ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

EU and UK users' data being transferred to the US means it falls under US surveillance laws (e.g., FISA Section 702), and while SCCs provide a legal transfer mechanism, they do not eliminate the underlying risk of US government access.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Smartsheet collects a broad range of personal data including contact details, usage behavior, device identifiers, and location data, and shares it with advertising and analytics partners, which may affect users who prefer limited third-party data exposure. For business users, data submitted into the Smartsheet platform is treated as processor data governed by a separate customer agreement, meaning individual employees may not be able to exercise privacy rights directly with Smartsheet and must go through their employer. You can submit a privacy rights request, including deletion and access requests, through Smartsheet's online privacy request portal at https://www.smartsheet.com/legal/privacy-request.
