We have built a lot of trust in each other, and we work hard to be worthy of it. The goal of our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work at dbt Labs is to make sure everyone has a sense of belonging and the support they need to succeed. *** ## Flexibility and accessibility As an international team, we design our remote work culture to be flexible across time zones. - **39%** of us are caregivers - **10%** of us have a disability - **100%** of us have unpredictable lives We don’t expect everyone to be at every meeting.

[See our open roles](https://www.getdbt.com/about-us/careers) | [See our leadership principles](#leadership-principles) *** ### We are a mission-driven company. We believe that profits are an important tool in the pursuit of our mission, but they are not the mission itself. ### We are more concerned with value creation than value capture. We will only succeed if we create value in the world. If we optimize for that first, commercial success will follow. ### Work done well is its own end. We do great work because it is an expression of who we are, a contribution of our unique talents and perspectives to a purpose larger than ourselves. Work done well creates ripples in the pond. ### We contribute to the knowledge loop. The highest goal of any human is to produce new knowledge that can subsequently be built upon by others. This is the process upon which every good thing in human society has been built. We participate in this most fundamental of human endeavors by thinking in public and defaulting to open source. ### Transparency always wins. There are countless examples of choices that we all have in our professional lives of just how honest we want to be. We choose to be completely honest, even when that is uncomfortable, or even when it would lead to short-term negative consequences. We believe that transparency is a north star, and that acting transparently is always in the long-term best interests of achieving our mission. ### We value diversity. People with different mindsets and experiences, working together, create better outcomes. This includes diversity of race and gender, as well as the diversity of academic backgrounds, socio-economic backgrounds, geographic backgrounds, ideologies, and interests. ### Users are our best advocates. We market our products and services by working with amazing humans, making them incredibly happy, and asking them to spread the word. We go above and beyond for our clients / users to invest in our future growth. ### We are humble. While we believe that we are building something exceptional, that knowledge does not make us feel proud, it makes us feel humble. It imbues us with a deep sense of responsibility towards our clients, coworkers, and the community at large. ### We work hard and go home. We are here to build something great—and we recognize the hard work and sacrifice that entails!—but work isn’t our entire identity. We are parents and children and siblings and friends and citizens and humans. These other identities matter to us! And to create space for them, we both accept the responsibility of creating our own individual boundaries and work to support the boundaries that others have set for themselves. ### We are human. We are human beings innovating in a shared service to a mission. We structure our compensation and benefits, work hours and location policies, work and management styles, and employee agreements to support this fundamental human-ness. We bring our whole selves to work, and we recognize that our identities extend beyond the work that we do. ### We believe in moving up the stack. We believe that all team members should seek to replace themselves on an ongoing basis by building processes, technology, and documentation that obviate their existing work. We have an abundance mindset: there is always more, and more valuable, work to do. Moving up the stack presents growth opportunities for both the individual and the team. ### We optimize for the long-term. While we pursue the mission with intense focus, we recognize that creating the change in the world that we wish to see will not happen overnight. We think, plan, and act for the long-term. ### Values are more important than success. We are not interested in success absent the values in this document. We have strongly held opinions on how a company should be built and these are non-negotiable. We do not believe that these opinions are an absolute truth, but they are an absolute truth for us. *** ## Our leadership principles Our values are special, and they’ve guided us since dbt Labs was Fishtown Analytics. They are our core beliefs, and demonstrate our character as a company. They influence our culture, and we expect every team member to demonstrate internally and externally. Our leadership principles are scoped for current and aspiring leaders. They articulate how we show up, as well as how we can be held accountable and hold others accountable. These principles should guide folks in how they make decisions and how they manage their teams. They are specific and actionable. They shape our leaders, team dynamics and strategic direction. ### We create remarkable experiences. Every touch point with dbt Labs should be remarkable—for customers, for community members, for employees, and for every other stakeholder of the business. Leaders are allergic to mediocrity, and hire and coach their teams to envision, identify, and create the remarkable. ### We are customer-obsessed. Leaders start with the customer and work backwards. They work vigorously to earn and keep customer trust. Although leaders pay attention to competitors, they obsess over customers. ### We drive results. Leaders deeply understand how value is created and relentlessly focus on it. Despite setbacks, changes, and challenges, leaders rise to the occasion and deliver outcomes for our customers and for the business. We solve problems, exceed expectations and amplify the impact of those around us. ### We are pleased, but not satisfied. While we are proud of what we’ve accomplished, leaders prefer to focus on how much more there is to do in service of our mission and our customers. We do not rest on our laurels. We push ourselves and each other to be better every day. ### We earn trust. Leaders know that trust is the single most valuable asset that any group of humans can have, and we know that building trust requires work. We do that work day-in, day-out, with our customers, our teams, and our peers. We are authentic, listen to be wrong, and live up to our commitments. ### We have a bias for action. Speed matters in business, and it is one of our strengths. Leaders help teams move quickly by setting pace, energy, and context and by making good decisions quickly. We take calculated risks while learning quickly from our failures. Leaders only slow down a decision when we are faced with a one-way-door. ### We are owners. Leaders never take off their owners hat. We act on behalf of our entire company, not just our own team. We spend the company’s money as if it were our own. We take ownership for both good and bad outcomes. We never sacrifice long term value for short term results. ### We are self-aware. Leaders need to have a clear understanding of their own skills, abilities, behaviors and areas for improvement. They recognize and compensate for their weaknesses, biases, and blind spots. They understand how their actions impact others. Leaders embrace challenging feedback as an opportunity to build self-awareness. ### We debate and decide. Leaders lean into debate and work to disconfirm our own beliefs. We find the most credible people who disagree with us and try to understand their reasoning. We support our fellow leaders by asking hard questions and disagreeing in public. Ultimately, leaders make decisions, at which point the organization as a whole commits to moving forwards. ### We have fun. Leaders know that humans only come together to produce remarkable results when there is a spark of fun. They work to inject fun—and their own idiosyncratic human selves!— into their work and their teams. *** ## Learn more about dbt Labs Explore more about who we are, what we build, and the impact our community is making. ### Latest news Get the latest news about dbt Labs with media mentions and press releases.

At minimum, include the expected month, though a tentative date is preferred. _ **Note:** This form does not replace creating the event on [Meetup.com](https://www.getdbt.com/) — see the following section for details._ [View all resources and templates](#resource-hub) *** ## Meetup.com Landing page **Your landing page sets the tone for your event. Publish early and publish complete. A clear, fully detailed page drives sign-ups and builds trust.** - **Publish early:** Post your landing page at least 3 weeks before the event. Please be sure to confirm your agenda and speakers before publishing (no TBD agenda items, please.) - **Add full speaker details:** Include name, title, company, and talk topic for each speaker. - **Follow the template:** Use the most recent [official landing page format](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1L7lyJrwdbgIzBfodOiK3xjnPWQN3deexxARtxMsJKdE/edit?tab=t.0).

Keep an eye on the #meetup-organizers-team Slack channel to stay up to date on new resources, event tips, and updates. ### Keep the vibe community-first Avoid pop-up banners or anything too branded. Focus on learning, sharing, and connection. ### Let attendees know what to expect Include topic descriptions alongside speaker names and titles to set expectations and draw interest. ### Check in before showtime Use the Meetup page to send a reminder and get a more accurate headcount—helps with food, space, and waitlist planning. ### Spotlight real stories The best talks come from practitioners sharing how they solved real problems with dbt. ### Make intros easy (and fun) Bring name tags, chat prompts, or even a community game like Bingo to break the ice and spark real conversations. ### Capture the moment Take photos (with consent), not just of speakers but of the whole room—community matters. ### Test your tech ahead of time Make sure slides, mics, and any screen sharing work before guests arrive—it saves stress and awkward silences. ### Find your next speaker Use the networking hour to discover potential speakers—many don’t realize their work is already talk-worthy. ### Encourage inclusive voices Actively invite women and underrepresented folks to speak—it makes for richer, more relevant discussions. *** 💬 **Still need help? **Reach out in the private meetup-organizers-team Slack channel to connect with others hosting meetups, ask questions, and stay in the loop with the latest updates. *** ## Resource Hub Save time with ready-made assets for every step of your event. ### Speaker & Promotion toolkit [Get dbt Meetup toolkit](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1VqV6C5v0_kvWvhS3EtlWjdvZBRHlXj6bcFfc8U1Ii_g/edit?usp=sharing) ### Presentation slides [Download presentation template](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/12Ieg_lSfT9F8__KtEExUHTmsaFR-FJD9UjCQykoHYcc/edit?usp=sharing) ### Meetup page template [Download Meetup description template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1L7lyJrwdbgIzBfodOiK3xjnPWQN3deexxARtxMsJKdE/edit?tab=t.0) ### Event announcement toolkit [View announcement toolkit](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nIa4pban0WEunn1P2Ope1H6UwmJh0nXCy-exctBXa7Y/edit?usp=sharing) ### dbt Meetup Bingo [Download Bingo template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zuQI0UgLWo6SA2WEY12TuLgdWTjDY6mAsCadE33PosI/edit?tab=t.0) ### Post-event Meetup.com 'Thank You' + Feedback template [Post-event Meetup.com 'Thank You' + Feedback template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rVSUC8R8gxAXRhHZVWVf3Q-WdfN-ie1NgTQ6L0KlG1Y/edit?usp=sharing) ### Post-event Slack template [View Slack template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ysWxXrDLCVjmDF3mI8GIuK2ZEix-dq_aWi34Burk5xg/edit?usp=sharing) ### Reimbursement template [Get invoice template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mbw75sOF1fzKWIYkeiDv71row8tI-HJlejcnOxaWCMY/edit?tab=t.0) ### dbt Logos / Branding [View dbt Meetup logos](https://www.getdbt.com/brand-guidelines) --- --- title: "How to host a dbt Meetup" url: "https://www.getdbt.com/community/dbt-meetups/overview" --- # Your city.

Meetups are locally organized, in-person events for folks working with data and building with dbt. Whether you’re deep in the weeds of your DAG or managing a growing team, these gatherings are for real conversations and connections. ![Austin, TX dbt Meetup, April 2025](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/4bc4d057137744c679e5874b5779399ab735292a-1600x1067.jpg) ### Local, consistent, community-led Each meetup happens in a specific city, **6–10 times per year**. They’re led by local champions who commit to running a consistent program for at least 12 months. ### Run by data people, for data people Meetups are **independently run** by local champions — either individuals or small teams — who take the lead on topics, speakers, venues, and promotion. dbt Labs offers support to help you get started, but **organizers drive the program end-to-end.** ### Hosted on the dbt Meetup network All dbt Meetups live on our official [dbt Meetup network](https://www.meetup.com/pro/dbt/) — where event pages are hosted, RSVPs are collected, and your local community gets discovered. ### Supported by dbt Labs You’re not on your own. Our Community Team helps you get started, provides event resources, and makes sure your meetup aligns with the [dbt Community Code of Conduct](https://www.getdbt.com/community/code-of-conduct/) and [vendor guidelines](https://docs.getdbt.com/community/resources/community-rules-of-the-road#vendor-expectations). *** ## Who runs dbt Meetups?

Learn about respectful engagement, messaging etiquette, and vendor expectations." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/community/rules-and-expectations" --- # Community rules and expectations *** People genuinely love this community. It's filled with smart, kind, and helpful people who share our commitment to elevating the analytics profession. We are committed to maintaining the spirit of this community, and have written these rules alongside its members to help everyone understand how to best participate. We appreciate your support in continuing to build a community we're all proud of. ## Expectations for all members ### Rule 1: Be respectful We want everyone in this community to have a fulfilling and positive experience. Therefore, this first rule is serious and straightforward; we simply will not tolerate disrespectful behavior of any kind. Everyone interacting on a dbt platform – including Slack, the forum, codebase, issue trackers, and mailing lists – is expected to follow the [Community Code of Conduct](https://docs.getdbt.com/community/resources/code-of-conduct). If you are unable to abide by the code of conduct set forth here, we encourage you not to participate in the community. ### Rule 2: Keep it in public spaces Unless you have someone's express permission to contact them directly, do not directly message other community members, whether on a dbt Community platform or other spaces like LinkedIn. ### Rule 3: Follow messaging etiquette In short: put effort into your question, use threads, post in the right channel, and do not seek extra attention by tagging individuals or double-posting. For more information, see our [guide on getting help](https://docs.getdbt.com/community/resources/getting-help). ### Rule 4: Do not solicit community members This community is built for data practitioners to discuss the work that they do, the ideas that they have, and the things that they are learning. It is decidedly not intended to be lead generation for vendors or recruiters. Vendors and recruiters are subject to additional rules to ensure this space remains welcoming to everyone. These requirements are detailed below and are enforced vigorously. ## Vendor expectations ### Who is a vendor? Vendors are generally individuals belonging to companies that are creating products or services primarily targeted at data professionals, but this title also includes recruiters, investors, open source maintainers (with or without a paid offering), consultants and freelancers. If in doubt, err on the side of caution. ### Rule 1: Identify yourself Include your company in your display name, e.g. "Alice (DataCo)". When joining a discussion about your product (after the waiting period below), be sure to note your business interests. ### Rule 2: Let others speak first If a community member asks a question about your product directly, or mentions that they have a problem that your product could help with, wait 1 business day before responding to allow other members to share their experiences and recommendations. ### Rule 3: Keep promotional content to specified spaces As a space for professional practice, the dbt Community is primarily a non-commercial space. However, as a service to community members who want to be able to keep up to date with the data industry, there are several areas available on the Community Slack for vendors to share promotional material: - #vendor-content - #events - Your product's #tools-* channel - Recruiters may also post in #jobs/#jobs-eu but may not solicit applications in DMs. The definition of "vendor content" can be blurry at the edges, and we defer to members' instincts in these scenarios. As a rule, if something is hosted on a site controlled by that company or its employees (including platforms like Substack and Medium), or contains a CTA such as signing up for a mailing list or trial account, it will likely be considered promotional. ## One more tip: Be yourself Speak in your own voice, and join in any or all of the conversations that interest you. Share your expertise as a data professional. Make a meme if you're so inclined. Get in a (friendly) debate. You are not limited to only your company's products and services, and making yourself known as a familiar face outside of commercial contexts is one of the most effective ways of building trust with the community. Put another way, [create more value than you capture](https://docs.getdbt.com/community/resources/code-of-conduct#create-more-value-than-you-capture). Because unaffiliated community members are able to share links in any channel, the most effective way to have your work reach a wider audience is to create things that are genuinely useful to the community.

