7Cisco Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively "Cisco") are committed to protecting your privacy and providing you with a positive experience when directly interacting with us (i.e., visiting Cisco offices, attending Cisco events and meetings, or calling customer support), engaging with our websites, and while using our offers and services ("Solutions").
8This Privacy Statement applies to direct interactions with us and Cisco websites and Solutions that link to or reference this Privacy Statement and describes how we handle Personal Data and the choices available to you regarding collection, use, access, and how to update and correct your Personal Data. Additional information on our Data practices may be provided in [Cisco General Disclosures](https://trustportal.cisco.com/c/r/ctp/trust-portal.html) and Solution specific [Cisco Offer Disclosures](https://trustportal.cisco.com/c/r/ctp/trust-portal.html), [offer descriptions](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/cloud-and-software/software-terms.html), or other notices provided prior to or at the time of data collection. Certain Cisco interactions, websites, and Solutions may have their own privacy documentation describing how we handle Personal Data for those interactions, websites, or Solutions specifically. To the extent a specific notice for an interaction, website, or Solution differs from this Privacy Statement, the specific notice will take precedent. If there is a difference in translated, non-English versions of this Privacy Statement, the U.S.-English version will take precedence.

90
91We take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the Personal Data entrusted to us and treat it securely in accordance with this Privacy Statement. Cisco implements physical, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your Personal Data from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, and unauthorized disclosure or access. We also contractually require that our suppliers protect such information from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, and unauthorized disclosure or access.
92

96
97We will not retain Personal Data in identifiable form when the purpose(s) for which the Personal Data was collected have been achieved and there is no legal or business need to retain such Personal Data. Thereafter, the data will either be destroyed, deleted, anonymized, and/or removed from our systems.
98
99### Use of cookies and similar technologies
100
101Cisco uses automatic data collection tools, such as cookies, embedded web links, pixels, tags, and web beacons. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to us (such as Internet Protocol \[IP\] address, MAC address, clickstream behavior, and telemetry).
102
103These tools help make your visit to our websites and Solutions easier, more efficient, and personalized. We also use the information to improve our websites and Solutions, provide greater service and value, better understand your potential interest in our websites and Solutions, and provide you with more relevant ads and other content.
104
105We partner with third parties to display advertising on our website and to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third-party partners may use cookies or similar technologies to provide you with advertising based on your browsing activities and interests. Where this type of third-party advertising is disabled, generic, non-personalized ads will continue to be displayed.
106
107For more information, or if you would like to opt out of interest-based advertising, see [How Cisco Uses Automatic Data Collection Tools](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/automatic-data-collection-cookies.html).
108
109To update your cookie preferences, click the "Cookies" or "Cookies / Do not sell or share my personal data" link at the bottom of any page on this website. Additionally, you may be able to use other tools to control cookies and similar technologies. For example, you may have controls in your internet browser to limit how the websites you visit are able to use cookies.
110
111Please note that specific Cisco web properties may store or process data in different ways; therefore, you may need to repeat this process again for various reasons, including :
112
113- If you have taken the action on one Cisco-owned domain (e.g., cisco.com) you may need to take action separately on another Cisco-owned domain.
114- If you have chosen to use a browser that automatically clears cookies
115
116If you clear your cookies in a particular browser, it resets your preferences / settings for that specific browser session because your choice is specific to the applicable Cisco web property and/or to the specific device and browser you are using.
117
118You can always confirm your desired settings on a given Cisco web property by clicking the "Cookies" or "Cookies / Do not sell or share my personal data" in the footer of that page.
119
120### Automated decision-making
121
122We process Personal Data using both manual and automated methods of processing. Automated methods are often used to assist our manual methods in accordance with applicable laws. Where an individual's legal rights and legitimate interests may be impacted by such automated decision-making, we will provide the impacted individual the opportunity to inquire about the decision or request manual review. Manual review may be conducted by Cisco employees or trusted third-party business partners working on Cisco's behalf.
123
124### Linked websites and third-party Apps
125
126We may provide access or links to third-party websites, Apps, and services that are outside Cisco's control and governed by the respective third party's privacy policy, not by this Privacy Statement. We encourage you to review the privacy statements posted on the websites you visit and in the applications you use.
127
128### Forums and chat rooms
129
130If you participate in a discussion forum, local communities, or chat room on a Cisco website, you should be aware that the information you provide there (such as your public profile and comments) will be made broadly available to others and could be used to contact you, to send you unsolicited messages, or for purposes neither Cisco nor you have control over. Also, please recognize that individual forums and chat rooms may have additional rules and conditions. Cisco is not responsible for the Personal Data or any other information you choose to submit in these forums. To request removal of your Personal Data from our blog or community forum, please submit a [Privacy Request](https://privacyrequest.cisco.com/). In some cases, we may not be able to remove all Personal Data and comments. In such cases, we will provide you with a response and explanation.
131
132### Children's privacy
133
134Cisco encourages parents and guardians to take an active role in their children's online activities. Cisco does not knowingly collect Personal Data from children without appropriate parental or guardian consent. If you believe that we may have collected Personal Data from someone under the applicable age of consent in your country without proper consent, please let us know using the methods described in the [Questions, comments, and how to contact us](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/privacy-full.html) section and we will take appropriate measures to investigate and address the issue promptly.
135
136### International transfer, processing, and storage of Personal Data
137
138As Cisco is a global organization, Personal Data may be transferred to Cisco in the United States of America, to any Cisco subsidiary worldwide, or to third parties and business partners as described above, that are located in various jurisdictions around the world. Similarly, Personal Data may be accessed from countries where Cisco or its subsidiaries have operations. Cisco will transfer your Personal Data in accordance with approved transfer mechanisms as well as any applicable local legal requirements.
139
140By interacting with us, using our websites and Solutions or providing any Personal Data to us, where applicable law permits, you acknowledge and accept the transfer, processing, and storage of such information outside of your country of residence where data protection standards may be different.
141
142Cisco safeguards and enables the global transfer of Personal Data in a number of ways:
143
144- Global Privacy Certifications
145
146Cisco's global privacy program, described in this Privacy Statement, complies with the Global Cross-Border Privacy Rules (CBPR) and the Privacy Recognition for Processors (PRP) program requirements. The Global CBPR and PRP system provide a framework for organizations to ensure the protection of Personal Data transferred between participating Global economies. More information about the Global Privacy Framework, CBPRs, and PRP can be found on the [Global CBPR Forum site](https://www.globalcbpr.org/). Our certification applies to our business processes across our global operations that process and transfer Personal Data to and from our affiliates around the world.

