Websites. When you visit our websites, we collect your information directly from you and indirectly from you by observing your actions on our website or from your devices. This includes collecting information using analytic tools and other tracking technologies. Please see our Cookie Notice for more information.

Events and Marketing. When you register to attend a Veeva-sponsored event or subscribe to our publications and newsletters, we collect your information from you when you register, as directed by you during the registration process, as you engage with us and as you participate in activities and forums we provide.

Representatives of Customers, Suppliers and Prospective Customers and Suppliers. If you are a representative of a Veeva customer, supplier or prospective customer or supplier, we collect your information directly from you, your employer, our customers and suppliers and from publicly available websites such as LinkedIn.

As part of our data products, we collect personal information about healthcare providers and other industry professionals and stakeholders from publicly available sources including government and public records, association websites, institutional websites (hospitals, universities, medical facilities), medical databases and registries, and other online professional profiles and web sources related to your professional activity. We may also collect personal information directly from you, your employer and affiliates and our customers.

As part of our healthcare marketing and analytic products, we don’t directly collect your personal information. We source demographic and consumer information from third-party consumer data partners who maintain databases containing information on adult consumers in the United States.


Websites. When you visit our websites, we collect your information to help us understand how you interact with us, to provide you with relevant information and services, and to help us to ensure our websites are working as designed.

Representatives of Customers, Suppliers and Prospective Customers and Suppliers. If you are a representative of a Veeva customer, supplier or prospective customer or supplier, we collect information about you to allow us to provide you with information about us, the products, services and events we offer, and how we may work together.

Our Products. As part of our data products, we collect personal information about healthcare organizations, healthcare providers, and other industry professionals and stakeholders for the purpose of enabling our customers to provide up-to-date scientific and medical information or promotional materials to relevant organizations and individuals and to facilitate our customers’ understanding of and improving their communication with such organizations and individuals.

As part of our healthcare marketing and analytic products, we collect personal information to help health brands communicate more effectively with consumers and to measure the impact of healthcare marketing. Relevant health communications enable consumers to make more informed choices about their health care.

The most effective way to deliver relevant communications to the right consumers starts with a deep understanding of the intended audience. We do this by using data and analytics to understand the demographic and consumer characteristics – e.g., age, gender, lifestyle, geography, etc. – most relevant to certain health conditions. More specifically, we use personal information to create “Audience Segments” – groupings of individuals based on non-medical demographic characteristics. Our customers use these Audience Segments to deliver tailored advertising to relevant consumers. You can find out more about our Audience Segments here. While some of our Audience Segments target health and health-related conditions, these segments are based on demographic characteristics alone and do not contain identifiable consumer health information or purport to reveal or infer that any given individual has a specific medical condition or diagnosis.

To make our Audience Segments available for tailored advertising in digital environments, we may ask our partners to identify devices or browsers of users with specific demographic and consumer attributes, and the users of these identified devices or browsers may receive tailored advertising in their web browsers, within mobile applications, and on connected TVs. Tailored advertising does not include using your interactions with us or information that you provide to us to select advertisements to show you.

To help our customers measure the impact of their marketing campaigns, we connect pseudonymized media exposure data (information that we are unable link back to you) with health information that has been de-identified in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act’s (HIPAA’s) de-identification standards. We report only aggregated insights to our customers; we never report person- or device-level information.

Automated Processing. We do not make decisions about you which have legal or similarly significant effects on you, based solely on the automated processing, including profiling, of your data.


We may share personal information internally and with our subsidiaries and third parties for the following purposes:

  • to support the purposes described in the section above entitled “Why We Collect Information and How We Use It”;
  • 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.

When we share your personal information, we will ensure it is used in a manner consistent with this privacy notice and we will take reasonable steps to ensure that we only share the minimum personal information necessary for the specific purpose and circumstance.

We may provide bulletin boards, blogs, or chat rooms on our websites. Any personal information you choose to submit in such a forum may be read, collected, or used by others who visit these forums and may be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these forums.

We may post lists of customers and testimonials on our websites that contain information such as customer names and titles. We obtain the consent of each customer prior to posting any information on such a list or posting testimonials. To request removal of your personal information from our blog or forum or to have your testimonials removed, contact us at privacy@veeva.com.

Our Products.

As part of our data products, we also share personal information with pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies (the life sciences industry) to allow those companies to provide you with scientific information about their products and services and as required by applicable law.

As part of our healthcare marketing and analytic products, we also share personal information with our customers in the life sciences industry (pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies), data analytics providers, consumer data resellers and advertising networks in order to provide our products to our customers. We do not “sell” or “share” sensitive personal information or process sensitive personal information for targeted advertising as such terms are defined under applicable data protection laws.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

Some states in the U.S. provide residents with the right to opt out of the sale, sharing, or use of their personal information for targeted advertising. We process your personal information for various purposes, some of which may be deemed by the laws in these states as a “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information or as “targeted advertising.” Visit our Do Not Sell or Share page for more information about our practices and how you can exercise your rights.

This section describes the types of Web Site Navigational Information that may be collected on the Company’s Web sites and how this information may be used.

