This clause establishes the operational framework for Zendesk's use of sub-processors and defines the scope of their data access and permitted uses. It creates a contractual obligation requiring sub-processors to limit personal data use to specified service functions rather than broader commercial purposes.
Users' personal data may be accessed by third-party sub-processors engaged by Zendesk to support service operations, analytics, and functionality. The provision conditions this access on sub-processors' contractual obligation to use data only for the specified service purposes and to refrain from disclosure or alternative uses.
