measures that are designed to protect against Data Breaches, and unauthorized or accidental
destruction, loss, alteration or damage, unauthorized disclosure of or access to, Personal Data
and designed to preserve the security and confidentiality of Personal Data, taking into account
the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes

meet its obligations under applicable Data Protection Laws. Customer is also responsible for
its secure use of the Services, including protecting the security of Personal Data in transit
to and from the Services (including securely backing up or encrypting any such Personal Data).
5. Security Breach.

faith efforts to notify Customer of the Security Breach without undue delay, but in no event
later than five (5) business days after Vendor becomes reasonably aware of the Security Breach.
The notification obligations in this Section 5 do not apply to incidents that are caused by
Customer or Customer's personnel or users, or unsuccessful attempts or activities that do not
compromise the security of Personal Data, including unsuccessful log-in attempts, pings, port
scans, denial of service attacks, and other network attacks on firewall or networked systems.

or the Agreement, the provisions of this Annex B shall control.

Processing of Personal Data.
-
Roles of the Parties.
When Processing Personal Data that is subject to EU Data Protection Law in accordance
with Customer's instructions, the Parties acknowledge that Customer is the Controller
of the Personal Data and Vendor is the Processor.
-
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 EU Data Protection Laws.

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
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

Subprocessors that are equivalent to those data protection obligations imposed
on Vendor under the DPA and this Annex B.

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

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 fulfilment of
Customer's obligation to respond to a Data Subject Request.

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

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.
-
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

-
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. Customer agrees to reimburse Vendor, at Vendor's
then-current hourly rates (which rates Vendor will provide to Customer in writing upon
Customer's written request), for time expended by Vendor personnel in contributing to an
audit (except an audit required by a Supervisory Authority).
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.

Information Commissioner's Office (as applicable), the Parties agree to supplement the
provisions of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and/or the U.K. Standard Contractual
Clauses with the following safeguards and representations, where appropriate:
- Vendor shall implement and maintain in accordance with good industry practice
measures, including the use of industry standard encryption, to protect the
Personal Data from interception (including in transit from the Customer to Vendor
and between different systems and services). This includes having in place and
maintaining network protection and industry standard encryption intended to deny
attackers the ability to intercept data and encryption of Personal Data whilst
in transit and at rest intended to deny attackers the ability to read data.
- Vendor will make commercially reasonable efforts to resist, subject to
applicable Data Protection Laws and other applicable laws, any request for bulk
surveillance relating to the Personal Data protected under the GDPR or the U.K.
GDPR, including under Section 702 of the United States Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act ("FISA");
- If Vendor becomes aware that any government authority (including law
enforcement) wishes to obtain access to or a copy of some or all of the
Personal Data, whether on a voluntary or a mandatory basis, then unless legally
prohibited or under a mandatory legal compulsion that requires otherwise:
- 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.
- Vendor will use commercially reasonable legal mechanisms to challenge
any such demand for access to Personal Data which is under Vendor's
control. Notwithstanding the above, (a) Customer acknowledges that such
challenge may not always be reasonable or possible in light of the
nature, scope, context and purposes of the intended governmental
authority access; and (b) if, taking into account the nature, scope,
context and purposes of the intended governmental authority access to
Personal Data, Vendor has a reasonable and good-faith belief that urgent
access is necessary to prevent an imminent risk of serious harm to any
individual or entity, this Section 6.4.3.2 shall not apply. In such
event, Vendor shall notify Customer, as soon as practicable, following
the access by the governmental authority, and provide Customer with
relevant details of the same, unless and to the extent Vendor is
legally prohibited from doing so.

inform Customer, at Customer's written request, of the types of binding legal
demands for Personal Data it has received and solely to the extent such demands
have been received, including national security orders and directives, which
shall encompass any process issued under Section 702 of FISA.
- If Vendor is prohibited by law from disclosing to Customer the existence of a
request for information by a law enforcement entity under Section 702 of FISA
or other similar legal process, Vendor shall take all reasonable steps to
attempt to have the prohibition on disclosure removed and shall promptly notify
Customer of the request as soon as legally permitted.
