Last Modified: April 11, 2024

Qorvo Inc. and all of its affiliates, subsidiaries, and related entities (listed here) ("Qorvo" or "we" or "us" or “our”) offers access to websites that it owns and operates (collectively and individually referred to as the "Website" herein) that link to this Privacy Notice (this "Notice" or “Privacy Notice”). The user of all such sites (“User” or “you” or “your”) is subject to the terms of this Notice and the Terms of Use. By using the site, you agree to all terms included therein. This site is only offered in exchange for the enforceability of the terms stated in this Privacy Notice, and everyone who agrees to use this site is a party to the contract formed by this Notice. This Notice explains our practices as they relate to your personal information, personally identifiable information, and personal data (“Personal Data”).

Any questions about privacy may be directed to us by emailing us at privacy@qorvo.com or submitting a request at https://www.qorvo.com/privacy-form. We will review all submissions, but we do not make any representation aside from a commitment to honor data privacy laws discussed below.

Personal Data We Collect

In the ordinary course of Qorvo’s business by operating the Website and the different parts thereof, we will collect certain information on Users of the Website that can be reasonably associated with them as natural persons (“Personal Data”). This Personal Data is typically provided by you or by the machine you operate to access the Website. Therefore, you have considerable control over what Personal Data you choose to provide to us in the ordinary use of the Website. Some features or parts of the Website may not function—or may not function to the standards Qorvo sets for its Website—if certain Personal Data is not collected and used. Additionally, some functions within Qorvo—such as consideration of job applicants—cannot be done appropriately without certain Personal Data. You always have the option to not use this Website or any part therein or to change your browser’s settings in a manner that stops the collection of certain information in order to avoid such collection and use of your Personal Data, but you agree that you do so with the knowledge that the consequence would be a reduction in the functionality of our Website and/or an inability by Qorvo to consider you for all opportunities.

We may also collect information on the commercial entity you work for or are operating on behalf of, and you understand and agree that such collection and any uses of such data that are not reasonably associated with you as a natural person are outside the scope of this Privacy Notice.

Data Collected

Through the Website, we principally collect Personal Data when you provide it to us. For example, we may collect your name, email address, employer, country of residence, and other information you choose to provide us through forms on the Website. Additionally, the machine you use may provide us with some information that could reasonably be considered Personal Data, such as your IP Address, general location information, device identification numbers, browser used, and more. We may also obtain information from other sources and combine that with information we collect on our Website. To the extent such information contains your personal information, we will treat it in accordance with this Policy.

This Privacy Notice and the Terms of Use constitute a contractual relationship between the User and Qorvo whereby we offer the User access to the proprietary Website or some part thereof in exchange for: 1) the opportunity to inform you about our products and services, 2) insights into those interested in our products and services, 3) the uses of Personal Data listed below, and 4) the terms listed in this Privacy Notice and the Terms of Use. As such, we do not permit those unable to enter into contracts from using the Website. Additionally, we collect certain Personal Data through the job application process, when users submit forms, and through cookies, all of which are discussed below.

What is more, we collect payment information on anyone who places orders through our Website. In the ordinary course of business, we typically sell our products to registered entities. To the extent the information we collect during the online sales process is both 1) reasonably related to you as a natural person and 2) considered business-to-business Personal Data not exempt from applicable data privacy laws, you consent to such business-to-business Personal Data being used in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

Additionally, if we interact with you as a result of your use of our website, for example by arranging a call after you use our website to get in touch with Qorvo’s sales team, we may record and collect any personal data associated with that interaction.

Persons Age 17 and Younger

This Website is not intended for children under 18 years of age or for persons unable to competently enter into a contract (collectively “Minors”). No Minors may provide any information to or on the Website. We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from Minors. If you are a Minor, do not use or provide any information on this Website or through any of its features, register on the Website or any part thereof, solicit information on making any purchases through the Website, use any of the interactive or public comment features of this Website, or provide any information about yourself to us in any way, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a Minor without verification of consent from a parent or legal guardian, we will delete that information. If you are a parent or legal guardian and you believe we might have any information from or about the Minor in your care, please contact us at privacy@qorvo.com and we will take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is deleted from our files.

