Security

Alteryx Information Security Program utilizes an overarching framework to address enterprise information security governance, protecting information assets and systems against attacks and incidents while ensuring appropriate security is a priority at all levels of the product development process. It is a risk-based program that aligns with industry-standard frameworks, such as NIST CF and SIRT, to incorporate those security principles applicable to our regulatory and contractual obligations.

Data Transfers

Alteryx complies with its obligations under data protection law with respect to all restricted, cross-border transfers of personal data. Access to customer content through hosting, support, or professional services is managed as a data transfer subject to the standard contractual clauses outlined in Alteryx’s standard data processing agreement (DPA). Internal data transfers between Alteryx entities utilize a comprehensive intra-company DPA and standard contractual clauses.

Data Practices

Alteryx’s privacy program aligns to the NIST Privacy framework using a data lifecycle approach to both product development and our data practices. To comply with applicable law in the jurisdictions in which we do business, as well as to ensure alignment with industry best practices and customer obligations, Alteryx applies a consistent set of privacy principles based on those outlined by the GDPR and any additional requirements for privacy and marketing by state, province, country, or region.

Data Subject Rights

Alteryx has implemented the means of responding to data subject requests under both the GDPR and the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA). The option to make a do-not-sell request under the CCPA is easily accessible in the cookie preference settings on our websites and using our data request form, either online or via the designated toll-free telephone number. Other types of data subject requests may also be made using our consolidated request form. For detailed information and link to the request form, see our Privacy Policy.
