Neither Party acting as a Processor hereunder shall respond to any such request without the other Party’s prior written consent except to confirm that the request relates to such Processor unless it is required under applicable Data Protection Laws.
6. The Parties’ Personnel and Subcontractors.
6.1 Each Party shall ensure that its and its Affiliates’ personnel, subcontractors and service providers that are engaged in the Processing of Personal Data: (i) are informed of the confidential nature of the Personal Data; (ii) receive appropriate security and privacy awareness training (or refresher sessions) on their responsibilities and are subject to obligations of confidentiality and such obligations survive the termination of that persons’ or subcontractors’ engagement with such party; and (iii) access to Personal Data is limited to those who require such access for the purpose of performing under the Agreement. All relevant Affiliates, subcontractors and service providers, to whom a Party transfers Personal Data in the course of the performance of the Agreement have entered into written agreements with such Party or other legal instruments that bind them by substantially the same material obligations under this DPA.
6.2 Each Party shall: (i) be responsible for the sufficiency of the security, privacy, and confidentiality safeguards of its and its Affiliates’ personnel, subcontractors and service providers with respect to the Personal Data; and (ii) be liable for any failure by its and its Affiliates’ personnel, subcontractors and service providers to comply with the terms of this DPA. Each Party assumes all responsibility for the acts and omissions of its and its Affiliates’ personnel, subcontractors and services providers, in connection with the Processing of Personal Data.
7. Controllers, Processors and Subprocessors.
7.1 In order to provide the Data Subject with certain services as part of the Mobility Products, HERE acting as Processor hereunder shall be authorized to engage with certain third party service providers that shall act in the capacity of a Controller (including with respect to Data for which HERE acts as a Processor) to the extent that it is required in order to carry out the Mobility Products functions in the course of the Partner’s engagement with HERE (each, an “External Controller”). In each such case, HERE shall enter into a written contract with each External Controller which imposes at least equivalent obligations on each such External Controller as are imposed on HERE under this Agreement and in such a manner that the Processing of Personal Data will meet the requirements of the applicable Data Protection Laws. Partner agrees to notify its applicable Data Subjects on such External Controllers in its online terms of use and privacy policy, and shall be responsible for establishing a legal basis including and where required, obtaining all consents and approvals and making all notices (as applicable), required by applicable Data Protection Laws in connection with the sharing of Personal Data of the applicable Data Subjects with such External Controllers. HERE uses Twilio Inc., as an External Controller, for the purposes of providing HERE with telecommunication connectivity services, which enables HERE, amongst other functionalities, to programmatically send and receive text messages, as part of the Mobility Products.
7.2 A Party acting as Processor hereunder shall be authorized to subcontract the Processing of Personal Data to processors and subprocessors, as applicable and as reasonably required for its performance under the Agreement. In such case, such Processor shall enter into a written contract with its subprocessor which imposes at least equivalent obligations on the subprocessor as are imposed on such Processor under this Agreement; such contract shall include a description of the technical and organizational measures, which the subprocessor has to implement in such a manner that the Processing will meet the requirements of the applicable Data Protection Laws. If required by the Controller, such Processor will inform the Controller of the name, address and role of each involved subprocessor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, HERE´s use of processors (in such cases where HERE is the “Controller” of Personal Data), including its use of any payment processing service providers, is at HERE´s sole discretion.
7.3 A Party acting as Processor hereunder shall notify the Controller in advance (by email or by posting it in the Account) of any changes to the list of subprocessors in place on the Effective Date (except for emergency replacements or deletions of subprocessors without replacement). If the Controller has a legitimate reason that relates to the subprocessor´s Processing of Personal Data, the Controller may object to Processor´s use of a subprocessor, by notifying Processor in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of Processor`s notice and in such event the Parties will discuss a resolution in good faith. Processor may choose to: (i) refrain from using the subprocessor, or (ii) take the corrective steps requested by the Controller as specified in its objection and use the subprocessor. If none of these options are reasonably possible and the Controller continues to object for a legitimate reason, either Party may terminate the Agreement on thirty (30) days´ written notice. If the Controller does not object within ten (10) days of receipt of the notice, the Controller is deemed to have accepted the new subprocessor. Where legally required, the Processor shall enter into the unchanged version of the Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of personal data to processors established in third countries pursuant to Commission Decision 2010/87/EU (“Standard Contractual Clauses”) prior to the subprocessor´s Processing of Data. Partner hereby accedes to the Standard Contractual Clauses between HERE and its subprocessor.
