  2. [Processing of Customer Personal Data]{.underline}

    1. The parties acknowledge and agree that Customer is the Controller of Customer Personal Data and the Company is the Processor of that data. Company will only Process Customer Personal Data as a Processor on behalf of and in accordance with the Customer's prior written instructions, including with respect to transfers of personal data. Company is hereby instructed to Process Customer Personal Data to the extent necessary to enable Company to provide the Services in accordance with the Agreement. A description of Processing is set forth in [Schedule 1]{.underline}.

    2. If Company cannot process Customer Personal Data in accordance with Customer's instructions due to a legal requirement under applicable law, Company will (i) promptly notify the Customer of such inability, providing a reasonable level of detail as to the instructions with which it cannot comply and the reasons why it cannot comply, to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law; and (ii) cease all Processing of the affected Customer Personal Data (other than merely storing and maintaining the security of the affected Customer Personal Data) until such time as the Customer issues new instructions with which Company is able to comply. If this provision is invoked, Company will not be liable to the Customer under the Agreement for failure to perform the Services until such time as the Customer issues new instructions.

    3. Each of the Customer and Company will comply with their respective obligations under the Data Protection Legislation.

A list of the Company's sub-Processors as at the date of this Addendum is available at [Schedule 4]{.underline}. Company will inform Customer of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of any sub-Processors and Customer will have an opportunity to object to such changes on reasonable grounds within fifteen (15) business days after being notified.

    3. The parties agree that the copies of the Sub-processor agreements that must be provided by Company to Customer pursuant to Clause 9(c) of the EU Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses, if applicable, may have commercial information or clauses unrelated to the EU Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses, removed by Company beforehand; and, that such copies will be provided by Company, in a manner to be determined in its discretion, only upon Customer's written request.

Company will, at the Customer's request and subject to the Customer paying all of Company's fees at prevailing rates, and all expenses, provide the Customer with assistance necessary for the fulfilment of the Customer's obligation to respond to requests for the exercise of Data Subjects' rights. Company shall not respond to such requests without Customer's prior written consent and written instructions. Customer shall be solely responsible for responding to such requests.

  1. [Personal Data Breaches]{.underline}

Company will notify the Customer promptly within thirty-six (36) hours after it becomes aware of any Personal Data Breach affecting any Customer Personal Data. At the Customer's request and subject to the Customer paying all of Company's fees at prevailing rates, and all expenses, Company will promptly provide the Customer with all reasonable assistance necessary to enable the Customer to notify relevant security breaches to the competent data protection authorities and/or affected Data Subjects, if Customer is required to do so under the GDPR. Customer is solely responsible for complying with Personal Data Breach notification requirements applicable to Customer and fulfilling any third-party notification obligations related to any Personal Data Breach.

  1. [Data Protection Impact Assessment; Prior Consultation]{.underline}

Company will, at the Customer's request and subject to the Customer paying all of Company's fees at prevailing rates, and all expenses, provide the Customer with reasonable assistance to facilitate conducting data protection impact assessments and consultation with data protection authorities, if the Customer is required to engage in such activities under the GDPR, and solely to the extent that such assistance is necessary and relates to the Processing by the Company of the Customer Personal Data, taking into account the nature of the Processing and the information available to the Company.

  1. [Information]{.underline}

The Company will, at Customer's request and subject to the Customer paying all of Company's fees at prevailing rates, and all expenses, provide the Customer with all information necessary to enable the Customer to demonstrate compliance with its obligations under the GDPR, and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by the Customer or an auditor mandated by the Customer, to the extent that such information is within Company's control and Company is not precluded from disclosing it by applicable law, a duty of confidentiality, or any other obligation owed to a third party, and provided that such audits shall be carried out with reasonable notice during regular business hours not more often than once per year. The parties agree that the audits described in Clause 8.9 of the EU Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses, if applicable, shall be performed in accordance with this Section 10. Company will immediately inform Customer if, in its opinion, an instruction from Customer infringes the GDPR or other data protection provisions of the European Union, its Member States or the United Kingdom.

  1. [Liability]{.underline}

    1. Each party's liability towards the other party under or in connection with this Addendum will be limited in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement.

    2. The Customer acknowledges that the Company is reliant on the Customer for direction as to the extent to which Company is entitled to Process Customer Personal Data on behalf of Customer in performance of the Services. Consequently the Company will not be liable under the Agreement for any claim brought by a Data Subject arising from any action or omission by the Company, to the extent that such action or omission resulted from the Customer's instructions or from Customer's failure to comply with its obligations under the applicable data protection law.

