Zoho uses certain sub-processors, content delivery networks and third parties to assist it in providing the Zoho Services.
What is a Sub-processor
A sub-processor is a third party data operator engaged by Zoho, who has or potentially will have access to or process Service Data (which may contain Personal Information). Zoho engages different types of sub-processors to perform various functions as explained in the tables below.
Process followed to on-board a Sub-Processor
Zoho evaluates the security and privacy practices of sub-processors whom we wish to contract to ensure that they are in line with Zoho's information security and privacy standards. We then execute appropriate data protection agreements with them.
Third Party Service Providers used by Zoho to provide you the Services:
What is a Third Party Service Provider?
In this context, "Third Party Service Provider" means those recipients of personal information that do not fall strictly under the category of sub-processors. It may be because either Zoho is acting as a controller for the information shared with the Third Party Service Provider (such as information processed for spam filtering and fraud prevention) or the Third Party Service Provider acts as an independent controller (for example, because of a legal obligation). The role of each Third Party Service Provider is specified below.
We will give you a choice to disable the use of a particular Third Party Service Provider except when the Third Party Service Provider is used for critical requirements such as fraud prevention. Where we do not give you a choice to disable the use of a particular Third Party Service Provider, we will take measures to ensure that your information is secure and is processed in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