If you are agreeing on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization, and every reference to “User” hereinafter shall be deemed to refer to such organization. The Effective Date hereof is the date of the first use or download of the Product by User. IF USER DOES NOT ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT, THEN USER MAY NOT USE THE PRODUCTS. #### 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms shall have the meanings defined herein. “**Documentation**” means the Product documentation made available by Provider on Provider’s website at docs.getdbt.com, as may be updated from time to time. “**End User**” means clients or other third parties authorized by the User who use the Products in connection with User’s products and/or services. **“Platform Feature**” means any dbt Platform feature, including those that utilize or access generative artificial intelligence and/or large language models, that is made available by Provider through the Products when an account is created for a User, as well as any updates thereto. Provider may determine, in its sole discretion, which features are Platform Features. #### 2. Provision of the Product; Ownership. 2.1 _License to Product_. Subject to User’s compliance with the Agreement, Provider grants User a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license for User to (i) download, install, run, and use the Products; and if applicable, (ii) redistribute the Products to third parties, observing the restrictions in Sections 3 and 4. 2.2 _IP Ownership._ This Agreement does not transfer to User any Provider or third party intellectual property rights. As between Provider and User, Provider owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Products (including any improvements, modifications, and enhancements thereto). All rights not expressly granted by Provider herein are reserved. 2.3 _Data Collection_. The Products may collect and send to Provider information about User and User’s use of the Products. Provider may use this information to enforce this Agreement and to provide, support, and improve the Products and Provider’s products and services. User may opt-out of certain information collection scenarios as described at [https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/local/dbt-networking-requirements](https://www.getdbt.com/). User can learn more about such data practices in Provider’s Privacy Policy at https://www.getdbt.com/cloud/privacy-policy. User’s use of the Products operates as User’s consent to these practices.

User Responsibilities; Restrictions. 3.1 _User Responsibilities_.

User understands and agrees that User and any End User must create an account with Provider using a verified email address to access and use the Platform Features. Such access and use will be governed by separate terms, and not by this Agreement. #### 4.

Upon Provider's request, User must facilitate in good faith Provider's reasonable requests for communication between Provider and End User(s), in such a manner that preserves the End User’s user experience for interacting with the Products. Without limiting the foregoing, User must not obstruct, block or introduce obstacles or delays that have the effect of hampering or interfering with (a) communication between Provider and End User, (b) User’s ability to view, access, or use the Products, the dbt Platform, and/or any Platform Features, or (c) the Products from sending telemetry data to Provider. User may not share, pool, or relay its own login credentials to any End User and is solely responsible for ensuring its redistribution complies with this Agreement and any applicable law. 4.2 _Provider Name_.

In addition, User’s access and use of any third party product or component in connection with the Products shall be subject solely to the corresponding third party’s license or terms, as applicable. To the extent any such terms for a specific third party component prohibit the limitations in this Agreement, such limitations will not apply to such component. Provider shall have no liability of any kind arising from or related to User’s (including its End Users’) access to, use of, or inability to use any third party product or component. #### 7. Limitation of Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PROVIDER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, RELIANCE, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OR LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ANTICIPATED GOODWILL, REVENUE, DATA OR DATA USE, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR NOT AND EVEN IF PROVIDER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF PROVIDER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED $10.00. #### 8. Miscellaneous. 8.1 _Trade Laws_. User agrees to comply with, and, if applicable, shall not permit End Users to access or use the Products in violation of international export controls and economic and trade sanctions laws and regulations (collectively, “**Trade Laws**”).

**答えはYESです。** GPT-4(2023年11月)とGPT-5.3 Codex・Sonnet 4.6(2026年2月/3月)で、同じ11問を各20回実行して比較しました。2年前は一貫性のなかった問題も含め、両手法ともに100%正解できる問題が増えています。 以下は、MetricFlowにとってエンティティホップが多すぎるかどうかで分類した内訳です: 注目すべき点は以下のとおりです: - **Text-to-SQLの正答率がほぼ倍増し、32.7%から64.5%へ向上しました。** 大幅な改善です。 - **Sonnet 4.6とGPT-5.3 Codexは両手法でほぼ同じ結果でした:** SLの正答率は同一、Text-to-SQLの全体正答率も同一(どちらも64.5%)。 - **Semantic Layerの対応範囲内の問題については、両モデルとも100%正解しています。** 以前は、データは正しいのにモデルが期待するディメンションを選ばないという誤答が1〜2件発生することがありましたが、今はそれもなくなりました。 - **2023年にSemantic Layerで回答できなかった問題は、追加モデリングなしには今も回答できません。** ただし、ここに大きな違いがあります。**Semantic Layerは「回答できない」と明示します。誤ったデータを返すことはありません。** Text-to-SQLは平然と誤った数値を返します。 これが本番環境で最も重要な違いです。Text-to-SQLでは、失敗は「もっともらしいが誤った回答」として現れます。Semantic Layerでは、失敗は「エラーメッセージ」として現れます。 取締役会資料、監査対応、社内KPIダッシュボードなど、精度が問われる場面ではこの差が決定的です。 ## 少しモデリングを加えるとどうなるか 一部の問題がSemantic Layer経由で回答できなかったのは、元のスキーマが[第三正規形](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_normal_form)で高度に正規化されており、[MetricFlow](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/build/about-metricflow)には多すぎるエンティティホップが必要だったためです。そこでひとつの問いを立てました。このギャップを埋めるために、最低限どれだけのモデリングが必要なのか? LLMに対して、11問すべてをSemantic Layer経由で回答できるようにするための最小限のdbtモデルを作成するよう指示しました。結果として、コードを一切書かずに、いくつかのテーブルを結合して対応するセマンティックモデルを含む[**3つの新しいモデル**](https://github.com/dbt-labs/semantic-layer-llm-benchmarking/commit/5dd5561)が作成されました。 変更をgitにプッシュするとSemantic Layerが自動的に更新され、ベンチマークを再実施しました。Text-to-SQLのテストでも、新しいテーブルと関係性を含むDDLコンテキストを更新しています。 結果は一目瞭然です。 たった3つのモデルを追加するだけで、Semantic Layerはベンチマークの全問に回答できるようになりました。また、Text-to-SQLの精度も向上し、**モデリングの改善が両方のアプローチに効果をもたらす**ことが改めて確認されました。 (GPT-5.2でも実施しましたが、結果は著しく弱く、Text-to-SQLの正答率はGPT-5.3 Codexの84.1%に対して68%にとどまりました。) ## **どちらを使うべきか** 答えはText-to-SQL対Semantic Layerという二択ではありません。用途に応じて両方を使うことです。 複数のテーブルが関わる場合(今回のベンチマークでは15テーブル)、Semantic Layerを使うことで決定論性が加わり、正答率が劇的に向上します。Semantic Layerが答えられる問題は正確に答え、答えられない場合はそう伝えます。誤ったデータを黙って返すことはありません。 Text-to-SQLはより柔軟で、データが存在する限りどんな質問にも対応できます。ただしその柔軟性には代償が伴います。もっともらしく、しかし誤った答えを返すことがあるのです。なお、生テーブルの上にモデリングを加えることで、両方のアプローチの精度が改善されました。 **私たちの考え方は以下のとおりです:** - **精度が重要な場面(取締役会資料、監査、OKR、KPI、週次レポートなど):** Semantic Layerを設定し、LLMを接続する。 - **アドホックな探索(一度きりの質問、データディスカバリー、プロトタイピングなど):** まずSemantic Layerで答えられるか試す。できなければ、軽微なモデリング変更でギャップを埋められるか検討する。それでも難しければ、できる限り多くのスキーマコンテキストを持たせてText-to-SQLで対応する。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/7d6835fe6a1cef6f36ec0e4f6efdebdbe8c778cd-1376x768.png) これはまさに、[dbt agent skills](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-agent-skills/blob/main/skills/dbt/skills/answering-natural-language-questions-with-dbt/SKILL.md)で推奨しているアプローチです。 ## 試してみる・データを詳しく見る フルベンチマークはオープンソースで、誰でも再現できます。元のノートブック+CSVの構成から、LLMとのやり取りに[Pydantic AI](https://ai.pydantic.dev/)、結果の保存にDuckDBを使ったPythonライブラリへと移行しました。 -

