What it is

Salesforce states it maintains compliance with local and international laws and provides compliance documentation to support customers in regulated industries.

This analysis describes what Salesforce's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes the legal jurisdiction and regulatory foundation for the agreement. It clarifies that Salesforce's operations, data handling practices, and enforcement mechanisms are subject to the laws of relevant jurisdictions, which affects how disputes are adjudicated and what regulatory requirements apply.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Organizations using Salesforce in regulated industries can access compliance documentation to verify whether Salesforce meets the standards required by their sector's laws. This is particularly important for healthcare organizations subject to HIPAA or financial firms subject to SOX or PCI-DSS.
