  • anticipated consequences, and
  • any actual or proposed measures to be taken by Us (or on Our behalf) in order to mitigate the potential negative effects of such breach.

(a) implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures;

(b) notify (if required) Personal Data breaches to regulators and/or individuals; and

(c) conduct data protection impact assessments (including assessment of the adequacy of the Clauses) and, if required, prior consultation with regulators.

If We receive any request directly from an End User relating to Data Subject rights, We will not respond to such communication directly except as appropriate (for example, to direct the Data Subject to contact you) or legally required, without the Subscriber's prior authorization. If We are required to respond to such a request, We will promptly notify you and provide you with a copy of the request unless We are legally prohibited from doing so. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in any of the Umso Policies or this DPA will restrict or prevent Us from responding to any Data Subject or data protection authority requests in relation to Personal Data for which We are a Controller.

10. Applicable Transfer Mechanism

The Processing of the End User Subscriber Data will take place within the territory of the EU, Canada, or a third country, territory, or one or more specified sectors within that third country or territory which the European Commission has determined ensures an adequate level of protection. Any transfer to and Processing in a third country or territory outside the EU that does not ensure an adequate level of protection for Personal Data (as described in applicable Data Protection Regulations), will be undertaken in accordance with the Clauses (depending on the nature of the data exporter and data importer as Controller or Processor).

11. Term

This DPA will be in effect in relation to each Subscriber, for as long as such Subscriber, uses any of Our Services; provided, however, that in the event We are obligated, according to the terms of this DPA or any Umso Policies, to keep Personal Data of an End User following the termination of the Services, this DPA will continue to be in effect for as long as Umso holds such Personal Data.

12. Effect of Termination

Upon termination of the use by the Subscriber of the Services, We will, at the election of the Subscriber, delete or return to the Subscriber all End User Subscriber Data in Our possession or control, except that this requirement will not apply to the extent Umso is required by applicable law to retain some or all of the End User Subscriber Data, or to End User Subscriber Data We have archived on back-up systems, which End User Subscriber Data Umso will securely isolate, protect from any further processing, and eventually delete in accordance with Our deletion policies, except to the extent required by applicable law.

13. Amendments

Umso will have the right to amend and/or adjust any of the terms of this DPA as may be required from time-to-time, in order to comply with any applicable laws or regulations.

14. Notice to Umso

Umso will attempt to resolve any complaints regarding the use of End User Subscriber Data in accordance with this DPA and Umso Policies.

15. Limitation of Liability

UMSO’S LIABILITY TAKEN TOGETHER IN THE AGGREGATE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS DPA (INCLUDING THE CLAUSES) WILL BE SUBJECT TO THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN OUR TERMS OF SERVICE.

ANY CLAIMS MADE AGAINST US UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS DPA (INCLUDING, WHERE APPLICABLE, THE CLAUSES) WILL BE BROUGHT SOLELY BY THE SUBSCRIBER ENTITY THAT IS A PARTY TO THE RELATED TERMS OF SERVICE.

IN NO EVENT WILL UMSO LIMIT ITS LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY INDIVIDUAL'S DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS UNDER THIS DPA OR OTHERWISE.

16. General Matters

No one other than a party to this DPA, its successors and permitted assignees shall have any right to enforce any of its terms. This DPA will be governed by and construed in accordance with the governing law and jurisdiction provisions in Our Terms of Service, unless required otherwise by Applicable Data Protection Regulations.

For the avoidance of doubt, when EU law ceases to apply to the United Kingdom (“UK”) following the UK's withdrawal from the EU and until such time as the UK is deemed to provide adequate protection for personal data (within the meaning of applicable EU Data Protection Law) then to the extent Umso processes (or causes to be processed) any End User Subscriber Data protected by EU Data Protection Law applicable to the United Kingdom, Umso will process such End User Subscriber Data in compliance with the Clauses.

