Watch: audit rights dpa residency
Start here. These are the highest-risk verified clauses AIRIN found in the platform's own policy text.
The open-ended reference to 'any country where Zendesk or its service providers maintain facilities' means users cannot rely on a fixed data residency commitment; relevant for GDPR and cross-border compliance.
Vague retention standards without concrete timeframes make it difficult for users to exercise rights or predict when their data will be deleted; the broad exception categories can justify indefinite retention.
As a data processor under GDPR Art. 28, Forethought's obligations run primarily to the controller (business customer), not the data subject. End users have fewer direct rights against processors, and this clause explicitly redirects privacy inquiries away from Forethought.

As a data processor under GDPR Art. 28, Forethought's obligations run primarily to the controller (business customer), not the data subject. End users have fewer direct rights against processors, and this clause explicitly redirects privacy inquiries away from Forethought.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"We use data to analyze trends to identify future opportunities for the development, promotion, and improvement of our Services, in reliance on our legitimate interests in developing and improving our Services, or where required, with your consent. For example, we use data, often in a de-identified form, to develop new features, capabilities, or products, improve the user experience, assess capability requirements, and identify customer opportunities."Permalink to this finding →
Under GDPR Art. 6(1)(f), legitimate interests can justify processing without consent, but users retain a right to object. The clause's framing means users are not automatically opted out of this use.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"we collect through our interactions with you to conduct marketing research, advertise to you, provide personalized information about us on and off our websites, and to provide other personalized content based on your activities and interests to the extent it is necessary for our legitimate interest in advertising our Services, or where necessary, to the extent that you have provided your prior consent.

For these purposes, we may link or combine information about you with other personal information we get from third parties, to help understand your needs and provide you with better and more personalized service or content."Permalink to this finding →
Use of 'legitimate interest' as a basis for advertising and data combination is a weaker protection for users than consent-based processing; users may not be aware their data is enriched with third-party information for targeted advertising.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"We are not responsible for the privacy or data security practices of our business customers, which may differ from those set forth in this Policy."Permalink to this finding →
This disclaimer limits Forethought's liability for downstream data handling by its customers. Under GDPR, a processor is not absolved of all obligations, but this clause signals Forethought will not proactively police customer data practices.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" We use your personal information for a variety of purposes and on the legal bases described in this Policy or disclosed to you in our Services, including: Improving and developing the Services: We use data to analyze trends to identify future opportunities for the development, promotion, and improvement of our Services, in reliance on our legitimate interests in developing and improving our Services, or where required, with your consent. For example, we use data, often in a de-identified form, to develop new features, capabilities, or products, improve the user experience, assess capability requirements, and identify customer opportunities. Securing the Services: We process data by tracking use of our websites and services for the purposes of maintaining the safety and security of our Services, including verifying accounts and activity, investigating suspicious activity, and enforcing our terms and policies, in reliance on our legitimate interest in promoting the safety and security of our Services, systems and applications and in protecting our rights and the rights of others. Handling contact and user requests: If you fill out a web form or request support, if you contact us by other means, including via a phone call, we use your data to perform our contract with you or if we do not have a contract directly with you, in reliance on our legitimate interests in fulfilling your requests and communicating with you. "Permalink to this finding →

Combining first-party behavioral data with third-party data for off-site advertising using legitimate interests as the lawful basis is a contested practice under GDPR and ePrivacy rules. Users must proactively exercise rights to opt out.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"In carrying out these purposes, we combine data we collect from different contexts or that we obtain from third parties to give you a more seamless, consistent, and personalized experience, to make informed business decisions, and for other legitimate purposes."Permalink to this finding →
Cross-context data combination and open-ended 'legitimate purposes' language provides little specificity about what user data is combined or how, increasing profiling risk.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"Forethought will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the purposes it was collected, or for other essential purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements. Because these needs can vary for different data types in the context of different services, actual retention periods can vary significantly. We determine the appropriate retention period for personal information based on the amount, nature and sensitivity of your personal information processed, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information and whether we can achieve the purposes of the processing through other means, as well as applicable legal requirements (such as applicable statutes of limitation)."Permalink to this finding →
Vague retention standards without concrete timeframes make it difficult for users to exercise rights or predict when their data will be deleted; the broad exception categories can justify indefinite retention.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"We may disclose your personal information to third parties for legitimate purposes subject to this Policy, including as follows: with our affiliates within the Zendesk corporate group (including our parent company, Zendesk, Inc.) to the extent such disclosure of personal information is necessary for integrated customer support, marketing, technical operations, and group-wide account management purposes. with your affiliated customer responsible for your access to the Services if you use our services as an authorized user, to the extent this is necessary including for verifying accounts and activity, investigating suspicious activity, or enforcing our terms and policies. with our contracted vendors, consultants, and other third parties who provide services to us such as IT and system administration and hosting, research and analytics, marketing, customer support, and data enrichment for the purposes described above."
Sharing with parent company (Zendesk), the user's affiliated employer, and third-party data enrichment vendors expands the circle of data recipients significantly; users may not know who ultimately holds their data.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"in connection with or during negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, transaction, or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture, or disclosure of all or a portion of our business or assets to another company. In accordance with applicable laws, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any transfer of personal information to an unaffiliated third party."
M&A carve-outs are standard but represent a material risk — data could pass to a company with very different privacy practices; 'reasonable efforts to notify' does not require consent or advance notice.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"We maintain primary data centers in the United States. Personal information may be stored and processed in your region or the United States. As we integrate our services, your data may be migrated from Forethought’s legacy infrastructure to the Zendesk AWS infrastructure and processed in any country where Zendesk or its service providers maintain facilities."
The open-ended reference to 'any country where Zendesk or its service providers maintain facilities' means users cannot rely on a fixed data residency commitment; relevant for GDPR and cross-border compliance.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