Job Candidates

For job candidates applying through the Website, in addition to the above, we collect the following Personal Data from this website: identifiers (email address, legal name, preferred name etc.), mobile phone number, address, residency information, educational information, past employment information, salary expectations, citizenship information, immigration status, gender, racial and ethnic information, US veteran status, disability information, and any other information included in your Resume, Curriculum Vitae, or Cover Letter. You hereby consent to the use of this information

We may also receive your Personal Data from third party recruiting firms. In such cases, we rely on these third party recruiters to obtain any necessary consents to process your information for the purpose of considering you for employment. Data subject requests in these instances should be directed to those recruiters.

Additionally, if you are made a conditional offer of employment with Qorvo, we may need to verify your past employment and determine there is nothing in your background that could compromise your work with us. Therefore, you agree to reasonably cooperate with us—including, where needed, by providing consents to additional processing of your Personal Data by third parties—in arranging for background checks in our legitimate interest before the beginning of any employment relationship.

Lastly, we may receive certain information from LinkedIn if you choose to apply for positions with LinkedIn information.

California privacy law gives residents of California certain rights. These rights are established in California law (“CCPA”). All references to CCPA are inclusive of California consumer privacy laws coming into effect between the passing of CCPA and the Last Modified date above. California residents my exercise their privacy rights by calling toll-free to 833-458-0040 or by exercising any of the other methods listed in this document. The below discusses your rights with respect to your Personal Data:

Right to Know, to Correct, and Data Portability

The categories of personal information we collected about you.
The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.

If you believe the Personal Data we have is incorrect, you are entitled to ask us to correct the Personal Data.

Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will review your request to see if an exception allowing us to retain the information applies. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).
Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information's deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research's achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
Comply with a legal obligation.
Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Your Rights to Know or Delete

To exercise your rights to know or delete described above, please submit a request by either:

Emailing us at privacy@qorvo.com, calling 833-458-0040, or submitting a request at https://www.qorvo.com/privacy-form.

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a request to know or delete related to your personal information.

You may only submit a request to know twice within a 12-month period. Your request to know or delete must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

You do not need to create an account with us to submit a request to know or delete. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.

We will only use personal information provided in the request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make it.

Sales of Personal Data

California residents may opt out of the sale of their Personal Data. However, we do not "sell" your Personal Data as that term is defined by the CCPA and its implementing regulations.

Non-Discrimination Rights

California residents have the right to not be discriminated against for exercising their CCPA rights. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights. However, where Personal Data is necessary for a service and you exercise the Right to Delete as regards that Personal Data, services may be limited or unavailable.

European Union, Switzerland, and United Kingdom Residents

The European Union and certain non-EU governments in Europe, including Switzerland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland have passed privacy laws that give residents of those jurisdictions certain rights. The below discusses your rights with respect to your Personal Data:

The Right to Withdraw Consent

You have the right to withdraw your consent to this Privacy Notice at any time. Such withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before that withdrawal, and in no instance will affect processing based on the performance of a contract—including the Terms of Use—legitimate interest, or other lawful basis aside from consent.

The Right of Access and Data Portability

You have the right to request copies of your personal data, which includes the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you are being processed. Such copies will be in a portable and reasonably accessible electronic format.

The Right to Erasure

You have the right to request that we erase your Personal Data.

The Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate. You also have the right to request that we complete the information you believe is incomplete.

The Right to Object and Restrict Processing

You have the right to object to the processing of a part or all of your personal data at any time. When relating to processing for marketing purposes, you have an absolute right to object; while for other purposes, the existence of the right depends on what lawful basis the processing relies on and on the existence of our compelling legitimate grounds to continue the processing.

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your Personal Data, when: (a) you contest the accuracy of your personal data, for a period allowing us to verify the accuracy of said data; (b) if you believe personal data has been unlawfully processed and you wish to restrict processing rather than delete it; (c) we no longer need the personal data but you require to keep it in order to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim; or (d) you have exercised your right to object the processing (above) for a period allowing us to evaluate the claim.

Notification of Data Breaches

We will notify you in accordance with the pertinent laws in the event that there is any unlawful or otherwise unauthorized access to your Personal Data.
