Addendum; (iii) as necessary to provide the Gather Services; or (iv) as required
by applicable law or a valid and binding order of a law enforcement agency.
Except as otherwise required by law, Gather will promptly notify Customer of any
subpoena, judicial, administrative or arbitral order of an executive or
administrative agency or other governmental authority (“Demand”) that it
receives, and which relates to the Personal Data. At Customer’s request, Gather

laws and this Addendum.

5. Data Subject Request
Gather will promptly notify Customer if Gather receives a request from a Data
Subject to exercise the Data Subject’s right of access, right to correct or
rectification, right to object to the Processing, right of erasure (‘right to be
forgotten’), data portability, restrict processing, or right not to be subject
to an automated individual decision making, each such request being a “Data
Subject Request”. Gather shall provide all reasonable and timely assistance to
Customer, including appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar
as this is possible, to enable Customer to respond to any such request from a
Data Subject. In the event that any request from a Data Subject is made directly
to Gather, Gather shall promptly inform Customer and provide the full details of
the request to Customer. 




6. Security

In the event of a Security Incident that impacts Customer Personal Data, Gather
will notify Customer without undue delay from when Gather becomes aware of the
Security Incident. In addition, Gather will investigate the Security Incident
and provide Customer with information about the Security Incident sufficient for
Customer to comply with any data breach notification requirements under Data
Protection Laws. Gather will also take reasonable steps to mitigate the effects
and to minimize any damage resulting from the Security Incident. Gather’s
obligation to report or respond to a Security Incident as provided herein is not
and will not be construed as an acknowledgement by Gather of any fault or
liability with respect to the Security Incident.



8. Audit and Records
8.1. The parties agree that any audit conducted under this Addendum, including
under Clauses 5(f) or 12(2) of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, shall be
conducted in accordance with the specifications identified in this Section 8.1.
Customer may not conduct an audit more than once per calendar year unless
Customer is required or requested to conduct an audit by a Supervisory Authority
or any similar regulatory authority responsible for the enforcement of Data
Protection Laws in any country or territory. Customer may contact Gather in
accordance with the “Notice” provision of the Agreement to request an on-site
audit of Gather’s procedures related to the protection of Personal Data. Before
Customer can conduct an onsite audit of Gather’s procedures, Gather and Customer
shall mutually agree upon the timing, scope and duration of the audit. Customer
shall reimburse Gather for any costs and expenses incurred by Gather as a result
of the audit. In addition, the audit shall be conducted in such a way to avoid
causing (or, if it cannot be avoided, to minimize) any damage, injury or
disruption to Gather’s virtual premises, equipment, personnel and business
operations while Customer’s personnel are on those virtual premises in the
course of such an audit or inspection. Any audit conducted under this Section
8.1 shall be limited to Gather’s virtual premises (Gather does not have a
physical business location). If the EU Standard Contractual Clauses apply, then
nothing herein shall be construed as affecting any Supervisory Authority’s or
data subject’s rights under the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
‍
8.2. Gather will keep a record of any Processing of Personal Data it carries out
on behalf of Customer, which it shall make available to the relevant Supervisory
Authority on request, and which shall include:
a) the name and contact details of Gather and of Customer on whose behalf it is
acting, and where applicable, Customer’s representative and data protection
officer;
b) the categories of Processing carried out on behalf of Customer;
c) transfers of Personal Data to a third country or international organization
and the basis on which those transfers are compliant; and
d) a description of data security measures taken by Gather.

9. Sub-processors
You agree that we may engage Sub-processors to Process Personal Data on your
behalf. We have currently appointed, as Sub-processors, the third parties listed
in Annex 3 to this DPA. We will notify you if we add or replace any
Sub-processors listed in Annex 3 at least 30 days prior to any such changes, if
you opt-in to receive such email prior to any such changes by completing the
form available here.

‍Where we engage Sub-processors, we will impose data protection terms on the
Sub-processors that provide at least the same level of protection for Personal
Data as those in this DPA (including, where appropriate, the Standard
Contractual Clauses), to the extent applicable to the nature of the services
provided by such Sub-processors. We will remain responsible for each
Sub-processor’s compliance with the obligations of this DPA and for any acts or
omissions of such Sub-processor that cause us to breach any of its obligations
under this DPA

Customer may object to Gather’s use of a new Sub-processor by notifying Gather
promptly in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of Gather’s notice
regarding the new Sub-processor. If Customer objects to the new Sub-processor,
Gather will use reasonable efforts to make available a change in the Services or
Customer’s use of the Services to avoid Processing of Personal Data by the
Sub-processor objected to by Customer. If Gather is unable to make available
such change within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the notice from Customer,
then Customer may terminate those Services which cannot be provided without the
use of the objected to Sub-processor. If Customer terminates the Services,
Gather will refund Customer any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term
specified in the applicable ordering document following the effective date of
termination. Notwithstanding anything provided herein, Customer acknowledges and
agrees, that Gather may use the Sub-processors identified on Annex 3 to provide
the Gather Services. Gather shall impose the same data protection obligations as
set forth in this Addendum on any Sub-processor prior to the Sub-processor
Processing Personal Data. Gather remains responsible for its Sub-processors and
liable for their acts and omissions as for its own acts and omissions and any
references to Gather’s obligations, acts and omissions in this Addendum shall be
construed as referring also to Gather’s Sub-processors. The parties agree that
any audit rights provided under the terms of this Addendum do not extend to
Gather’s Sub-processors’ facilities.
‍