  2. [Requests by Law Enforcement]{.underline}

    1. As a matter of general practice, Company does not voluntarily provide government agencies or authorities (including law enforcement) with access to Customer Personal Data. If a government agency or authority (including law enforcement) sends Company a compulsory demand for Customer Personal Data (for example, through a subpoena, court order, search warrant, or other valid legal process), Company will: (i) inform the government agency that Company is a processor or service provider (as applicable of the Customer Personal Data) and (ii) attempt to redirect the law enforcement agency to request that Customer Personal Data directly from Customer. As part of this effort, Company may provide Customer's basic contact information to the law enforcement agency. If compelled to disclose Customer Personal Data to a law enforcement agency, Company will give Customer reasonable notice of the demand to allow Customer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy unless Company is legally prohibited from doing so or it has a reasonable and good-faith belief that urgent access is necessary to prevent an imminent risk of serious harm to any individual, public safety, or Company's property, product, or services. Company shall not provide access to the Customer Personal Data until the earlier of: (a) Customer provides authorization to Company; (b) Company is informed or affirmatively learns that a protective order or other appropriate remedy is being sought or has been issued; or (c) thirty (30) days have elapsed since notice of the compulsory request to Customer and Customer has not responded.
  3. [Restrictions]{.underline}

Company hereby certifies that it understands the restrictions set out in Section 13.1 and will comply with them.

  1. [General Provisions]{.underline}

Clause 8

Data protection safeguards

The data exporter warrants that it has used reasonable efforts to determine that the data importer is able, through the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures, to satisfy its obligations under these Clauses.

8.1 Instructions

(a) The data importer shall process the personal data only on documented instructions from the data exporter. The data exporter may give such instructions throughout the duration of the contract.

(b) The data importer shall immediately inform the data exporter if it is unable to follow those instructions.

8.2 Purpose limitation

The data importer shall process the personal data only for the specific purpose(s) of the transfer, as set out in Annex I. B, unless on further instructions from the data exporter.

8.3 Transparency

This Clause is without prejudice to the obligations of the data exporter under Articles 13 and 14 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

8.4 Accuracy

If the data importer becomes aware that the personal data it has received is inaccurate, or has become outdated, it shall inform the data exporter without undue delay. In this case, the data importer shall cooperate with the data exporter to erase or rectify the data.

8.5 Duration of processing and erasure or return of data

Processing by the data importer shall only take place for the duration specified in Annex I. B. After the end of the provision of the processing services, the data importer shall, at the choice of the data exporter, delete all personal data processed on behalf of the data exporter and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, or return to the data exporter all personal data processed on its behalf and delete existing copies. Until the data is deleted or returned, the data importer shall continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses. In case of local laws applicable to the data importer that prohibit return or deletion of the personal data, the data importer warrants that it will continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses and will only process it to the extent and for as long as required under that local law. This is without prejudice to Clause 14, in particular the requirement for the data importer under Clause 14(e) to notify the data exporter throughout the duration of the contract if it has reason to believe that it is or has become subject to laws or practices not in line with the requirements under Clause 14(a).

The Parties shall in particular consider having recourse to encryption or pseudonymisation, including during transmission, where the purpose of processing can be fulfilled in that manner. In case of pseudonymisation, the additional information for attributing the personal data to a specific data subject shall, where possible, remain under the exclusive control of the data exporter. In complying with its obligations under this paragraph, the data importer shall at least implement the technical and organisational measures specified in Annex II. The data importer shall carry out regular checks to ensure that these measures continue to provide an appropriate level of security.

(b) The data importer shall grant access to the personal data to members of its personnel only to the extent strictly necessary for the implementation, management and monitoring of the contract. It shall ensure that persons authorised to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

(c) In the event of a personal data breach concerning personal data processed by the data importer under these Clauses, the data importer shall take appropriate measures to address the breach, including measures to mitigate its adverse effects.

Such notification shall contain the details of a contact point where more information can be obtained, a description of the nature of the breach (including, where possible, categories and approximate number of data subjects and personal data records concerned), its likely consequences and the measures taken or proposed to address the breach including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects. Where, and in so far as, it is not possible to provide all information at the same time, the initial notification shall contain the information then available and further information shall, as it becomes available, subsequently be provided without undue delay.

