ZoomInfo has met the rigorous qualifications of ISO 27701, a privacy extension to the international information security management standard, ISO/IEC 27001, which the company attained in 2020. ISO 27701 provides the requirements and guidance for companies to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve their Privacy Information Management System.

While privacy and the safeguarding of information were audited as part of the previously attained ISO 27001, the new standard expands the scope to affirm ZoomInfo’s framework and techniques for protecting and processing individuals’ information.

“ZoomInfo’s ongoing investment and commitment to privacy leadership puts us at the forefront of privacy efforts within our industry,” said Simon McDougall, ZoomInfo’s Chief Compliance Officer. “This certification demonstrates that our implementation of privacy and security controls are consistent with the ISO framework. We aim to go above and beyond the core requirements for protecting any assets in which customer and individual information resides.”

ZoomInfo continues to invest heavily in its commitment to privacy. On top of the ISO 27001 and 27701 certifications, the company has recently hired McDougall, a renowned data privacy expert, as Chief Compliance Officer, launched the business-to-business data industry’s first Business Contact Preference Registry, and attained the TrustArc GDPR and CCPA Practices Validations.

ZoomInfo emphasizes GDPR and CCPA compliance. In addition to creating the industry’s first proactive notice program, the company is a registered data broker with the states of California and Vermont. Read about ZoomInfo’s commitment to compliance, privacy, and security.