10. Data Protection Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation
Upon Customer’s request, Gather shall provide reasonable assistance to Customer
with any data protection impact assessments, and prior consultations with
supervisory authorities, which Customer reasonably considers to be required of
Customer by Article 35 or 36 of the GDPR, in each case solely in relation to
Processing of Personal Data by and taking into account the nature of the
Processing and information available to, Gather.
‍

11. Termination
11.1 This Addendum shall continue in full force until the expiration or
termination of the Agreement. 

11.2 Upon the expiration or termination of the Agreement, Customer may extract
Personal Data from the Gather Services. Within thirty (30) days from Customer’s
deletion of a virtual space, Gather will delete Personal Data in accordance with
the terms of the Agreement, except as may be required by law or, if permitted by
applicable law, to resolve disputes or enforce Gather’s legal agreements and
policies. 
‍

12. CCPA Specific Provisions
12.1 Gather is acting as a “Service Provider” on behalf of Customer, a
“Business,” pursuant to the CCPA. Gather will not retain, use or disclose
Customer Data disclosed to it by Customer for any purpose other than the
specific purpose of providing the Gather Services in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement or as otherwise provided in the CCPA.

12.2 Gather will not sell any Customer Data to a third party for monetary or
other valuable consideration.

12.3 Gather will not retain, use or disclose any Customer Data outside of the
direct business relationship between Gather and Customer, except as may be
provided in the CCPA.
‍

13. Miscellaneous
The parties do not anticipate the transfer of sensitive data as part of the
Agreement. Each party’s liability arising out of or related to this Addendum,
whether in contract, tort or under any theory of liability, is subject to the
‘Limitation of Liability’ section of the Agreement. If there is a conflict
between any provision in this Addendum and any provision in the Agreement, this
Addendum shall control. Except for changes made by this Addendum, the Agreement
remains unchanged and in full force and effect. This Addendum shall not restrict
any applicable Data Protection Laws. If any provision in this Addendum is
ineffective or void, this shall not affect the remaining provisions. The parties
shall replace the ineffective or void provision with a lawful provision that
reflects the business purpose of the ineffective or void provision. In case a
necessary provision is missing, the parties shall add an appropriate one in good
faith. In case of conflict, the order of precedence in respect of the Processing
of Personal Data shall be this Addendum and then the Agreement. If the EU
Standard Contractual Clauses are an integral part of this Addendum, then the EU
Standard Contractual Clauses shall prevail. This Addendum supersedes and
replaces all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other
understandings relating to the subject matter of this Addendum. This Addendum
may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an
original and all of which taken together will be deemed to constitute one and
the same document.

‍

SECTION II – OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
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

On request, the data exporter shall make a copy of these Clauses, including the
Appendix as completed by the Parties, available to the data subject free of
charge. To the extent necessary to protect business secrets or other
confidential information, including the measures described in Annex II and
personal data, the data exporter may redact part of the text of the Appendix to
these Clauses prior to sharing a copy, but shall provide a meaningful summary
where the data subject would otherwise not be able to understand the its content
or exercise his/her rights. On request, the Parties shall provide the data
subject with the reasons for the redactions, to the extent possible without
revealing the redacted information. 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).

8.6. Security of processing

(a) The data importer and, during transmission, also the data exporter shall
implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the
security of the data, including protection against a breach of security leading
to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure
or access to that data (hereinafter ‘personal data breach’). In assessing the
appropriate level of security, the Parties shall take due account of the state
of the art, the costs of implementation, the nature, scope, context and
purpose(s) of processing and the risks involved in the processing for the data
subjects. 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 organizational 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
authorized 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. The data importer shall also notify the data exporter without undue
delay after having become aware of the breach. 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.

8.7 Sensitive data

Where the transfer involves personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin,
political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union
membership, genetic data, or biometric data for the purpose of uniquely
identifying a natural person, data concerning health or a person’s sex life or
sexual orientation, or data relating to criminal convictions and offences
(hereinafter ‘sensitive data’), the data importer shall apply the specific
restrictions and/or additional safeguards described in Annex I.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 (4) (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,
under the appropriate Module, 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;
(ii) the third party otherwise ensures appropriate safeguards pursuant to
Articles 46 or 47 Regulation of (EU) 2016/679 with respect to the processing in
question;
(iii) the onward transfer is necessary for the establishment, exercise or
defence of legal claims in the context of specific administrative, regulatory or
judicial proceedings; or
(iv) the onward transfer is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of
the data subject or of another natural person.

