    4. ELSA shall inform Customer without undue delay if, in ELSA’s opinion, an instruction for the Processing of Personal Data given by Customer infringes applicable Data Protection Laws. To the extent that ELSA cannot comply with an instruction from Customer, ELSA (i) shall inform Customer, providing relevant details of the issue, (ii) ELSA may, without liability to Customer, temporarily cease all Processing of the affected Personal Data (other than securely storing such data) and/or suspend Customer’s access to the Services, and (iii) if the Parties do not agree on a resolution to the issue in question and the costs thereof, Customer may, as its sole remedy, terminate the Agreement and this DPA with respect to the affected Processing, and Customer shall pay to ELSA all the amounts owed to ELSA or due before the date of termination. Customer will have no further claims against ELSA (including, without limitation, requesting refunds for Services) pursuant to the termination of the Agreement and the DPA as described in this paragraph.
    5. Details of the Processing. The subject-matter of Processing of Personal Data by ELSA is the performance of the Services pursuant to the Agreement and the purposes set forth in this DPA. The duration of the Processing, the nature and purpose of the Processing, the types of Personal Data and categories of Data Subjects Processed under this DPA are further specified in Schedule 1 (Details of Processing) to this DPA.
    6. CCPA Terms. If Customer is a Business under the CCPA and ELSA Processes Personal Data hereunder that is subject to the CCPA, the terms set forth in Schedule 3 (CCPA Terms) hereto shall apply and bind the Parties with regard to such Personal Data and the Processing thereof.
  3. DATA SUBJECT REQUESTS. ELSA shall, to the extent legally permitted, notify Customer or refer Data Subjects to Customer, if ELSA receives a request from a Data Subject to exercise their rights under Data Protection Laws concerning the Personal Data (“Data Subject Request”). Taking into account the nature of the Processing, ELSA shall assist Customer by implementing appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as this is possible and reasonable, for the fulfillment of Customer’s obligation to respond to Data Subject Requests under Data Protection Laws.
  4. CONFIDENTIALITY. ELSA shall ensure that its personnel and advisors engaged in the Processing of Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality and appropriate trainings.
  5. SUB-PROCESSORS
    1. Appointment of Sub-processors. Customer acknowledges and agrees that (a) ELSA may engage Sub-processors to Process Personal Data on behalf of Customer; (b) ELSA’s Affiliates may be engaged as Sub-processors; and (c) ELSA and ELSA’s Affiliates on behalf of ELSA may each engage third-party Sub-processors in connection with the provision of the Services. A list of Sub-processors currently used by ELSA is provided here (“Sub-Processors List”). The Sub-Processors List as of the date of first use of the Services by Customer is hereby deemed authorized upon first use of the Services.
    2. Agreements with Sub-processors. ELSA or ELSA’s Affiliate on behalf of ELSA has entered into a written agreement with each Sub-processor containing appropriate safeguards for the protection of Personal Data. Where ELSA engages a Sub-processor for carrying out specific Processing activities on behalf of the Customer, the same or materially similar data protection obligations as set out in this DPA shall be imposed on such new Sub-processor by way of a contract, in particular obligations to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in such as a manner that the Processing will meet the requirements of the relevant Data Protection Laws. Where a Sub-processor fails to fulfill its data protection obligations concerning its Processing of Personal Data, ELSA shall remain responsible for the performance of the Sub-processor’s obligations.
    3. Notification and Objection to New Sub-processors. ELSA may engage with a new Sub-processor (“New Sub-processor“) to Process Personal Data in connection with the provision of the Services. Customer shall subscribe to ELSA’s notifications regarding new Sub-processors using the Tools-> Notification settings->Edits->Added or removed content menu in the Sub-Processors List. ELSA shall give notice of the planned appointment of any new Sub-processor(s). Customer may object to the Processing of Personal Data by the New Sub-processor, for reasonable and explained grounds relating to the protection of Personal Data, by providing a written objection to [email protected] within 10 days following notification to Customer of the engagement with the New Sub-processor. If Customer sends ELSA a written objection notice in a timely manner, the parties will make a good-faith effort to resolve Customer’s objection. In the absence of a resolution, ELSA will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer with the same level of Services, without using the New Sub-processor to Process Personal Data.
  6. SECURITY & AUDITS
    1. Controls for the Protection of Personal Data. ELSA shall maintain industry-standard technical and organizational measures for protection of Personal Data, including those measures set forth in the Security Documentation.
    2. Audits. Upon Customer’s 14 days prior written request at reasonable intervals (no more than once every 12 months), and subject to strict confidentiality undertakings by Customer, ELSA shall make available to Customer that is not a competitor of ELSA (or Customer’s independent, reputable, third-party auditor that is not a competitor of ELSA and not in conflict with ELSA, subject to their confidentiality and non-compete undertakings) information necessary to demonstrate that Personal Data is Processed in a manner consistent with ELSA’s obligations under this DPA. Such information shall only be used by Customer to assess compliance with this DPA, and shall not be used for any other purpose or disclosed to any third party without ELSA’s prior written approval. Upon ELSA’s first request, Customer shall return all records or documentation in Customer’s possession or control provided by ELSA in the context of the audit. If and to the extent that the SSC apply, nothing in this Section 6.2 varies or modifies the SCC nor affects any Supervisory Authority’s or Data Subject’s rights under the SCC.
