Prohibited Data

Protected Health Information (“PHI”). Under the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and other health data privacy laws, certain information about a person’s health or health care services is classified as PHI or sensitive information. Unless You are using the Offerings under at least an Enterprise (excluding Legacy Enterprise) plan and have signed a Business Associate Agreement with Smartsheet, You may not submit or store PHI in the Offerings. The Smartsheet HIPAA Implementation Guide provides information on features and security controls that can be employed to assist with Your compliance obligations. Contact Your account representative or privacy@smartsheet.com with questions about storing PHI in the Offerings.

Payment Card Industry (“PCI”). Smartsheet does not intend the use of the Offerings to be in compliance with the Payment Card Industry Security Standards. Accordingly, You agree not to use the Offerings to submit or store PCI data.

You are responsible for securing, using, and monitoring an internet connection, which may include a VPN, that is compliant with laws and regulations of the jurisdiction from which you access Smartsheet’s Offerings.

You are prohibited from using the Offerings (a) in a jurisdiction that is subject to a United States government embargo, or that is in Group E of Title 15, Part 740 Supplement 1 Country of the United States Code of Federal Regulations, (b) in a jurisdiction that has been designated by the United States government as a “terrorist supporting” country, (c) in a jurisdiction that is listed on any other United States government list of prohibited or restricted parties, or (d) in violation of any other embargo or export restriction; unless You have secured express written approval from the applicable governing authority.

 

Reported IP Abuse

To the extent You use the Offerings to publish or otherwise make available content, You must comply with any notices received under Title II of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (Section 512 of the U.S. Copyright Act) or similar statute in other countries (the “DMCA”). It is Smartsheet’s policy to respond to valid notices of claimed intellectual property infringement. If Smartsheet receives a notice alleging that material on any sheet, dashboard, report, or form made publicly available infringes or misappropriates another party’s intellectual property, Smartsheet may take any remedial action it deems necessary, as further outlined below.

If You encounter content that You believe violates this AUP, please report it to us using the Report Abuse link. Smartsheet may but is not obligated to investigate any violation of this AUP or misuse of the Offerings. 

 

Violation of this AUP

In addition to any other remedies that may be available, Smartsheet reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to take any remedial action it deems necessary, including immediately suspending or terminating Your account or unpublishing any sheet, dashboard, or report, to prevent disruption of the Offerings or to protect the rights and safety of individuals, customers, or Smartsheet.

If Customer has, or Smartsheet reasonably suspects based on documented evidence that Customer has, violated any law or regulation, Smartsheet may report such violations to the appropriate law enforcement officials, regulators, or other third parties. Smartsheet’s reporting may include disclosing relevant Customer information. Smartsheet also may cooperate with appropriate law enforcement agencies, regulators, or other third parties to help with the investigation and prosecution of illegal conduct by providing network and systems information related to alleged violations of this AUP.

 

Revision to this Policy

Smartsheet may revise this AUP from time to time to reflect changes to technologies, industry practices, regulatory requirements, or as we deem necessary. Any such revision will be effective immediately unless your Agreement states otherwise. You may request notifications of changes to this AUP via www.smartsheet.com/notification-requests.
