookie banner when visiting our Site. 

B. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc., on
our Site. Google Analytics uses cookies or other tracking technologies to help
us analyze how users interact with and use the Site, compile reports on the
Site’s activity, and provide other services related to Site activity and usage.
The technologies used by Google may collect information such as IP address, time
of visit, whether a visitor is a return visitor, and any referring website. The

This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our customer communications and
marketing campaigns.

C. How To Opt-Out of Certain Uses of Information

ZoomInfo gives individuals the opportunity to “opt out” of having their
information used for certain purposes.

Individuals who no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional
communications may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions
included in each newsletter or communication or by visiting /unsubscribe. After
we receive a request, we will send the requestor an email message to confirm
that the individual has been unsubscribed.

Users who have subscribed to Community Edition and installed the Software or
otherwise provided ZoomInfo with access to their email account to share certain
Business Information as described in this Policy may opt out of any further
sharing of such information by uninstalling the Software, as described
on /cefaq or by otherwise disabling ZoomInfo’s access to the user’s email
account through their email account settings. If individuals uninstall the
Software or otherwise disable ZoomInfo’s access to their email account, their
subscription to Community Edition will immediately expire and ZoomInfo will no
longer collect Business Information from them through this method.


VII. HOW DO WE KEEP INFORMATION SECURE?

Information security is important to us. 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 information, we cannot guarantee its
absolute security.


VIII. DATA RETENTION

We will retain personal information for a period of time consistent with the
original purpose(s) for which we collected it, as described in this Privacy
Policy, including, as applicable, (i) for as long as we have an ongoing
relationship with the individual to whom the information pertains; (ii) as long
as needed to provide users, our customers, or our partners the Services; (iii)
as necessary to comply with our legal obligation(s); (iv) as necessary to
resolve disputes or to protect ourselves from potential future disputes; or (v)
as necessary to enforce our agreements. Retention periods will be determined
taking into account the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal
information and the purpose(s) for which it was collected. After the retention
period ends, we will delete the personal information. Where we are unable to do
so, we will ensure that appropriate measures are put in place to prevent any
further use of such information.


IX. LINKS TO OTHER SITES

This Site contains links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by
ZoomInfo. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.
When individuals leave our Site, we encourage them to be aware and to read the
privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally
identifiable information. This Policy applies only to information collected by
this Site or in the method(s) otherwise discussed herein.


X. SOCIAL MEDIA WIDGETS

Our Site includes social media features, such as the Facebook “Like” button and
“Widgets,” such as the “Share” button or interactive mini-programs that run on

XI. INFORMATION FOR USERS IN EUROPE AND ELSEWHERE OUTSIDE THE U.S.

Individuals who use our Site outside of the United States should understand that

A. Users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland 

The following information applies to residents of the EEA, the UK, or
Switzerland.

ZoomInfo endeavors to comply with the provisions of the General Data Protection
Regulation (“GDPR”) as to any information in its possession regarding EEA-, UK-,
and Switzerland-based persons (“data subjects”). As such, ZoomInfo only
processes personal information on data subjects where it has a lawful basis to
do so, which may include the consent of the person (especially in the case of
website visitors who provide their information), performance of a contract,
compliance with a legal obligation, or the legitimate interest of ZoomInfo or a
third party. ZoomInfo provides notice to all data subjects as required by GDPR
Article 13 or 14, as appropriate, and honors the rights of data subjects
provided in Articles 12-23, including the right to be forgotten. For any opt-out
requests or other inquiries related to privacy, please visit our privacy center
at /about-zoominfo/privacy-center or email privacy@zoominfo.com.

Purposes of processing and legal basis for processing: As explained above, we
process personal information in various ways depending upon data subjects’ use
of our Sites. We process personal information on the following legal bases:

 1. consent;
 2. as necessary to perform our agreement to provide Services or other
    applicable agreements;
 3. as necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject;
    or
 4. as necessary for the legitimate interests of ZoomInfo and ZoomInfo’s
    customers and partners to engage in direct marketing, sales, and recruiting
    activities, and ZoomInfo’s legitimate interests in organizing and making
    available Professional and Business Profiles, given the limited impact that
    use of this Business Information and similar information presents to an
    individual’s private life

ZoomInfo has put in place safeguards to protect personal privacy and individual
choice, including disclosures of its data processing activities, the use of
consent or opt-outs wherever possible, and the implementation of a privacy
center: www.zoominfo.com/privacy-center.

Right to lodge a complaint: Users that reside in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland
have the right to lodge a complaint about our data collection and processing
actions with the supervisory authority concerned. Contact details for data
protection authorities are available here.

Transfers: Personal information we collect may be transferred to, and stored and
processed in, the United States or any other country in which we or our
affiliates or subcontractors maintain facilities. Per the applicable
requirements of the GDPR, we will ensure that transfers of personal information
to a third country or an international organization are subject to appropriate
safeguards as described in Article 46 of the GDPR, such as the UK or EU Standard
Contractual Clauses, as applicable. 

