GONG API POLICY &
TERMS OF SERVICE

Gong Application Developer Policy

Last Updated:  May 24, 2024

Gong.io Inc. (“Gong”) is on a mission to unlock reality to help people and companies reach their full potential. One of our operating principles is to create “raving fans”. Applications are an important part of creating raving fans. We welcome application developers and are excited to see the amazing experiences you are building within Gong.

Developers are required to comply with this Policy and our Gong Developer Terms (below).

We aim to give guidance to Developers so that you understand which applications will be included in Gong Collective. To protect users and our services, we reserve the right to take any action we deem necessary if an Application violates this Policy or the Developer Terms.

Definitions: For terms not defined in this Policy, see the Developer Terms.

Use Restrictions.  You must not use the Gong developer account (“Account”) for any purpose other than for creating a software application, functionality, product, or service that you create for the purpose of interoperating with Gong’s products, APIs, or ecosystem (“Application”). You must only permit individuals who are essential and necessary to the development process to access the Account. Access of the Account by any other individuals or use of the Account for any other purposes is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of the Agreement. You have no independent rights to any Gong data or Gong intellectual property.

Developers are strictly prohibited from:

  • Using call and/or recording functionality in the Account unless directly necessary for developing or maintaining an Application;
  • Allowing Account access to more than six (6) Developers;
  • Using the Account to create a competing or similar product or service;
  • Collecting, storing, or using data without obtaining proper consent of the individuals or entities to whom the data relates;
  • Damaging Gong’s reputation or brand;
  • Renting, selling, or sharing data or information obtained under the Agreement with third parties under any circumstances, without obtaining proper consent of the individuals or entities to whom the data or information relates;
  • Ignoring a user’s request for data deletion from your Application;
  • Failing to notify users of your Application about their rights, privacy and data;
  • Transmitting data to Gong without consent of the individual to whom the data relates;
  • Using data in violation of applicable laws or regulations or your agreement with the end users of your Application;
  • Degrading or compromising Gong’s security protocols and controls;
  • Providing access to Gong in any fraudulent or unauthorized way, including circumventing Gong protocols and access controls; and
  • Including misleading and/or deceptive statements about the Application’s functionality and performance or the data’s origin or use.

If Gong reasonably believes you have violated any use restrictions, Gong may, without incurring any resulting obligation or liability, (a) suspend, terminate, or otherwise deny you or any other person’s access to or use of the Account, (b) deprovision any Applications connected to the Services, and (c) seek any remedies available to us. Breach of any use restrictions will constitute a material breach of the Agreement. You are solely responsible for the accuracy, quality and legality of your Application.

Privacy Notices:  You must maintain a user agreement and privacy policy for your Application, which is prominently identified or located where users download or access your Application and must be consented to prior to any user downloading or accessing your Application. Your Application must include a legally compliant, publicly available privacy policy that explains how your Application collects, uses, processes, and stores data, and what control users have over their data, in understandable and accurate terms. 

Security:  Protecting data is paramount at Gong and must be for you. You are responsible for implementing industry-best data practices and procedures that are designed to ensure the security, integrity, and confidentiality of data and to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access to or use of data.

Reporting a Security Incident: If there is a Data Breach, or data is otherwise exposed, exploited, or compromised through your Application or through your acts or omissions or those of your representatives, you must inform Gong immediately at security@gong.io. Further, you will, at your own cost, immediately begin remediation of the incident leading to the Data Breach and reasonably cooperate with Gong, including informing Gong in reasonable detail of the impact of the incident, specific Users and Customers affected by the incident, and corrective actions being taken, and keeping Gong updated about your compliance with any notification or other requirements under applicable laws. 

Relationship Between Parties. Gong and Developer agree that neither is the data processor of the other party, nor are the parties acting together as joint data controllers. Gong and Developer agree that no monetary or other valuable consideration is provided to either party in exchange for personal data and that data sharing conducted pursuant to the Agreement is directed by the relevant User or Gong Customer and does not constitute a sale or sharing of personal data.

