Previous version of this policy

Zendesk, Inc. (“Zendesk”) uses certain sub-processors (including members of the Zendesk Group and third parties, as listed below) and content delivery networks to assist it in providing the Zendesk Services as described in the Master Subscription Agreement (“MSA”). Defined terms used herein shall have the same meaning as defined in the MSA.

What is a Sub-processor

A sub-processor is a third party data processor engaged by Zendesk, including entities from within the Zendesk Group, who has or potentially will have access to or process Service Data (which may contain Personal Data). Zendesk engages different types of sub-processors to perform various functions as explained in the tables below.

Due Diligence

Zendesk undertakes to use a commercially reasonable selection process by which it evaluates the security, privacy and confidentiality practices of proposed sub-processors that will or may have access to or otherwise process Service Data.

Contractual Safeguards

Zendesk generally requires its sub-processors to satisfy equivalent obligations as those required from Zendesk (as a Data Processor) as set forth in Zendesk’s Data Processing Agreement (“DPA”), including but not limited to the requirements to:

• Process Personal Data in accordance with data controller’s (i.e. Subscriber’s) documented instructions (as communicated in writing to the relevant sub-processor by Zendesk);
• In connection with their sub-processing activities, use only personnel who are reliable and subject to a contractually binding obligation to observe data privacy and security, to the extent applicable, pursuant to applicable data protection laws;
• Provide regular training in security and data protection to personnel to whom they grant access to Personal Data;
• Implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures (including measures consistent with those to which Zendesk is contractually committed to adhere to insofar as they are equally relevant to the sub-processor’s processing of Personal Data on Zendesk’s behalf) and provide an annual certification that evidences compliance with this obligation. In the absence of such certification Zendesk reserves the right to audit the sub-processor;
• Promptly inform Zendesk about any actual or potential security breach; and
• Cooperate with Zendesk in order to deal with requests from data controllers, data subjects or data protection authorities, as applicable.

Third-party service providers which incidentally have access to Your Service Data in Innovation Services and are used to provide specific features or components of the product outside of the core hosting of Service Data (“Innovation Service Specific sub-processors”) are regularly reviewed by Zendesk to ensure they work towards implementing each of the standards described in this Section. However, Innovation Service Specific sub-processors may not currently meet all of the measures identified above. 

This policy does not give Subscribers any additional rights or remedies and should not be construed as a binding agreement. The information herein is only provided to illustrate Zendesk’s engagement process for sub-processors as well as to provide the actual list of third party sub-processors and content delivery networks used by Zendesk as of the date of this policy (which Zendesk may use in the delivery and support of its Services).

If you are a Zendesk Subscriber and wish to enter into our DPA, please email us at [e-mail].

Process to Engage New Sub-processors:

For all Subscribers who have executed Zendesk’s standard DPA, Zendesk will provide notice via this policy of updates to the list of sub-processors that are utilized or which Zendesk proposes to utilize to deliver its Services. Zendesk undertakes to keep this list updated regularly to enable its Subscribers to stay informed of the scope of sub-processing associated with the Zendesk Services. Zendesk Subscribers may subscribe to receive notifications of updates to this policy by clicking “Follow updates” at the top of this policy.

Pursuant to the DPA, a Subscriber may object in writing to the processing of its Personal Data by a new sub-processor within thirty (30) days following the update of this policy and such objection shall describe Subscriber's legitimate reason(s) for objection. If Subscriber does not object during such time period the new sub-processor(s) shall be deemed accepted.

If a Subscriber objects to the use of a new sub-processor pursuant to the process provided under the DPA, Zendesk shall have the right to cure the objection through one of the following options (to be selected at Zendesk’s sole discretion):

(a) Zendesk will cease to use the new sub-processor with regard to Personal Data;

(b) Zendesk will take the corrective steps requested by Subscriber in its objection (which steps will be deemed to resolve Subscriber’s objection) and proceed to use the sub-processor to process Personal Data; or

(c) Zendesk may cease to provide or Subscriber may agree not to use (temporarily or permanently) the particular aspect of a Zendesk Service that would involve use of the sub-processor to process Personal Data.

Termination rights, as applicable and agreed, are set forth exclusively in the DPA.
