Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause delineates the scope of Salesforce's privacy obligations by excluding processor relationships from the Privacy Statement's coverage. When Salesforce operates as a processor rather than a controller, different data protection obligations and contractual frameworks typically apply under separate data processing agreements, which affects how personal data handling is governed and what privacy disclosures apply.
