2. Processing of Customer Personal Data

2.1. The parties acknowledge that Customer is the Controller and shall comply with the obligations of a Controller under the Data Protection Legislation and that Cymulate is acting in the capacity of a Processor. In some circumstances, Customer may additionally or alternatively be a Processor, in which case Customer appoints Cymulate as an authorised sub-processor, which shall not change the obligations of the parties under this Addendum as Cymulate will remain a Processor in any such event. Customer will comply with all obligations applicable to a Controller pursuant to the Data Protection Legislation.

2.2. Cymulate shall process Customer’s Personal Data on the documented instructions of Customer, unless otherwise required by an Applicable Law to which Cymulate is subject. In which case, Cymulate shall notify Customer if, in its opinion, any instruction infringes the Data Protection Legislation, unless that law prohibits such notification. Such notification will not constitute a general obligation on the part of Cymulate to monitor or interpret the laws applicable to Customer, and such notification will not constitute legal advice to Customer.

2.3. Customer warrants that it has all the necessary rights to give access to and to provide the Personal Data to Cymulate for the Processing to be performed in relation to the Services, and that one or more lawful bases set forth in Data Protection Legislation support the lawfulness of the Processing. To the extent required by Data Protection Legislation, Customer is responsible for ensuring that all necessary privacy notices are provided to Data Subjects, and unless another legal basis set forth in the Data Protection Legislation supports the lawfulness of the processing, that any necessary Data subject consents to the Processing are obtained, and for ensuring that a record of such consent is maintained. Should such consent be revoked by a Data Subject, Customer is responsible for communicating the fact of such revocation to Cymulate, and Cymulate will act pursuant to Customer’s instructions as seems appropriate.

2.4. In case Customer is subject to the CCPA, Cymulate certifies that it understands the rules, requirements and definitions of the CCPA and agrees to refrain from selling (as such term is defined in the CCPA) any Personal Data Processed hereunder, nor take any action that would cause any disclosure of Personal Data to or from Cymulate under the Agreement or this DPA to qualify as “selling” such Personal Data under the CCPA. Cymulate will reasonably cooperate and assist Customer with meeting Customer’s CCPA compliance obligations and responding to CCPA-related inquiries, including responding to verifiable consumer requests, taking into account the nature of Cymulate’s Processing and the information available to Cymulate.

2.5. Exhibit 1 to this Addendum sets out certain information according to which, Personal Data may be processed by Cymulate. Customer warrants it is an accurate reflection of the Processing activities pursuant to this Addendum and the Agreement. The nature of the Processing operations will depend on the scope of the Services and the nature of the Personal Data that Customer provides in its sole discretion, in a manner by which Cymulate finds appropriate to provide the required Services.

3. Confidentiality

Without prejudice to any existing contractual arrangements between the parties, Cymulate shall ensure that any person who it authorizes to Process the Personal Data on its behalf, shall be subject to a duty of confidentiality that shall survive the termination of their employment and/or contractual relationship.

4. Security

Taken into account the measures required the Data Protection Legislation, and the state of the art, the costs of implementation and nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural person, Cymulate shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security of the Processing of Personal Data appropriate to the risk. Such measures are detailed under Exhibit 2 and may be updated by Cymulate from time to time, provided that such updates shall not materially decrease the protection of Personal Data for Data Subjects.

5. Sub-processing

5.1. Customer authorizes Cymulate to appoint (and permit each Sub-processor to appoint) Sub-processors listed at https://cymulate.com/sub-processors/ , and in accordance with this Addendum and any restrictions in the Agreement.

5.2. Cymulate shall inform Customer as soon as reasonably practicable of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of any of the Authorised Sub-Processors that will Process any Customer Personal Data (“New Sub-Processor”) via its sub-processors’ list available on Cymulate’s website. If, within 14 calendar days of receipt of that notice, Customer notifies Cymulate in writing of any objections made on reasonable grounds, to the proposed appointment of a New Sub-Processor, the parties will endeavour to agree (acting reasonably), without undue delay, the commercially reasonable steps to be taken to ensure that the new Sub-processors is compliant with the Data Protection Legislation. In the absence of a resolution, Cymulate will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer with the same level of service described in the Agreement, without using the objected Sub-Processor to Process Customer’s Personal Data.

5.3. Where the Customer reasonably argues that the risks involved with the sub-processing activities are still unacceptable, in the context of the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation, and in relation to the appropriate steps, within the requisite time frame, and the parties are unable to resolve the issues within such time frame, Customer’s sole remedy will be to terminate the Agreement.

5.4. With respect to each Sub-processors, Cymulate shall ensure that the Sub-processor is bound by data protection obligations compatible with those of the Data Processor under this Addendum.

6. Data Subject Rights

6.1. Customer shall comply with requests received from Data Subjects to exercise their rights pursuant to the Data Protection Legislation, with regard to accessing Customer’s Personal Data held by Cymulate.

6.2. When Customer is unable to perform according to section 6.1, and therefore requires Cymulate’s assistance, while taking into account the nature of the Processing, Cymulate shall assist Customer, upon Customer’s request and at the Customer’s cost, by using appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as this is possible to comply with requests to exercise Data Subject rights, under the Data Protection Legislation.

7. Personal Data Breach

7.1. When Cymulate becomes aware of a data breach that has a material impact on the Processing of Personal Data that is the subject to the Agreement, it shall notify Customer about the data breach.

In the event of such an objection, Customer shall appoint another auditor or conduct the audit itself.

10. Transfers

10.1. Information may be transferred internationally to third party companies and individuals to facilitate Cymulate’s Services. To the extent that Cymulate or its Sub-processors are required to conduct such international transfer with respect to Customer Personal Data, Cymulate shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security, appropriate to the risk, while taking into account the state of the art, costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing as well as the likelihood of a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

10.2. When required to assure the data protection of the Personal Data transferred, Cymulate will assure the execution of the applicable model of the SCC, which shall be incorporated herein upon execution of this Addendum. Annex II of the SCCs shall be deemed completed with the information set out in Exhibit 2 to this Addendum.

10.3. To the extent that Cymulate or Customer are relying on a specific statutory mechanism to normalize international data transfers and that mechanism is subsequently modified, revoked, or held in a court of a competent jurisdiction to be invalid, Cymulate or Customer agree to cooperate in good faith to promptly suspend the transfer or to pursue a suitable alternate mechanism that can lawfully support the transfer.
