Privacy Policy
About This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) explains how Personal Data about you is collected, stored, used, disclosed and otherwise processed by Cloudera, Inc. (“Cloudera,” “we,” “us” or “our”). It applies to information we collect when you use our website www.cloudera.com (the “Site”) or Cloudera products and services (the “Products”) (the Site and the Products collectively, the “Services”) as well as information collected by other means, such as through your interactions with us at events or through other sales and marketing activities. As used herein, “Personal Data” is information that identifies an individual or that is associated with the identity of an individual.
Cloudera is the data controller of any information collected on or through the Site. You can find our contact details in the section “How to Contact Us” below. We are also the data controller of Personal Data associated with our current, past, and prospective business clients’ interactions with us and our Products (each such business client, a “Client”).
We are a data processor, however, with regard to any Personal Data that our Clients submit or otherwise make available to Cloudera in connection with their use of our Products. We will only use such Personal Data in accordance with our applicable agreements with our Clients. Our Clients’ privacy policies and practices apply to their own use of data for which they are the data controllers. Cloudera is not responsible for such policies or practices of our Clients, which may differ from those explained in this Privacy Policy. To the extent that we process any Personal Data as a data processor on behalf of a Client that is the data controller, pursuant to an agreement between Cloudera and such Client, we offer our Client the terms of the Data Protection Addendum located at
https://www.cloudera.com/content/dam/www/legal/Cloudera-GDPR-DPA-Customer-20180418.pdf. The Client may complete, sign and return the Data Protection Addendum to privacy@cloudera.com.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our business and practices. If we make material changes, we will notify you or our Client by revising the date at the top of the policy, and in some cases, including as required by law, we may provide you with more prominent notice (such as adding a statement to our homepage or sending you an email notification). We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy whenever you access the Services to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy.

Information We Collect When You Use Our Services
When you access or use our Services, we automatically collect information about you, including the following:

You can change your browser settings in order to enable or disable cookies. We do not currently respond to browser do-not-track signals.
Third-party Websites and Framing of Partner Content
Our Site may link to third-party websites over whose privacy practices we have no control. Also, some of our pages utilize framing techniques to serve content from our partners while preserving the look and feel of our Site. In such case, please be aware that you are providing your Personal Data to these third parties and not to Cloudera.
We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policies of these third parties before submitting your Personal Data to them. If you receive marketing communications from these third parties and wish to stop receiving marketing messages from them, please contact these third parties directly.
More About the Information We Collect
Blogs and Community Forums
Our Site offers publicly accessible blogs and community forums. You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them.

Social Media Widgets
Our Site includes social media features, such as the Facebook button or interactive mini-programs that run on our Site. These features may collect your Internet protocol address and information on which page you are visiting on our Site, and they may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Site. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.
Single Sign-On
You may apply for a job opening using sign-in services such as LinkedIn or an Open ID provider. These services will authenticate your identity, provide you the option to share certain Personal Data (such as your name and email address) with us, and pre-populate our application form.

This information may include your name, company, email address, postal address, telephone number and other contact or identifying information.
With written consent, we may conduct background checks on our potential employees.

We don’t otherwise append Personal Data on results of the background check to an application.
Product Diagnostic and Telemetry Data
When our Clients use our Products, we may collect certain usage data, including configuration files, metrics count, software versions, log files and other information regarding our Clients’ computing environments and use of the Products.

For purposes of clarity, however, the diagnostic functionality described in the preceding sentence does not include metering capabilities within Cloudera online Services which Cloudera uses to determine Customer’s usage for billing purposes. Customer may not disable, tamper with or otherwise alter any such metering capabilities within such Services. We may combine such data with other information we’ve collected, including information from public sources or third parties or information you provide to us when you download our Products, request information or otherwise communicate with us, including the name of your organization or company.