アナリティクスエンジニアリングの加速 アナリティクスエンジニアリングは、転換点を迎えました。人工知能はもはや「実験的な技術」ではありません——今や予算が組まれ、チームに根付き、日々のワークフローの中核を担っています。 コードの生み出し方、インサイトの届け方、インフラへの投資判断まで、あらゆる場面でAIの影響が及んでいます。かつて「試行錯誤」だったものが、今では「当たり前」になりました。 2026年、この分野を定義するのはAIがもたらす加速と、それが生み出すプレッシャーです。しかし同時に、データ品質・オーナーシップの明確化・ガバナンス規律といった、アナリティクスエンジニアリングが長年抱えてきた課題は、依然として解決されていません。 AIはアナリティクスチームの可能性を広げています。しかしその成果の信頼性を支えるのは、バリデーション・明確なオーナーシップ・強固なデータ管理という「仕組み」です。 2026年のレポートが示す現実:AIはアウトプットを加速させている。 しかし、それを支える信頼とガバナンスの整備は、追いついていない。 そして2026年のテーマは 「データチームは、品質と信頼を守りながら、スピードと生産性への期待に応え続けられるのか」です。 *** ### 主な調査結果 - コーディングのAI活用が当たり前に - 「信頼」と「スピード」が、新たな成功指標へ - ガバナンスへの懸念は、依然として高水準 - インフラコストが、予算の伸びを追い越している *** #### 2025年→2026年:何が変わったか 2025年から2026年への変化は、拡大よりも「定着」です。昨年急加速したものが、今や日常のワークフローとして根付いています。 この移行を定義する3つのパターンがあります。: **1. 加速 → 統合** AIを活用したコーディングは急速な採用フェーズを終え、今や標準的なワークフローとして定着。 **2. 実現 → 信頼性** アクセスの拡大から信頼性の強化へ。あいまいなオーナーシップなどの構造的課題は残るものの、信頼が明確な戦略的優先事項へ。 **3. スピード vs コスト → スピード vs 信頼** フォーマンスの定義が変わった。「いかに効率よく」から「速く動きながら、いかに信頼を維持するか」へ。 ##### 2025年は可能性。2026年は規律。 2026年版レポートは、AIがもたらす持続的な加速の中でデータチームがどのように動いているかを探ります。優先事項がどこで変化し、制約がどこに残り、そのシグナルがアナリティクスエンジニアリングの次のフェーズについて何を示しているか。その実態を捉えます。 *** ## ハイライト #### AI採用がアナリティクスエンジニアリングを再形成している **本レポートにおけるAIの定義** 本レポートでは、AIの活用を2つに分けて定義しています。 **AIを活用したコーディング:**実務担当者がアナリティクスコード(SQL、Python、YAML)、テスト、ドキュメントの作成・リファクタリングに使用するLLM。 **AI生成インサイト:** 自然言語プロンプトから生成される、ステークホルダー向けのアウトプット。 セクションの見出しで「AI」と表記する場合は両方を指し、分析セクションでは該当するレイヤーを明記しています。 #### AIがアナリティクスワークフローに定着している AIはもはやアナリティクスチームの「実験」ではなく、日常業務に組み込まれています。 72%がAIを活用したコーディングを開発プロセスの優先事項とし、リーダー層では77%以上が生産性向上のためにAIを重視しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/bc137c1d01a17406c99754b7947f2614db1244ab-1112x584.png) LLMの活用は今やアナリティクス開発ワークフローに組み込まれており、主にドラフトから本番までのサイクルタイムを短縮しています。 AIを活用したコーディングは戦略的な重点領域となっていますが、パイプライン全体への投資は依然として不均一です。 **72%がAIを活用したコーディングを優先する一方、テスト・オブザーバビリティ・品質管理を含むパイプライン管理へのAI活用を優先するのはわずか24%にとどまります。**チームはAIで「作る速度」を上げていますが、「守る仕組み」は同じペースで強化されていません。 これはコーディングとパイプライン作業の違いではありません。AIを活用したコーディングは、パイプライン開発の方向性にも影響を与えています。 この対比の本質は「加速」と「安定化」の差です: - **加速**:モデル・変換・ドキュメントをより速く生成する - **安定化**:パイプライン内のバリデーション・テスト・オブザーバビリティ・ガバナンスを強化する 現在、AIへの投資は安定化より加速に傾いています。 > > > — Kasey Mazza, Hubspot #### ガバナンスへのプレッシャーが高まっている AI採用が拡大するにつれ、ガバナンスへの備えが重要な課題として浮上しています。本セクションのデータが示すのは、加速するAI導入と、そのアウトプットを検証・管理するための仕組みとの間に、じわじわと広がるギャップです。 AIがアナリティクスチームのアウトプット量を増やすほど、懸念もその勢いに比例して膨らんでいます。2026年のガバナンスが直面する核心的な問い——バリデーション・テスト・監視の仕組みは、AI主導のアウトプットと同じスピードで成熟しているのか。 > > > — Bruno Lima, phData #### リスク認識は依然として高水準 AI採用が進むにつれ、それに伴うリスクへの認識も高まっています。 回答者の71%がハルシネーションや不正確なデータがステークホルダーに届くことを懸念しており、その強度は役割によって異なります。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/6ed1440bad8915dee2a8be22e07ed0c3fe8d78a2-1112x876.png) 実務担当者はリーダーよりも実装リスクを身近に感じており、LLMへの機密データの露出についてリーダーより7ポイント高い懸念を示しています。また、AIを活用した開発が品質に与える影響についても高い懸念を示しています。一方リーダーは、コンプライアンス・ドキュメント・ガバナンス準備の観点から課題を捉える傾向があります。 このパターンが示すのは、距離感の違いです。実務担当者は実行リスクを直接体験し、リーダーはガバナンス責任を構造的に捉えています。 AIの採用は2つの面で加速しています。AIを活用したコーディングによる開発スピードの向上と、AI生成インサイトによるステークホルダー向けアウトプットの拡大です。しかし、バリデーション・テスト・ガバナンスへの投資は同じペースで増えていません。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/ea89e37d5b7afc307b779a91432ee82082969e34-1112x798.png) アンバランスは明白です。AIを活用したコーディングの優先度など、AI加速の主要指標は70〜80%の範囲にあり、信頼も同様の戦略的重要性(83%)を持っています。一方、ガバナンス投資と基盤的なデータ課題は依然として不均一なままです。 **アウトプットのスケールが、安定化のスピードを上回っています。** > > > — James Waller, Lendable #### このことが意味するもの アナリティクスワークフロー全体でのLLM活用は、実験から実装へと移行しました。今日のAIの主な影響は業務上のもの——ドラフトから本番までのサイクルタイムを短縮し、コードや分析を速く届ける支援をしています。 AIは2つの次元でスケールしています。エンジニアリングAIを活用したコーディングによる開発スピードの向上の向上と、ステークホルダー向けアウトプットの拡大です。しかし、バリデーション・テスト・ガバナンスへの投資は同じペースで増えていません。デリバリーのスピードが上がり、AI生成インサイトがより多くのステークホルダーに届くにつれて、それを守るコントロールの成熟は遅れています。 **安定化なき加速は、リスクを複利で増やすだけ。** > > > — Bruno Lima, phData ## 「信頼」と「スピード」が最重要指標へ アナリティクスチームへのパフォーマンス期待が変わりつつあります。2026年、コストへのプレッシャーが残る中でも、信頼とスピードが最も重視される優先事項となっています。 データとデータチームへの信頼を重要とする割合は2025年の66%から83%へ、スピードは50%から71%へと急上昇。コスト削減は48%から53%とわずかな伸びにとどまりました。 信頼とスピードの重要性は他のどの指標よりも速く高まっており、単なるアウトプットではなく、速く届けられる信頼できるアウトプットへ、アナリティクスのパフォーマンスの定義が変化していることを示しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/22c23e541c23e04ecbb8fdbc4fe2013e05a475a7-1112x584.png) 2026年における「重要」「非常に重要」の回答の集中は、この変化を裏付けています。信頼は今や全指標の中で最も高い優先度を持ち、その前年比の伸びはスピードやコストよりも顕著です。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/be74a4b4d1533e9cd32a663e569d075e958aaf8b-1112x584.png) アナリティクスチームはかつて主にアウトプット量と効率で評価されていました。2026年、それだけでは足りません。AIを活用したコーディングとAI生成インサイトが届けるスピードと規模が増す中、求められるのは「速いインサイト」ではなく「ステークホルダーが頼れる速いインサイト」です。 コスト規律は依然として重要ですが、もはや最優先のパフォーマンス指標ではありません。スピードだけでは不十分で、組織はより速いデリバリーと結果への高い信頼を同時に求めています。この文脈において、成熟度とは加速下での信頼性。「精度・一貫性・信頼を維持しながら速く動く能力」によって定義されます。 #### このことが意味するもの スピードとコストは依然として重要ですが、信頼が今や両方の土台となっています。AI生成インサイトがステークホルダーに届くようになるにつれ、信頼性はアナリティクスのパフォーマンスを測る基準の一部となっています。組織はもはやアウトプットや効率を最優先に最適化するのではなく、スピードを保ちながらステークホルダーが頼れるインサイトを届けることを求められています。 > > > — Pooja Crahen, Okta ## 統合は改善、しかし信頼の課題は続く アナリティクスエンジニアリングのすべての課題が同じ方向に動いているわけではありません。運用上の摩擦は一部緩和されていますが、構造的な制約は残っています。 **「様々なソースからのデータ統合」を主要課題として挙げる割合は、2025年の35%から2026年の27%に低下しました。**かつて定義的な痛点だった技術的統合は、多くのチームにとって対処しやすくなってきています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/c4522b0f125909cd046e0eb40a3b7ef1f8d2b801-1112x584.png) 一方、他のシグナルは驚くほど一貫しています。データオーナーシップのあいまいさは依然として41%の課題であり、前年からほぼ変化がありません。データ品質の低さは組織全体で最も頻繁に報告される障壁であり続けています。 ステークホルダーのデータリテラシー不足は36%の回答者にとって障壁であり、昨年の39%からわずかに低下。信頼のギャップが技術システムを超えて組織のダイナミクスにまで及んでいることを示しています。 統合の課題は減少していますが、オーナーシップ・品質・リテラシーの制約は続いており、ボトルネックはインフラから責任へとシフトしています。 これらの課題に対する認識は役割によっても異なります。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/497ffb58e65d0f521cb4c05e9016cd922edf62a0-1112x930.png) ほとんどの課題認識は役割間で概ね一致していますが、日々の責任と監督の違いを反映して、一部の領域では差異が生じています。 注目すべきは、「ステークホルダーからのデータへの信頼不足」を主要課題として挙げるチームが減少(33%→24%)している一方で、信頼が戦略的優先事項として急上昇していることです。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/72a7bf5aac49357cbb9b18b169f850ecc4ce8a6a-1112x584.png) #### このことが意味するもの 技術的統合の改善は、より深い信頼の制約を解消していません。信頼を個別の運用上の問題として捉えるチームは減った一方で、戦略的な期待として捉えるチームが増えており、孤立した摩擦から構造的な責任へのシフトを示しています。 品質の維持・オーナーシップの明確化・ステークホルダーの整合という作業はなくなったわけではなく、基盤として定着しています。加速が増し信頼への期待が高まるにつれ、解決されていない品質・オーナーシップ・リテラシーのギャップはより大きな影響を持ちます。 アナリティクスエンジニアリングは実現する役割から管理する役割へと進化しており、インテリジェントシステムが単に速くではなく、信頼性を持ってスケールすることを確かにする責任を担っています。 > > > — Jeremy Chia, Soap Cycling Singapore ## 予算は増加傾向、インフラコストはそれ以上に アナリティクスエンジニアリングへの投資は続いていますが、成長は不均一です。 2026年、**36%の回答者がチーム予算の増加を報告**し、28%が変化なし、14%が減少、19%が自チームの予算状況を把握していません。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/b574bdb73ef11a1fc33e8a515714de48164bbe49-1112x584.png) 同時に、データウェアハウス・コンピューティングリソース・データ管理ソフトウェアなど、アナリティクスとAIインフラへの支出はより広く増加しています。 ウェアハウスとコンピューティングの費用は57%が増加を報告し、減少を報告したのはわずか13%。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/1635a3737dac0fbd1424a46a7657fefa21cdcec2-1112x584.png) 予算の増加とインフラの増加は連動していません。ウェアハウスとコンピューティングの費用増加を報告するチームの方が、予算拡大を報告するチームより多くなっています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/d0caf105dc43dd28518d18ca9ab11eced65fc3d8-1112x546.png) 直近1年間の回答分布を見れば、その差は一目瞭然です。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/b18bff801c7930b16a3766421f3aca24e260ce36-1112x764.png) 予算とインフラ支出の両方が増加しているチームが多い一方、ウェアハウスとコンピューティングの支出はより高い成長帯に集中しており、拡大のペースが不均一であることを示しています。 インフラコストが全体予算を上回るペースで増加すると、チームは持続的な財務的プレッシャーの下で動くことになります。 ワークロードとデータ消費が拡大するにつれ、コンピューティングの需要もそれに伴って増加します。コスト最適化は縮小のサインではなく、スケールを維持するための必然的な対応です。 *** ### 今後の投資優先事項 リーダー層は今後12ヶ月でデータツールへの投資を増やすことを優先する傾向にあります。予算の拡大とともに、長期的なチーム能力の強化を重視していることが表れています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/b63db40ed4083afdd049f6e87a7dfc7b3e9d7e3b-1112x584.png) この違いは役割の責任を反映しています。リーダーは通常、長期的な投資計画とプラットフォーム能力に注目し、実務担当者は日々の実行と運用上の制約により密接に結びついています。 #### このことが意味するもの 3分の1以上のチームが予算増加を報告している一方で、より多くのチームがウェアハウスとコンピューティングの支出増加を報告しています。AI主導のワークロードが拡大するにつれ、インフラの需要がその投資の多くを吸収しています。これはアナリティクスチームへの財務的プレッシャーを高め、投資の意思決定をより重要なものにしています。 管理を維持するため、チームはインクリメンタル処理・クエリ最適化・コスト可視化を優先しています。効率化はもはや任意ではなく、スケールでの成長を持続させるために不可欠です。 コスト最適化は、増加するワークロード強度の下でスケールを維持しようとするチームにとって優先事項であり続けます。2026年の財務規律とは、単なる削減ではなく、成長が持続可能であることを確かにすることです。 ## アーキテクチャへの関心はある、採用はまだこれから モダンデータ基盤への関心は高まっていますが、本番での本格採用はまだ限定的です。 オープンテーブルフォーマットやマルチエンジン対応への関心が、複雑なデータ環境を持つ組織の間で戦略的な話題として浮上しています。今年の調査に含まれたApache Icebergは、その動きを示す早期シグナルのひとつです。 2026年、本番環境でIcebergを使用しているのはわずか9%で、6%が採用を計画中、12%がPoCの段階にあります。合計で27%が何らかの関与を報告している一方、68%は現在計画がないと回答しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/8d4d0a9add2f0442d869be005bcdb04a8002b0c0-1112x584.png) Icebergを評価または採用しているチームの中では、いくつかの動機が関心を促しています。最も多く挙げられたのはマルチエンジン互換性(22%)で、次いで柔軟性とパフォーマンスへの考慮が続いています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/d7a6f5665c3ba865278b1e37d9ecf381b0a8e723-1112x778.png) 一方、Icebergを評価中の組織からは、採用を慎重にさせる懸念も聞かれます。最も多く挙げられたのは、知識・ノウハウの不足(27%)とユースケースが明確でない(27%)の2点です。コンセプト自体への抵抗ではなく、実装の複雑さに向き合っている段階と言えます。 マルチエンジン対応や相互運用性は、戦略的な優先事項として注目度が高まっています。ただし、ほとんどのチームはまだ評価・初期採用の段階にあります。アーキテクチャの議論は2026年の戦略テーブルに上がり始めていますが、日常の運用を変えるにはまだ至っていません。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/aaffd0ee549505650b53f4213598d13780e069f1-1112x778.png) #### このことが意味するもの Icebergを検討しているチームは全体の4分の1を超える一方で、実際に本番環境へ導入しているのは10チームに1チームもありません。オープンテーブルフォーマットやマルチエンジン間の相互運用性への関心は高まっているものの、ほとんどの組織は依然として評価や実験の段階に留まっており、アーキテクチャの全面的な移行には至っていないのが現状です。 調査データからは、Icebergが「差し迫った運用の切り替え」ではなく、「戦略的で先見性のある投資」と見なされていることが伺えます。高い関心は長期的な計画や将来を見据えた姿勢の表れである一方、本番導入が限定的なのは、大規模なコミットの前に、技術の成熟度やツール群の整備状況、そして社内の対応能力を慎重に見極めているためでしょう。 2026年においてアーキテクチャは重要なテーマではあるものの、日常の運用を左右する主要因にはまだなっていません。 *** ## 次のステージへ ー 加速の時代における信頼のスケール化 2026年の調査が示す現実は明確です。**AIはガバナンスの成熟が追いつくよりも速く、アウトプットを拡大しています。** 2026年の現場では、加速と制約が同時に起きています: - AIを活用したコーディングが開発ワークフローに定着 - AI生成インサイトが増大するスピードと規模でステークホルダーに届いている - インフラの需要が高まっている - 信頼への期待が強まっている - データ品質・オーナーシップのあいまいさ・ガバナンスのギャップが続いている **その結果、アナリティクスエンジニアリングには新たな責任が生まれています。それは、AI生成インサイトが、既存の信頼のギャップをさらに広げないよう守ること。**そしてこの環境で差をつけるのは、アウトプットの量ではなく信頼性です。スケールしながら、監視のもとで、明確なガバナンスとともに。 AIの次のフェーズは「生成」から「実行」へと移ります。システムが自律的にワークフローを動かし、アウトプットを検証し、人手をかけずにツール間を横断するようになります。品質管理・レビュー・ガバナンスがこの変化に追いつかなければ、自律性は問題を解決するのではなく、複雑さを増やすだけになります。**規律こそが、自律性の前提条件です。** **アナリティクスエンジニアリングはますます、責任によって定義される分野になっています ー **アウトプットとともに、信頼もスケールさせる能力です。新しいことができるようになるほど、その広がりを決めるのは信頼です。次のフェーズで成功する組織は、信頼をインフラとして扱い、ガバナンス・データ品質・日々の運用に組み込んでいます。 **2026年、強いチームの共通点は規律。** > > > — Pip Sidaway, nib *** ## 調査方法 dbt Labsは2025年12月5日から2026年2月1日にかけて、様々な業界・地域のデータ実務者とリーダー363名から回答を収集しました。回答者の73%が実務担当者、27%が管理職または幹部職です。 結果は[2025年版レポート](https://www.getdbt.com/resources/state-of-analytics-engineering-2025)と比較し、前年からの変化を把握しています。 パーセンテージは各選択肢を選んだ回答者の割合を示しています。複数選択の質問では合計が100%を超える場合があります。一部のチャートでは非回答を除外していますが、割合は常に総回答者数をベースに計算しています。数値は読みやすさのために整数に丸めているため、合計が1ポイント前後する場合があります。 2026年の回答者層は業界・報酬・役割において2025年と概ね同様です。中堅~シニアレベルの経験豊富なプロフェッショナルが多く、実務・戦略の両面での意思決定者の声を反映しています。 ### 調査回答者プロフィール アナリティクスエンジニアリングは業界・地域を問わず広がり続けています。 回答者はテクノロジー・金融・ヘルスケア・小売など多様な業界にわたっており、コンプライアンスやデータの信頼性が重要な分野での参加も目立ちます。テクノロジー業界が引き続き最多を占めており、規制の厳しい業界での参加増加は、エンタープライズ環境でのアナリティクスエンジニアリングの重要性の高まりを示しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/1f5eacf50caa61224afbf8c7a9dcbe3606e01e55-1112x690.png) 参加者は北米とヨーロッパに集中しており、成熟したデータエコシステムの存在を反映しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/03cc95a9b58b7037481cda62dbfab1cd96cefca3-1112x560.png) アナリティクスエンジニア・データエンジニア・アナリスト・データサイエンティストが引き続き中心的な職種を構成しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/24d4efe7b38d8bee2ad099251b72e7291c5f4a2f-1112x586.png) この分野は実務担当者主導です。73%が実務担当者、27%が管理職・幹部職として勤務しています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/cd185389bd5166516f4c6e4779ca4fd297ef3517-1112x584.png) 報酬面では、北米の実務担当者の80%以上が年収10万ドル以上を報告しており、アナリティクス人材への継続的な需要がうかがえます。マネージャーレベルの報酬は特に北米で高い帯に集中しており、ヨーロッパでは地域差が残っています。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/1c549d550676cee9364ce6b9391d45fe8f079a25-1112x544.png) ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/8f2a19b8816072386a66f7b422363b3e3085a73e-1112x584.png) AIの活用が進み期待値が高まる中でも、アナリティクスエンジニアリングの日々の仕事はデータのメンテナンスと整理が中心です。 多くの回答者が、業務時間の大半をデータセットの維持・整理に充てていると回答しています。加速がワークフローを変えつつも、こうした基盤的なデータ作業は依然として欠かせません。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/6d5f3863c489cb5907d55d13da7c7bba1aa79e1c-1112x584.png) #### このことが意味するもの 2026年のアナリティクスエンジニアリングは、実務担当者が中心となり、エンタープライズに深く組み込まれ、スケールで動いています。AIの活用が加速し期待が高まる中、このコミュニティはイノベーションと運用上の責任を両立させながら、その戦略的な役割を広げています。 #### そして最後に… LLMやガバナンスフレームワークが語られる時代になっても、永遠に続く議論はあります。 ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/4b5ab26bcfcc9fa329a47646883e00459240ae9e-1112x524.png) データが示すのは、データガバナンスの合意はランチの注文より簡単かもしれない、ということです。 意見が真っ二つに割れる質問もありました。: 飛行機の座席を倒す行為は許容されるべきだと思いますか? ![Image](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/7a0ce937e3af133a866fd9eb143f83809411a68a-1114x526.png) 意見は真っ向から分かれており、共通認識は見られません。ガバナンスのあり方は、たとえ抽象的な議論の段階であっても、蓋を開けてみれば千差万別であることが分かります。 すべてのダッシュボードとパイプラインの背後には、ともに複雑さに向き合うコミュニティがあります。2026年が証明するのは——アナリティクスエンジニアリングの未来を定義するのはツールではなく、いつ信頼し、いつ検証すべきかを知っている人々だということです。 #### **2026年 アナリティクスエンジニアリング最新動向ウェビナーのご案内** AIがスピードを加速させる一方で、データの信頼性とガバナンスへのプレッシャーも高まっています。あなたのチームは、このバランスをどうとりますか? データ・アナリティクスの第一線で活躍する3名のエキスパートが、レポートの知見をもとに現場のリアルを語ります。 [レポートの深掘りウェビナーに参加する →](https://www.getdbt.com/jp/resources/webinars/2026-state-of-analytics-engineering-virtual-event-japan) --- --- title: "Stay up-to-date" description: "Join the dbt Labs newsletter to receive the latest insights, product updates, and best practices in analytics engineering directly to your inbox." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/learn/newsletter" --- ##

