THE SCHEDULE
DATA PROCESSING
In this Schedule, the terms "personal data", "processing", "data subject", "controller", "processor", and "personal data breach" shall have the meanings defined in Article 4 of the UK GDPR, and the terms "Data Processor" and "Data Controller" shall have the same meanings as "processor" and "controller" respectively. The term "domestic law" means the law of the United Kingdom or a part thereof.
Both Parties shall comply with all applicable data protection requirements set out in the Data Protection Legislation. Nothing in this Schedule shall relieve either Party of any obligations set out in the Data Protection Legislation and shall not remove or replace any of those obligations.
For the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation and for this Schedule, you are the "Data Controller" and We are the "Data Processor".
The scope, nature, and purpose of the processing; the duration of the processing; the type(s) of personal data; and the category or categories of data subjectis set out in the table below.
The Data Controller shall (without prejudice to the generality of paragraph ii) ensure that it has in place all necessary consents and notices required to enable the lawful transfer of personal data to and/or the lawful collection of personal data by the Data Processor for the purposes described in these Terms and Conditions.
The Data Processor shall (without prejudice to the generality of paragraph ii), with respect to any personal data processed by it in relation to its performance of any of its obligations under these Terms and Conditions:
process the personal data only on the express instructions of the Data Controller unless the Data Processor is otherwise required to process such personal data by domestic law. The Data Processor shall promptly notify the Data Controller before carrying out such processing unless it is prohibited from doing so by that law;
ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures (as approved by the Data Controller) to protect the personal data from unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, damage, or destruction. Such measures shall be appropriate and proportionate to the potential harm resulting from such events and to the nature, scope, and context of the personal data and processing involved, taking into account the current state of the art in technology and the cost of implementing those measures. Measures to be taken are set out below;
ensure that any and all persons with access to the personal data (whether for processing purposes or otherwise) are contractually obliged to keep that personal data confidential;
not transfer any personal data outside of the UK without the prior express consent of the Data Controller and only if the following conditions are satisfied:
the Data Controller and/or the Data Processor has/have provided appropriate safeguards for the transfer of personal data;
affected data subjects have enforceable rights and effective legal remedies;
the Data Processor complies with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation, providing an adequate level of protection to any and all personal data so transferred; and
the Data Processor complies with all reasonable instructions given in advance by the Data Controller with respect to the processing of the personal data;
assist the Data Controller, at the Data Controller's cost, in responding to any and all requests from data subjects and in ensuring its compliance with the Data Protection Legislation with respect to impact assessments, security, breach notifications, and consultations with supervisory authorities or other applicable regulatory authorities (including, but not limited to, the Information Commissioner's Office);
notify the Data Controller without undue delay of any personal data breach of which it becomes aware;
on the Data Controller's express instruction, delete (or otherwise dispose of) or return all personal data and any and all copies thereof to the Data Controller on termination of your Account unless it is required to retain any of the personal data by domestic law; and
maintain complete and accurate records of all processing activities and technical and organisational measures implemented necessary to demonstrate compliance with this The Schedule and to allow for audits, including inspections, by the Data Controller and/or any party designated by the Data Controller. The Data Processor shall inform the Data Controller immediately if, in its opinion, any instruction infringes the Data Protection Legislation.
The Data Processor shall not sub-contract any of its obligations with respect to the processing of personal data under this Schedule to another processor without the prior express consent of the Data Controller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). In the event that the Data Processor appoints another processor, the Data Processor shall:
enter into a written agreement with the other processor, which shall impose upon that other processor substantially the same obligations as are imposed upon the Data Processor by this Schedule, which the Data Processor shall ensure reflect the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation at all times;
ensure that the other processor complies fully with its obligations under that agreement and the Data Protection Legislation; and
remain fully liable to the Data Controller for the performance of that other processor's obligations and the acts or omissions thereof.
The Data Processor may, at any time, and on at least thirty days' notice, alter this Schedule, replacing it with any applicable data processing clauses or similar terms adopted by the Information Commissioner or that form part of an applicable certification scheme.