Cloudera Data Policy
This Data Policy (the “Policy”) describes Cloudera’s policy for handling, storing, and otherwise treating certain types of data of Cloudera’s customers (each, a “Customer”), including data associated with individual users and employees of Customer organizations, in each case pursuant to a Customer Agreement (as defined below). “Cloudera” means Cloudera, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates.
Additional policies that apply to specific Cloudera Products and Services can be found at the end of this Policy, in the section entitled “Service-Specific Terms.”
OVERVIEW
Cloudera collects information that a Customer or other data sources send to Cloudera as part of such Customer’s use of Cloudera Products and Services. This data is addressed in three categories, “Transaction Data”, “Account Data” and “Personal Data”, each as defined below.
TRANSACTION DATA AND ACCOUNT DATA
Security
Cloudera understands the sensitive nature of the data that Customer or Customer’s organization may provide while using Cloudera Products and Services. Cloudera will maintain commercially reasonable administrative, physical and technical safeguards designed for the protection, confidentiality and integrity of Customer’s Transaction Data and Account Data.
Data Use by Cloudera
Access. Cloudera places strict controls over its employees’ access to Customer’s Transaction Data and Account Data that resides in the Cloudera Products and Services, and is committed to ensuring that Customer’s Transaction Data and Account Data is not used by anyone who should not have access to it. The operation of the Cloudera Products and Services requires that some employees have access to Customer systems which store and process Customer’s Transaction Data and Account Data. For example, in order to diagnose a problem Customer is having with Cloudera Products and Services, the Cloudera support team may need to access Customer’s Transaction Data. These employees are prohibited from using these permissions to view Customer’s Transaction Data unless it is necessary to do so.
Ownership. As between Cloudera and Customer, Customer or its licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to the Transaction Data and Account Data. Cloudera obtains no ownership rights under this Agreement from Customer or its licensors to any Transaction Data or Account Data.
Use of Transaction Data. Cloudera will treat Transaction Data as confidential and will use it only to: (i) facilitate operation of the Cloudera Products and Services; (ii) enhance the use of the Cloudera Products and Services and its related web pages; (iii) perform internal tracking to improve Cloudera Products and Services; (iv) analyze the extent to which Customers use Cloudera Products and Services; (v) enable Cloudera to contact its Customers; (vi) process, bill and invoice Customer’s transactions for Cloudera Products and Services usage; (vii) make backups in order to prevent data loss; and (viii) comply with the law or a binding order of a governmental body. This permission includes allowing us to use third-party service providers in the operation and administration of Cloudera Products and Services and the rights granted to us are extended to these third parties to the degree necessary in order for Cloudera Products and Services to be provided. The Privacy Policy does not apply to Transaction Data.
Use of Account Data. Cloudera will only use Account Data in accordance with the Privacy Policy, and Customer consents to such usage.
Feedback. If any Customer users provide Cloudera with any feedback, support tickets, reported defects, usability enhancements, feature requests or suggestions regarding Cloudera Products and Services, Customer grants Cloudera an unlimited, irrevocable, perpetual, free license to use any such feedback or suggestions for any purpose without any obligation to Customer.
Retention of Transaction Data and Account Data
Data collected by Cloudera as part of diagnostic bundles will be retained for a period of 12 months. All other Transaction Data and Account Data may be retained no longer than as permitted by governing law, but in no event longer than for the life of the related Cloudera product + 10 years.
Incident Management and Response
In the event of a security breach involving Cloudera Products and Services, Cloudera will promptly notify each affected Customer of any unauthorized access to any of such Customer’s Transaction Data or Account Data that was stored in Cloudera Products and Services. Cloudera has internal incident management procedures in place to handle such an event.
Product Security Practices
New features, functionality, and design changes go through a security review process facilitated by Cloudera’s security team. The security team works closely with development teams to resolve any additional security concerns that may arise during development.
PERSONAL DATA
Cloudera’s current Privacy Policy is incorporated into this document and includes important terms regarding Cloudera’s handling of Personal Data. The sections above relating to Incident Management and Response and Product Security Practices also apply to Personal Data.
CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES
Customer Account and Account Data
To access certain Cloudera Online Services, Customer may be asked to create a Cloudera account associated with a valid e-mail address (a “Customer Account”). Customer may only create one account per email address. Customer is responsible for: (i) maintaining the confidentiality of the Account Data, (ii) monitoring and controlling which end users have access to the Customer Account; and (iii) all activities that occur under the Customer Account, regardless of whether the activities are undertaken by Customer, Customer’s employees or a third party (including Customer’s contractors or agents). Except to the extent caused by Cloudera’s breach of this Data Policy, Cloudera and its Affiliates are not responsible for unauthorized access to the Customer Account. Customer will contact Cloudera immediately if Customer believes an unauthorized third party may be using the Customer Account or if Customer’s Account Information is lost or stolen.
Acceptable Use
Customer must not: (i) use, or encourage, promote, facilitate or instruct others to use, Cloudera Products and Services for any illegal, harmful or offensive use, or to transmit, store, display, distribute or otherwise make available content that is illegal, harmful, or offensive; (ii) use Cloudera Products and Services to violate the security or integrity of any network, computer or communications system, software application, or network or computing device; (iii) make network connections to any users, hosts, or networks unless Customer has permission to communicate with them; (iv) use Cloudera Products and Services to transmit spam, bulk or unsolicited communications; or (v) use Cloudera Products and Services to collect and store personally identifiable information about any person unless specifically authorized by such person.

- compliance with the Acceptable Use provisions herein;
- compliance with all applicable laws;
- any claims relating to Transaction Data, Account Data and Personal Data;
anonymizing data to the extent Customer deems it reasonable or prudent to do so; and - properly handling and processing notices sent to Customer (or any of its affiliates) by any person claiming Customer’s data violates such person’s rights, including notices pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Customer agrees that its Transactional Data, Account Data and Personal Data will not include information regulated under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (U.S. government regulations addressing defense-related articles and services).
Customer agrees not to upload, post or otherwise transmit to Cloudera any Transaction Data that: (a) is inaccurate, harmful, obscene, pornographic, defamatory, racist, violent, offensive, harassing, or otherwise objectionable; (b) includes unauthorized disclosure of personally identifiable information or other confidential information; (c) violates or infringes any third party intellectual property rights; or (d) contains software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment. Cloudera reserves the right to edit or remove Transaction Data that violates this Policy.
By providing Transaction Data, Customer represents and warrants to Cloudera that Customer owns or otherwise possesses all intellectual property rights and other rights necessary to provide such Transaction Data and to permit others to make use of such Transaction Data.
Security and Backup
Customer is responsible for taking its own steps to maintain appropriate security, protection and backup of Transactional Data, Account Data and Personal Data, which may include the use of encryption technology or anonymization to protect such data from unauthorized access.

Data Use. Cloudera’s Navigator Optimizer service (“Optimizer”) and Workload Analytics service (“Workload Analytics”) do not collect or store any Personal Data or Customer Data. These services may collect and/or store certain types of Transaction Data such as Customer’s queries or workload information (“Analytics Data”).

Availability. Cloudera is committed to making Optimizer and Workload Analytics highly-available services that Customers can count on. To the extent feasible, Cloudera’s infrastructure runs on systems that are fault-tolerant, for failures of individual servers. Cloudera’s operations team tests disaster-recovery measures regularly and staffs a team to quickly resolve unexpected incidents. However, at this time Cloudera makes no uptime or availability guarantees with respect to Optimizer or Workload Analytics or retention of Analytics Data.