Our product and engineering teams are working with a number of these AI Technologies today, looking for ways to make data transformation more accessible and efficient. We know that we can only succeed in our mission if our users trust us to build and release features that use these AI Technologies safely and we see transparency as our North Star, so in that vein we want to share with you our intentions and principles for leveraging AI Technologies in our platform including your ability to control the use of these technologies for your account. For clarity, our platform means dbt Cloud and not customer support, documentation search, or internal tooling that we may use ourselves. ### A Note About “Data” Our [Terms of Use](https://www.getdbt.com/terms-of-use) define two categories of “data” and understanding them is important for knowing how we intend to leverage AI Technologies. The first category is “Client Data” which includes materials, information, or content that users share or input into dbt Cloud. This category can include your queries, column names, table names, lineage, data previews, and any table data. We treat this data as confidential and we protect it as if it were our own sensitive data. We will only use Client Data to provide services to the specific client that uploaded that data. The second category is “Platform Data” which includes data generated by dbt Cloud in the service of processing user requests. These may be SQL commands that don’t include any specific data from a customer table or performance metrics, system logs, or anonymized usage statistics. This data is not confidential between us and may be used for purposes of improving our platform and the user experience for all dbt Cloud users. When using dbt Cloud to run transformations, the data from your data warehouse remains in your data warehouse. We utilize AES-256 for all data encrypted at rest and TLS 1.2+ for data in transit. For more information about our general security practices and our practices specific to data processing, please see our [Security page](https://www.getdbt.com/security). ### AI Partners and Engines The first features we are releasing that leverage AI Technologies are powered by third-party large language model providers. Where we contract with a third-party provider for these services, we do not allow them to use any of our client data or platform data to train their models. In addition, we require that any data sent to a third-party provider, including prompts that we write and data that you supply, may only be retained for a short period of time in their systems. ### **Model training** We may use your Client Data to train our AI models to improve your experience with the platform and not for the benefit of other users. We will not allow your Client Data to be used to train third-party provider models. We do not currently use Client Data for any internal model training, but if we introduce those features in the future, we will provide a disclosure to you through the dbt Cloud application or direct communications before enabling the features and allow you to opt-out of using our AI features. We may use Platform Data to train internal AI models to improve the platform generally. This data will be de-identified and aggregated before being used for model training. We see this data as providing opportunities to improve our overall platform performance. We do not currently use Platform Data for any internal model training, but should we introduce those features in the future, we will inform you. You will not have an ability to opt-out of this type of training. ### **AI Account Settings** Account administrators can control the use of AI Technologies in our platform for account users and model training via toggles on the account settings screen. If an account chooses to opt-out of AI features, the UI elements for those features will still be visible but interaction with elements will result in a message to the user that the feature is not available in their account and they should engage with an account administrator to enable it. Administrators can change the AI account settings at anytime. These settings control: - **Access to AI features** - AI features are set to “opt-in” by default for all accounts in all plans unless we have a prior agreement with you to disable these features in your account. - Enabling the AI features is an all-or-nothing option. That is, you cannot choose to opt-out of certain AI features and opt-in to others. - **Model training** - We will never allow third-party providers to train their models using either your Client Data or our Platform Data. For internal models, because we do not currently do any training of internal models, there are no options yet. If we do release a feature that uses Client Data to train models, there will be an option to opt-out of training available to account administrators. ![AI Cloud settings in dbt Cloud](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/wl0ndo6t/main/7cc7ef5a8143a9d393ff11b8cacacb94378e2a98-1832x874.jpg) Enterprise customer agreements that are governed by MSAs are more complex and may include specific requirements related to these features. Some customers may have stringent regulatory or compliance requirements related to their data and would prefer to opt-out. If your agreements with us specify that your account should be opted-out of AI features, we will administratively opt the account out. An account administrator can opt-in at any time. ### Future Features We may release new AI features that are sold as an add-on to the base dbt Cloud platform. If we do this, the principles above will still apply and your Client Data will be treated confidentially and only used to train models for your specific use. We will be clear and transparent about the behavior of these features as they are released. --- --- title: "Legal - Certification Terms" description: "Review the terms for dbt certification, including eligibility, exam rules, confidentiality, and use of credentials." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/legal/certification-terms" --- # dbt Certification Program Terms and Conditions *** _Last updated: May 25, 2022_ These dbt Certification Program Terms and Conditions (this “**Agreement**”) are entered into between you (“**you**”) and dbt Labs, Inc.

