Last Updated: May 25, 2021

This Notice explains how Snowflake Inc. and its affiliates and subsidiaries (“Snowflake”, “we”, “our” or “us”) collect, store, use, disclose and otherwise process information about you in the course of our business, including through our websites that link to this Notice (such as, www.snowflake.com) (the “Sites”), our SaaS-based data-warehousing services (the “Service”) and through other means such as our and our partner’s events, sales and marketing activities. It also sets out more information about your privacy rights.

About Our Service

We provide the Service to our customers under an agreement with them and solely for their benefit and the benefit of their personnel and other personnel authorized by them as users of the Service (“Authorized Users”).

In such circumstances you should refer to their privacy notice and direct any queries to them. The customer’s agreement with Snowflake governs our use of and processing of Customer Content in these circumstances.

5. Targeted Online Advertisements

We use one or more third party service providers to serve ads on the Sites and/or other websites. These third parties may automatically collect and use certain information about your online activities, either on our Sites or other websites, such as your IP address, your ISP and the browser you are using. They do this using cookies, clear gifs and similar tracking technologies. Information collected may be used, alone or in combination with information about you we obtain from other sources (like our data partners and offline customer data), to among other things, deliver advertising targeted to your interests, including serving ads related to our products or services when you access and use other websites and to better understand the usage of the Sites tracked by these third parties. 

This Notice does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, cookies or clear gifs in third party ads, and we encourage you to check the privacy policies of advertisers and/or ad services to learn about their use of cookies and other technology.
