Clause 1: Definitions  

For the purposes of the Clauses:  

1.1. personal data, special categories of data, process/processing, controller, processor, data subject and supervisory authority shall 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;  

1.2. the data exporter means the controller who transfers the personal data;  

1.3. 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;  

1.4. 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; 

1.5. 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;  

1.6. 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 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 4.2 to 4.9, Clause  5.1 to 5.5, and 5.7 to 5.10, Clause 6.1 and 6.2, 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 5.1 to 5.5 and  5.7, 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 5.1 to 5.5 and  5.7, 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 shall be limited to its own processing  operations under the Clauses.

4.5. that it will ensure compliance with the security measures;  

4.6. 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;

4.7. to forward any notification received from the data importer or any subprocessor pursuant  to Clause 5.2 and Clause 8.3 to the data protection supervisory authority if the data exporter  decides to continue the transfer or to lift the suspension;

Clause 5: Obligations of the data importer  

The data importer agrees and warrants:  

5.1. 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;  

5.2. 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;  

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

5.4. that it will promptly notify the data exporter about:

5.7. 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;  

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

5.9. that the processing services by the subprocessor will be carried out in accordance with  Clause 11;

6.2. If a data subject is not able to bring a claim for compensation in accordance with paragraph  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 6.1 and 6.2, 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:  

7.1.1. to refer the dispute to mediation, by an independent person or, where applicable, by the  supervisory authority;  

7.1.2. 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 8.2. In such a case the data exporter shall  be entitled to take the measures foreseen in Clause 5.2.  

 

Clause 9: Governing 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 Clause. 

 

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 the Clauses. 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.