(“**dbt Labs**”) uses a Consumption Commit Add-on Product (as defined below) and as described more fully in your agreement, Order Form and/or similar agreements with dbt Labs (“**Agreement**”). **1. Definitions** Any capitalized terms not defined herein will have the meanings given to them in the Agreement or, if not defined in the Agreement, in the Terms of Service located at [https://www.getdbt.com/terms-of-service](https://www.getdbt.com/terms-of-service) (or such successor URL as may be designated by dbt Labs). “**Arrears**” means the period of continued use of Consumption Commit Add-on Products on an Upfront Commit Plan after the Consumption Pool has been depleted. “**Billing Period**” means a calendar month running from the first to the last day of the month. “**BYOK**” (Bring Your Own Key) means Customer’s use of a Consumption Commit Add-on Product with Customer’s own AI model provider credentials. “**Committed Use Discount**” means the discount that may be provided to Customer in its applicable Order Form, in exchange for Customer’s commitment to spend certain amounts on an Upfront Commit Plan. “**Consumption Commit Add-on Product**” means those dbt Labs products identified in this Table, as updated from time to time, that Customer accesses and uses on a consumption basis, whether by purchase or under a trial. “**Consumption Pool**” means the total dollar amount of the prepaid, fungible consumption pool that Customer purchases via its Order Form that draws down as Customer uses the Consumption Commit Add-on Products on an Upfront Commit Plan. “**Monthly Spend**” means the aggregate dollar amount consumed each Billing Period from the Consumption Pool based on actual use of any Consumption Commit Add-on Product(s). “**Monthly Plan**” means a plan where Customer is billed for the costs incurred during the prior Billing Period. “**Upfront Commit Plan**” means a subscription‑based plan which requires an upfront one-time purchase of a Consumption Pool. **2. Consumption** 2.1 _Upfront Commit Plans_**.** Customer’s use of the Consumption Commit Add-on Product(s) on an Upfront Commit Plan will be drawn down from Customer’s Consumption Pool as specified in the applicable attached Appendix for the relevant Consumption Commit Add-on Product. If Customer has multiple Accounts on a single Upfront Commit Plan, Customer’s Consumption Pool may be applied toward any of the Accounts. When Customer’s Consumption Pool is depleted but Customer continues to use the Consumption Commit Add-on Products, dbt Labs will notify Customer it is entering Arrears and Customer will have the option to purchase additional Consumption Pools. If Customer is in Arrears, Customer will be billed monthly based on its Monthly Spend. Customer may continue using the Consumption Commit Add-on Products in Arrears so long as Customer is in compliance with this Table and the Agreement, including all payment obligations thereto. 2.2 _Monthly Plans**. **_Customer will be billed for its Monthly Spend incurred on any Consumption Commit Add-on Product(s) used during the prior Billing Period. **3. Changes, Updates and Future Consumption Commit Add-on Products. **dbt Labs may update this Table from time to time. If we do make updates, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this Table. Unless the Agreement supersedes this Table, any updates will become effective for Customer upon renewal or entry into a new Order Form after the updated version of this Table goes into effect. If we make a material update, we will use reasonable efforts to alert Customer through the dbt platform dashboard or via email prior to the update taking effect. For clarity, any updates that are required by applicable law or related to a new feature or product release will be effective upon notice to Customer and, following such notice, Customer’s continued use of the future feature or product on or after the Effective Date thereof, constitutes Customer’s acceptance of the updated version. **4. Conflict. **In the event of any conflict between this Table and the Agreement, this Table will prevail with respect to the subject matter described herein. **Appendix A: dbt State Consumption Rate Table** _Effective July 1, 2026_ This dbt State Consumption Rate Table (“**Appendix A**”) governs Customer’s consumption of dbt State. _Definitions:_ "**Daily Active Target Table**" or "**DATT**" means the number of distinct Target Tables for which dbt State performs at least one of the following unique operations on a given day (based on UTC time): a skip, clone, or test reuse. All reuses of the same active Target Table in a single day (based on UTC time) are counted as a single DATT. "**Target Table**" means a database object managed by Customer’s dbt project for a given database and schema name, including seeds, snapshots, dbt models (including incremental models), and each distinct test (even if the tests are not built into the database because store_failures is disabled), where dbt State is able to reuse the Target Table based on Customer’s configuration rules. (For example, if stg_customers has not_null and unique tests on its id column, there are three Target Tables: the model and its two tests). _Description:_ dbt State is billed at a list rate of $0.094 per DATT (the "**DATT Rate**"), unless a Committed Use Discount or other discount is reflected on Customer's Order Form. Monthly Spend is calculated by summing the total number of DATT attributable to Customer's use of dbt State across Customer's Account(s), and multiplying it by the DATT Rate. For Customers on an Upfront Commit Plan, Monthly Spend will be applied against Customer's Consumption Pool. During any period in which Customer is in Arrears, Customer's continued use of dbt State remains subject to the DATT Rate, unless a Committed Use Discount is reflected on Customer’s Order Form. If a discount is reflected, the Committed Use Discount will apply to the DATT Rate for the first two (2) Billing Periods in Arrears. Beginning with the third (3rd) Billing Period in Arrears, any Committed Use Discount will no longer apply, and use of dbt State will be billed at the full DATT Rate. **Appendix B: dbt Wizard Consumption Rate Table** _Effective August 25, 2026_ This dbt Wizard Consumption Rate Table (“**Appendix B**”) governs Customer’s consumption of dbt Wizard. _Definitions:_ “**Consumption Unit**” means the common unit of 1 (one) million Tokens into which usage of each Consumption Commit Add-on Product is converted and then billed to Customer. “**Managed AI**” means the AI models that dbt Labs makes available and manages on Customer’s behalf for Customer’s use of a Consumption Commit Add-on Product (as opposed to BYOK). “**Model Provider**” means a third‑party provider of AI models made available through Managed AI, including cloud‑hosted equivalents. “**Token**” means the unit of AI model usage (e.g., input and output tokens) used to meter Managed AI usage of dbt Wizard. _Description:_ dbt Wizard allows Customers to access multiple third-party AI models provided by Model Providers. dbt Labs does not own or operate the third-party AI models accessed via dbt Wizard, and does not control the availability, pricing, performance, or outputs of such models. Context-window limits may apply to the supported third-party AI models. Where Customer uses dbt Wizard with Managed AI, usage is measured per the model and Token type and billed at the Model Provider’s rates set out in the Model Provider rates dashboard at [https://www.getdbt.com/legal/dbt-wizard-token-costs-by-model](https://www.getdbt.com/legal/dbt-wizard-token-costs-by-model) (“**Model Provider Rate Table**”). Committed Use Discounts do not apply to the Model Provider Rate Table. If Customer uses dbt Wizard via BYOK, the Model Provider Rate Table does not apply and Customer’s AI model usage via dbt Wizard will be billed by Customer’s chosen Model Provider directly. If Customer uses dbt Wizard under an Upfront Commit Plan, Customer’s usage is metered pursuant to the Model Provider Rate Table then converted into a Consumption Unit which draws down from the Customer’s Consumption Pool. For Customers under a Monthly Plan, dbt Labs may make dbt Wizard available for trial use, subject to a one‑time trial credit pool (the “**Trial Credits**”). The Trial Credits are available solely for Customer’s trial use of dbt Wizard. Once Trial Credits is depleted, Customer’s continued use of dbt Wizard requires purchase of dbt Wizard as a Consumption Add-On Product pursuant to the Table. For Customers under an Upfront Commit Plan, dbt Labs may make available a free, recurring pool of consumption credits, allotments, or promotions (“**Free Credits**”) that the Customer may use toward dbt Wizard. Once Free Credits have been depleted during the relevant Billing Period, Customer’s continued use of dbt Wizard will draw down from Customer’s Consumption Pool. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary within the Table, dbt may update this Appendix and the Model Provider Rate Table from time to time, including to add, remove, or change third-party models, update or reflect changes to the Model Provider’s rates, or to change Managed AI pricing for dbt Wizard. With the exception of updates to the Model Provider Rate Table that reflect Model Providers’ rate changes, if dbt Labs makes an update to dbt Wizard’s Managed AI pricing, dbt Labs will provide Customer 30 days’ written notice prior to the update taking effect, and Customer’s continued use of dbt Wizard via Managed AI on or after the effective date thereof constitutes Customer’s acceptance of the updated pricing. --- --- title: "dbt Licensing - Public FAQs" description: "Explore dbt Labs’ licensing for dbt Core and Fusion. Learn about the Apache 2.0 licenses, the dbt Product Licensing Agreement, and usage guidelines." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/licenses-faq" --- ## dbt Licensing FAQ The goal of this document is to give maximal clarity under the permitted use of various codebases and products maintained by dbt Labs. If you have any questions please reach out to license@dbtlabs.com. ### Change history #### May 28, 2025 - Posted original FAQ. #### June 1, 2026 - Removed ELv2 references, because the dbt-fusion repository has moved to the dbt-core repository and been relicensed as Apache 2.0 - Introduced the [dbt Product Licensing Agreement](https://www.getdbt.com/dbt-fusion-engine-license-agreement) that governs the dbt Fusion binary’s usage - Added FAQs related to the Apache 2.0 release of dbt Core v2.0 - Removed references to the Business Source License, because MetricFlow was relicensed as Apache 2.0 in October 2025. *** ## Announcing dbt Core v2.0 and Fusion: two distributions powered by a single engine On May 28, 2025, dbt Labs announced the next-generation dbt Fusion engine, which is faster, more capable, and more efficient than the Python engine that powers dbt Core v1.x. On June 1, 2026, dbt Labs announced that the dbt Fusion engine will power both the dbt Core (OSS) and Fusion (proprietary) distributions of the dbt v2.0 framework, and that the corresponding code has been published to the dbt-core repository under the Apache 2.0 license. ### Is the license for dbt Core v1.x changing? No, it is still Apache 2.0. ### Is the license for dbt Core v2.x changing compared to v1.x? No, it is Apache 2.0 as well. ### Will dbt Labs continue to support and maintain dbt Core? Yes. ### What is the difference between the dbt Core and Fusion distributions? Version 2 of the dbt framework has two distributions which can both be installed locally for free, powered by a single engine: - dbt Core is completely open-source. Its code and binary are subject to the Apache 2.0 license. - dbt Fusion extends dbt Core with additional proprietary code to create an enhanced binary with additional features. Teams (and even other competitive vendors) can use the Fusion distribution for free, subject to a handful of basic provisions described below. Some additional features of the dbt Fusion distribution require a dbt platform account or paid subscription. We recommend that most teams install the dbt Fusion distribution, which has more capabilities available than its Apache counterpart even if you never engage with dbt Labs. ### What happened to the ELv2-licensed code in the dbt-fusion repository? It is now in the dbt-core repository under the more permissive Apache 2.0 license. The additional code necessary to build a Rust implementation of dbt Core – which we previously committed to releasing under the Elastic License (ELv2) by the time the dbt Fusion engine reached General Availability – has also been moved into the dbt-core repository as Apache 2.0 code. ### Do I need a dbt platform account, or to be a paying dbt platform customer in order to use dbt Fusion? No. ### Do I need a dbt platform account, or to be a paying dbt platform customer in order to access some premium features of dbt Fusion? Yes. ### Is there any limit to the number of users at a company who can use the dbt Fusion CLI for free? No. ### What do I, a dbt Core user, need to know about dbt Fusion? As long as you aren't offering dbt Fusion as a hosted or managed service to a third party, you should think about using dbt Fusion in almost exactly the same way you think about using dbt Core today. It’s free, you can contribute to its development, and you can adopt it across your organization without asking permission or changing your existing deployment method. You can use dbt Fusion internally in your own business, for free and without restriction. This includes using dbt Fusion to provide transformed data to other customers. However, if you are providing your customers a product with dbt Fusion embedded, you must permit your customers to use the full features of dbt Fusion, including login-gated features if they choose. *** ## Licenses ### What licenses does dbt Labs use for dbt products? dbt Labs uses different license types for different software offerings: - dbt Core is released under the [Apache 2.0 license](http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0), which is an Open Source software license that permits anyone to use, copy, redistribute, or modify the licensed software without warranty, conditions, or limitations, aside from the requirement to preserve license notices, attribution, and trademarks. - dbt Fusion is proprietary to dbt Labs and extends the capabilities of dbt Core. dbt Fusion is made available to customers and partners under the [dbt Product Licensing Agreement](https://www.getdbt.com/dbt-fusion-engine-license-agreement), which allows broad adoption subject to terms designed to support the sustainable business of its developer and maintainer (dbt Labs). - Other software is proprietary to dbt Labs and made available to customers and partners under commercial terms of service. This includes software that is available for free, within usage limits. *** ## Understanding dbt Core and dbt Fusion ### Has the license for dbt Core changed? No. There is no change in license for existing dbt Core software, or future releases of that software. dbt Core (which includes the dbt-core, dbt-common, and dbt-adapters repositories maintained by dbt Labs) is licensed under Apache 2, as it has been since its first release in 2016. As Fivetran + dbt Labs President Tristan Handy wrote in a [blog post introducing the dbt Fusion engine](https://www.getdbt.com/blog/new-code-new-license-understanding-the-new-license-for-the-dbt-fusion-engine), and again when [announcing Fivetran and dbt Labs’ merger](https://www.getdbt.com/blog/dbt-labs-and-fivetran-merge-announcement), the combined company will continue maintaining dbt Core under the Apache 2 license **indefinitely**. dbt Labs is committed to the ecosystem around dbt Core, and the thousands of users and customers who rely on it for their data work every day. ### Does a single shared engine mean dbt Core is being replaced? No. dbt Core is not: - a specific set of Python files. - the version of dbt you can run on a laptop. - the version of dbt you can run without paying. dbt Core is the completely open source implementation of the dbt framework. The dbt framework includes a language and an engine. The dbt **language**, the code you can write in your dbt project, has become a standard for the industry. dbt Labs has developed this language, with contributions and input from the community, in dbt Core over the past decade. The dbt **engine** is the foundational technology for compiling dbt projects, executing transformation graphs, and producing metadata. There is an entirely new next-generation engine for v2 of the dbt framework, written in a different programming language (Rust) than dbt Core v1.x (Python). Instead of maintaining two engines in two languages, dbt Labs has created a single engine which powers two distributions by open sourcing the code required to produce a Rust distribution of dbt Core v2. We are committed to maintaining and _continuing_ _to expand_ the dbt language across both the Core and Fusion distributions, exactly as we have done to date. You should expect to see new dbt Core versions (v2.1, v2.2, etc) that include support for new language features and fixes. dbt Labs will also continue to evaluate and integrate external contributions from the community. dbt Labs’ goal is to enable as many users as possible to upgrade to Fusion when they adopt version 2 of the dbt framework. We believe that Fusion will provide a superior development and deployment experience for everyone. You do not need to be a paying dbt customer to use Fusion. ### How is dbt Fusion licensed? The [dbt Product Licensing Agreement](https://www.getdbt.com/dbt-fusion-engine-license-agreement) terms only apply to the dbt Fusion binary and strike the balance of providing openness and flexibility for users, while also providing protections for dbt Labs to build a sustainable business as the software’s primary developer and maintainer. As a user of dbt Fusion, you can do almost anything with the software, except: - If you redistribute dbt Fusion to others as a managed service, you must permit your end users to utilize the full capabilities of dbt Fusion, including features gated behind login, if they choose to do so. User login must be accessible through standard documented flows. - You cannot circumvent dbt Fusion’s “license key” functionality or attempt to derive Fusion’s source code. - You cannot remove or obscure any notices about dbt Fusion’s license or dbt’s trademarks/copyrights. ### Why does dbt Fusion not use ELv2 any more? The primary purpose of the Elastic License (ELv2) is to prevent a tool’s use in competing products which host that tool as a service. Now that dbt Core v2.0 is built on the same engine – using code which was relicensed from ELv2 to Apache 2.0 – preventing competitive deployments of dbt Fusion is not a priority. Third party vendors can offer dbt Fusion as a managed service – including the advanced features which are available without login – provided they do not prevent users from logging in and enabling other premium features. This also aligns with the goals of [Open Data Infrastructure](https://www.getdbt.com/blog/dbt-labs-and-fivetran-product-vision), which at its heart prioritizes flexible tool choice, low switching costs, and interoperability with established standards. We would prefer users building on top of third-party tools (e.g. a different orchestrator) to adopt the full dbt Fusion binary, so they can seamlessly opt into additional services from dbt Labs in the future if they choose to. ### What’s the difference between dbt’s public source code and binary distributions? The Core and Fusion distributions of dbt v2 are both derived from a single engine which is written in Rust, a compiled language. dbt Core’s source code is visible in [the dbt-core repository](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core), and also distributed as a compiled binary. You are welcome to read, compile, modify, and redistribute the visible source code and the accompanying dbt Core binary. Both are licensed under the Apache 2.0 license. dbt Fusion is based on the same Apache-licensed source code in the dbt-core repository, and also includes proprietary components for which the source code is not publicly viewable. These components add functionality, some of which is available to everyone, and some which is available exclusively to logged-in or paying customers (via license key). Our documentation site will make it clear when functionality requires the proprietary Fusion distribution. The dbt Fusion distribution is subject to the dbt Product Licensing Agreement as described above. The dbt language spec and adapter functionality are freely available in the dbt-core repository and do not require a license key. ### What is the “license key” within the context of dbt Fusion? Some of dbt Fusion’s premium features are proprietary functionalities that are available only to registered or paying customers, and are unlocked via a license key. dbt Fusion’s license key is implemented via authentication with dbt Labs’ commercial software. By authenticating, users unlock these additional features. The dbt Product Licensing Agreement prohibits any attempt by any user to circumvent license key functionality. ### Does dbt Labs welcome contributions to dbt Core and dbt Fusion? Yes! dbt Labs maintains many open-source software projects in public repositories on GitHub ([https://github.com/dbt-labs](https://github.com/dbt-labs)). Anyone can contribute code to any of these projects after signing our [Contributor License Agreement](https://docs.getdbt.com/community/resources/contributor-license-agreements). If you are a user of dbt Fusion, contributions you make to the dbt-core repository will apply to both distributions since they share the same underlying code. As always, we value the participation of the community, and will carefully review and evaluate external contributions. We also recognize that valuable contributions come in many forms: opening issues, commenting in discussions, answering questions from other community members, and contributing code to fix bugs or extend functionality. *** ## Can I use dbt Fusion? ### Examples by use case **My team is using dbt to develop, transform, and test data assets in my company's cloud data warehouse. Those data assets are powering real-time dashboards for our colleagues and embedded product experiences for our customers. Is this a permitted use of dbt Fusion?** Yes, this is permitted. We believe strongly in the “dbt way” of doing analytical work (which we’ve called the [ADLC](https://www.getdbt.com/resources/guides/the-analytics-development-lifecycle)), and we believe that upgrading to dbt Fusion will enable your team to do this work even more effectively. **I'm a contractor or consultant setting up dbt Fusion for my clients to use internally. Am I permitted to continue doing this? Am I subject to the limitations on redistribution?** Yes, this is permitted and is not considered redistribution of dbt Fusion, assuming each client’s deployment is standalone and they could control it directly if they wanted to. **I want to use dbt Fusion to transform my customers’ data into assets that power my application. The app shows Fusion data test failures directly to customers, as a way of alerting them to data quality issues in their source data systems. Am I permitted to continue doing this?** Yes, this is permitted, because your customers are not using a tool that embeds and redistributes dbt Fusion directly. Rather, your customers are accessing the data itself, which is transformed using dbt Fusion behind the scenes. **I’m building a general-purpose data preparation and analytics product. I provide my customers with data transformation workflows that are leveraging dbt Fusion without exposing the dbt Fusion login mechanism to my customers. Is this a permitted use?** No. If your customers are submitting code, configuration, or other inputs to data transformation workflows embedded in your product, and your product is powered by dbt Fusion, users must be able to create an account and login to enable dbt Fusion’s premium features directly. It does not matter whether your customers’ inputs happen via UI, API, prompts, or otherwise. However, you _can_ use dbt Core v2.x in any way you choose, or modify the code in the dbt-core repository to meet your needs. If you take this approach, you must still respect dbt Labs’ [trademark policy and brand guidelines](https://www.getdbt.com/brand-guidelines). If you would like to discuss your specific case, and the possibility of a negotiated commercial agreement for dbt Fusion, please reach out to us at license@dbtlabs.com. **I’m building a data product that provides functionality complementary to dbt. I provide my customers with a dbt Fusion integration as part of my hosted/managed service. Is this a permitted use?** Yes, provided you comply with the dbt Product Licensing Agreement. If your product integrates with documented APIs of dbt — such as by generating dbt code to write back to your customers’ projects, or by parsing metadata artifacts that your customer provides from their own self-hosted dbt Fusion deployment — this is permitted without reservation (and encouraged!). dbt Labs publishes [validation schemas](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-jsonschema) and [artifact specifications](https://github.com/dbt-labs/schemas.getdbt.com) with Apache 2 licenses, which you may freely use as part of building your integration. If your product integration invokes dbt Fusion against customer projects as part of your hosted or managed service, this use is permitted as long as you comply with the Redistribution requirements in the dbt Product Licensing Agreement. For example, you cannot block a customer’s network access to dbt servers, because they must be able to enable premium functionality if they choose to do so. Please reach out to us at license@dbtlabs.com with any questions. ### Examples by deployment pattern **If I am self-hosting Airflow to run dbt Core for my own business today, can I start running dbt Fusion instead?** Yes. **If I am an end user of a hosted/managed service that provides dbt Core today, can they offer dbt Fusion to me directly as a feature of their service?** Yes. The hosted/managed service provider must not prevent you from enabling Fusion’s premium features if you choose to do so, but they may provide you with access to dbt Fusion (which has additional capabilities beyond dbt Core even if you do not log in). **If I am an end user of a hosted/managed service that provides dbt Core today and has not implemented native dbt Fusion support, am I in violation of the license if I install dbt Fusion directly?** No, this is not a violation of the license. As an end user of dbt Fusion, you are not subject to the limitations applied to redistributors of Fusion. If you are the provider of a hosted/managed service that might run dbt Fusion, or if you have a different question not answered here, we encourage you to contact us at license@dbtlabs.com. **If I currently deploy dbt Core in an airgapped environment with no external network access, am I allowed to replace it with dbt Fusion?** Yes. You are allowed to deploy dbt Fusion into any environment you choose, with any networking restrictions required by your business. The dbt Product Licensing Agreement only prevents a _third party_ from blocking your ability to enable Fusion’s premium features if you choose to do so. **If I currently deploy dbt Core to developers across my company with preconfigured defaults which disable anonymous usage stats, am I allowed to replace it with dbt Fusion?** Yes. The Redistribution restrictions in the dbt Product Licensing Agreement only apply to those providing dbt Fusion to third parties. --- --- title: "Partners" description: "Join our partner ecosystem to deliver modern data solutions and empower analytics teams with dbt." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/partners" --- # Become a dbt Labs partner today Gain insider resources and unique opportunities while helping customers get the most from dbt.

Yes! The [dbt Community Slack](https://www.getdbt.com/community/join-the-community) is home to thousands of analytics professionals, and commands significant attention from our dedicated dbt Community team. You’ll find channels like #advice-dbt-for-beginners, dedicated channels for users of various warehouses + BI tools, and groups for analytics leaders (#leading-data-teams, #analytics-craft). The dbt Community Slack is also where all attendees of our annual analytics engineering conference, [dbt Summit,](https://www.getdbt.com/dbt-summit) connect during the event. ### I’m new to dbt, how should I get started? Many users of all skill levels begin developing their first transformation within minutes of connecting their warehouse by following the [getting started tutorial](https://docs.getdbt.com/tutorial/setting-up). For a structured introduction, our free [dbt Fundamentals](https://learn.getdbt.com/courses/dbt-fundamentals) course covers everything you need to know to model, test, document, and deploy your first project. If your data team is looking for a more interactive experience, we also offer [in-depth “classroom” training](https://www.getdbt.com/dbt-learn/) to Enterprise customers: - Rapid Onboarding: Jumpstart your dbt implementation using your own data - Group Training: Build skills and confidence with sample data in a sandbox environment Additionally, [dbt Community Slack](https://www.getdbt.com/community/), the [dbt docs hub](https://docs.getdbt.com/) and the [developer blog](https://docs.getdbt.com/blog) are excellent resources for self or peer-to-peer education. ### Do I need to be comfortable working on the command line to use dbt? No! dbt includes an integrated development environment (IDE) with “git-guardrails” that allow you to start safely building and deploying dbt models without setting up your local machine or working on the command line. *** ## Billing and security FAQs Frequently asked questions about dbt plans, pricing and billing. ### How does billing work? Starter plans are billed monthly on the credit card used to sign up, based on developer seat count ($100USD per seat per month) and successful models built (over 15,000 per month). You’ll also be sent a monthly receipt to the billing email of your choice. If you’d like to change any billing information, just reach out to us at support@getdbt.com. Enterprise plan customers are billed annually based on the number of developer seats and successful models built, as well as any additional services + features in your chosen plan. ### Can I pay by invoice? At present, dbt Starter plan payments must be made via credit card, and by default they will be billed monthly based on the number of developer seats. We don’t have any plans to do invoicing for Starter plan accounts in the near future, but we do currently support invoices for companies on the dbt Enterprise plan. Feel free to [contact us to build your Enterprise pricing plan](https://www.getdbt.com/contact/). ### Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan? ​​Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Account Owners can access their dedicated billing page via the account settings page: just click the hamburger icon and “Billing” to adjust your plan or update credit card information. If you’re not sure which plan is right for you, get in touch and we’ll be happy to help you find one that fits your needs. ### What if I want to cancel my account? You can cancel your account at any time on your Account Settings page. Of course, we’d hate to see you go – drop us a line and we’ll do everything we can to make it right! ### Does dbt store my data? dbt stores the following data persistently: - dbt account information including job definitions, database connection information, users, etc. dbt account information does not include any raw data from your warehouse. - Logs associated with jobs and interactive queries you’ve run. - Your dbt “assets” which include artifacts like run_results.json and manifest.json. Logs and assets do not include raw data from the warehouse, unless the code you write commands it. For example, it’s possible to write dbt code that fetches all customer data from your customer table and writes it to the logs. While that’s usually not a good idea and we do not recommend it, if you did that it’d mean that information is stored in dbt. ### How is data processed by the dbt IDE? When writing interactive queries from the IDE (for example: `select * from customers limit 100`) the resulting query output passes through dbt Cloud infrastructure on the way to your browser. However, this data is not persisted in any way (caching or otherwise). It does not live on our servers outside of your browser session. ### Are there other account parameter limits aside from those mentioned above? There are other limitations that most clients are unlikely to encounter, depending on client usage patterns. Truly “unlimited” usage of current and/or future features, products or services is never possible because costs, expenses, and supplier charges are subject to fluctuation and/or inflationary or other permanent increases. Client usage must remain subject to other reasonable use limitations. dbt Labs reserves the right to adjust limits, encourage optimization or increase pricing dependent on market forces, client usage patterns, and, ultimately, its discretion. --- --- title: "Solutions - AI" description: "Leverage AI with dbt to enhance data workflows, automate complex tasks, and gain predictive insights." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/product/ai" --- # AI runs on data. ||Data runs on dbt. dbt delivers the structured context and trusted standards your AI systems demand—ensuring fully governed, consistent outputs every time.

