To do this, Apollo.io may use Submitted Data (as defined in Apollo's Terms of Service) and its proprietary data as inputs to the machine learning models from these third-party providers or to its own internally developed models. This allows us to provide more accurate and relevant recommendations to our users. Apollo will never share Submitted Data with third-party providers for the purposes of algorithm enhancement, however, without disclosing it first to customers and obtaining customer consent.

We take our responsibility to protect our users' data seriously, and we are committed to providing transparency and control over how Submitted Data is used. As such, we provide the following disclosures:
  • Any third-party AI platforms used in Apollo's features will be disclosed in the sub-processor list found in our Trust Center

  • AI features will be blocked in countries that have disabled ChatGPT or similar products, via scanning of IP addresses.
  • Submitted Data that is sent to third-party AI providers will be deleted from those platforms within 30 days.
  • We regularly review and update our policies and procedures to ensure compliance with applicable data protection regulations and industry best practices.
