Scope
Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”, “we”, “our”) has developed this Applicant Privacy Notice (the “Notice”) to outline the steps we take to respect for the privacy of our job applicants. This policy describes the personal information we collect, use, and disclose about individuals who apply for a position of employment. This is also to provide you with notice at or before the point at which we collect personal information from you informing you of what information we collect, how we use it, how long we retain it, and whether we sell it or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes (we do not).
This Applicant Privacy Notice applies only to your interaction with the Company in the capacity of a job applicant. It does not apply to other contexts, such as if you are hired for employment, in which case you would be provided access to a privacy policy that covers information collected in the employment context, or if you visit our public-facing website or engage in transactions with the Company in other capacities (as a patient, customer, or independent contractor), in which case the privacy policy on our website https://www.intelliatx.com/privacy-policy/ would apply to those interactions.
Artificial Intelligence
As part of our initial screening process, we may use an Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool to compare the skills and job titles from your resume with the job description, using machine learning or AI based on their contextual meaning and relevancy. We do not rely on this output to make any employment decisions. We manually review the output and candidate.
Collection of Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information
When you apply for a position or interact with us regarding potential job openings, we may collect Personal Information from you in a variety of different situations and using a variety of different methods, including, but not limited to, on our website, your mobile device, through email, in physical locations, through written applications, through the mail, and/or over the telephone or via video conferencing applications like Teams. We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to process your application for employment, etc. and in accordance with the Company’s data retention schedule. We may retain your personal information for longer if it is necessary to comply with our legal obligations or reporting obligations, resolve disputes, or as permitted or required by applicable law. We may also retain your personal information in a deidentified or aggregated form so that it can no longer be associated with you. To determine the appropriate retention period for your personal information, we consider various factors such as the amount, nature, and sensitivity of your information; the potential risk of unauthorized access, use or disclosure; the purposes for which we collect or process your personal information; and applicable legal requirements. Personal Information does not include certain categories of information, such as publicly available information from government records, deidentified or aggregated consumer information, and information subject to HIPAA or the California Confidential Medical Information Act.
Generally, we may collect the following categories of personal information from or about job applicants.

- We restrict access to private information to those who need such access in the course of their duties for us.
Rights Under the CCPA
This section of the Privacy Policy applies only to California residents. If you are a California resident, you have the following rights pursuant to the CCPA:
- Right to Know. The right to request, up to 2 times in a 12-month period, that we identify to you (1) the categories of personal information we have collected, shared or sold about you, (2) the categories of sources from which the personal information was collected, (3) the business purpose for which we use this information, and (4) the categories of third parties with whom we disclose or have disclosed your personal information;

- Right to Delete. The right to request, up to 2 times in a 12-month period, that we delete personal information that we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions;
- Right to Correct. The right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information (to the extent such an inaccuracy exists) that we maintain about you;
- The right to designate an authorized agent to submit one of the above requests on your behalf. See below for how you can designate an authorized agent; and
- The right to not be discriminated or retaliated against for exercising any of the above rights.
You Can Submit Any of the Above Types of Requests by Any of the Options Below:
- Email us at [email protected]
- Send a written request to Intellia Therapeutics, Inc., 40 Erie Street, Cambridge, MA 02139, Attn: General Counsel (Applicant Privacy Notice)
How We Will Verify That it is Really You Submitting the Request:
If you are a California resident, when you submit a Right to Know, Right to Access, Right to Delete, or Right to Correct request through one of the methods provided above, we will ask you to provide some information in order to verify your identity and respond to your request. Specifically, we will ask you to verify information that can be used to link your identity to particular information in our possession, which depends on the nature of your relationship and interaction with us.
Responding to your Right to Know, Right to Access, Right to Delete, and Right to Correct Requests
Upon receiving a verifiable request from a California resident, we will confirm receipt of the request no later than 10 business days after receiving it. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable request within forty-five (45) calendar days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to an additional 45 calendar days, or 90 calendar days total from the date we receive your request), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
For a request to correct inaccurate personal information, we will accept, review, and consider any documentation that you provide, and we may require that you provide documentation to rebut our own documentation that the personal information is accurate. You should make a good-faith effort to provide us with all necessarily information at the time that you make the request to correct. We may deny a request to correct if we have a good-faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to correct is fraudulent or abusive. If we deny your request to correct, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.
If You Have an Authorized Agent:
If you are a California resident, you can authorize someone else as an authorized agent who can submit a request on your behalf. To do so, you must either (a) execute a valid, verifiable, and notarized power of attorney, or (b) provide other written, signed authorization that we can then verify. When we receive a request submitted on your behalf by an authorized agent who does not have a power of attorney, that person will be asked to provide written proof that they have your permission to act on your behalf. We will also contact you and ask you for information to verify your own identity directly and not through your authorized agent. We may deny a request from an authorized agent if the agent does not provide your signed permission demonstrating that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.
We will not retaliate against you for exercising any of your rights under the CCPA.