Cut warehouse compute & ship fresher data." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/product/dbt-state" --- # Build what’s changed, skip what hasn’t. dbt State builds only what has changed. Simplify orchestration, iterate faster in governed dev environments, and cut warehouse compute by 15-30%. Locally or in the cloud. [Get started](https://us1.dbt.com/register?_dbtsrc=dbt-state) *** *Why dbt State* ## Stop rebuilding. Start saving. Whether you're orchestrating in the dbt platform, running dbt locally, or using an external orchestrator, dbt State makes every run smarter: less compute, simpler orchestration, and faster iteration. ### Simplify orchestration Apply freshness on the model in code, not in the scheduler. Run as often as the business needs. No custom workflows, no manual orchestration. ### Develop faster with guardrails Start building in seconds without any complex setup rituals. Iterate freely and faster without fear of expensive mistakes or breaking changes. ### Optimize performance Reduce warehouse compute by 15-30% on average by only building models when upstream data or code has actually changed. Stop paying to rebuild what hasn't. *** > > > — Gordon Curzon, Virgin Media O2 *** *How it works* ## Intelligence built into every run. On every run, dbt State checks your metadata and model SQL to see what’s changed. When upstream data or code has changed, it **builds** the model. Otherwise, it **skips** the build by: - **Reusing **existing state — zero compute, zero risk - **Cloning** existing state with minimal compute cost - **Auto-deferring** (in development) to production state This works for full models, incremental models, snapshots, seeds, and tests. *** *In production* ## Simpler orchestration, fresher data, more efficient runs. Eliminate hours spent maintaining custom workflows and manual orchestration. Just turn dbt State on, configure freshness, and run your jobs as often as you need. That means fresher data, less complexity, and meaningful warehouse savings without changing how you work. **Tuned configurations. **Declare freshness and dependency rules directly in your project code. Set a max staleness window via lag_tolerance so models rebuild only when they're due — not every run. Move orchestration logic from imperative scheduling into declarative, version-controlled configurations. *** *In development* ## Iterate faster in governed dev environments. Not only does dbt State skip and clone models in development, but it can auto-defer to production state, so analytics engineers can start building immediately — no manual overhead and no fear of costly mistakes. Auto-clone from prod and auto-defer let you start building in seconds. Only run the part of the DAG you’re working on. No cloning macros, no staleness bookkeeping. No selection-syntax expertise needed; dbt State is a structural guardrail against runaway dev cost, no matter who, or which AI agent, runs the command. *** ## Run anywhere. Optimize everywhere. dbt State is available as a plugin for dbt Core or out-of-the-box in the dbt platform. Whether you run locally, with your own orchestrator, or on the dbt platform — you get the same efficiency. *** ## Reuse more, save more. dbt State pricing is usage-based. You pay based on the benefit from model reuse. dbt State cost is measured using Daily Active Target Tables. Daily active target tables (DATT) are measured as the number of distinct target tables for which dbt State performs a unique skip or clone, and unique test reuse operations on a given calendar day. **Visit the [pricing page](https://www.getdbt.com/pricing) to learn more.** *** ## Frequently asked questions ### Does dbt State work with dbt v1? Yes. dbt State is available as a plugin for dbt Core (1.7+). Install it, run dbt build, and you're optimizing immediately — no platform migration required. ### Does dbt State work with external orchestrators? Yes. Whether you run dbt through Airflow, Dagster, or any other orchestrator, dbt State works the same way. It evaluates state on every run regardless of how that run is triggered. *** ## Stop rebuilding unchanged models. Start saving today.

Available wherever your team or you develop. ### Knows your data, not just your code Natively understands your full dbt project, so every change comes with full context on what's upstream, downstream, and at stake — and shows you exactly how the logic changed in the DAG. ### Self-validates before you review An opinionated workflow makes validation the default, so problems get caught before they ship, not after. Fewer production incidents, less time fixing what AI got wrong. ### Governed and auditable by default Every change is auditable and nothing ships without review. Keep a human in the loop to always know what changed, why, and who approved it. ### Always calls the right tool With high-precision tool orchestration, Wizard knows exactly which dbt-specific call to make and when ### No context hunting. Less token waste. dbt's native metadata engine retrieves exactly what the agent needs before it writes a line, so you get more accurate output while optimizing token spend. ### Zero setup. Zero maintenance. No MCP infrastructure to configure, no DIY system to maintain, no per-model bills to manage — just cost-efficient access to the best models.

We have continuous monitoring and development to identify possible issues and keep our systems up to date. *** ## Run your code fast on our secure infrastructure Keep your data protected on a platform that’s proven safe and secure. Our processes are continually tested and maintained to the highest standards, and we partner with top experts to stay up to date with the latest security techniques. This includes third party providers that continuously challenge our systems with rigorous penetration testing to find weak points before they can be exploited. *** ## Compliance - **** - **** - **** - **** - **** - **** - **** - **** - **** *** ## Security Highlights The entire dbt team is focused on keeping you and your data safe. We use industry standards including OWASP, NIST, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 42001 to guide our security program and engineering practices. ### Access management dbt Labs has implemented a number of access controls to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of dbt. All access is provisioned by role and the principle of least privilege. Our controls include multi-factor authentication requirements, strong passwords, an identity provider, Zero Network Trust Access tooling for production environments, mobile device management and quarterly access reviews to name a few. ### Asset management - dbt Labs has established configuration standards across all of its managed endpoints to ensure assets are configured securely and identically. - Laptops are protected by full disk encryption using FileVault2, and managed by an industry-leading MDM. - A tool is in place to enforce the use of standard production images for production servers_._ ### Availability, business continuity, & disaster recovery - dbt is _primarily_ hosted in AWS, and deployed across multiple AZ’s (availability zones) in a region. - Our retention of backups are a minimum of seven (7) days. - Our staff is remotely distributed across the world providing support to customers globally. Our distributed workforce allows us to provide support virtually from anywhere and reduce the impact of support interruption in a geographic location. - Our Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery, and Incident Response Plans are tested annually to ensure effectiveness and organizational readiness. ### Communication encryption - All connections to dbt are encrypted by default, in both directions using modern ciphers and cryptographic systems. We maintain an A+ rating from [Qualys/SSL Labs](https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=cloud.getdbt.com&s=54.175.47.110). We support both TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 to encrypt data in transit. - Any attempt to connect over HTTP is redirected to HTTPS. - We use HSTS to ensure browsers interact with dbt only over HTTPS - We utilize AES-256 for all data encrypted at rest. - For additional information about dbt Architecture, please visit [https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/about-cloud/architecture](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/about-cloud/architecture) ### Data processing Data remains in your data warehouse – we don’t upload or download it. Your query is created on the frontend of our tool in your browser (it is not cached by dbt Labs), behind your firewalls and VPN, and is not accessed by any of our employees unless you screen share with our support team. Even if you use a preview pane, that is also under your control or that of the data warehouse and is not accessible from our systems. Once written or as scheduled, the query runs through the IDE’s backend. dbt Labs has set up the backend to be fully automated and is not accessible by dbt Labs personnel unless a problem occurs to the tool, and then only the personnel capable of diagnosing and fixing a problem would have access. For development purposes, analysts can write queries from the IDE against development data, for example: “select * from customers limit 100,” the data from your development customers table will pass through the dbt infrastructure on the way to your browser. Data does not live on our servers outside of your ephemeral session. _dbt Labs employees are not able to access those sessions._ Upon request for Enterprise accounts, this IDE Preview functionality can be disabled. ### Data storage dbt stores the following data persistently: 1. dbt account information including job definitions, database connection information, users, etc. dbt account information does not include any raw data from your warehouse. 2. Logs associated with jobs and interactive queries you’ve run. 3. Your dbt “assets” which include things like run_results.json and manifest.json. Generally, logs and other dbt assets do not contain client data stored in its data storage location unless your user directs such storage. For example, it’s theoretically possible to write a command that instructs the data warehouse to write your data into a dbt log. Please note that we strongly advise against transferring client stored data to our logs. There is no reason for such an action. Unless otherwise indicated, dbt is [hosted](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/about-cloud/architecture) in multiple regions and will connect to your data platform or git provider from the IP addresses found [here](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/about-cloud/regions-ip-addresses#fnref-1). Be sure to allow traffic from these IPs in your firewall, and include them in any database grants. [dbt Enterprise](https://www.getdbt.com/pricing/) plans can choose to have their account hosted in any of the regions found [here](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/about-cloud/regions-ip-addresses#fnref-1). Organizations **must** choose a single region per dbt account. If you need to run dbt in multiple regions, we recommend using multiple dbt accounts. For more information, please visit this [link](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/about-cloud/regions-ip-addresses#fnref-1). ### Penetration testing dbt undergoes annual penetration testing by an independent third-party provider, and regularly updates all underlying software to the latest secure versions. ### Research and disclosure dbt Labs is committed to working with security researchers across the world to keep our systems secure. If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in dbt Core, dbt, or another dbt Labs product, we encourage you to let us know right away.

If you need to test an exploit that will interact with another user then set up a second user account for testing or reach out to [bug-bounty@dbtlabs.com](mailto:bug-bounty@dbtlabs.com) if you need specific testing requirements. - Testing against dbt Labs' physical properties, employees’ properties, or data centers. - [getdbt.com](http://getdbt.com) subdomains clearly operated by third-parties are explicitly out of scope, including, [discourse.getdbt.com](http://discourse.getdbt.com), [shop.getdbt.com](http://shop.getdbt.com), [trust.getdbt.com](http://trust.getdbt.com), [roundup.getdbt.com](http://roundup.getdbt.com), [assessment.getdbt.com](http://assessment.getdbt.com), and [credentials.getdbt.com](http://credentials.getdbt.com) ### Vulnerabilities Excluded from Rewards Depending on their impact, some of the reported issues may not qualify if they do not present a considerable amount of risk to the business. Below are some examples of non-qualifying security issues. - Disclosure of known public files or directories, (e.g., robots.txt). - Clickjacking and issues only exploitable through clickjacking. - CSRF on forms that are available to anonymous users (e.g., the contact form). - CSRF attacks that require knowledge of the CSRF token (e.g., attacks involving a local machine). - Logout cross-site request forgery (logout CSRF). - Content spoofing. - Login or Forgot Password page brute force and account lockout not enforced. - OPTIONS HTTP method enabled. - Username/email enumeration. - Missing HTTP security headers, specifically ([https://www.owasp.org/index.php/List_of_useful_HTTP_headers](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/List_of_useful_HTTP_headers)), such as: - Strict-Transport-Security. - X-Frame-Options. - X-XSS-Protection. - X-Content-Type-Options. - Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Security-Policy, X-WebKit-CSP. - Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only. - Cache-Control and Pragma - HTTP/DNS cache poisoning. - SSL/TLS issues, such as: - SSL attacks such as BEAST, BREACH, Renegotiation attack. - SSL forward secrecy not enabled. - SSL weak/insecure cipher suites. - Self-XSS reports will not be accepted. - Similarly, any XSS where local access is required (i.e., User-Agent Header injection) will not be accepted. The only exception will be if you can show a working off-path MiTM attack that will allow for the XSS to trigger. - Subdomain takeover without proof of exploitability. - Missing or incorrect SPF records of any kind. - Missing or incorrect DMARC records of any kind. - Source code disclosure vulnerabilities. - Information disclosure of non-confidential information. - Email bombing/flooding/rate limiting. - Google Maps API Keys. - Vulnerabilities that require the user/victim to perform extremely unlikely actions (e.g., bypassing default security configurations in common web browsers). - Submission of user credentials obtained (e.g., public database dumps) ## Rewards All rewards will be provided at the discretion of dbt Labs via Bugcrowd and are subject to change without notice. ### Severities Our vulnerability rating system uses five severities: Critical, High, Medium, Low, and Informational. We evaluate submissions and assign severity based on our assessment of business risk. #### Critical Any vulnerability that would lead to full compromise of dbt Labs application, infrastructure, or data. Examples include: - Gaining privileged access to infrastructure - Gaining remote (e.g., shell) access to containers, infrastructure, or supporting applications - Gaining ability to export or delete databases #### High Any vulnerability that where the compromise of a sensitive data would lead to lateral movement. Examples include: - Ability to steal user access keys and using them to gain access to another application within dbt Labs. - Gaining access to portions of the infrastructure where man-in-the-middle operations could be conducted. #### Medium Any vulnerability that would lead to compromise of a sensitive data. Examples include: - Ability to steal user access keys - Ability to change data associated with other users - Persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) that can access another user’s settings #### Low Any vulnerability that would lead to performance degradation or data spillage. Examples include: - Application vulnerability via API endpoint manipulation - UI bug via data input that could cause performance or security issues - Subdomain takeover with proof that data is flowing to that subdomain #### Informational Issues that have no specific security impact. Examples include: - Lack of implemented security practices that may not apply in our specific context - Disclosure of information about the application environment - Debug statements ### Valid Submissions Valid submissions will receive a response within the order in which they were received. Once a submission has been assessed a severity by Bugcrowd and/or dbt Labs, if it is assessed Low or higher, then we will reward the bounty. ## **Legal Disclosure** We are unable to issue rewards to individuals who are on US sanctions lists, or who are in countries on US sanctions lists as indicated in our [terms of use](https://www.getdbt.com/terms-of-use). You are responsible for any tax implications depending on your country of residency and citizenship. There may be additional restrictions on your eligibility for the program depending upon your local law. This is not a competition, but rather an experimental and discretionary rewards program. You should understand that we can cancel the program at any time and the decision as to whether or not to reward is entirely at our discretion. dbt Labs rewards bug bounty hunters on a first-come, first-served basis, so if you report a vulnerability that is already known, it is not eligible for reward. There is no guarantee of a reward if a report is submitted. We will not share findings from other submitters. Your testing must not violate any law, disrupt our systems, or compromise any data that is not your own. If you have any questions, please contact [bug-bounty@dbtlabs.com](mailto:bug-bounty@dbtlabs.com). ## Definitions - **Black** **Box**. Type of testing where we share no sensitive information with the testers. We do not grant special access and the main goal is to test from the perspective of an attacker who has no internal knowledge of the systems. - **Business** **Impact**. A qualitative assessment of how a vulnerability will impact the business based on mitigating controls, quantitative assessments (e.g., CVSS), environmental factors, and other internal metrics that could be used to assess the impact of the vulnerability. --- --- title: "Services" description: "Partner with dbt Labs experts to design, implement, and scale your analytics workflows with confidence." url: "https://www.getdbt.com/services" --- # Modernize your data stack with expert guidance Implement the best tools and strategies for high-quality data development with help from dbt Labs Professional Services.