Annex 1 - Standard Contractual Clauses

 

For the purposes of Article 26(2) of Directive 95/46/EC for the transfer of personal data to processors established in third countries which do not ensure an adequate level of data protection, the entity identified as “Subscriber” in this DPA (the “data exporter”) and Umso Software Inc., #900-2025 Willingdon Avenue, Burnaby, B.C., Canada V5C 0J3 (the “data importer”), HAVE AGREED on the following Contractual Clauses (the “Clauses”) in order to adduce adequate safeguards with respect to the protection of privacy and fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals for the transfer by the data exporter to the data importer of the personal data specified in Appendix 1 attached hereto.

The data exporter and data importer are each a “party” and together, the “parties” for the purposes set forth below in the Clauses.

Clause 1 – Definitions in this Annex 1

“personal data”, “special categories of data”, “process/processing”, “controller”, “processor”, “data subject” and “supervisory authority” will have the same meaning as in Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data;

“the data exporter” means the controller who transfers the personal data;

“the data importer” means the processor who agrees to receive from the data exporter personal data intended for processing on his behalf after the transfer in accordance with his instructions and the terms of the Clauses and who is not subject to a third country's system ensuring adequate protection within the meaning of Article 25(1) of Directive 95/46/EC;

“the subprocessor” means any processor engaged by the data importer or by any other subprocessor of the data importer who agrees to receive from the data importer or from any other subprocessor of the data importer personal data exclusively intended for processing activities to be carried out on behalf of the data exporter after the transfer in accordance with his instructions, the terms of the Clauses and the terms of the written subcontract;

“the applicable data protection law” means the legislation protecting the fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals and, in particular, their right to privacy with respect to the processing of personal data applicable to a data controller in the Member State in which the data exporter is established;
“technical and organisational security measures” means those measures aimed at protecting personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access, in particular where the processing involves the transmission of data over a network, and against all other unlawful forms of processing.

Clause 2 - Details of the transfer

The details of the transfer and in particular the special categories of personal data where applicable are specified in Appendix 1 below which forms an integral part of the Clauses.

Clause 3 - Third-party beneficiary clause

3.1 The data subject can enforce against the data exporter this Clause, Clause 4(b) to (i), Clause 5(a) to (e), and (g) to (j), Clause 6(1) and (2), Clause 7, Clause 8(2), and Clauses 9 to 12 as third-party beneficiary.

3.2 The data subject can enforce against the data importer this Clause, Clause 5(a) to (e) and (g), Clause 6, Clause 7, Clause 8(2), and Clauses 9 to 12, in cases where the data exporter has factually disappeared or has ceased to exist in law unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract or by operation of law, as a result of which it takes on the rights and obligations of the data exporter, in which case the data subject can enforce them against such entity.

3.3 The data subject can enforce against the subprocessor this Clause, Clause 5(a) to (e) and (g), Clause 6, Clause 7, Clause 8(2), and Clauses 9 to 12, in cases where both the data exporter and the data importer have factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract or by operation of law as a result of which it takes on the rights and obligations of the data exporter, in which case the data subject can enforce them against such entity. Such third-party liability of the subprocessor will be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

3.4 The parties do not object to a data subject being represented by an association or other body if the data subject so expressly wishes and if permitted by national law.

Clause 4 - Obligations of the data exporter

4.1 The data exporter agrees and warrants:

(a) that the processing, including the transfer itself, of the personal data has been and will continue to be carried out in accordance with the relevant provisions of the applicable data protection law (and, where applicable, has been notified to the relevant authorities of the Member State where the data exporter is established) and does not violate the relevant provisions of that State;

(b) that it has instructed and throughout the duration of the personal data processing services will instruct the data importer to process the personal data transferred only on the data exporter's behalf and in accordance with the applicable data protection law and the Clauses;

(c) that the data importer will provide sufficient guarantees in respect of the technical and organisational security measures specified in Appendix 2 to this contract;

