1.5 In the event of a conflict between any provisions of the Agreement and the provisions of this Data Processing Agreement, the provisions of this Data Processing Agreement shall prevail.

1.6 An overview of the categories of Personal Data, the categories of Data Subjects, and the nature and purposes for which the Personal Data are being processed is provided in Exhibits D and E.

2. The Data Controller and the Data Processor

2.1 The Parties shall at all times comply with their respective obligations under the Data Protection Laws and this Data Processing Agreement in connection with the Processing of Personal Data.

2.2 The Data Controller will determine the scope, purposes, and manner by which the Personal Data may be accessed or Processed by the Data Processor.

2.3 The Data Processor will only Process the Personal Data to the extent that this is required for the provision of the Services or as otherwise needed to perform its obligations under the terms of the Agreement and this Data Processing Agreement, and otherwise in accordance with the documented instructions of the Data Controller. The Data Processor shall not sell or share Personal Data, or otherwise retain, use, or disclose the Personal Data for any purpose other than for the business purposes specified in Agreement, which shall include any documented instructions from the Data Controller. The Data Processor shall immediately notify the Data Controller if, in its opinion, any instruction infringes Data Protection Law, unless legally prohibited from doing so.

2.4 The Data Controller warrants and undertakes that it has all necessary rights and legally required consents to provide the Personal Data to the Data Processor for the Processing to be performed in relation to the Services and otherwise in connection with the Agreement, and the Data Controller further warrants and undertakes that all Personal Data Processed by either Party under or in connection with this Data Processing Agreement has been obtained fairly and lawfully and, in all respects in compliance with Data Protection Law.

2.5 To the extent that the Data Controller is part of a group of companies, it confirms it has the authority to bind all entities in the group of companies to this Data Processing Agreement.

2.6 Where permitted by Data Protection Law, Data Processor may Process Personal Data: (i) for its internal uses to build or improve the quality of its services; (ii) to detect security Incidents; and (iii) to protect against fraudulent or illegal activity.

2.7 Data Processor may: (i) compile aggregated and/or de-identified information in connection with providing the Services, provided that such information cannot reasonably be used to identify Data Controller or any data subject to whom Personal Data relates (“Aggregated and/or De-Identified Data”); and (ii) use Aggregated and/or De-Identified Data for its lawful business purposes.

3. Confidentiality

3.1 Without prejudice to any existing contractual arrangements between the Parties, the Data Processor shall treat all Personal Data as confidential, and shall inform all its employees, staff, agents and/or approved sub-processors engaged in processing the Personal Data of the confidential nature of the Personal Data. The Data Processor shall ensure that all such persons or parties have signed an appropriate confidentiality agreement, are otherwise bound to a duty of confidentiality, or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

4. Security

4.1 Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the Data Controller and Data Processor shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to ensure a level of security of the Processing of Personal Data appropriate to the risk. These measures shall include, at a minimum, the security measures described in Exhibit A.

5. Improvements to security

5.1 The Parties acknowledge that security requirements are constantly changing, and that effective security requires frequent evaluation and regular improvements of outdated security measures. The Data Processor will therefore evaluate the measures as implemented in accordance with Article 4 on an on-going basis 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 Data Protection Law or by data protection authorities of competent jurisdiction.

5.2 Where an amendment to this Data Processing Agreement is required following or as part of an update to security measures, as per Section 5.1 above, or in light of changes to Data Protection Law, from time to time, the Parties shall negotiate as needed an amendment to this Data Processing Agreement in good faith.

6. Audit rights

6.1 Upon the Data Controller’s reasonable request, the Data Processor shall provide for review, all relevant and necessary material, documentation, and information as required in order to demonstrate the Data Processor’s compliance with the Data Protection Law and this Data Processing Agreement.

6.2 In the event that Data Controller reasonably believes that the information referred to in Article 1 indicate any material non-compliance by the Data Processor under the Data Protection Law and/or this Data Processing Agreement, then the Data Controller may give the Data Processor not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of its intention to undertake an audit, which may include inspections of the Data Processor’s premises, provided that:

6.2.1 if a third party is to conduct the audit, the third party must not be a competitor of the Data Processor, and the third party must execute a written confidentiality agreement acceptable to the Data Processor or otherwise be bound by a statutory or legal confidentiality obligation;

6.2.2 such audit shall be limited to once per calendar year, unless the audit reveals material non-compliance with this Data Processing Agreement;

6.2.3 the audit must be conducted during regular business hours at the applicable facility, in a manner which does not unreasonably interfere with the Data Processor’s business activities; and

6.2.4 unless the Data Processor expressly agrees otherwise, the audit shall not exceed three (3) business days in duration.

6.3 Upon completion of the audit pursuant to Article 2, the Data Processor will provide the Data Controller with a copy of the audit report, which is subject to the confidentiality terms of the Agreement. The Data Controller may use the audit reports only for the purposes of meeting the Data Controller’s legal obligations pursuant to Data Protection Law and/or confirming compliance with the requirements of this Data Processing Agreement.

6.4 Each party will bear its own costs in relation to the provision of information or an audit conducted pursuant to this Article.