("dbt Labs") and Client; and (b) the dbt Labs Data Processing Addendum or similar agreement for dbt Labs’ processing of Personal Data on behalf of Client in connection with Client’s use of dbt Labs Services and Fivetran Products (the "DPA", and together with the Terms, the "Agreement") entered into between dbt Labs and Client. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the meanings given to them in the Agreement (or, if not defined in the Agreement, in the dbt Labs Terms of Service located at [https://www.getdbt.com/terms-of-service](https://www.getdbt.com/terms-of-service) or the dbt Labs Data Processing Addendum located at [https://www.getdbt.com/cloud/dpa](https://www.getdbt.com/cloud/dpa), or such successor URLs as may be designated by dbt Labs). ### 1. DEFINITIONS Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, for purposes of Client’s use of the Fivetran Products, the following definitions apply: - **"Customer Data" or “Data” **means any data that Client or its Authorized Users upload to or transmit through a Fivetran Product. - **"Documentation" **means Fivetran’s usage documentation for the applicable Fivetran Product made available on Fivetran’s website. - **"Fivetran" **means Fivetran Inc., a Delaware corporation. - **"Fivetran Product" **means (a) a SaaS-based data integration product ("SaaS Product"), (b) a downloadable data integration software component or product installed on premise or in Client’s private cloud environment ("On-Prem Software"), or (c) any combination or hybrid thereof, in each case provided by Fivetran. - **“Personal Data” **means the personal data described in Annex I as attached to these Requirements. - **“Software and Service Specific Requirements”** means the requirements for certain of the Fivetran Products and Professional Services located at https://www.fivetran.com/legal/service-specific-requirements, solely to the extent Client uses such Fivetran Products or Professional Services. - **"Source and Target Systems" **means with respect to On-Prem Software, the permitted type and number of computer hardware systems, storage platforms and computer frameworks from which Client may use such On-Prem Software, as identified in the applicable Order Form. - **“System Data”** means data, information or outputs derived by dbt Labs from the use of a Fivetran Product, including logs, statistics, or reports regarding the performance, availability, usage, integrity or security of the Fivetran Product (e.g., a user’s path through the Fivetran Product, login frequency, query logs, etc.).

PRIVACY AND SECURITY **3.1 Security.** Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, any security provisions and any security exhibits in the Agreement related to the dbt Labs Services will not apply to the Fivetran Products. Instead, dbt Labs will procure that Fivetran maintains administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer Data submitted to the Fivetran Products in accordance with the Fivetran security policy located at [https://fivetran.com/docs/security](https://fivetran.com/docs/security) (the "Fivetran Security Policy") posted as of the Effective Date (as the Fivetran Security Policy may be updated by Fivetran in a manner that does not materially decrease the applicable protections for the Fivetran Products during the term of the applicable Order Form). **3.2 Privacy. **For purposes of these Requirements, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement and solely with respect to the Processing of Personal Data in connection with the Fivetran Products, the DPA is modified as follows: (a) dbt Labs will process Personal Data for the following purposes: (i) as described in Schedule 1 of these Requirements, which hereby replaces Schedule 1 of the DPA (Details of the Processing and Transfer of Subscriber Personal Data); (ii) in accordance with the documented reasonable instructions of Client (which instructions, where Client is a processor, will reflect the instructions of its controller) that are consistent with the terms of the Agreement, these Requirements, applicable Order Forms, and Data Protection Laws; and (iii) to comply with dbt Labs’ legal obligations. (b) Schedule 2 of the DPA (Technical and Organisational Security Measures) is modified as set forth in Schedule 2 of these Requirements; (c) Schedule 3 of the DPA (Authorised Subprocessors) is modified as set forth in Schedule 3 of these Requirements.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, dbt Labs may collect System Data and use such data internally to develop, improve, support, and operate Fivetran Products. dbt Labs’ use of System Data will comply with Data Protection Laws. dbt Labs owns all right, title, and interest in System Data. dbt Labs may not share any System Data that includes Personal Data with a third party except to the extent the System Data is aggregated and anonymized such that Client and Client’s users cannot be identified. ### 4. SUPPORT POLICY AND SLA Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, technical support for the Fivetran Products will not be subject to dbt Labs’ support. Instead, technical support for the Fivetran Products are governed by the Fivetran Support Policy located at [https://www.fivetran.com/legal/support-policy](https://www.fivetran.com/legal/support-policy). In addition, use of the Fivetran Products is not subject to any service level agreement or SLA in the Agreement, and such use will instead be governed by the Fivetran SLA at [https://www.fivetran.com/legal/sla](https://www.fivetran.com/legal/sla). **5. SERVICE CONSUMPTION TABLE** Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or an Order Form, any provisions related to Fees, including as it related to Units, in the Agreement or an existing Order Form will not apply to the Fivetran Products.

Billing communications will be addressed to ar@fivetran.com. ### 6. RESTRICTIONS AND REQUIREMENTS Client will use the Fivetran Products in accordance with the Fivetran Acceptable Use Policy located at [https://www.fivetran.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy](https://www.fivetran.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy) and the Software and Service Specific Requirements. ### 7. TRADE LAWS Client agrees to comply with, and shall not permit Authorized Users or any third parties to access or use the Fivetran Products in violation of international export controls and economic and trade sanctions laws and regulations (collectively, “Trade Laws”). Without limiting the foregoing, Client represents that it (a) will not access the Services from a country or territory that is itself the subject or target of trade or economic sanctions (a “Sanctioned Country”). ### 8. PRE-COMMERCIAL OFFERINGS Any Fivetran Product or feature offered on a trial basis will be deemed a "Beta Feature" for all purposes of Section 13.10 (Beta Features Terms) of the Terms. ### 9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THE AGREEMENT, THE AGGREGATE, CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF DBT LABS (INCLUDING ITS AFFILIATES AND THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS AND SUPPLIERS) FOR OBLIGATIONS AND CLAIMS RELATED TO CUSTOMER DATA, WILL NOT EXCEED TWO TIMES (2X) THE AMOUNTS PAID OR PAYABLE BY CLIENT UNDER THE APPLICABLE ORDER FORM DURING THE TWELVE MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM (“SPECIAL CAP”). NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THE AGREEMENT, CLIENT WILL INDEMNIFY AND DEFEND DBT LABS AND ITS AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES (COLLECTIVELY, “DBT LABS INDEMNIFIED PARTIES”) FROM AND AGAINST ANY DAMAGES AND COSTS FINALLY AWARDED AGAINST THE DBT LABS INDEMNIFIED PARTIES OR AGREED TO IN SETTLEMENT BY CLIENT (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO CUSTOMER DATA OR THEIR USE WITH THE FIVETRAN PRODUCTS, AS APPLICABLE, PROVIDED DBT LABS’ USE OF THE CUSTOMER DATA IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE AGREEMENT. SUCH INDEMNITY IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT. ### 10. EFFECTIVE DATE AND UPDATES TO THESE REQUIREMENTS These Requirements take effect immediately upon Client’s use of the Fivetran Products. dbt Labs may update these Requirements from time to time. Any updates will become effective for Client upon renewal or entry into a new Order Form enabling the Fivetran Products after any updates go into effect. ### 11. MISCELLANEOUS Except as otherwise set forth in these Requirements, the terms of the Agreement, including, without limitation, any disclaimers, limitations of liability and governing law provisions set forth therein, will apply to Client’s use of the Fivetran Products. #### Schedule 1 to the DPA **Annex I to the DPA — Data Processing Description (applicable to Fivetran Products only)** This Annex I forms part of the DPA and describes the processing that the processor will perform on behalf of the controller. **A. LIST OF PARTIES** **Controller(s) / Data exporter(s):** _[Identity and contact details of the controller(s) / data exporter(s) and, where applicable, of its/their data protection officer and/or representative in the European Union]_ **Processor(s) / Data importer(s):** _[Identity and contact details of the processor(s) / data importer(s), including any contact person with responsibility for data protection]_ **B. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSFER** **C. COMPETENT SUPERVISORY AUTHORITY** #### Schedule 2 to the DPA **Annex II to the DPA — Technical and Organisational Security Measures (applicable to Fivetran Products only)** Description of the technical and organisational measures implemented by the processor(s) / data importer(s) (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.

(“**Client**”) and the entity (“**Business Associate**”) that entered into an underlying master agreement with Client that references this BAA, including any active statements of work, in each case as updated from time to time (“**Agreement**”). This BAA supplements the Agreement and is effective as of the same date as the Agreement. Business Associate and Client may be individually referred to as a “**party**” and, collectively, the “**parties**” in this BAA. Client may be the business associate or subcontractor of one or more Covered Entities or have a relationship to one or more entities in such relationships to one or more Covered Entities (“**End-Clients**”). To the extent Business Associate performs certain functions or activities that involve the use or disclosure of any individual’s or Covered Entity’s PHI through its services as a business associate or subcontractor of Client (“**Use**”), this BAA applies to such Use provided applicable law as referenced herein requires the parties to enter into such a BAA. (A) Business Associate is providing services to Client under an underlying agreement (“**Agreement**”), and Client or End-Clients may wish to disclose certain information to Business Associate pursuant to the terms of such Agreement, some of which may constitute Protected Health Information (PHI) under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended (“**HIPAA**”), and the Privacy Rule, Security Rule, Enforcement Rule and Breach Notification Rule set forth at 45 C.F.R.

If Business Associate determines that it is infeasible to return or destroy the PHI upon termination of the Agreement or this BAA (e.g., retention of PHI is necessary to continue Business Associate’s proper management and administration or to carry out Business Associate’s legal obligations), Business Associate shall give notice to Client and any End-Clients who provided the PHI directly to Business Associate and: (a) extend the protections of this BAA to such PHI and (b) limit further uses and disclosures of such PHI to those purposes that make the return or destruction infeasible, for so long as Business Associate maintains such PHI. **6.

If End-Clients provide PHI directly to Business Associate, Business Associate will be responsible for identifying End-Clients’ notice address(es). Nothing in this BAA confers any right, remedy, or obligation upon anyone other than Client and Business Associate. This BAA is the complete and exclusive agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding and replacing all prior agreements, communications, and understandings (written and oral) regarding its subject matter. **11. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR** Business Associate is, for all purposes, an independent contractor, and Business Associate will not, directly or indirectly, act as agent, servant or employee of Client and/or End-Clients or make any commitments or incur any liabilities on behalf of Client and/or End-Clients without express written consent. Nothing in this BAA creates an employment, principal-agent or partner relationship between the parties.

