Customer authorizes G2 to engage third parties or subcontractors to Process Personal Data its behalf (“Subprocessors”). G2 will ensure Subprocessors agree to similar data protection obligations as outlined in this DPA. Except as stated in the Agreement or this DPA, G2’s liability for Subprocessors is limited to the extent as if G2 were performing the services directly, and will not exceed the amount actually recovered by G2 from that Subprocessor. Customer provides G2 with a general authorization to engage Subprocessors.

G2 maintains a list of its Subprocessors at https://legal.g2.com/subprocessors, where Customer is required to subscribe to notifications of new Subprocessors(“Subprocessor Notification”). . If Customer objects to a new Subprocessor, Customer must notify G2 in writing at privacy@G2.com within 10 business days of G2 sending a Subprocessor Notification.

Technical and Organizational Measures

G2 has implemented the following technical and organizational measures for the protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Personal Data:

Access Control: Preventing Unauthorized Product Access	Outsourced processing: G2 hosts its Services with outsourced cloud infrastructure providers. G2 maintains contractual relationships with vendors in order to provide the Services in accordance with its DPA. G2 relies on contractual agreements, privacy policies, and vendor compliance programs in order to protect data processed or stored by these vendors.
	Physical and environmental security: G2 hosts its product infrastructure with multi-tenant, outsourced infrastructure providers. The physical and environmental security controls are audited for SOC 2 Type I and ISO 27001, 27017, 17018 compliance, among other certifications.
	Authentication: G2 implemented a uniform password policy for its Customer’s products. Customers who interact with the products via the user interface must authenticate before accessing non-public Customer data.
	Authorization: Customer data is stored in multi-tenant storage systems accessible to Customers via only application user interfaces and application programming interfaces. Customers are not allowed direct access to the underlying application infrastructure. The authorization model in each of G2’s products is designed to ensure that only the appropriately assigned individuals can access relevant features, views, and customization options. Authorization to data sets is performed through validating the user’s permissions against the attributes associated with each data set.
	Application Programming Interface (API) access: Public product APIs may be accessed using an API.
Access Control: Preventing Unauthorized Product Use	G2 implements industry standard access controls and detection capabilities for the internal networks that support its products.
	Access controls: Network access control mechanisms are designed to prevent network traffic using unauthorized protocols from reaching the product infrastructure. The technical measures implemented differ between infrastructure providers and include Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) implementations, security group assignment, and traditional firewall rules.
	Intrusion detection and prevention: G2 implemented a Web Application Firewall (WAF) solution to protect hosted Customer websites and other internet-accessible applications. The WAF is designed to identify and prevent attacks against publicly available network services.
	Static code analysis: Security reviews of code stored in G2’s source code repositories is performed. Checking for coding best practices and identifiable software flaws.
	Penetration testing: G2 maintains relationships with industry recognized penetration testing service providers for one annual penetration tests. The intent of the penetration tests is to identify and resolve foreseeable attack vectors and potential abuse scenarios.
Access Control: Limitations of Privilege & Authorization Requirements	Product access: A subset of G2’s employees have access to the products and to Customer data via controlled interfaces. The intent of providing access to a subset of employees is to provide effective Customer support, to troubleshoot potential problems, to detect and respond to security incidents and implement data security. All such requests are logged. Employees are granted access by role, and reviews of high risk privilege grants are initiated regularly. Employee roles are reviewed at least once every 6 months.
	Background checks: All G2 employees undergo a third-party background check prior to being extended an employment offer, in accordance with and as permitted by the applicable laws. All employees are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with company guidelines, non-disclosure requirements, and ethical standards.
Transmission Control	In-transit: G2 requires HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS) on every one of its login interfaces. G2’s HTTPS implementation uses industry standard algorithms and certificates.
Transmission Control	At-rest: G2 stores user passwords following policies that follow industry standard practices for security. G2 has implemented technologies to ensure that stored data is encrypted at rest.
Input Control	Detection: G2 designed its infrastructure to log extensive information about the system behavior, traffic received, system authentication, and other application requests. Internal systems aggregated log data and alert appropriate employees of malicious, unintended, or anomalous activities. G2 personnel, including security, operations, and support personnel, are responsive to known incidents.
	Response and tracking: G2 maintains a record of known security incidents that includes description, dates and times of relevant activities, and incident disposition. Suspected and confirmed security incidents are investigated by security, operations, or support personnel; and appropriate resolution steps are identified and documented. For any confirmed incidents, G2 will take appropriate steps to minimize product and Customer damage or unauthorized disclosure.
	Communication: If G2 becomes aware of unlawful access to non-G2 Data stored within its Services, G2 will: 1) notify the affected Customers of the incident; 2) provide a description of the steps G2 is taking to resolve the incident; and 3) provide status updates to the Customer contact, as G2 deems necessary. Notification(s) of incidents, if any, will be delivered to one or more of the Customer’s contacts in a form G2 selects, which may include via email or telephone.
Availability Control	Infrastructure availability: The providers maintain a minimum of N+1 redundancy to power, network, and HVAC services.
	Fault tolerance: Backup and replication strategies are designed to ensure redundancy and fail-over protections during a significant processing failure. Customer data is backed up to multiple durable data stores.
	Online replicas and backups: Where feasible, production databases are designed to replicate data between no less than 1 primary and 1 secondary database. All databases are backed up and maintained using at least industry standard methods.
	G2’s products are designed to ensure redundancy and seamless failover. The server instances that support the products are also architected with a goal to prevent single points of failure. This design assists G2 operations in maintaining and updating the product applications and backend while limiting downtime.
