Personal Information: Purpose, Collection, Use, and Sources

“Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, or describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or (in certain countries) household. This definition is intended to broadly include any other types of personal data that may be included by an applicable law. This may include, without limitation, information that identifies you or which could be used to identify you, such as your name, address, email address, phone number, or persistent device identifier.

We collect several categories of Personal Information from you, depending on the AMD product, service, or technology you use, including websites operated by AMD and its affiliates, social media pages, mobile applications, business communications platforms (e.g., Slack), and other online services (collectively, the “Sites”), or information you otherwise provide to us through our interactions online and offline. We may also collect Personal Information about you from others. We use Personal Information for typical business management, operational and commercial purposes (including to defend and protect us and others from harm or legal claims, and as required by applicable law), and as described more specifically below:

Online submissions: We collect Personal Information when you interact with us online, including:

  • Personal identifiers and professional and employment information. We collect personal identifiers (such as your name, phone number, email address, postal address, username, password, IP address and other online identifiers) and professional and employment information (such as your job title, company name, and information about your company and job function) to (i) respond to your requests, process and fulfill orders; (ii) register you for an AMD service, event, or program; (iii) facilitate surveys, administer promotions, campaigns, sweepstakes, and contests; (iv) perform Site functionality; (v) manage accounts and preferences; (vi) provide downloadable content and online training and events; (vii) respond to customer service requests; and (viii) communicate with you for marketing and informational purposes (subject to the ‘Direct Marketing’ section below). To register for some events in certain countries, AMD may collect date of birth and passport information directly from you if necessary to facilitate your attendance and provide services you request in connection with your attendance of AMD events. If you choose not to register on a Site, you may have limited functionality. For example, you may not be able to participate in forum discussions on a Site without registering.
  • Message and product review content. We collect the messages you submit through contact, customer service, sign-up, forum, survey, purchase and product review forms, and through the use of your account to use communications features on the Sites. We use this information to (i) respond to and fulfill your requests; (ii) better understand your preferences by cross referencing information provided by you through different channels and at different times, including by combining with other information that is publicly available or provided by third parties; and (iii) provide, enhance, and personalize our product, service, and technology offerings and the Sites. We may use automated analytics or AI-assisted tools to help analyze this information for the purposes described above. We may also use automated systems, such as chatbots or virtual assistants, to respond to your inquiries or provide information about our products and services. These systems process the information you submit in order to generate responses or route your request, and may operate using AI-assisted tools consistent with the purposes described above. Where automated systems are used, you may request to have your inquiry handled by a human representative where available.
  • Audio and visual information. We receive any digital photos you submit through the Sites and post them to public areas of the Sites (including our social media pages) at your direction. We may also record audio during customer service calls for quality assurance and training purposes.
  • Commercial transaction information. We collect and generate commercial transaction information (such as records of products and services purchased) when you make purchases or register products on a Site. We may use this information to deliver and fulfill your orders, refer you to distributors and partners to assist you with your requests, improve our product and service offerings, tailor our marketing efforts, and administer accounts.
  • Online training (including the AMD Arena Program), event and program information. We collect and generate registration and participation information related to online training and events, such as your results and leader board position. We may also collect personal identifiers and professional and employment information for employment verification to ensure you are eligible to participate in online training and redeem AMD reward points. We use the information to operate and administer the training and events.
  • Inferences from the information listed above. AMD will use the information listed above in addition to publicly available information and information provided by certain third parties (such as lead generators) to draw inferences about your preferences and interests (such as your preferred products), to help us provide you with personalized content and offers, and to help us provide, enhance, and personalize our product, service, and technology offerings and the Sites. These activities are used for personalization and marketing and are not intended to produce legal or similarly significant effects.
  • Job applications. We collect and use the Personal Information you submit through job applications and the careers Sites to consider you for employment and facilitate the communities and communications on the Sites. For additional information about AMD's privacy practices related to recruiting through its careers Sites, please review the privacy notice on those Sites.

Cross-Border Data Transfers

AMD is a global company based in the US (particularly California and Texas). As a result, much of the data we process is transferred to, accessed by or otherwise processed in the United States or other countries in which AMD operates. While AMD attempts to minimize and/or anonymize personal data as much as practicable and as long as it does not disrupt AMD’s otherwise legitimate purposes of processing, AMD may transfer your Personal Information outside your originating country. We do this to enable us to provide you with our products and services, for marketing purposes, for operational efficiency and for customer relationship management purposes. These transfers can take place within the AMD group of affiliates and subsidiaries but also to selected third parties (as explained in the ‘Disclosure of Information’ section of this Privacy Notice). Not all countries have laws offering the same level of protection for Personal Information as those where you are located when your Personal Information is received by AMD and some countries may have even greater protections. AMD takes reasonable steps to transfer Personal Information using measures consistent with the legal requirements applicable to the Personal Information. For example, AMD will safeguard Personal Information received from an individual located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) consistent with the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) when the Personal Information is stored in the EEA and transferred outside the EEA. Such transfers take place with appropriate contractual clauses and for other legitimate purposes. The same is true for transfers out of China and other countries that require standard contractual clauses. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU CONSENT TO THE CROSS-BORDER TRANSFER OF YOUR DATA THAT YOU PROVIDE TO AMD AND OTHERWISE CONSENT TO AMD POSSESSING.
