6. Sub-Processing

6.1     The Client hereby provides its general authorisation to the Vendor to engage any Sub-processor selected by the Vendor provided that the Vendor shall use only Sub-processors providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that processing will meet the requirements of Data Protection Laws and this Addendum.

Each such notice shall include details of the processing activities to be undertaken by the additional or replacement Sub-processor and the identity and location of the Sub-processor.

6.3.2    If the Client objects to the appointment or replacement of a Sub-processor in writing (which shall include Client’s reasonable data protection grounds for such objection) within ten (10) days after the notice under Section 6.3.1, the Vendor may, at its option, suggest a commercially reasonable change, if available, to the Client’s use of the Services so that the relevant Sub-processor is not used in provision of the Services. If Client does not object during such time period, the new Sub-processor(s) shall be deemed accepted.

6.3.3    For the purposes of this Section, notices may be provided electronically.

6.4     The Vendor may replace or appoint a Sub-processor without prior written notice to the Client if the need to do so is urgent and necessary to provide the Services and the reason for the change is beyond the Vendor’s reasonable control. In such event, the Vendor shall notify the Client of the replacement or appointment as soon as reasonably practicable, and the Client shall have the right to object pursuant to Section 6.3.

6.5      With respect to each Sub-processor engaged by the Vendor, the Vendor shall:

6.5.1    include terms in the contract between the Vendor and each Sub-processor which are substantially similar to those set out in this Addendum so far as referred to in Article 28(3) EU GDPR or UK GDPR (as applicable), and shall supervise compliance therewith; and

8. Incident Management

8.1     In the case of a personal data breach involving Protected Data, the Vendor shall without undue delay notify the personal data breach to the Client providing the Client with sufficient information which allows the Client to meet any obligations to report a personal data breach under Data Protection Laws.

8.2     The Vendor shall, at the Client’s request, taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to the Vendor, assist the Client in respect of the personal data breach in order to meet any requirement under Data Protection Laws.

8.3     The Vendor’s obligation to report a personal data breach and assist the Client under this Section 8 will not be construed as an acknowledgment by the Vendor of any fault or liability with respect to the personal data breach.

8.4     The parties agree to coordinate and cooperate in good faith on developing the content of any related public statements or any required notices for the affected persons. The Vendor shall not inform any third party without first obtaining the Client’s prior written consent, unless notification is required by law to which the Vendor is subject, in which case the Vendor shall to the extent permitted by such law inform the Client of that legal requirement, provide a copy of the proposed notification and consider any comments made by the Client before notifying the personal data breach.

9. Data Protection Impact Assessment

9.1     The Vendor shall, at the Client’s request, taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to the Vendor, provide reasonable assistance to the Client with any data protection impact assessments and any consultations with any Supervisory Authority of the Client as may be required in relation to the processing of Protected Data by the Vendor on behalf of the Client.

10. Deletion or Return of Protected Data

10.1     Upon request made by the Client within thirty (30) days of the earlier of: (i) cessation of processing of Protected Data by the Vendor; or (ii) termination of the Order Form, the Vendor shall, at Client’s election, delete all Protected Data or return all

Protected Data to the Client (the latter may be fulfilled by making the Protected Data available to Client for retrieval).

10.2     If the Client does not make an election within such thirty (30) day period, the Vendor shall securely dispose of Protected Data and delete all copies of it (except to the extent that any applicable law requires the Vendor to retain a copy of such Protected Data) and Client acknowledges that the Vendor will have no obligation to maintain or provide such Protected Data.

11. Audit Rights

11.1     The Vendor shall make available to the Client on request all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with this Addendum and Data Protection Laws.

11.2     The Vendor shall permit the Client or another auditor mandated by the Client during normal working hours and on reasonable prior notice to inspect, audit and copy any relevant records, processes and systems in order that the Client may satisfy itself that the provisions of Data Protection Laws and this Addendum are being complied with.

12.1     The Client acknowledges and agrees that the Vendor may, in the course of providing the Services, process, access or store (or permit any Sub-processor to process, access or store) Protected Data outside the UK or EEA (as applicable), provided that such processing takes place in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws.

12.2    Transfers of Protected Data to the Vendor (and any of its Sub-processors) in Canada take place on the basis of European Commission Decision 2002/2/EC that Canada offers an adequate level of data protection.

12.3     In respect of any processing of Protected Data in a country outside of the EEA or UK (as applicable) which is not recognised under Data Protection Laws as having an adequate level of protection, where requested by the Client, the Vendor shall:

12.3.1     if the Protected Data is subject to EU GDPR, enter into the EU Processor SCCs with the Client and, if the processing is carried out by a Sub-processor, enter into the EU Sub-processor SCCs with the relevant Sub-processor; or

12.3.2    if the Protected Data is subject to UK GDPR, enter into (or procure that any Sub-processor enters into) an agreement with the Client (or, where the Client is a processor for its controller customer, with the controller customer) on Standard Contractual Clauses.

12.4     The Client shall ensure that:

12.4.1    the Client is entitled to transfer the Protected Data to the Vendor so that the Vendor may lawfully use, process, and transfer the Protected Data in accordance with the Order Form on the Client’s behalf; and

12.4.2    all transfers of the Protected Data by the Client to the Vendor shall (to the extent required under Data Protection Laws) be effected by way of adequate safeguards and in accordance with Data Protection Laws.

13. Liability

13.1     If a party receives a compensation claim from a person relating to processing of the Protected Data under this Addendum, it shall promptly provide the other party with notice and full details of such claim. The party with conduct of the action shall:

13.1.1     make no admission of liability nor agree to any settlement or compromise of the relevant claim without the prior written consent of the other party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

13.1.2    consult fully with the other party in relation to any such action, but the terms of any settlement or compromise of the claim will be exclusively the decision of the party that is responsible for paying the compensation.