    3. In the event that such audit uncovers unauthorized Processing of Personal Data, Customer shall have the right to, upon notice, take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate such unauthorized Processing.
    4. The audit rights set forth in ‎6.2 above, shall only apply to the extent that the Agreement does not otherwise provide Customer with audit rights that meet the relevant requirements of Data Protection Laws.
  7. DATA INCIDENT MANAGEMENT AND NOTIFICATION
    ELSA maintains security incident management policies and procedures and shall notify Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to Personal Data Processed by ELSA on behalf of the Customer (a “Data Incident”), or data incident or breach as otherwise defined in applicable Data Protection Laws involving Personal Data Processed by ELSA on behalf of the Customer. ELSA shall make reasonable efforts to identify and take those steps as ELSA deems necessary and reasonable in order to remediate and/or mitigate the cause of such Data Incident. The obligations herein shall not apply to incidents that are caused by Customer or anyone who uses the Services on Customer’s behalf. Customer will not make, disclose, release or publish any finding, admission of liability, communication, notice, press release or report concerning any Data Incident which directly or indirectly identifies ELSA (including in any legal proceeding or in any notification to regulatory or supervisory authorities or affected individuals) without ELSA’s prior written approval, unless, and solely to the extent that, Customer is compelled to do so pursuant to applicable Data Protection Laws. In the latter case, unless prohibited by such laws, Customer shall provide ELSA with reasonable prior written notice to provide ELSA with the opportunity to object to such disclosure and in any case, Customer will limit the disclosure to the minimum scope required.
  8. RETURN AND DELETION OF PERSONAL DATA
    Within 90 days following termination of the Agreement and subject thereto, ELSA shall delete all the Personal Data it Processes solely on behalf of the Customer unless Data Protection Laws require otherwise. To the extent authorized or required by applicable law, ELSA may also retain one copy of the Personal Data solely for evidence purposes and/or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims and/or for compliance with legal obligations.
  9. CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFERS
    1. Applicable Data Protection Laws in certain jurisdictions may require additional/different safeguards or transfer mechanism to facilitate cross-border transfers. In such a case, the Parties agree to cooperate and implement such additional safeguards or adopt such transfer mechanisms, as appropriate and necessary.
    2. In the event of any Onward Transfer by ELSA, it shall procure that the Sub-processor to which the Personal Data is transferred to provides sufficient guarantees to protect the Personal Data, and observes no less onerous obligations as those imposed on ELSA under the original relevant transfer and adopts the necessary transfer mechanism.
    3. Personal Data may be transferred from the EEA, Switzerland or UK, to a destination outside of these, provided the transfer complies with applicable provisions regarding the transfer of Personal Data to countries outside of the EEA, Switzerland or UK under Data Protection Laws (such as where the transfer of Personal Data is performed subject to an adequacy decision by the relevant supervisory authority) or through the use of SSC (including as incorporated by reference in Schedule 2 when the transfer is between the Parties), or other applicable frameworks.
    4. ELSA represents and warrants that any Personal Data originating from Japan that is transferred to countries outside the EEA and UK shall be subject to privacy, data protection and data security safeguards that are no less onerous than the ones that apply under the APPI.
  10. AUTHORIZED AFFILIATES
    1. Contractual Relationship. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, by executing the DPA, the Customer enters into the DPA on behalf of itself and, as applicable, in the name and on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates, in which case each Authorized Affiliate agrees to be bound by the Customer’s obligations under this DPA, if and to the extent that ELSA Processes Personal Data on the behalf of such Authorized Affiliates. All access to and use of the Services by Authorized Affiliates must comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this DPA and any violation of the terms and conditions therein by an Authorized Affiliate shall be deemed a violation by Customer.
    2. Communication. Customer shall remain responsible for coordinating all communication with ELSA under the Agreement and this DPA, including for Authorized Affiliates, and shall be entitled to make and receive any communication in relation to this DPA on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates.
  11. Data Protection Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation. Upon Customer’s reasonable request, ELSA shall provide Customer, at Customer’s cost, with reasonable cooperation and assistance needed to fulfill Customer’s obligation under Data Protection Laws to carry out a data protection impact assessment or data protection assessment (as applicable) related to Customer’s use of the Services, to the extent Customer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information and to the extent such information is available to ELSA. ELSA shall provide, at Customer’s cost, reasonable assistance to Customer in the cooperation or prior consultation with Supervisory Authorities in the performance of its tasks relating to this Section 11, to the extent required under the applicable Data Protection Laws.
  12. Governing Law. To the maximum extent permitted by law, this DPA shall be governed by the laws governing the Agreement, except for those provisions of clauses which dictate the application of another law for particular purposes.
  13. Modifications. Each Party may request in writing variations to this DPA if they are required as a result of any change in, or decision of a competent authority under Data Protection Laws, to allow Processing of Personal Data to be made (or continue to be made) in accordance with the Agreement or this DPA without breach of those Data Protection Laws.