7. International Data Transfers

7.1 Data Controller authorizes the Data Processor to transfer Personal Data across international borders, including from the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and/or the United Kingdom to the United States. If Personal Data originating in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and/or Switzerland is transferred by Data Controller to Data Processor in a country that has not been found to provide an adequate level of protection under applicable Data Protection Law, the parties agree that the transfer shall be governed by the Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses (Module Two) provided by the European Commission pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (“Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses”), as supplemented by Exhibit B attached hereto, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. If Personal Data originating in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and/or Switzerland is transferred by Data Processor to Data Controller in a country that has not been found to provide an adequate level of protection under applicable Data Protection Law, the parties agree that the transfer shall be governed by the Processor to Controller Standard Contractual Clauses (Module Four) provided by the European Commission (“Processor to Controller Standard Contractual Clauses”), as supplemented by Exhibit C attached hereto, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. Each Party’s execution of the Agreement shall be a signature to both the Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses and the Processor to Controller Standard Contractual Clauses to the extent each set of clauses applies hereunder.

7.2 Data Processor agrees that it has provided true, complete, and accurate responses to the Data Transfer Impact Assessment Questionnaire attached hereto as Exhibit D. By executing the Agreement, Data Controller agrees that the responses to the Data Controller Data Transfer Impact Assessment Questionnaire attached hereto as Exhibit E are true, complete, and accurate.

7.3 Taking into account the information and obligations set forth in this Data Processing Agreement and, as may be the case for a Party, such Party’s independent research, to the Parties’ knowledge, the Personal Data originating in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and/or the United Kingdom that is transferred pursuant to the Standard Contractual Clauses which apply under this Data Processing Agreement to a country that has not been found to provide an adequate level of protection under applicable Data Protection Law is afforded a level of protection that is essentially equivalent to that guaranteed by applicable Data Protection Law.

8. Personal Data Breach notification and assistance

8.1 When the Data Processor becomes aware of a Personal Data Breach, it shall promptly notify the Data Controller within 24 hours about the same, and shall reasonably cooperate with the Data Controller in order to enable the Data Controller to take suitable further steps in respect of the Personal Data Breach as required by Data Protection Law.

8.2 Any notifications made to the Data Controller pursuant to this Article 8 shall be addressed to the employee of the Data Controller whose contact details are provided in the Agreement.

The Data Processor shall inform the Data Controller of any addition or replacement of such sub-processors giving the Data Controller an opportunity to object to such changes. If the Data Controller sends the Data Processor a written objection notice in a timely manner (but in any event within 30 days of being notified), setting forth a reasonable basis for objection, the Parties will make a good-faith effort to resolve Data Controller’s objection. In the absence of a resolution, the Data Processor will, subject to Article 3 below, make commercially reasonable efforts to provide Data Controller with the same level of service described in the Agreement, without using the proposed sub-processor to process Data Controller’s Personal Data. If the Data Processor’s efforts are not successful within a reasonable time, each party may terminate the portion of the service which cannot be provided without the sub-processor, and the Data Controller will be entitled to a pro-rated refund of the applicable service fees.

9.3 The Data Controller understands and acknowledges that the Data Processor has agreed upon certain prices and fees with the Data Controller based on the assumption that it would be able to utilize the sub-processors proposed at https://workforcesoftware.force.com/customers/s/article/Third-parties-sub-processors-who-store-or-process-customer-data, as updated from time to time. In the event Data Controller objects to Data Processor utilizing one or more of those sub-processors in accordance with Article 2, Data Processor reserves the right to increase any prices or fees previously agreed upon between the Parties.

9.4 Notwithstanding any authorisation by the Data Controller within the meaning of the preceding Article, the Data Processor shall remain fully liable vis-à-vis the Data Controller for the performance of any such sub-processor that fails to fulfil its data protection related obligations.

9.5 The Data Processor shall ensure that each sub-processor is bound by data protection obligations substantively equivalent to those imposed on the Data Processor as applicable under this Data Processing Agreement.

10. Returning or destruction of Personal Data

11.2 Taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to the Data Processor, the Data Processor shall provide commercially reasonable assistance to the Data Controller in ensuring compliance with its data security related obligations, as well as other Data Controller obligations under Data Protection Law that are relevant to this Data Processing Agreement, including notifications to a supervisory authority, other regulator, or to Data Subjects, the process of undertaking a Data Protection Impact Assessment, and with prior consultations with supervisory authorities.

12. Duration and termination

12.1 Unless expressly agreed otherwise, this Data Processing Agreement shall come into effect on the date on which the Agreement becomes effective.

12.2 Termination of this Data Processing Agreement shall not discharge the Data Processor from its confidentiality obligations pursuant to Article 3.

14.4 An amendment or change to the terms of this Data Processing Agreement, will be effective when it is documented and agreed in writing by the Parties, and signed by and for and behalf of each of the Parties by their respective authorised signatories.

14.5 No failure or delay by either Party to exercise any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver of that right, power or remedy nor shall any partial exercise preclude any further exercise of the same, or of any other right, power or remedy.
