Data Contributor Network: data contributors share information about their business contacts while using Apollo services (as described in our Terms of Service, described at https://www.apollo.io/terms, or other agreements).

How do we use artificial intelligence with your data?

In accordance with our AI Policy, Apollo leverages artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to enhance our services. We may use your business contact information as inputs to machine learning models to improve our platform's functionality, including automated email personalization, insight generation, and other sales and marketing features.