(d) that after assessment of the requirements of the applicable data protection law, the security measures are appropriate to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access, in particular where the processing involves the transmission of data over a network, and against all other unlawful forms of processing, and that these measures ensure a level of security appropriate to the risks presented by the processing and the nature of the data to be protected having regard to the state of the art and the cost of their implementation;

(e) that it will ensure compliance with the security measures;

(f) that, if the transfer involves special categories of data, the data subject has been informed or will be informed before, or as soon as possible after, the transfer that its data could be transmitted to a third country not providing adequate protection within the meaning of Directive 95/46/EC;
(g) to forward any notification received from the data importer or any subprocessor pursuant to Clause 5(b) and Clause 8(3) to the data protection supervisory authority if the data exporter decides to continue the transfer or to lift the suspension;

(h) to make available to the data subjects upon request a copy of the Clauses, with the exception of Appendix 2, and a summary description of the security measures, as well as a copy of any contract for subprocessing services which has to be made in accordance with the Clauses, unless the Clauses or the contract contain commercial information, in which case it may remove such commercial information;

(i) that, in the event of subprocessing, the processing activity is carried out in accordance with Clause 11 by a subprocessor providing at least the same level of protection for the personal data and the rights of data subject as the data importer under the Clauses; and

(j) that it will ensure compliance with Clause 4(a) to (i).

Clause 5- Obligations of the data importer

5.1 The data importer agrees and warrants:

(a) to process the personal data only on behalf of the data exporter and in compliance with its instructions and the Clauses; if it cannot provide such compliance for whatever reasons, it agrees to inform promptly the data exporter of its inability to comply, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract;

(b) that it has no reason to believe that the legislation applicable to it prevents it from fulfilling the instructions received from the data exporter and its obligations under the contract and that in the event of a change in this legislation which is likely to have a substantial adverse effect on the warranties and obligations provided by the Clauses, it will promptly notify the change to the data exporter as soon as it is aware, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract;

(c) that it has implemented the technical and organisational security measures specified in Appendix 2 before processing the personal data transferred;

(d) that it will promptly notify the data exporter about:
(i) any legally binding request for disclosure of the personal data by a law enforcement authority unless otherwise prohibited, such as a prohibition under criminal law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation,

(ii) any accidental or unauthorised access, and

(iii) any request received directly from the data subjects without responding to that request, unless it has been otherwise authorised to do so;

(e) to deal promptly and properly with all inquiries from the data exporter relating to its processing of the personal data subject to the transfer and to abide by the advice of the supervisory authority with regard to the processing of the data transferred;

(f) at the request of the data exporter to submit its data processing facilities for audit of the processing activities covered by the Clauses which shall be carried out by the data exporter or an inspection body composed of independent members and in possession of the required professional qualifications bound by a duty of confidentiality, selected by the data exporter, where applicable, in agreement with the supervisory authority;

Mandatory requirements of the national legislation applicable to the data importer which do not go beyond what is necessary in a democratic society on the basis of one of the interests listed in Article 13(1) of Directive 95/46/EC, that is, if they constitute a necessary measure to safeguard national security, defence, public security, the prevention, investigation, detection, and prosecution of criminal offences or of breaches of ethics for the regulated professions, an important economic or financial interest of the State or the protection of the data subject or the rights and freedoms of others, are not in contradiction with the standard contractual clauses. Some examples of such mandatory requirements which do not go beyond what is necessary in a democratic society are, inter alia, internationally recognised sanctions, tax-reporting requirements or anti-money-laundering reporting requirements.

(g) to make available to the data subject upon request a copy of the Clauses, or any existing contract for subprocessing, unless the Clauses or contract contain commercial information, in which case it may remove such commercial information, with the exception of Appendix 2 which shall be replaced by a summary description of the security measures in those cases where the data subject is unable to obtain a copy from the data exporter;

(h) that, in the event of subprocessing, it has previously informed the data exporter and obtained its prior written consent;

(i) that the processing services by the subprocessor will be carried out in accordance with Clause 11;

(j) to send promptly a copy of any subprocessor agreement it concludes under the Clauses to the data exporter.

