SECTION B: DATA PROCESSOR TERMS

This Section of our Privacy Policy only applies to personal data that we process on your behalf as your Data Processor once you subscribe to the Service.  It sets out the minimum standards that we must comply with at law when processing personal data on your behalf.

Processing of Subscriber Personal Data

Where processing of personal data relating to others controlled by you (“Subscriber Personal Data”) is to be carried out on your behalf pursuant to the terms and functionality applicable to your Service subscription, appropriate technical and organisational measures shall be implemented by us in such a manner that processing will meet the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR”), as may be amended or superseded and other applicable data protection laws and regulations in the UK and EU (together, “Data Protection Laws”) and ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.

Restriction on subprocessing

We shall not engage a subprocessor to process Subscriber Personal Data (“Subprocessor”) without your prior specific or general written authorisation, which may be given in electronic form. In the case of general written authorisation, we shall inform you of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of other processors, thereby giving you the opportunity to object to such changes. Details of this process are set out below.

Compulsory processor terms pursuant to Article 28(3) GDPR

Details of the subject-matter and duration of the processing, the nature and purpose of the processing, the type of personal data and categories of data subjects are set out below.

In respect of any processing of Subscriber Personal Data we shall:

  • process Subscriber Personal Data only on your documented instructions (including electronic instructions), including with regard to transfers of personal data to a third country or an international organisation, unless required to do so by applicable law to which we are subject; in such a case, we shall inform you of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest;
  • ensure that persons authorised to process Subscriber Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;
  • take all measures required pursuant to Article 32 GDPR (Security of processing), to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, 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;
  • respect the conditions referred to herein for engaging a Subprocessor;
  • taking into account the nature of the processing, assist you by appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of your obligation to respond to requests for exercising the data subject’s rights laid down in Chapter III GDPR. This shall include promptly notifying you if we receive a request to exercise any data subject rights under Data Protection Laws within 14 days of receiving such request and thereafter assisting you as reasonably necessary to comply with such request promptly. We shall not respond to such requests directly to any data subject except on your documented instructions or as required by applicable laws to which we are subject;
  • assist you in ensuring compliance with the obligations pursuant to Articles 32 to 36 GDPR (Security of processing; Notification of a personal data breach to the supervisory authority; Communication of a personal data breach to the data subject; Data protection impact assessment; and Prior consultation) taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to us. This shall include notifying you without delay and, where feasible, within one working day, after having become aware of any Personal Data breach, being a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, Subscriber Personal Data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed hereunder;
  • at your choice, delete or return all Subscriber Personal Data after the end of the provision of services relating to processing, and delete existing copies unless Data Protection Laws require storage of the personal data;
  • make available to you all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations laid down in these terms and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by you or another auditor mandated by you.
  • inform you if, in its opinion, an instruction infringes Data Protection Laws.

Compulsory subprocessor contract terms (Article 28(4))

Where we engage a Subprocessor, such engagement shall contain the same, or equivalent, data protection obligations as are referred to above by way of a binding contract or other other legal act, in particular providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that the processing will meet the requirements of GDPR.

Where any Subprocessor engaged by us fails to fulfil its data protection obligations in respect of Subscriber Personal Data, we shall remain fully liable to you for the performance of that subprocessor’s obligations.

Documented instructions to process Subscriber Personal Data

  • Processing by us

You hereby instruct us to process Subscriber Personal Data as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Site and Services and in compliance with our Terms and Conditions.

  • Current Subprocessors

We may continue to use those Subprocessors already engaged by us as at the start of your subscription.

  • New Subcontractors

With respect to each new Subprocessor appointed after the date of your subscription, we shall:

  • before the Subprocessor first processes Subscriber Personal Data, carry out adequate due diligence to ensure that the Subprocessor is capable of providing the level of protection for Subscriber Personal Data required by Data Protection Laws;
  • ensure that the arrangement between us and the Subprocessor is governed by a contract that complies with this Privacy Policy;
  • if that arrangement involves a transfer of Subscriber Personal Data to a third country, a territory or one or more specified sectors within a third country or international organisation outside the EEA that does not benefit from a formal adequacy decision by the European Commission (pursuant to Article 45 GDPR), ensure that such transfer is subject to appropriate safeguards within the meaning of Article 46 GDPR, which may include the use of EU Model Contractual Clauses, Binding Corporate Rules or recognised legal frameworks or accreditations, such as the EU-US Privacy Shield;
  • provide to you for review on request details of all Subcontractors, including our contracts with them (which may be redacted to remove confidential commercial information not relevant to the requirements of these terms) as you may request from time to time.

Approval process

We shall publish on the Site the appointment of any new Subprocessors to be appointed, including full details of the processing to be undertaken by the Subprocessor. If, within 14 days of publication, you notify us in writing of any objections (on reasonable grounds) to the proposed appointment, we shall not disclose any Subscriber Personal Data to that proposed Subprocessor and/or (as applicable) you shall not access any element of our Site or Service affected by this issue until reasonable steps have been taken to address the objections raised by you. If no such objections are raised, you shall be deemed to have consented to the appointment of the Subprocessor.

Charges and Costs Mitigation

We shall be entitled to charge you for the reasonable and verified costs of our specific assistance and cooperation provided pursuant to this Privacy Policy except to the extent that such measures have been necessitated by a breach by us or our Subprocessors. Our charges shall be on a time and materials basis according to our prevailing rates and invoiced according to our standard payment terms.

In the event that we are able to demonstrate that we and/or any Subprocessor adheres to an approved code of conduct or approved certification mechanism as referred to in Article 40 GDPR, you accept that we may rely on the same to demonstrate its compliance with this Privacy Policy, so as to mitigate or avoid incurring unnecessary administration and costs, unless otherwise required by Data Protection Laws or as may be mutually agreed by the parties.
