- to enable third parties to provide services on our behalf;
- to comply with applicable law, legal obligations and valid legal processes such as search warrants, subpoenas, or court orders;
- as necessary to establish, exercise or defend against potential, threatened or actual litigation;
- when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, or investigate or prevent fraud or other illegal activity;
- in connection with a merger, sale or asset transfer; and
- for additional purposes with your consent, where consent is required by law.
We will not sell your personal information or share it with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising. When we share your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that we only share the minimum personal information necessary for the specific purpose and circumstance.
Cookie Notice
Scope
We use information-gathering tools, such as cookies and web beacons, to collect information about you as you navigate our Forum. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering the Forum, and tracking users’ movements around the Forum.
Cookies
When you use our Forum, it asks your browser to store small text files called “cookies” on your device. Cookies are used to collect information about you, your preferences, or your device.
We only use Essential cookies. Essential cookies are cookies that are required for the Forum to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer, and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed – for details, see aboutcookies.org. If you do this, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit the Forum and some services and functionalities may not work. Please note that your choices are specific to our Forum and to the device and browser you are using.
Web Beacons and Similar Technologies
We use web beacons and similar technologies to understand how you use our Forum. Web beacons are clear electronic images that help us understand what content you have accessed. Web beacons do not place information on your device, but they may work in conjunction with cookies to monitor Forum activity. We use web beacons to operate and improve our Forum and communications.
Security
We maintain a privacy and security program with technical, physical and organizational safeguards designed to protect against the wrongful access, use or disclosure of personal information stored in our Forum, and to provide a level of security which we believe is appropriate to the risk our processing of your personal information poses to your privacy. We regularly review and modify our security measures to reflect changing technology, laws and regulations, risk, industry and security practices and other business needs.
Children’s Privacy
Our Forum is not designed for or marketed to children, and we do not knowingly collect, maintain or use personal information from children under 18 years of age. If you believe we may have mistakenly collected the personal information of a minor without appropriate consent, please contact us at alliances@veeva.com and we will investigate and promptly address the issue.
Your Controls
We offer you certain controls over your information. These controls may include the right to access, delete, correct, transfer and opt-out or object to the processing of your information. If you choose to exercise your rights, we will respond to your request in accordance with applicable laws, which may vary depending on where you live.
You can access, correct and otherwise manage your personal information that is maintained within your Forum account by using the features available when you log in to your account.
If you wish to exercise your privacy rights, email alliances@veeva.com, or call us, (free of charge) at 1 (877) 807-3230. In order to process your request, we require certain information about you. We will only use this information to verify your identity and facilitate the processing of your request. We may require you to provide proof of your identity. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. Authorized agents can submit requests to alliances@veeva.com. Authorized agents must provide appropriate documentation of their authorization (e.g., power of attorney).
There may be times when we are unable to fulfill your request; in those cases, we will let you know why we are unable to fulfill your request. If we deny or are otherwise unable to fulfill your request, you may have the right to appeal. To submit an appeal, contact us at alliances@veeva.com.
Transfer of Personal Information Between Countries
We are a global company. As a global company, we may transfer your personal information to various locations around the world for the purposes described in this privacy notice. We apply the protections and limitations described in this privacy notice regardless of where we process your personal information.
We also comply with various legal frameworks that enable the cross-border transfer of personal information. Where required, we rely on transfer mechanisms that lawfully support data transfer to locations that are not considered “adequate” by the appropriate data protection authority, which may include standard contractual clauses, obtaining your consent or another recognized transfer mechanism.
Data Privacy Framework
Veeva Systems Inc. complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF (UK Extension), and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce. We have certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that we adhere to the (i) EU-U.S. DPF Principles with regard to the processing of personal information received from the European Union in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension, and (ii) Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles with regard to the processing of personal information received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. If there is any conflict between the terms in this privacy notice and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern. To learn more about the DPF program and to view our certification visit the Data Privacy Framework Program website.
The DPF applies to European, Swiss and UK individuals whose personal information is transferred to the United States. In compliance with the DPF, we allow these individuals the opportunity to choose (through an opt-out mechanism) whether their personal information is to be disclosed to a third party or used for a purpose that is materially different from the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized. The Your Controls section provides more information about these rights and the mechanisms we provide to exercise them. If we collect sensitive personal information on these individuals, we will obtain explicit consent before disclosing sensitive personal information to a third party or using it for a purpose that is materially different from the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized.
If you have questions or concerns regarding our handling of your personal information under the DPF or about our privacy program generally, please contact us at privacy@veeva.com. 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, TrustArc, (free of charge) at feedback-form.trustarc.com/watchdog/request. If neither process resolves your question or concern, you may be able to pursue binding arbitration; visit the Data Privacy Framework Program website for more information about how to submit a complaint.
The Federal Trade Commission has jurisdiction over our compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF. We remain responsible for personal information that we transfer to third parties for processing on our behalf. We may be required to disclose personal information that we handle under the DPF in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, as described in more detail by our Government Access Request Policy.

We will retain your information until it is no longer necessary to provide the Forum, until you request its deletion as described in the section above entitled “Your Controls”, or as otherwise required by law.