Clause 6 - Liability

6.1 The parties agree that any data subject, who has suffered damage as a result of any breach of the obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 by any party or subprocessor is entitled to receive
compensation from the data exporter for the damage suffered.

6.2 If a data subject is not able to bring a claim for compensation in accordance with paragraph 6.1 against the data exporter, arising out of a breach by the data importer or his subprocessor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11, because the data exporter has factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or has become insolvent, the data importer agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data importer as if it were the data exporter, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract of by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity. The data importer may not rely on a breach by a subprocessor of its obligations in order to avoid its own liabilities.

6.3 If a data subject is not able to bring a claim against the data exporter or the data importer referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2, arising out of a breach by the subprocessor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 because both the data exporter and the data importer have factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent, the subprocessor agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data subprocessor with regard to its own processing operations under the Clauses as if it were the data exporter or the data importer, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity. The liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

Clause 7 – Mediation and Jurisdiction

7.1 The data importer agrees that if the data subject invokes against it third-party beneficiary rights and/or claims compensation for damages under the Clauses, the data importer will accept the decision of the data subject:

(a) to refer the dispute to mediation, by an independent person or, where applicable, by the supervisory authority;

(b)  to refer the dispute to the courts in the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

7.2 The parties agree that the choice made by the data subject will not prejudice its substantive or procedural rights to seek remedies in accordance with other provisions of national or international law.

Clause 8 - Cooperation with supervisory authorities

8.1 The data exporter agrees to deposit a copy of this contract with the supervisory authority if it so requests or if such deposit is required under the applicable data protection law.

8.2 The parties agree that the supervisory authority has the right to conduct an audit of the data importer, and of any subprocessor, which has the same scope and is subject to the same conditions as would apply to an audit of the data exporter under the applicable data protection law.

8.3 The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter about the existence of legislation applicable to it or any subprocessor preventing the conduct of an audit of the data importer, or any subprocessor, pursuant to paragraph 2. In such a case the data exporter shall be entitled to take the measures foreseen in Clause 5 (b).

Clause 9 – Choice of Law

The Clauses shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

Clause 10 – Variation of the Contract

The parties undertake not to vary or modify the Clauses. This does not preclude the parties from adding clauses on business related issues where required as long as they do not contradict the Clauses.

Clause 11 – Subprocessing

11.1 The data importer shall not subcontract any of its processing operations performed on behalf of the data exporter under the Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the subprocessor which imposes the same obligations on the subprocessor as are imposed on the data importer under Clause 3. Where the subprocessor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the subprocessor's obligations under such agreement.

11.2 The prior written contract between the data importer and the subprocessor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in paragraph 6.1 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

11.3 The provisions relating to data protection aspects for subprocessing of the contract referred to in paragraph 11.1 shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

11.4 The data exporter shall keep a list of subprocessing agreements concluded under the Clauses and notified by the data importer pursuant to Clause 5 (j), which shall be updated at least once a year. The list shall be available to the data exporter's data protection supervisory authority.

Clause 12 – Obligations after termination of personal data processing services

12.1 The parties agree that on the termination of the provision of data processing services, the data importer and the subprocessor shall, at the choice of the data exporter, return all the personal data transferred and the copies thereof to the data exporter or shall destroy all the personal data and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, unless legislation imposed upon the data importer prevents it from returning or destroying all or part of the personal data transferred. In that case, the data importer warrants that it will guarantee the confidentiality of the personal data transferred and will not actively process the personal data transferred anymore.
12.2 The data importer and the subprocessor warrant that upon request of the data exporter and/or of the supervisory authority, it will submit its data processing facilities for an audit of the measures referred to in paragraph 12.1.