151
152- EU Binding Corporate Rules-Controller
153
154Cisco's global privacy program and policies have been approved by the Dutch, Polish, Spanish, and other relevant European privacy regulators as providing additional safeguards for the protection of privacy, fundamental rights, and freedoms of individuals for transfers of Personal Data protected under European law. Cisco's EU Binding Corporate Rules-Controller (EU BCR-C) provide that international transfers made worldwide by Cisco entities bound by these rules as a controller of European Personal Data benefit from appropriate safeguards.

156
157- U.K. Binding Corporate Rules-Controller
158
159Cisco's global privacy program and policies have been approved by U.K.'s Information Commissioner's Office, as providing additional safeguards for the protection of privacy, fundamental rights, and freedoms of individuals for transfers of Personal Data protected under U.K. law. Cisco's U.K. Binding Corporate Rules-Controller (U.K. BCR-C) provide that international transfers made worldwide by Cisco entities bound by these rules as a controller of U.K. Personal Data benefit from appropriate safeguards.

Cisco-U.S. has also certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles with regards to the processing of Personal Data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Statement and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles, the U.K. Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF Principles, and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the DPF Principles shall govern. For more information about the DPF program, and to view our certification, please visit the [DPF Website](https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/).
166
167Pursuant to the DPF Principles, Cisco-U.S. commits to the following:
168
169Cisco-U.S. is responsible for the processing of Personal Data it receives under the DPF, and subsequently may transfer it to third parties acting as agents on its behalf. Cisco-U.S. complies with the DPF Principles for all onward transfers of Personal Data from the EU, EEA, U.K. (and Gibraltar), and Switzerland (for examples of such transfers, see [Disclosing your Personal Data](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/privacy-full.html)), including the onward transfer liability provisions. In certain situations, Cisco-U.S. may be required to disclose Personal Data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. Further, Cisco-U.S. is committed to protecting Personal Data received from EU and EEA member countries, Switzerland, and the U.K. (and Gibraltar) (see [Collection and use of your Personal Data](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/privacy-full.html) for examples of the Personal Data Cisco processes when you use our websites and Solutions and interact with us) in accordance with the DPF's applicable Principles and to help ensure Personal Data collected from individuals is accessible to them as part of their individual rights when Cisco is the Controller of the Personal Data (see [Your privacy rights](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/privacy-full.html)). Furthermore, Cisco acknowledges the right of EU, EEA, U.K. (and Gibraltar), and Swiss individuals to request access to their data while it is in the U.S. and to correct, amend, and supplement inaccurate or incomplete data. Said individuals also have the right to request erasure of Personal Data that has been handled in violation of the DPF Principles. Subject individuals interested in accessing their data should see [Disclosing your Personal Data](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/privacy-full.html) for information on how to contact us, or submit a [Privacy Request online](https://privacyrequest.cisco.com/).
170
171In compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF Principles, the U.K. Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF Principles, and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, Cisco-U.S. commits to resolve complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your Personal Data transferred to the U.S. pursuant to the DPF Principles. EU, EEA, U.K. (and Gibraltar), and Swiss individuals with DPF inquiries or complaints, or any questions or concerns regarding Cisco-U.S. processing or international transfer of their Personal Data should first contact Cisco-U.S. by submitting a [Privacy Request](https://privacyrequest.cisco.com/) online.
172