Individual Rights: Individuals who are a resident of the EEA, the UK, or
Switzerland are entitled to the following rights under the GDPR. Please note: In
order to verify an individual’s identity, we may require them to provide us with
personal information prior to accessing any records containing information about
them.

 * The right to access, correction, and restriction of processing. Individuals
   have the right to request access to, and a copy of, their personal
   information at no charge, as well as certain information about our processing
   activities with respect to their data. Individuals have the right to request
   correction or completion of their personal information if it is inaccurate or
   incomplete. Individuals have the right to restrict our processing if they
   contest the accuracy of the data we hold about them, for as long as it takes
   to verify its accuracy.
 * The right to data portability. Individuals have the right to ask for a copy
   of their data in a machine-readable format. Individuals can also request that
   we transmit their data to another entity where technically feasible. 
 * The right to request data erasure. Individuals have the right to have their
   data erased from our Site if the data is no longer necessary for the purpose
   for which it was collected, they withdraw consent and no other legal basis
   for processing exists, or their fundamental rights to data privacy and
   protection outweigh our legitimate interest in continuing the processing.
 * The right to object to our processing. Individuals have the right to object
   to our processing if we are processing data based on legitimate interests or
   the performance of a task in the public interest as an exercise of official
   authority (including profiling); using data for direct marketing (including
   profiling); or processing data for purposes of scientific or historical
   research and statistics.

When ZoomInfo is a Controller. ZoomInfo acts as a data controller when we
collect and use information about data subjects who are visitors to our Site, as
well as when we collect and use information about data subjects for purposes of
creating and maintaining our Professional Profiles and providing the Services.
ZoomInfo’s Data Protection Officer can be contacted by email
at privacy@zoominfo.com. 

When ZoomInfo is a Processor. When our customers use our Services, they are
acting as the data controller and are responsible for ensuring that personal
information collected about data subjects is being processed lawfully. In those
circumstances, we are acting as the data processor, and receive personal
information as agents of our customers merely for processing as instructed by
our customers. Our customers are solely responsible for determining whether and
how they wish to use our Services, and for ensuring that all third-party
individuals that are a visitor to or user of a website, application, or service
on which a customer uses our Services have been provided with adequate notice
regarding the processing of their personal information, have given informed
consent where such consent is necessary or advised, and that all legal
requirements applicable to the collection, use, or other processing of personal
information through our Services have been met by such customers. Our customers
are also responsible for handling data subject rights requests under applicable
law, by their users and other individuals whose data they process through the
Services. ZoomInfo’s obligations with respect to personal information for which
we are solely a data processor are defined in our agreements with our customers
and are not covered by this Policy. In certain circumstances, ZoomInfo may act
as an independent controller of personal information in connection with its
provision of the Services to customers, such as when customers agree to
contribute data to our database. 

B. Privacy Shield Frameworks

While ZoomInfo continues to be certified by and adhere to the principles of the
Privacy Shield Frameworks, in light of the Court of Justice of the European
Union decision regarding the legal effect of the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework,
ZoomInfo does not rely upon the Frameworks to ensure the lawful transfer of data
from EEA to non-EEA countries.

ZoomInfo complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and Swiss-U.S. Privacy
Shield Framework as set forth by the US Department of Commerce regarding the
collection, use, and retention of personal information transferred from the EU
and Switzerland to the United States. ZoomInfo has certified to the Department
of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles. If there is any
conflict between the policies in this Policy and the Privacy Shield Principles,
the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Privacy
Shield program, any rights to binding arbitration before a Privacy Shield Panel,
and to view our certification page, please visit  https://www.privacyshield.gov.

For information received under the Privacy Shield, ZoomInfo will require third
parties to whom we disclose personal information to safeguard that personal
information consistent with this Policy by contract, obligating those third
parties to provide at least the same level of protection as is required by the
Privacy Shield Principles. EU and Swiss citizens may choose to opt-out of such
disclosures. ZoomInfo may have liability to individuals in case of failure to
comply with the law or this Policy in handling onward transfer of such
individuals’ information to third parties.

In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, ZoomInfo commits to resolve
complaints about privacy and its collection or use of your personal information.
European Union or Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding this
Policy should first contact ZoomInfo at privacy@zoominfo.com. European Union and
Swiss individuals have the right to access their personal information.

ZoomInfo further has committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the
Privacy Shield Principles to JAMS (Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services),
an independent alternative dispute resolution provider located in the United
States and recognized for this purpose by the US Department of Commerce. If you
do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is
not satisfactorily addressed, please
visit https://www.jamsadr.com/eu-us-privacy-shield for more information, and to
file a complaint.

The Federal Trade Commission has enforcement authority regarding ZoomInfo’s
compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles.