Any onward transfer is subject to compliance by the data importer with all the
other safeguards under these Clauses, in particular purpose limitation.

8.9 Documentation and compliance

(a) The data importer shall promptly and adequately deal with enquiries from the
data exporter that relate to the processing under these Clauses.

(b) The Parties shall be able to demonstrate compliance with these Clauses. In
particular, the data importer shall keep appropriate documentation on the
processing activities carried out on behalf of the data exporter.

(c) The data importer shall make available to the data exporter all information
necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set out in these
Clauses and at the data exporter’s request, allow for and contribute to audits
of the processing activities covered by these Clauses, at reasonable intervals
or if there are indications of non-compliance. In deciding on a review or audit,
the data exporter may take into account relevant certifications held by the data
importer.

(d) The data exporter may choose to conduct the audit by itself or mandate an
independent auditor. Audits may include inspections at the premises or physical
facilities of the data importer and shall, where appropriate, be carried out
with reasonable notice.

(e) The Parties shall make the information referred to in paragraphs (b) and
(c), including the results of any audits, available to the competent supervisory
authority on request.
‍

Clause 9
Use of Sub-processors
‍‍
(a) The data importer has the data exporter’s general authorisation for the
engagement of Sub- processor(s) from an agreed list. The data importer shall
specifically inform the data exporter in writing of any intended changes to that
list through the addition or replacement of Sub- processors at least thirty (30)
days in advance, thereby giving the data exporter sufficient time to be able to
object to such changes prior to the engagement of the Sub-processor(s). 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. (8) The Parties agree
that, by complying with this Clause, the data importer fulfils its obligations
under Clause

8.8. The data importer shall ensure that the Sub-processor complies with the
obligations to which the data importer is subject pursuant to these Clauses.

(c) The data importer shall provide, at the data exporter’s request, a copy of

subject, and the data subject shall be entitled to receive compensation, for any
material or non-material damages the data exporter or the data importer (or its
Sub-processor) causes the data subject by breaching the third-party beneficiary
rights under these Clauses. This is without prejudice to the liability of the
data exporter and, where the data exporter is a processor acting on behalf of a
controller, to the liability of the controller under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or
Regulation (EU) 2018/1725, as applicable.

(d) The Parties agree that if the data exporter is held liable under paragraph

shall be entitled to claim back from the other Party/ies that part of the
compensation corresponding to its/their responsibility for the damage.

own liability.
‍

Clause 13
Supervision
‍‍
(a) Where the data exporter is established in an EU Member State: The
supervisory authority with responsibility for ensuring compliance by the data
exporter with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 as regards the data transfer, as
indicated in Annex I.C, shall act as competent supervisory authority.

Where the data exporter is not established in an EU Member State, but falls
within the territorial scope of application of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 in
accordance with its Article 3(2) and has appointed a representative pursuant to
Article 27(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679: The supervisory authority of the
Member State in which the representative within the meaning of Article 27(1) of
Regulation (EU) 2016/679 is established, as indicated in Annex I.C, shall act as
competent supervisory authority.

Where the data exporter is not established in an EU Member State, but falls
within the territorial scope of application of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 in
accordance with its Article 3(2) without however having to appoint a
representative pursuant to Article 27(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679: The
supervisory authority of one of the Member States in which the data subjects
whose personal data is transferred under these Clauses in relation to the
offering of goods or services to them, or whose behaviour is monitored, are
located, as indicated in Annex I.C, shall act as competent supervisory
authority.

(b) The data importer agrees to submit itself to the jurisdiction of and
cooperate with the competent supervisory authority in any procedures aimed at

necessary actions have been taken.
‍

SECTION III – LOCAL LAWS AND OBLIGATIONS IN CASE OF ACCESS BY PUBLIC AUTHORITIES
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 (12);

(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 by 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 personal data 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 personal data
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
Clause 16
Non-compliance with the Clauses and termination
‍‍
15.1. Notification

(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
‍‍
15.1. Notification

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 these Clauses shall be governed in accordance with the 'Contracting Entity;
Applicable Law; Notice’ section of the Jurisdiction Specific Terms or if such
section does not specify an EU Member State, by the law of the Republic of
Ireland (without reference to conflicts of law principles)
‍

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 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.

(d) The Parties agree to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of such courts.

supervisory authority" shall be the United Kingdom Information Commissioner or
Swiss Federal Data Protection Information Commissioner (as applicable);

(vii) in Clause 17, the Standard Contractual Clauses shall be governed by the
laws of England and Wales or Switzerland (as applicable); and

(viii) to the extent the UK GDPR applies to the processing, Clause 18 shall be
replaced to state: “Any dispute arising from these Clauses shall be resolved by
the courts of England and Wales. A data subject may also bring legal proceedings
against the data exporter and/or data importer before the courts of any country
in the UK. The Parties agree to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of such
courts”; and