(d) The data importer shall cooperate with and assist the data exporter to enable the data exporter to comply with its obligations under Regulation (EU) 2016/679, in particular to notify the competent supervisory authority and the affected data subjects, taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to the data importer.

B.

8.8 Onward transfers

The data importer shall only disclose the personal data to a third party on documented instructions from the data exporter. In addition, the data may only be disclosed to a third party located outside the European Union (in the same country as the data importer or in another third country, hereinafter "onward transfer") if the third party is or agrees to be bound by these Clauses, or if:

(i) the onward transfer is to a country benefitting from an adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 that covers the onward transfer;

The data importer shall provide the data exporter with the information necessary to enable the data exporter to exercise its right to object.

(b) Where the data importer engages a sub-processor to carry out specific processing activities (on behalf of the data exporter), it shall do so by way of a written contract that provides for, in substance, the same data protection obligations as those binding the data importer under these Clauses, including in terms of third-party beneficiary rights for data subjects.

[SECTION III -- LOCAL LAWS AND OBLIGATIONS IN CASE
OF ACCESS BY PUBLIC AUTHORITIES]{.underline}

Clause 14

Local laws and practices affecting compliance with the Clauses

(a) The Parties warrant that they have no reason to believe that the laws and practices in the third country of destination applicable to the processing of the personal data by the data importer, including any requirements to disclose personal data or measures authorising access by public authorities, prevent the data importer from fulfilling its obligations under these Clauses. This is based on the understanding that laws and practices that respect the essence of the fundamental rights and freedoms and do not exceed what is necessary and proportionate in a democratic society to safeguard one of the objectives listed in Article 23(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, are not in contradiction with these Clauses.

(b) The Parties declare that in providing the warranty in paragraph (a), they have taken due account in particular of the following elements:

i.  the specific circumstances of the transfer, including the length
    of the processing chain, the number of actors involved and the
    transmission channels used; intended onward transfers; the type
    of recipient; the purpose of processing; the categories and
    format of the transferred personal data; the economic sector in
    which the transfer occurs; the storage location of the data
    transferred;

ii. the laws and practices of the third country of destination--
    including those requiring the disclosure of data to public
    authorities or authorising access by such authorities --
    relevant in light of the specific circumstances of the transfer,
    and the applicable limitations and safeguards;

iii. any relevant contractual, technical or organisational
     safeguards put in place to supplement the safeguards under
     these Clauses, including measures applied during transmission
     and to the processing of the personal data in the country of
     destination.

(c) The data importer warrants that, in carrying out the assessment under paragraph (b), it has made its best efforts to provide the data exporter with relevant information and agrees that it will continue to cooperate with the data exporter in ensuring compliance with these Clauses.

(d) The Parties agree to document the assessment under paragraph (b) and make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

(e) The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter promptly if, after having agreed to these Clauses and for the duration of the contract, it has reason to believe that it is or has become subject to laws or practices not in line with the requirements under paragraph (a), including following a change in the laws of the third country or a measure (such as a disclosure request) indicating an application of such laws in practice that is not in line with the requirements in paragraph (a).

(f) Following a notification pursuant to paragraph (e), or if the data exporter otherwise has reason to believe that the data importer can no longer fulfil its obligations under these Clauses, the data exporter shall promptly identify appropriate measures (e.g. technical or organisational measures to ensure security and confidentiality) to be adopted by the data exporter and/or data importer to address the situation. The data exporter shall suspend the data transfer if it considers that no appropriate safeguards for such transfer can be ensured, or if instructed the competent supervisory authority to do so. In this case, the data exporter shall be entitled to terminate the contract, insofar as it concerns the processing of personal data under these Clauses. If the contract involves more than two Parties, the data exporter may exercise this right to termination only with respect to the relevant Party, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise. Where the contract is terminated pursuant to this Clause, Clause 16(d) and (e) shall apply.

Clause 15

Obligations of the data importer in case of access by public authorities

15.1 Notification

(a) The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter and, where possible, the data subject promptly (if necessary with the help of the data exporter) if it:

i.  receives a legally binding request from a public authority,
    including judicial authorities, under the laws of the country of
    destination for the disclosure of transferred pursuant to these
    Clauses; such notification shall include information about the
    personal data requested, the requesting authority, the legal
    basis for the request and the response provided; or

ii. becomes aware of any direct access by public authorities to
    transferred pursuant to these Clauses in accordance with the
    laws of the country of destination; such notification shall
    include all information available to the importer.

