Publisher shall provide its Visitors with contact details (which may include making those details available through its Privacy Policy) so that they can contact Publisher to exercise their data protection rights (including in relation to Personal Data processed in connection with the Services). The foregoing obligations apply where the Publisher Properties attract Visitors in jurisdictions requiring consent mechanisms with respect to the Services.
  9. Not Legal Advice. During the Term, Taboola may provide recommended privacy policy or disclosure language to Publisher. Publisher acknowledges that it shall not rely on such recommended language as, or as a substitute for, legal advice and that Publisher or Company itself is solely responsible for any disclosures in its privacy policy or on its website.
  10. Data Collected. Publisher shall not provide or configure the Services to collect or otherwise disclose to Taboola any special categories of personal data or sensitive personal information or sensitive data (as defined under Applicable Data Protection Law) to Taboola for processing.

Annex B 

Security Measures

Description of the technical and organisational measures implemented by each party (including any relevant certifications) to ensure an appropriate level of security, taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, and the risks for the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

Measures of pseudonymisation and encryption of personal data

 

 Taboola collects only pseudonymized data, which means we do not know who you are because we do not know or process the user’s name, email address, or other identifiable data. User Information that we collect includes, but is not limited to, Information about a User’s device and operating system, IP address, the web pages accessed by Users within our Customers’ websites, the link that led a User to a Customer’s website, the dates and times a User accesses a Customers’ website and other web browsing data. The CookieID is anonymized using Bcrypt and IP address is truncated.
Measures for ensuring ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of processing systems and services

 

 Taboola uses multiple levels of electronic security (ex: endpoint security, server-side security, detections tracking, periodic penetration tests, and deep intelligence gathering to review post-mortem events).
Measures for ensuring the ability to restore the availability and access to personal data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident

 

 Taboola maintains 9 data centers operating around the world. Every data center is used as a replication of one another so if one falls down the data can be extracted from other data center.
Processes for regularly testing, assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational measures in order to ensure the security of the processing

 

 Taboola maintains strict processes for testing the effectives of its controls (both technical and organizational). We have system logging and monitoring in place, monthly (at least) DR testing, quarterly penetration tests, Firewalls protecting the web and honeypots spread across the network to find any malicious activity. Moreover, we have bounty program in place which helps us to constantly monitor our network.
Measures for user identification and authorisation

 

 Every user in Taboola is associated with a dedicated username and password. Every access to Taboola’s internal network is done with 2FA using Google authentication. Users are created only by the IT department, during the onboarding process and only after receiving all details and signed contract from the HR department.
Measures for the protection of data during transmission

 

 Taboola supports any data transmission through secure transmission protocols (HTTPS and TLS v1.2 at the minimum). Furthermore, systems which might contain PII are secured and data is kept hashed and anonymized.
Measures for the protection of data during storage

 

 Data that is stored within our databases is anonymized and hashed using Bcrypt. Access to the DB is minimized and based according to the ‘business need to know’ principle.
Measures for ensuring physical security of locations at which personal data are processed

 

 Each of Taboola’s global data centres (in US, Europe, and Asia), has all its servers located in locked cabinets that are maintained exclusively for Taboola’s use. These cabinets are maintained by companies that are either SOC2-certified or Taboola has reviewed their security measures. Further, any access to the servers requires written, logged permission. All Taboola offices are also controlled, and require employees to use access cards to enter. Furthermore, only a limited number of employees have access to Taboola’s servers and any access also requires written, logged permission.
Measures for ensuring events logging

 

 Taboola implements monitoring tools and logs are gathered to our SIEM system which alerts us on any suspicious event and also being monitored by NOC team.
Measures for ensuring system configuration, including default configuration

 

 Servers are scanned for both configuration drift and patch level. Reporting and/or alerting are set on both and relevant patch level is confirmed. New patches are distributed using Puppet. All technical reviews are managed through the R&D application and obtained through a formal process of review (QA) after coding and CI/CD processes are implemented as well.
Measures for internal IT and IT security governance and management

 

 Taboola is ISO 27001:2013 and 27701 certified. Taboola have an Information Security Policy in place which states that the Board of Directors and management of Taboola are committed to preserving the confidentiality, integrity and availability of all the physical and electronic information assets throughout their organisation. Taboola holds security trainings for all new employees, phishing trainings for all employees globally, and regular security trainings for all employees and also dedicate sessions for R&D groups.
Measures for certification/assurance of processes and products

 

 Quarterly / Semi-annual / yearly internal audit on multiple processes and systems to validate that Taboola is complying with its security goals and measures defined.
Measures for ensuring data minimisation

 

 Taboola intentionally limits the data that we collect as part of Taboola’s global data minimization principles of processing only the limited data needed for our specific business purposes. Furthermore, Taboola does not have the ability, nor any business need, to “reverse engineer” any of the data points used in our algorithm in order to provide our services. More specifically, the data points that Taboola collects are never indicative of a user’s identity — as Taboola does not collect or process information such as user’s name, phone number, email, or physical addresses. Instead, Taboola collects only pseudonymous identifiers, which merely identify characteristics about a user’s device. This includes IP addresses (which are truncated upon collection and can only identify the device’s general zip code location, but never a precise geolocation) and, in some limited instances, hashed email addresses (which are inherently irreversible and cannot be decrypted to reveal the original email address). Moreover, even when used collectively, the data that we collect can never produce an individual’s name, phone number, email, or physical address, and our engineers do not work in any way to accomplish this goal. Additionally, Taboola makes and records privacy impact assessments in an effort to minimize the privacy risks of our services, processes, and policies.
Measures for ensuring data quality

 

 The data is collected directly from the user and the user is given the opportunity to correct any data associated with their CookieID via the Taboola Subject Access Request Portal: https://accessrequest.taboola.com/access.
Measures for ensuring limited data retention

 

 We retain User Information, which is directly collected for purposes of serving ads, for at most thirteen (13) months from the User’s last interaction with our Services (often for a shorter period of time), after which time we de-identify the data by removing unique identifiers or aggregating the data. This process is done automatically.
Measures for ensuring accountability

 

 Taboola does multiple security audits and penetration testing (but not for all systems). Taboola also uses cloud providers that are ISO-certified and that comply with other cloud-relevant certifications for maintaining a server’s physical safeguards.
Measures for allowing data portability and ensuring erasure

 

 Taboola related to media disposal same for all kind of media as it might contain PII. Any media must be fully wiped before being reused or disposed. Any media disposal is documented. Employees are instructed to no print any paper which might contain personal information.