Application Review: Gong reserves the right to request a business and/or Application review at any time.  You agree to actively cooperate in such review by providing all information reasonably requested by Gong in a timely manner. Additionally, you commit to provide timely updates to Gong regarding feature enhancements, core functionality changes and Application availability.

Data Breach means a breach of security associated with the Developer’s Application leading to the accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized use, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure of, or access to, the Account, Account data, Confidential Information, other data, or that might adversely affect the security of Gong’s Services.

Developer” or “You” means the individual or entity that is subject to these Terms by accessing, downloading or using any Gong Licensed Materials or Account or that creates an Application.

Gong’s License to You: Subject to your compliance with the Agreement, Gong grants you a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revokable, limited license, during the Term, to access Licensed Materials and the Account in accordance with the technical data and specifications set forth therein, only as necessary to develop, test, and support your Application. You may charge a fee to the end users of your Application; however, you may not sell, rent, lease, sublicense, redistribute, share or syndicate access to any Licensed Materials or the Account to any third party.

Restrictions on Licensed Rights: Your license to Licensed Materials and the Account is limited and subject to compliance with the Agreement.

You must not:

(A) access Licensed Materials or the Account in violation of any law or regulation;

(B) use Licensed Materials or the Account in any manner that (i) compromises, breaks or circumvents any technical processes or security measures associated with the Services, or (ii) poses a security vulnerability to Customers or Users of the Services;

(C) implement any undocumented feature of an API or SDK, or otherwise utilize the Licensed Materials or the Account other than for their documented intended purposes;

Developer Responsibilities. You are responsible for all activities that occur in your Account and for compliance with the Agreement.  You are also responsible for all activity your Application executes within the account of any User or Customer that has installed your Application.

Modifications to Licensed Materials: Gong is still evolving, and so we need the flexibility to occasionally make changes to the Licensed Materials, including backwards incompatible changes. It is your responsibility to review and comply with any updates to the Licensed Materials. We will try to give notice of these changes. Also, parts of our API are undocumented, including certain methods, events, and properties. Given that these undocumented aspects of our APIs may change at any time, you should not rely on their behaviors. You will ensure that prior to commercially releasing any Application, such Application is fully compatible with the most recent Licensed Materials.

Reporting Privacy Matters: You must promptly notify Gong in writing via email to privacy@gong.io of any breaches of your user agreement or privacy policy that impact or may impact Customers or Users. Please review our Privacy Policy which is incorporated herein by reference (available at https://gong.io/privacy-policy/) for more information on how Gong collects and uses data.

Gong’s Right to Suspend Access and Audit: If Gong believes that there is a violation of the Agreement that can simply be remedied by a modification or update to your Application, Gong will ask you to take corrective action. Gong may use your name, address and other contact details to contact you or provide this contact information to any third party that reasonably, in Gong’s sole determination, claims your Application has a negative impact on their rights. In some instances, Gong may directly step in if Gong believes there is a credible risk of harm to Gong, the Services, Customers or Users, or any third parties. Gong also reserves a right to audit your Application to ensure it does not violate Gong’s terms and policies and you must cooperate with any audit by Gong in a timely manner. 

Ownership and Proprietary Rights.

Reservation of Rights: You retain your ownership rights in your Application, and Gong owns and will continue to own its Licensed Materials and Services (including any modifications, enhancements, upgrades, updates, improvements, or derivatives of any of the foregoing), including all intellectual property rights relating thereto. All rights not expressly granted to you under the Agreement are hereby retained by Gong.

Feedback: You may from time to time submit comments, information, questions, data, ideas, descriptions of processes, or other information relating to the Services or Licensed Materials to Gong (“Feedback”). Gong may in connection with any of its products or services freely use, copy, disclose, license, distribute and exploit any Feedback in any manner without any obligation, royalty or restriction based on intellectual property rights or otherwise.
