But that is not the case there. SaaS's typically don't target a natural person, they target businesses (in EU, self employment is considered business as well).

- bigiain 9y agoThat might work ok for Clearbit's customers - who can send an IP address and either get back a company name or nothing, but I suspect Clearbit have to have some solid legal advice for answers to questions like "What if a customer sends you a home/residential IP address?" I live alone - my ip address is (and has been for a decade or more) static. It without doubt will qualify as Personally Identifying Information.
- TomMarius 9y agoThis is actually very well defined. If the IP address (the contract with ISP to be specific - thus every IP it might provide to the user) is used for business purposes (doesn't matter how much), then it's regarded as business even though it's residential and the businessman lives there.
- beojan 9y agoBased on imhoguy's comment, it looks like only corporations (legal persons) count as businesses.