(b) If the data importer is prohibited from notifying the data exporter and/or the data subject under the laws of the country of destination, the data importer agrees to use its best efforts to obtain a waiver of the prohibition, with a view to communicating as much information as possible, as soon as possible. The data importer agrees to document its best efforts in order to be able to demonstrate them on request of the data exporter.

(c) Where permissible under the laws of the country of destination, the data importer agrees to provide the data exporter, at regular intervals for the duration of the contract, with as much relevant information as possible on the requests received (in particular, number of requests, type of data requested, requesting authority/ies, whether requests have been challenged and the outcome of such challenges, etc.).

(d) The data importer agrees to preserve the information pursuant to paragraphs (a) to (c) for the duration of the contract and make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

(e) Paragraphs (a) to (c) are without prejudice to the obligation of the data importer pursuant to Clause 14(e) and Clause 16 to inform the data exporter promptly where it is unable to comply with these Clauses.

15.2 Review of legality and data minimisation

(a) The data importer agrees to review the legality of the request for disclosure, in particular whether it remains within the powers granted to the requesting public authority, and to challenge the request if, after careful assessment, it concludes that there are reasonable grounds to consider that the request is unlawful under the laws of the country of destination, applicable obligations under international law and principles of international comity. The data importer shall, under the same conditions, pursue possibilities of appeal. When challenging a request, the data importer shall seek interim measures with a view to suspending the effects of the request until the competent judicial authority has decided on its merits. It shall not disclose the personal data requested until required to do so under the applicable procedural rules. These requirements are without prejudice to the obligations of the data importer under Clause 14(e).

(b) The data importer agrees to document its legal assessment and any challenge to the request for disclosure and, to the extent permissible under the laws of the country of destination, make the documentation available to the data exporter. It shall also make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

(c) The data importer agrees to provide the minimum amount of information permissible when responding to a request for disclosure, based on a reasonable interpretation of the request.

[SECTION IV -- FINAL PROVISIONS]{.underline}

Clause 16

Non-compliance with the Clauses and termination

(a) The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter if it is unable to comply with these Clauses, for whatever reason.

(b) In the event that the data importer is in breach of these Clauses or unable to comply with these Clauses, the data exporter shall suspend the transfer of personal data to the data importer until compliance is again ensured or the contract is terminated. This is without prejudice to Clause 14(f).

(c) The data exporter shall be entitled to terminate the contract, insofar as it concerns the processing of personal data under these Clauses, where:

i.  the data exporter has suspended the transfer of personal data to
    the data importer pursuant to paragraph (b) and compliance with
    these Clauses is not restored within a reasonable time and in
    any event within one month of suspension;

ii. the data importer is in substantial or persistent breach of
    these Clauses; or

iii. the data importer fails to comply with a binding decision of a
     competent court or supervisory authority regarding its
     obligations under these Clauses.

In these cases, it shall inform the competent supervisory authority of such non-compliance. Where the contract involves more than two Parties, the data exporter may exercise this right to termination only with respect to the relevant Party, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise.

(d) personal data that has been transferred prior to the termination of the contract pursuant to paragraph (c) shall at the choice of the data exporter immediately be returned to the data exporter or deleted in its entirety. The same shall apply to any copies of the data. The data importer shall certify the deletion of the data to the data exporter. Until the data is deleted or returned, the data importer shall continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses. In case of local laws applicable to the data importer that prohibit the return or deletion of the transferred personal data, the data importer warrants that it will continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses and will only process the data to the extent and for as long as required under that local law.

(e) Either Party may revoke its agreement to be bound by these Clauses where (i) the European Commission adopts a decision pursuant to Article 45(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 that covers the transfer of personal data to which these Clauses apply; or (ii) Regulation (EU) 2016/679 becomes part of the legal framework of the country to which the personal data is transferred. This is without prejudice to other obligations applying to the processing in question under Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

Clause 17

Governing law

These Clauses shall be governed by the law of one of the EU Member States, provided such law allows for third-party beneficiary rights. The Parties agree that this shall be the law of Republic of Ireland

Clause 18

Choice of forum and jurisdiction

(a) Any dispute arising from these Clauses shall be resolved by the courts of an EU Member State.

(b) The Parties agree that those shall be the courts of Republic of Ireland.

(c) A data subject may also bring legal proceedings against the data exporter and/or data importer before the courts of the Member State in which he/she has his/her habitual residence.

