Third-Party Subprocessors
Effective 11 February 2021
See change log
What is a Third-Party Subprocessor:
A subprocessor is a vendor Zoom uses to process data on behalf of our customers, who are the data controllers of that data.
Zoom’s Process for Contracting with Third-Party Subprocessors
Zoom requires its subprocessors to satisfy equivalent obligations as those required from Zoom (as a Data Processor) as outlined in Zoom's Data Processing Agreement (DPA), including but not limited to the requirements to:
- process personal data following data controller's (i.e., Customer's) documented instructions (as communicated in writing to the relevant subprocessor by Zoom);
- in connection with the subprocessing activities, use only personnel who are reliable and subject to a contractually binding obligation to observe data privacy and security, to the extent applicable, under applicable data protection laws;
- promptly inform Zoom about any security breach; and
- cooperate with Zoom to address requests from data controllers, data subjects, or data protection authorities, as applicable.
Except for as provided below, Zoom owns or controls access to the infrastructure that hosts real-time and stored personal data (should the Customer choose to store such content, e.g., recordings and transcripts). Personal data may be shifted among data centers within a region to ensure Zoom's performance and availability. Zoom also works with the listed service subprocessors below to provide the noted functionality.
The following table describes the countries and legal entities engaged in the processing and storage of personal data by Zoom acting as a data processor on behalf of its customers, the data controllers.

Notes |
14 October 2020 |
Removed vendors erroneously classified as subprocessors |
Following an internal assessment, we identified some vendors previously listed that did not, in fact, process any customer data for which Zoom is the data processor. For that reason, we removed them. |
14 October 2020 |
Added Apple and Google Firebase for accuracy |
Following an internal assessment, we identified the absence of two vendors for mobile phone push notifications. Zoom has always used these vendors for that purpose; they are not new subprocessors. |