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. Technologies such as: cookies, beacons, tags and scripts are used by Veeva Systems and some of our business partners (e.g., our tracking utility company), affiliates, or analytics or service. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies on an individual as well as aggregated basis.

We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. Cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.

Enabling these cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to work but it will provide you with a better browsing experience. You can delete or block these cookies, but if you do that some features of this site may not work as intended.

What cookies do we use?

We use the following categories on our websites and other online services:

Category 1 — Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential to enable you to browse around our websites and use their features. Without these cookies, services including user account login and access to video content cannot be provided.

Category 2 — Preference Cookies

These cookies collect information about how you use our websites and remember choices you make while browsing. This data may be used to help optimize our websites and make them easier for you to navigate.

For instance, we may store your geographic location in a cookie to ensure that we show you our website localized for your area. We may also remember preferences such as text size, fonts, and other customizable site elements. They may also be used to keep track of what featured products or videos have been viewed to avoid repetition. The information these cookies collect will not personally identify you, and they cannot track your browsing activity on non-Veeva websites.

Category 3 — Statistics Cookies

These cookies help Veeva understand how visitors interact with our websites and help us improve our overall site experience.

Veeva primarily uses Google Analytics on our website to provide statistics and reporting on our website performance. Our implementation of Google Analytics does not collect any personally identifiable data.

Veeva Network Users: The user IDs used in Google Analytics are not personally identifiable, and there are several thresholds in place to link this non-identifiable user ID to an identifiable Veeva Network user. Veeva Network users may turn off the usage of Google Analytics within the application of Veeva Network via their user profile which is described in Veeva Network Online Help

Category 4 — Marketing Cookies

These cookies are used to track visitors behavior on our site and potentially across non-Veeva websites. The intention is to display Veeva specific content and advertisements that are relevant and engaging for the individual user. The information these cookies collect will not personally identify you and is used to target content to users anonymously.

How to control cookies

You can control and/or delete cookies as you wish – for details, see aboutcookies.org. You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit a site and some services and functionalities may not work.

Web Beacons

Veeva Systems uses Web beacons alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about Customers and Visitors’ usage of the Company’s Web sites and interaction with emails from the Company. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of information on your computer, such as cookies, when you viewed a particular Web site tied to the Web beacon, and a description of a Web site tied to the Web beacon. For example, Veeva may place Web beacons in marketing emails that notify the Company when you click on a link in the email that directs you to one of the Company’s Web sites. Veeva Systems uses Web beacons to operate and improve the Company’s Web sites and email communications.

Veeva Systems may use information from Web beacons in combination with data about Veeva Customers to provide you with information about the Company and services.

Log Files

As is true of most web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data. We may combine this automatically collected log information with other information we collect about you. We do this to improve services we offer you.

Local Storage

We use Local Storage (LS) such as HTML5 to store content information and preferences. Third parties with whom we partner to provide certain features on our site or to display advertising based upon your Web browsing activity use HTML 5 to collect and store information. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing HTML5.

Do Not Track

Currently, various browsers (such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari) offer a “do not track” or “DNT” option. Veeva Systems does not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals with respect to the Company’s Web sites, in part, because no common industry standard for DNT has been adopted by industry groups, technology companies or regulators, including no consistent standard of interpreting user intent. Veeva Systems takes privacy and meaningful choice seriously and will make efforts to continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.

Behavioral Targeting / Re-Targeting

We partner with a third party to either display advertising on our website or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third party partner may use technologies such as cookies to gather information about your activities on this site and other sites in order to provide you advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you interest-based ads, you may opt-out by clicking here (or if located in the European Union click here). Please note this does not opt you out of being served ads. You will continue to receive generic ads.

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.

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 (free of charge) at feedback-form.truste.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.


Veeva’s Government Access Request Policy

This Government Access Request Policy describes how we respond to requests from governmental and other public authorities (collectively, “Government Authorities”) for access to Customer Data (as defined in our customer agreements) or other personal information (collectively, “Data”).

Validity. We do not voluntarily disclose Data to Government Authorities. We only disclose Data where there is a valid legal basis to do so (such as through a warrant, subpoena or court order). We review all requests on a case-by-case basis and in accordance with applicable law. If we determine there is a valid legal basis for the request, we comply by providing the least amount of Data necessary to respond to the request.

We never create backdoors in our products or services to allow Government Authorities to access Data.

Challenges. We challenge requests if we believe:

  • there is no valid legal basis for it,
  • the request is unlawful,
  • the request is unclear, overly broad or inappropriate, or
  • where compliance with the request would put us in potential breach of applicable laws in another country.

Notification. We notify our customers if a Government Authority requests their Data unless we are legally prohibited from doing so, in the event of an emergency (such as to prevent imminent death or serious physical harm to an individual) or in cases where we reasonably believe such notice would be counterproductive.

Transparency Report. We publish a report of requests we have received and our response to them. We update this report semi-annually.

    Type of Request Country of Origin of the Request Action Taken Year
    Subpoena US Fulfilled 2020
    Search Warrant US Fulfilled 2020

    Updated: January 25, 2024