173Cisco-U.S. has further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the DPF Principles to a U.S.-based independent third-party dispute resolution mechanism, DPF Services, operated by JAMS.

This service is provided free of charge to you.
174
175If your DPF complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration for some residual claims not resolved by other redress mechanisms. See [https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/article/G-Arbitration-Procedures-dpf?tabset-35584=2](https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/article/G-Arbitration-Procedures-dpf).
176
177Cisco-U.S. is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.
178
179- Standard Contractual Clauses
180
181When we transfer Personal Data out of the jurisdiction in which it was collected to countries that do not benefit from an adequacy decision, other transfer mechanism, or exemption, we may rely on Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable (ie, Brazil, EU and EEA, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the U.K., and Switzerland) with appropriate safeguards in place to protect Personal Data.
182

185Cisco commits to resolve complaints and concerns about your privacy and our collection and use of your Personal Data.

191### Your California privacy rights
192
193California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) / California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA)
194
195For business purposes in the last 12 months, Cisco may have collected, used, and shared Personal Data about you as described in this Privacy Statement. Each category of data that may be used by Cisco or shared with third parties is categorically outlined in this Privacy Statement. Cisco does not sell Personal Data as the term "sell" is traditionally understood.
196
197California residents (as well as those in jurisdictions with similar laws) have the right to ask Cisco not to "sell" or "share" certain Personal Data. For more information on how to make such a request, please see "Use of cookies and similar technologies" above or click the "Cookies / Do not sell or share my personal data" or "Cookies" link at the bottom of any page on this website. Please note that your choice is specific to the digital property you are visiting or website, the browser you are using, and to the device you are engaged with using. You will need to exercise your preferences specifically on each Cisco digital property that links to this Privacy Statement. California consumers have a right to: (1) request access, correction, and deletion of their Personal Data, (2) opt out of the sale or sharing of their Personal Data, and (3) not be discriminated against for exercising one of their California privacy rights. For more information on how to make a request to opt out of sharing certain Personal Data, please see "Use of cookies and similar technologies" above or click the "Cookies/Do not sell or share my personal data" or "Cookies" in the website footer. All individuals have the right to request access to and deletion of the information Cisco holds about them either online via the [Cisco Privacy Request Form](https://privacyrequest.cisco.com/) or by mail to Cisco Systems, Inc., Privacy Office, 170 West Tasman Dr., San Jose, CA 95134, USA.
198
199In addition, California residents may also submit a request by calling direct 408-906-2726 or toll free 833-774-2726 (833-PRI-CSCO).
200
201Cisco does not sell the Personal Data of California consumers.
202
203Cisco does not discriminate against individuals for exercising their privacy rights.
204
205Residents of the State of California, under California Civil Code § 1798.83, have the right to request from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to which the company has disclosed Personal Data during the preceding year for direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that if the company has a privacy policy that gives either an opt out or opt in choice for use of your Personal Data by third parties (such as advertisers) for marketing purposes, the company may instead provide you with information on how to exercise your disclosure choice options.
206
207Cisco has a comprehensive Privacy Statement and provides you with details on how you may either opt-out or opt-in to the use of your Personal Data by third parties for direct marketing purposes. Therefore, we are not required to maintain nor disclose a list of the third parties that received your Personal Data for marketing purposes during the preceding year.
208
