Xerox Privacy Statement

Effective Date: December 15, 2023

Introduction

This privacy statement describes how Xerox Holdings Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Xerox,” “we,” “us” or “our”) collect, protect, use, and disclose your information, including personal information, when you visit our websites, purchase and use any of our products or services, apply for a job, or otherwise communicate or interact with us including when accessing product and technical support. Please note that Xerox also offers access to third-party applications and services, either as a direct reseller or as a licensor. In such cases, the third-party’s privacy policy is the appropriate policy to look to and will usually be referenced directly in that application or service.

What we mean by “Personal Information”

In this Privacy Statement, “personal information” generally means information (regardless of its format) that can be used, either alone or in combination with other information, to identify an individual. This may include, for example, name, contact information, mailing address, email address, purchase history and other information relating to your account with us (as the case may be). It may also include other types of more technical information, but only when this information can identify you as an individual. Information that is anonymized and cannot be associated with an identifiable individual is not considered personal information, if it is, at all times, reasonably foreseeable in the circumstances that this information irreversibly no longer allows the individual to be identified directly or indirectly.

Personal Information We Collect

Xerox collects personal information to allow us to communicate with you, process your orders, support you as customers, potential customers, (including providing you with products and services), conduct marketing, or for employment consideration. We collect personal information when you contact or do business with Xerox, including when you:

Social Media Data. We may provide social media features that enable you to share information with your social networks. Your use of these features may result in the collection or sharing of information about you by the social networking site. Please review the privacy policies and settings of social networks you use to understand their practices.

Professional, education and employment-related information on job applications/CVs/resumes which you provide to us if you submit a job application to Xerox either directly or indirectly, which may include sensitive (also known as ‘special category’) personal information.

Where We Process and Store Personal Information

Personal information collected by Xerox may be transferred to, stored, or processed in your region, in the United States, or in any other country in which Xerox or its subsidiaries, affiliates, sub-contractors, agents or partners operate. As a result, when your personal information is used or stored in a jurisdiction other than where you are residing, it may be subject to the law of this foreign jurisdiction, including any law permitting or requiring disclosure of the information to the government, government agencies, courts, and law enforcement in that jurisdiction.

Our subsidiaries, affiliates, sub-contractors, agents and partners are required to safeguard any personal information they receive from us and are prohibited from using the personal information for any purpose other than to perform the services as instructed by Xerox. We also take steps to provide adequate protection for any transfers of your personal information in accordance with applicable law.

We take steps to ensure that we collect and process personal information according to the provisions of this statement and the requirements of applicable law wherever the data is located. Sometimes we transfer personal information from the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom to other countries. When we do, we use a variety of legal mechanisms, including, as appropriate, Standard Contractual Clauses, to help ensure any required rights and protections apply to your data.

Video Links

Clicking on videos on Xerox.com may (1) take you to a third party’s site to play the video, or (2) play the video on Xerox.com and this functionality may be supported by a third party’s site or technology. In any such case, by playing the video you are using a third-party site and will be subject to that third party’s terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, its terms of service and policies on privacy and collection and use of your information. (e.g., https://www.youtube.com/t/terms)

Applications

Google Drive

Use of Print from Google Drive or Scan to Google Drive (each an “Application” and together the “Applications”) may take you to your Google Drive. Your Google Drive is a third party site and Xerox has no control over the privacy policies or terms of use of that site. The Applications present you with Google Drive login screens, so that you enter your credentials directly into Google. The Applications display your Google Drive content directory (file and folder names). The Print from Google Drive application will temporarily download a selected file, submit it to the device for printing, then delete the file after printing. The Applications do not store your credentials. By using the Applications, you may become subject to the third party’s terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, its terms of service and policies on privacy and collection and use of your information. Read more about how Google uses your information here.

Other Third-Party Services

A number of Xerox services permit you to connect to third-party services such as DropBox, Box and Office365 and although such credentials may be temporarily retained within either a device or application at the user’s discretion and for their convenience, Xerox itself does not collect or centrally store such third-party credentials. By using the Applications, you may become subject to the third party’s terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, its terms of service and policies on privacy and collection and use of your information.

Transparency Report.

To the best of its knowledge, Xerox Holdings Corporation has never received or responded to any national surveillance subpoena or warrant under FISA or EO 12333. Based on this history and Xerox’s continued commitment to adhere to the privacy principles, EU and Swiss data subjects and our customers may have reasonable assurance that (1) Xerox Holdings Corporation is unlikely to receive a FISA or EO 12333 subpoena or warrant targeting the personal data of an EU or Swiss citizen, and therefore the concerns cited by the EU Court in Schrems II are unlikely to be implicated as to such personal data transferred to Xerox in the U.S., and (2) the personal data transferred to Xerox in the U.S. and the rights of EU and Swiss citizens are adequately protected consistent with the requirements of GDPR and the Swiss FADP.

Period of Storage

Xerox retains personal information for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Statement, including to provide the products and fulfill the services and transactions you have requested or for other essential purposes and when required or authorized by law. Actual retention periods can vary. The criteria used to determine the retention periods include: (i) how long personal information is needed to provide our products or operate our business; (ii) whether the personal information is of a sensitive type; and (iii) whether Xerox is subject to a legal, contractual, or similar obligation to retain the data.

Your Choices and Privacy Rights

You have choices regarding how Xerox processes your personal information. When you are asked to provide personal information, you may decline. However, if you choose not to provide information that is necessary to provide a product, service, or feature, we may not be able to provide you that product, service, or feature. In particular, you may exercise the following choices:

If the collection and/or processing of personal information is based on your consent, you have a right to withdraw consent at any time for future processing, subject to contractual and legal restrictions;
Where applicable, you have a right to request from us, (i) access to and receipt of personal information, (ii) transfer of personal information, and (iii) rectification or deletion of your personal information;

You may contact Xerox to check the accuracy of your personal information or to request that your information be updated or deleted by writing to privacy@xerox.com. Please indicate “Access” in the subject line and let us know the details of your request in the body of the message. Xerox reserves the right to confirm your identity and to modify the scope and number of requests. In certain cases, your request may be denied on the basis of a legitimate exception or where we are legally prevented from honoring such request. Your rights to request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about you and how we have processed it, correct inaccuracies, get a copy of, or delete your personal information may be limited in some circumstances by applicable law.

Xerox does not direct any part of its website to children under 16 years old (or such age as a child is defined by local law if higher) and does not knowingly collect personal information from children or target its website or products to children. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 16 years old without verification of parental consent, we will delete the information.

Security of Personal Information

Xerox is committed to protecting the security of your personal information and maintains strict access control over it. We utilize reasonable security procedures and practices and appropriate, technical and organizational measures to safeguard the personal information we collect and process against any unauthorized access, use, disclosure, loss or theft of personal information.

Depending on the volume and sensitivity of the information, the purposes for which it is used and the format in which it is stored, we implement a combination of measures to protect your personal information, including:

Internal policies and procedures that define the roles and responsibilities of our employees throughout the information life cycle and limits their access to such information on a “need-to-know” basis;
Technical safeguards such as encryption, firewalls, antivirus software and similar measures to protect information stored in electronic format;
A designated Privacy Officer to monitor our compliance with applicable privacy laws;