(“**dbt Labs**”) and clients of dbt Labs acting as controllers (dbt Labs together with its relevant clients, “**Customer**”) of the Services, between dbt Labs and the entity (“**SUBCONTRACTOR**”) that entered into an underlying master agreement with dbt Labs that references this DPA, including any active statements of work (“**SOWs**”), in each case as updated from time to time (“**Agreement**”). This DPA supplements the Agreement, has the same effective date (“**Effective Date**”) as the Agreement, and governs SUBCONTRACTOR’s access to and processing, retention, and/or use of Customer Data pursuant to Applicable Law. Unless otherwise defined in this DPA or in the Agreement, all capitalised terms used in this DPA will have the meanings given to them in Section 17 of this DPA. **1. Data Processing.** **1.1 Scope and Roles.** This DPA applies when Customer Data is processed by SUBCONTRACTOR. In this context, SUBCONTRACTOR will act as processor to Customer, who can act either as controller or processor of Customer Data. **1.2 Details of Data Processing.** 1.2.1 **Subject matter.** The subject matter of the data processing under this DPA is Customer Data. 1.2.2 **Duration.** As between SUBCONTRACTOR and Customer, the duration of the data processing under this DPA is determined by Customer. 1.2.3 **Purpose.** The purpose of the data processing under this DPA is the provision of the Services initiated by Customer from time to time. 1.2.4 **Nature of the processing.** Compute, storage and such other Services as described in the Documentation and initiated by Customer from time to time. 1.2.5 **Type of Customer Data.** Customer Data uploaded, provided, transferred or made accessible to SUBCONTRACTOR by Customer. 1.2.6 **Categories of data subjects.** The data subjects could include Customer’s clients, employees, contractors, agents, designees, suppliers and End Users. **1.3 Compliance with Laws**. SUBCONTRACTOR will comply with all laws, rules and regulations (together with data protection and privacy laws, including without limitation the GDPR, the CCPA, other State Laws, and any law, statute, declaration, decree, directive, legislative enactment, order, ordinance, regulation, rule or other binding instrument which implements any of the above or which otherwise relates to data protection, privacy or the use of Personal Data and incorporating any amendments, revisions or modifications, “**Applicable Law**”) applicable and binding on it in the performance of this DPA. **1.4 Ownership and Access**. SUBCONTRACTOR agrees that Customer owns all rights to Customer Data. Except to comply with the Subcontractor Security Standards, SUBCONTRACTOR will not under any circumstances impede, prevent, restrict, block or deny access of Customer to Customer Data. **2. Customer Instructions.** The parties agree that this DPA, the Agreement, and Customer provided instructions via Services constitute Customer’s instructions regarding SUBCONTRACTOR’s processing of Customer Data (“**Instructions**”). SUBCONTRACTOR will process Customer Data only in accordance with Instructions. SUBCONTRACTOR acknowledges that where Customer is acting as a processor, these may be based on the instructions of its controllers. Lawful instructions from dbt Labs’ controllers will be accepted by SUBCONTRACTOR, and SUBCONTRACTOR will process Customer Data according to such instructions. SUBCONTRACTOR will not retain, use, or disclose Customer Data outside the direct business relationship between SUBCONTRACTOR and Customer, including by not combining any Customer Data with other personal information collected or received from any other source, except as permitted by the CCPA; and SUBCONTRACTOR will not sell or share Customer Data or take any action that will place Customer in violation of any Applicable Law. If SUBCONTRACTOR reasonably believes that processing pursuant to Instructions is likely to violate Applicable Law, SUBCONTRACTOR will inform Customer without undue delay, in which event, Customer is entitled to withdraw or modify its Instructions. Customer is entitled to terminate this DPA and the Agreement if SUBCONTRACTOR declines to process pursuant to Customer’s lawful instructions hereunder. Processing outside the scope of this DPA will require a prior written agreement between the Customer and SUBCONTRACTOR. **3. Confidentiality of Customer Data.** SUBCONTRACTOR will not access or use, or disclose to any third party, any Customer Data, except, in each case, as necessary to perform the Services, or as necessary to comply with the law or a valid and binding order of a governmental body (such as a subpoena or court order). If a governmental body sends SUBCONTRACTOR a demand for Customer Data, SUBCONTRACTOR will attempt to redirect the governmental body to request that data directly from Customer. As part of this effort, SUBCONTRACTOR may provide Customer’s basic business contact information to the governmental body. If compelled to disclose Customer Data to a governmental body, then SUBCONTRACTOR will give Customer reasonable notice of the demand to allow Customer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy unless SUBCONTRACTOR is legally prohibited from doing so. **4. Confidentiality Obligations of Subcontractor Personnel.** During the term hereof,SUBCONTRACTOR will implement and maintain control that restrict its personnel from processing Customer Data without authorisation by SUBCONTRACTOR pursuant to the Subcontractor Security Standards. SUBCONTRACTOR provides appropriate training annually and procures appropriate contractual obligations of its personnel that effectuate its confidentiality, data protection and data security obligations. **5. Security of Data Processing** **5.1** **Technical and Organisational Measures**. Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing, as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, SUBCONTRACTOR has implemented and will maintain or exceed appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including the measures set out in the Subcontractor Security Standards. **5.2** **Subcontractor Employees and Personnel.** SUBCONTRACTOR shall ensure that any employees or other personnel have agreed in writing to protect the confidentiality and security of Customer Data (as applicable). **6. Subprocessing.** **6.1 Authorised Subprocessors.** Customer provides general authorisation to SUBCONTRACTOR’s use of subprocessors to provide lawful processing activities on Customer Data on behalf of Customer (“**Subprocessors**”) in accordance with this Section 6 to the extent SUBCONTRACTOR notifies Customer within 30 days of the Effective Date of this DPA, identifies Subprocessors that SUBCONTRACTOR currently engages, and specifies the Subprocessor’s name and address, the services provided, and the region in which the Subprocessor provides its services. Customer may object to the engagement of any such initial Subprocessor for a period of 30 days after receiving such notice from SUBCONTRACTOR. Additionally, at least 60 days before SUBCONTRACTOR engages an additional or new Subprocessor, SUBCONTRACTOR will notify dbt Labs of the proposed change, and Customer may object to the engagement of any such additional or new Subprocessor during such 60 day period. Where Customer objects to a Subprocessor, (a) SUBCONTRACTOR may propose moving the relevant Customer Data to an alternate Subprocessor and (b) SUBCONTRACTOR shall, within a reasonable time following receipt of such written request, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Subprocessor does not process any of the Customer Data until the move, or if such alternate Subprocessor is not feasible, available and/or acceptable to Customer, Customer may: (i) terminate the Agreement for breach pursuant to its terms; (ii) cease using the affected part of the Service for which SUBCONTRACTOR has engaged the Subprocessor; or (iii) change to an alternate SUBCONTRACTOR Region where SUBCONTRACTOR has not engaged the Subprocessor. **6.2 Subprocessor Obligations.** Where SUBCONTRACTOR authorises a Subprocessor as described in Section 6.1: (i) SUBCONTRACTOR will restrict the Subprocessor’s access to Customer Data only to what is necessary to provide or maintain the Services in accordance with the Documentation, and SUBCONTRACTOR will prohibit the Subprocessor from accessing Customer Data for any other purpose; (ii) SUBCONTRACTOR will enter into a written agreement with the Subprocessor and, to the extent that the Subprocessor performs SUBCONTRACTOR’s data processing hereunder or under the Agreement, SUBCONTRACTOR will impose on the Subprocessor substantially similar contractual obligations that SUBCONTRACTOR has under this DPA and the Agreement; and (iii) SUBCONTRACTOR will remain responsible for compliance with its obligations under this DPA and for any acts or omissions of the Subprocessor as if they were the acts and omissions of SUBCONTRACTOR. **7. Subcontractor Assistance with Data Subject Requests.** SUBCONTRACTOR will assist Customer in fulfilling reasonable requests by Customer for assistance meeting its obligations to respond to data subjects’ requests under the Applicable Law. If a data subject makes a request to SUBCONTRACTOR, SUBCONTRACTOR will forward such request to Customer without undue delay once SUBCONTRACTOR has identified that the request is from a data subject for whom Customer is responsible. **8. CPRA Cooperation.** To the extent legally required, with respect to Customer Data on its systems, SUBCONTRACTOR will cooperate with Customer in responding to verifiable consumer requests by, for example: (a) providing responsive personal information in its possession obtained during the relationship to Customer; (b) deleting Customer Data and, if applicable, notifying downstream entities about the deletion request; and (c) permitting the correction of inaccurate information. **9. Security Incident Notification.** **9.1 Security Incident.** SUBCONTRACTOR will (a) notify Customer of a Security Incident within twenty-four (24) hours after becoming aware of the Security Incident, and (b) investigate the Security Incident and provide such reasonable assistance to the Customer (and any law enforcement or Regulator) as required to investigate the Security Incident, (c) take steps to remedy any noncompliance by SUBCONTRACTOR with this DPA, and (d) take any other measures appropriate to address the Security Incident, including without limitation measures reasonably requested by Customer to remediate and mitigate any adverse effects resulting from the Security Incident. **9.2 Subcontractor Assistance.** To enable Customer to provide notice of a Security Incident to supervisory authorities or data subjects (as applicable), SUBCONTRACTOR will cooperate with and assist Customer by including in the notification under Section 9.1 (a) such information about the Security Incident as SUBCONTRACTOR is able to disclose to Customer, taking into account the nature of the processing, the information available to SUBCONTRACTOR, and any restrictions on disclosing the information, such as confidentiality. **9.3 Unsuccessful Security Incidents.** Customer agrees that an unsuccessful Security Incident will not be subject to this Section 9. An unsuccessful Security Incident is one that results in no unauthorised access to Customer Data or to any of SUBCONTRACTOR’s equipment or facilities storing Customer Data, and could include, without limitation, pings and other broadcast attacks on firewalls or edge servers, port scans, unsuccessful log-on attempts, denial of service attacks, packet sniffing (or other unauthorised access to traffic data that does not result in access beyond headers) or similar incidents. **9.4 Communication.** Notification(s) of Security Incidents, if any, will be delivered via email to one or more of Customer’s contacts or administrators, an additional copy sent to legal@dbtlabs.com. **10. Subcontractor Certifications and Audits.** **10.1 Subcontractor ISO-Certification, SOC Reports and Vulnerability Testing.** Upon Company’s request, and provided that the parties have an applicable NDA in place, Subcontractor will make available at a minimum the following documents and information: (i) the certificates issued for ISO 27001 and the ISO 27701 or the international equivalent; (ii) the System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type II Report and HIPAA Report or the international equivalent; (iii) a business continuity plan that aligns with industry standards; (iv) evidence of periodic (but at least annually), manual and automated vulnerability testing by an accredited third party performed (including penetration testing based on recognized industry best practices) on all Subcontractor internet-facing networks, systems, software, and devices used to access Company Data, which shall include a statement of opinion from an accredited third party for vulnerability and penetration testing completed on Subcontractor internet facing systems; and Subcontractor further agrees that Subcontractor will notify Company within 72 hours if Subcontractor identifies a vulnerability that has been compromised and is a risk to Company’s implementation of any Services or Deliverables provided by Subcontractor to Company under the Agreement and will promptly provide remediation steps and patching instructions to address the vulnerability and risk; and (v) other reports/documentation describing controls implemented by Subcontractor that update, replace or are substantially equivalent to such certificates, plans, and/or reports. **10.2 Subcontractor Annual Audits.** SUBCONTRACTOR’s use of external auditors will verify the adequacy of its security measures, including the security of any physical locations from which SUBCONTRACTOR provides the Services, if applicable. Audits: (a) will be performed at least annually; (b) will be performed according to ISO 27001 standards or such other alternative standards that are substantially equivalent to ISO 27001; (c) will be performed by independent third party security professionals at SUBCONTRACTOR’s selection and expense; and (d) will result in the generation of an audit report (“**Report**”), which will be SUBCONTRACTOR’s Confidential Information. **10.3 Audit Reports.** At Customer’s written request, and provided that the parties have written confidentiality protections in place, SUBCONTRACTOR will provide Customer with a copy of the Report so that Customer can reasonably confirm SUBCONTRACTOR’s compliance with its obligations under this DPA. **10.4 Privacy Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation.** Taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to SUBCONTRACTOR, SUBCONTRACTOR will assist Customer in complying with Customer’s obligations in respect of data protection impact assessments and prior consultation, by providing the information SUBCONTRACTOR makes available under this Section 10. **11. Customer Audits.** SUBCONTRACTOR will, upon reasonable prior written request from the Customer, allow for and contribute to inspections and/or audits, including providing relevant information reasonably requested as necessary to demonstrate SUBCONTRACTOR’s compliance with Applicable Law, this DPA and/or inspections, and conducted by Customer or an independent third party auditor appointed by Customer, in possession of the required professional qualifications and bound by a duty of confidentiality provided (i) such audits or inspections are not conducted more than once per year (unless required by a Regulator or in the event of a Security Incident); (ii) are conducted only during normal business hours; and (iii) are limited to determining compliance by SUBCONTRACTOR with its obligations hereunder. SUBCONTRACTOR shall reimburse Customer any reasonable fees or costs incurred by Customer in conducting (or arranging the conduct of) any audits where SUBCONTRACTOR is found by Customer or the independent auditor, acting reasonably, to be in material violation of this DPA. **12. Transfers of Personal Data.** **12.1 Regions.** If available and applicable as indicated in the SOW, ordering document and/or Agreement, Customer can specify a certain limited geographical location where Customer Data will be processed (“**Region**”), including without limitation Regions in the EEA (Germany), the U.S. (Virginia), or Australia (Sydney). In such event, SUBCONTRACTOR will not transfer Customer Data from the selected Region except to an authorised Subprocessor or as directed by Customer, as permitted in writing by Customer, or as necessary to comply with the law or binding order of a governmental body. **12.2 Application of Standard Contractual Clauses.** Subject to Section 12.3 and to the extent SUBCONTRACTOR (acting as a data importer) processes Customer Data in a Third Country ( “**Data Transfer**”), SUBCONTRACTOR shall, and shall procure that any of its affiliates, contractors, and Subprocessors shall, comply with the data importer’s obligations set out in the Controller to Processor Clauses, which are hereby incorporated into and form part of this DPA. 12.2.1 When Customer is acting as a controller, the Controller-to-Processor Clauses will apply to a Data Transfer. Customer will comply with the data exporter’s obligations in such Controller to Processor Clauses. 12.2.2 Where dbt Labs acts as a processor, the Processor-to-Processor Clauses may apply to a Data Transfer. dbt Labs acknowledges that it may not be possible for SUBCONTRACTOR to know the identity of dbt Labs’s controllers because SUBCONTRACTOR may have no direct relationship with dbt Labs’s controllers; and, therefore, in such a circumstance, dbt Labs may fulfil SUBCONTRACTOR’s obligations to dbt Labs’s controllers under SCCs between dbt Labs and its controllers, where legally required and/or applicable. In the alternative, where SUBCONTRACTOR knows the identity of dbt Labs’s controllers, SUBCONTRACTOR will fulfil its obligations to Customer. 12.2.3 With respect to any Standard Contractual Clauses required by law of the parties, the parties will negotiate in good faith to determine the appropriate template and agree upon its provisions, and the appropriate template will be deemed to be executed as of the date hereof. Further, with respect to the GDPR Controller to Processor Clauses, as applicable (and adapted as necessary or required by law): (a) for the purposes of Annex I.A of such Controller to Processor Clauses, the Data Exporter is a data controller and the Data Importer is a data processor, and the name, address, contact person’s details and relevant activities for each of them is as set out in the Agreement; (b) for the purposes of Appendix 1 or Annex I/I.B (as relevant) of such Controller to Processor Clauses, Section 1.2 of this DPA shall apply; (c) for the purposes of Appendix 2 of Annex II (as relevant) of such Controller to Processor Clauses, the security measures set out in Annexes I and II of this DPA shall apply; and (d) if applicable, for the purposes of: (i) Clause 7 (Docking Clause), this is optional and deleted; (ii) Clause 9 of such Controller to Processor Clauses, Option 2 (“General written authorization”) is deemed to be selected and the notice period specified in Section 9.1 of this DPA shall apply; (iii) clause 11(a) of such Controller to Processor Clauses, the optional wording in relation to independent dispute resolution is deemed to be omitted; (iv) Clause 13 (a) (First Paragraph Option) and Annex I.C, the competent supervisory authority shall be the supervisory authority of the EU member state where the Subscriber is established or where its local representative is appointed; (v) Clause 17, Option 1 is deemed to be selected and the governing law shall be Ireland and (vi) Clause 18, the competent courts shall be Ireland. **12.3 Alternative Transfer Mechanism.** The Standard Contractual Clauses will not apply to a Data Transfer if SUBCONTRACTOR has adopted Binding Corporate Rules for Processors or an alternative recognised compliance standard for lawful Data Transfers. **12.4 Subprocessor Compliance**. To the extent SUBCONTRACTOR permits Subprocessors to Process Customer Data in any Third Country: (a) SUBCONTRACTOR shall execute the Processor to Processor Clauses, where applicable, with any relevant sub-processor or subcontractor it appoints on behalf of the Customer; or (b) if the Processor to Processor Clauses are not applicable, the parties agree to execute the relevant Controller to Processor Clauses with the processing details set out in Section 1.2 of this DPA shall apply to Appendix 1 and the technical and organizational measures set out in Annexes I and II of this DPA shall apply to Appendix 2, with any relevant Subprocessor it appoints on behalf of the Customer. **12.5 Conflicts**.

Customer Data will be retained by Subcontractor only for so long as it is reasonably required to provide Services and comply with obligations under the Agreement. Upon written request by Customer or at least within 21 days following the Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, SUBCONTRACTOR will return or delete Customer Data, without undue delay, except as required for legal, fiduciary or tax purposes or by SUBCONTRACTOR’s consultants, advisors, auditors, attorneys, investors, bankers, payment processors, regulatory bodies, tax authorities, when compelled by court order, or as otherwise needed to fulfill SUBCONTRACTOR’s duties under this Agreement. Any Customer Data so retained will remain subject to the confidentiality provisions herein and in the Agreement and will be used solely by SUBCONTRACTOR for such purposes as described herein until returned or deleted, and such confidentiality obligations will survive termination or expiration hereof. **15. Duties to Inform.** **15.1 Insolvency.** Where Customer Data becomes subject to confiscation during bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, or similar measures by third parties while being processed by SUBCONTRACTOR, SUBCONTRACTOR will inform Customer without undue delay.