ANNEX II TO THE STANDARD CONTRACTUAL CLAUSES

[TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES INCLUDING TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES TO ENSURE THE SECURITY OF THE DATA]{.underline}

Description of the technical and rganizational measures implemented by the data importer(s) (including any relevant certifications) to ensure an appropriate level of security, taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, and the risks for the rights and freedoms of natural persons:

c) Preventing Unauthorized Product Access

Outsourced processing: We host our Service with outsourced cloud infrastructure providers. Additionally, we maintain contractual relationships with vendors in order to provide the Service in accordance with our DPA. We rely on contractual agreements, privacy policies, and vendor compliance programs in order to protect data processed or stored by these vendors.

Physical and environmental security: We host our product infrastructure with multi-tenant, outsourced infrastructure providers. The physical and environmental security controls are audited for SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 compliance, among other certifications.

Authentication: We implement a uniform password policy for our customer products. Customers who interact with the products via the user interface must authenticate before accessing non-public customer data.

Authorization: Customer Data is stored in multi-tenant storage systems accessible to Customers via only application user interfaces. Customers are not allowed direct access to the underlying application infrastructure. The authorization model in each of our products is designed to ensure that only the appropriately assigned individuals can access relevant features, views, and customization options. Authorization to data sets is performed through validating the user's permissions against the attributes associated with each data set.

ii) Preventing Unauthorized Product Use

We implement industry standard access controls and detection capabilities for the internal networks that support its products.

Access controls: Network access control mechanisms are designed to prevent network traffic using unauthorized protocols from reaching the product infrastructure. The technical measures implemented differ between infrastructure providers and include Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) implementations, security group assignment, and traditional firewall rules.

Intrusion detection and prevention: We implement a Web Application Firewall (WAF) solution to protect hosted customer websites and other internet-accessible applications. The WAF is designed to identify and prevent attacks against publicly available network services.

Static code analysis: Security reviews of code stored in our source code repositories is performed, checking for coding best practices and identifiable software flaws.

Penetration testing: We maintain relationships with penetration testing service providers for atleast one annual penetration tests. The intent of the penetration tests is to identify and resolve foreseeable attack vectors and potential abuse scenarios.

iii) Limitations of Privilege & Authorization Requirements

Product access: A subset of our employees have access to the products and to customer data via controlled interfaces. The intent of providing access to a subset of employees is to provide effective customer support, to troubleshoot potential problems, to detect and respond to security incidents and implement data security. Access is enabled through "just in time" requests for access; all such requests are logged. Employees are granted access by role, and reviews of high risk privilege grants are initiated daily. Employee roles are reviewed at least once every six months.

Background checks: All UserFocus employees and contractors undergo a background or refrence check prior to being extended an employment offer, in accordance with and as permitted by the applicable laws. All UserFocus employees and contractors are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with company guidelines, non-disclosure requirements, and ethical standards.

b) Transmission Control

In-transit: We make HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS) available on every one of its login interfaces. Our HTTPS implementation uses industry standard algorithms and certificates.

At-rest: We store user passwords following policies that follow industry standard practices for security. We have implemented technologies to ensure that stored data is encrypted at rest.

c) Input Control

Detection: We designed our infrastructure to log extensive information about the system behavior, traffic received, system authentication, and other application requests. Internal systems aggregated log data and alert appropriate employees of malicious, unintended, or anomalous activities. Our personnel, including security, operations, and support personnel, are responsive to known incidents.

Response and tracking: We maintain a record of known security incidents that includes description, dates and times of relevant activities, and incident disposition. Suspected and confirmed security incidents are investigated by security, operations, or support personnel; and appropriate resolution steps are identified and documented. For any confirmed incidents, we will take appropriate steps to minimize product and Customer damage or unauthorized disclosure. Notification to you will be in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

d) Availability Control

Infrastructure availability: The infrastructure providers use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure a minimum of 99.95% uptime. The providers maintain a minimum of N+1 redundancy to power, network, and HVAC services.

Fault tolerance: Backup and replication strategies are designed to ensure redundancy and fail-over protections during a significant processing failure. Customer data is backed up to durable data stores.

Online replicas and backups: Where feasible, production databases are designed to replicate data between no less than 1 primary and 1 secondary database. All databases are backed up and maintained using at least industry standard methods.

Our products are designed to ensure redundancy and seamless failover. The server instances that support the products are also architected with a goal to prevent single points of failure. This design assists our operations in maintaining and updating the product applications and backend while limiting downtime.
