Security Breach.
1. Notification. In the event that Vendor becomes reasonably aware of any Security Breach, Vendor will use good faith efforts to notify Customer of the Security Breach without undue delay, but in no even later than five (5) business days after Vendor becomes reasonably aware of the Security Breach.

2. Manner of Notification. Notification of a Security Breach, if any, will be delivered to one or more of Customer’s business, technical or administrative contacts by any means that Vendor selects, including via electronic mail. It is Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure that it maintains accurate contact information with Vendor at all times.

ANNEX B TO DPA

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA SUBJECT TO EUROPEAN DATA PROTECTION LAWS

The provisions of this Annex B will apply to the Processing by Vendor of Personal Data under the Agreement, but only to the extent that the Processing of Personal Data is subject to European Data Protection Laws. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Annex B and the DPA or the Agreement, the provisions of this Annex B shall control.

Processing of Personal Data.
1. Roles of the Parties. When Processing Personal Data that is subject to European Data Protection Laws in accordance with Customer’s instructions, the Parties acknowledge that Customer is the Controller of the Personal Data and Vendor is the Processor.
2. Legality of Processing Instructions. Vendor shall inform Customer in writing, including by electronic mail, if it believes that an instruction of Customer relating to the Processing of Personal Data infringes on European Data Protection Laws.
Subprocessors.
1. Objection to New Subprocessors. If Customer has a reasonable objection to the addition of a new Subprocessor to the Subprocessor List in accordance with Section 3.2 of the DPA, Customer must notify Vendor of the objection in writing within ten (10) calendar days of the addition of the new Subprocessor to the Subprocessor List. If Customer does not notify Vendor in writing of an objection within ten (10) calendar days, Customer waives any objection that it may have had to the new Subprocessor. If Customer submits an objection in accordance with this Section 2, the Parties agree to discuss Customer’s concerns in good faith with a view toward achieving a commercially reasonable resolution. If no such resolution can be reached within thirty (30) calendar days, Vendor may, at its option, either (a) withdraw the objectionable Subprocessor and either perform the subcontracted services itself, or appoint a new Subprocessor in accordance with the terms of Section 3.2 of the DPA, or (b) permit Customer to suspend or terminate the Services and the Agreement in accordance with the termination provisions of the Agreement without liability to either party (but Customer must pay any fees incurred for Services actually performed by Vendor prior to suspension or termination in accordance with the terms of the Agreement). The parties agree that by complying with this Section 2, Vendor fulfills its obligations under Section 9 of the EU and U.K. Standard Contractual Clauses.
  1. Subprocessor Contractual Terms. Vendor will contractually impose data protection obligations on its Subprocessors that are equivalent to those data protection obligations imposed on Vendor under the DPA and this Annex B.
  2. Liability for Acts/Omissions of Subprocessors. Vendor shall remain liable for the acts and omissions of its Subprocessors to the same extent that Vendor would be liable if it performed the services of each Subprocessor directly under the terms of this DPA.
Data Subject Requests. Taking into account the nature of the Processing, Vendor shall assist Customer by appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as it is possible, for the fulfillment of Customer’s obligation to respond to a Data Subject Request.
Data Protection Impact Assessment. To the extent required under applicable Data Protection Laws, Vendor shall (taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Vendor) provide all reasonably requested information regarding the Services to enable Customer to carry out data protection impact assessments or prior consultations with Supervisory Authorities as required by Data Protection Laws. Vendor shall comply with the foregoing by: (i) complying with Section 5 (Audits) of this Annex B; (ii) providing the information contained in the Agreement, including this DPA; and (iii) if the foregoing subsections (i) and (ii) are insufficient for Customer to comply with such obligations, upon request, providing additional reasonable assistance (at Customer’s expense).
Audits.
1. Audits Generally. Vendor will make information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with this DPA available to Customer. Customer may audit Vendor’s compliance with its obligations under this DPA up to once per year and on such other occasions as may be required by applicable Data Protection Laws, including where mandated by Customer’s Supervisory Authority. Any audit must be conducted during regular business hours, subject to the agreed final audit plan as set forth in Section 5.3 of this Annex B and subject to Vendor’s safety, security or other relevant policies, and may not unreasonably interfere with Vendor’s business activities.
2. Third Party Auditors. If a third party is to conduct an audit under Section 5.1 of this Annex B, Vendor may object to the auditor if the auditor is, in Vendor’s reasonable opinion, a competitor of Vendor. Such objection by Vendor will require Customer to appoint another auditor or conduct the audit itself. Customer will be responsible for all fees charged by any auditor appointed by Customer to execute any audit under this Section 5.
3. Audit Plan. Aside from an audit of a Supervisory Authority, to request an audit, Customer must submit a detailed proposed audit plan to Vendor at least thirty (30) calendar days in advance of the proposed audit date and any third party auditor must sign a customary non-disclosure agreement mutually acceptable to the Parties (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld) providing for the confidential treatment of all information exchanged in connection with the audit and any reports regarding the results or findings thereof. The proposed audit plan must describe the scope, duration and start date of the audit. Vendor will review the proposed audit plan and provide Customer with any concerns or questions (for example, any request for information that could compromise Vendor’s security, privacy, employment or other relevant policies). Vendor will work cooperatively with Customer to agree on a final audit plan. Nothing in this Section 5.3 shall require Vendor to disclose any information where such disclosure would result in a breach of any duty of confidentiality.
4. Third Party Audit Reports. If the controls or measures to be assessed in the requested audit are addressed in an SOC 2 Type 2, ISO, NIST or similar audit report performed by a qualified third party auditor within twelve (12) months of Customer’s audit request and Vendor has confirmed there are no known material changes in the controls audited, Customer agrees to accept such report in lieu of requesting an audit of such controls or measures.
5. Subprocessor Information. Nothing in this Section 5 shall be construed to require Vendor to furnish more information about its Subprocessors in connection with such audits than such Subprocessors make available to Vendor without restriction on further disclosure.
6. Audit Reports. Customer will promptly notify Vendor of any non-compliance discovered during the course of an audit and provide Vendor any audit reports generated in connection with any audit under this Section 5 unless prohibited by applicable Data Protection Laws or otherwise instructed by a Supervisory Authority. Customer may use the audit reports only for the purposes of meeting Customer’s regulatory audit requirements and/or confirming compliance with the requirements of this DPA. If any audit reveals that Vendor is not in compliance with the provisions of this DPA and/or applicable Data Protection Laws, Vendor shall take commercially reasonable corrective actions including temporary work-arounds reasonably necessary to comply with the provisions of this DPA and/or applicable Data Protection Laws.

    1. Vendor shall inform the relevant governmental authority that Vendor is a Processor of the Personal Data and that Customer has not authorized Vendor to disclose the Personal Data to the governmental authority, and inform the relevant governmental authority that any and all requests or demands for access to Personal Data should therefore be notified to or served upon Customer in writing.
