    1. The terms, “Commission“, “Controller“, “Data Subject“, “Member State“, Personal Data“, “Personal Data Breach“, “Processing” and “Supervisory Authority” shall have the same meaning as in the GDPR, and their cognate terms shall be construed accordingly.
  1. Subject matter of this Data Processing Agreement
    1. This Data Processing Addendum (“DPA”) applies to the processing of personal data in the scope of the Agreement between the parties for the services defined in the Agreement and/or Insertion Order (the “Services”)..
    1. Insofar as the Processor will be processing Controller Personal Data on behalf of the Controller in the course of the performance of the Service Agreement, the terms of this DPA shall apply. An overview of the categories of Personal Data, the types of Data Subjects, and purposes for which the Personal Data are being processed is provided in Annex 2 hereto.

  1. Improvements to Security
    1. The Parties acknowledge that security requirements are constantly changing and that effective security requires frequent evaluation and regular improvements of outdated security measures. The Processor will therefore evaluate the measures as implemented in accordance with Article 4 on an on-going basis and will tighten, supplement and improve these measures in order to maintain compliance with the requirements set out in Article 4. The Parties will negotiate in good faith the cost, if any, to implement material changes required by specific updated security requirements set forth in applicable data protection law or by data protection authorities of competent jurisdiction.

Where an amendment to the Service Agreement is necessary in order to execute a Controller instruction to the Processor to improve security measures as may be required by changes in applicable data protection law from time to time, the Parties shall negotiate an amendment to the Service Agreement in good faith.
  1. Data Transfers
    1. The Standard Contractual Clauses and the additional terms specified in Annex 1 shall apply to (i) legal entity that is not incorporated under one of the countries recognized by The European Commission as a country that offers an adequate level of data protection, on the basis of article 45 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and, (ii) Processor which is not certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield framework; and (iii) all Affiliates of such Processor, the aforementioned entities shall be deemed “data exporters”.
    1. This DPA and the Agreement are Controller’s complete and final documented instructions at the time of signature of the Agreement for the Processing of Personal Data. Any additional or alternate instructions must be agreed upon separately in writing.

  1. Information Obligations and Incident Management
    1. When the Processor becomes aware of an incident that impacts the Processing of the Personal Data that is the subject of the Agreement, it shall promptly notify the Controller about the incident, shall at all times cooperate with the Controller, and shall follow the Controller’s instructions with regard to such incidents, in order to enable the Controller to perform a thorough investigation into the incident, to formulate a correct response, and to take suitable further steps in respect of the incident.

Clause 11

Sub-processing

1. The data importer shall not subcontract any of its processing operations performed on behalf of the data exporter under the Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the sub-processor which imposes the same obligations on the sub-processor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the sub-processor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the sub-processor’s obligations under such agreement.

2. The prior written contract between the data importer and the sub-processor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in paragraph 1 of Clause 6 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the sub-processor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

3. The provisions relating to data protection aspects for sub-processing of the contract referred to in paragraph 1 shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

4. The data exporter shall keep a list of sub-processing agreements concluded under the Clauses and notified by the data importer pursuant to Clause 5 (j), which shall be updated at least once a year. The list shall be available to the data exporter’s data protection supervisory authority.
