Our entities have entered into binding intra-group transfer agreements which recognise the standards of international data transfers.
We will keep your personal information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice and in accordance with applicable privacy laws and relevant regulations. We will only keep your personal information for as long as necessary for these purposes.

- if we are subject to a legal obligation (for example, certain laws require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period of time before we can delete them); or
- if we may need to retain information in case of a dispute or investigation, including to bring, defend and manage any litigation.

Verint Systems Inc has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it and its U.S. Subsidiaries adhere to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (“EU-U.S. DPF Principles”) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF. Verint Systems Inc has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it and its U.S. Subsidiaries adhere to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (“Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles”) with regard to the processing of personal information received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. We refer to the EU-U.S. DPR Principles, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles as the “DPF Principles”. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Notice and the DPF Principles, the applicable DPF Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.
Verint Systems Inc confirms on behalf of itself and its U.S. Subsidiaries that for all personal data falling under the scope of the DPF Principles:
- Verint Systems Inc and its U.S. Subsidiaries adhere to the DPF Principles with regard to personal data;
- The types of personal data collected will be that personal data mentioned in the “What information do we collect and hold, and what do we use this information for?” section of this Privacy Notice;
- The purposes for which Verint collects and processes personal information is set out in the “What information do we collect and hold, and what do we use this information for?” section of this Privacy Notice;
- Should you have any questions about Verint Systems Inc’s or its U.S. Subsidiaries’ compliance with the DPF Principles or any other inquiries or complaints please complete the Verint contact form or email at globalprivacy@verint.com;
- We use third party service providers to provide business support services. The types and identity of third parties to whom Verint discloses personal data is set out in the “Who we might share your personal information with?” section this Privacy Notice;
- Where Verint has collected personal data about you which is transferred to United States for processing under the DPF Principles, you have the right to make a request to access personal data that we have collected about you which falls under the DPF Principles (subject to certain exceptions) by contacting Verint (see the Contact Us section above);
- Where Verint has collected personal data about you which is transferred to the United States for processing under the DPF Principles, in certain circumstances, you may have the right to request the limiting the use of such data and certain disclosures by contacting Verint (see the Contact Us section above);
- Where Verint has collected personal data about you which is transferred to United States for processing under the DPF Principles, you should first make a complaint to Verint if you believe we have not complied with the DPF Principles by contacting Verint (see the Contact Us section above);
- For any complaints related to the DPF Framework that Verint is unable to resolve directly, we have chosen to co-operate with the relevant EU Data Protection Authority for the EU member state where the EU individual making the complaint is a resident or data protection authority panel established by the European data protection authorities, the UK Information Commissioner (for UK individuals) and the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC for resolving disputes with Swiss individuals).
- As further explained in the DPF Principles, binding arbitration is available to address residual complaints not resolved by other means in accordance with Annex I of the DPF Principles.
- Verint Systems Inc and its U.S. Subsidiaries are subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC); and
- Verint remains liable for onward transfers of personal data regulated under the DPF Framework to third parties.
Verint cannot action an ‘access request’ or ‘limitation of use request’ where it is not the controller of personal data because we have been appointed as a “processor” or “service provider” to a data controller based in the European Union, United Kingdom or Switzerland. You should make such requests directly to that data controller and if you make the request directly to us, Verint may assist in redirecting you to the appropriate data controller.
Verint may, under specific certain conditions which satisfy the DPF Principles, be required to respond to a lawful request by public authorities.