8. Accountability; Documentation.
8.1 Each Party undertakes to adequately document its privacy practices and activities in relation to the Processing of Personal Data, pursuant to the applicable requirements under applicable Data Protection Laws.
8.2 A Party acting as Processor hereunder shall Process Personal Data only in accordance with the Controller’s written instructions as set forth in this DPA. Such Processor shall inform the Controller, in writing, if it becomes aware or reasonably believes that its Data Processing instructions violate applicable Data Protection Law.
8.3 Each Party’s and its Affiliates’ liability arising out of or related to this DPA (whether in contract, tort or under any other theory of liability) is subject to Section 10 (‘Limitation of Liability’) of the Agreement, and any reference in such section to the liability of a Party means that Party and its Affiliates in the aggregate.
9. Deletion or Return of Personal Data.
9.1 Where a Party Processes Personal Data as a Processor hereunder, it shall, at the choice of the other Party, delete or return all the Personal Data to the other Party upon termination or expiration of the Agreement, and delete all existing copies of the Personal Data at its possession or control, unless: (i) applicable laws require the retention of such Personal Data for a certain period of time by Processor and/or its subprocessors, or (ii) if such retention is otherwise legally permitted. If such retention is legally permitted and/or required, then Processor and/or its subprocessors may retain such Personal Data for such purposes; provided that such Personal Data is afforded continuous protection under the terms set forth in this DPA, regardless of the expiration or termination of the Agreement, until such Personal Data is permanently deleted.
9.2 Where a Party is allowed or legally required to retain Personal Data according to applicable law, such Party will only retain such Personal Data in accordance with the procedures and timeframes specified in its data retention and destruction policies and procedures, and applicable law.
10. Anonymized and Aggregated Data
Partner acknowledges and agrees that HERE may render anonymous Personal Data so that it no longer relates to an identified or identifiable natural person or that a Data Subject is no longer identifiable (“De-Identified Data”), and may maintain, use and distribute such De-Identified Data for its own purposes; and Partner agrees to the extent required under this DPA and/or applicable Data Protection Law to include the relevant language and terms in its privacy policy, and inform the applicable Data Subjects, and to the extent legally required, obtain legal and valid consent or establish another legal basis regarding such usage by HERE in accordance with applicable Data Protection Laws.
11. Audit Rights.
11.1 Each Party may audit the other Party’s privacy and security practices to determine and ensure compliance under this DPA if: (i) a Security Incident has occurred; (ii) the auditing Party reasonably suspects that the other Party is not in compliance with its obligations under this DPA; (iii) an audit is formally requested from it by a competent data protection authority; or (iv) applicable Data Protection Laws provides the auditing Party with a direct audit right. Such audit may only be performed via a reputable third party auditor (who does not have a conflict of interests, and is bound by strict confidentiality obligations), upon at least thirty (30) days prior written notice. The audited Party will reasonably support the auditing
Party in its auditing process. An audit will be limited to once in a calendar year and limited to a maximum of one business day, during normal business hours and without disrupting the audited Party’s regular course of business, and the auditing Party will bear its own audit costs. All the information provided by the audited Party or obtained by the auditing Party as part of an audit shall be considered as the audited Party’s Confidential Information.
11.2 If the Standard Contractual Clauses apply, nothing in this Section 11 varies or modifies the Standard Contractual Clauses nor affects the supervisory authorities’ or Data Subjects’ rights under the Standard Contractual Clauses.
12. Technical and Organizational Measures
12.1 During the term of the Agreement, each Party will implement and maintain administrative, physical and technical organizational measures (including with respect to its personnel, facilities, hardware and software, storage and networks, access controls, monitoring and logging, and incident response) to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of the Personal Data, pursuant to the Party’s information security policies and procedures and as required by applicable Data Protection Laws. Each Party will regularly monitor compliance with these safeguards ensuring a level of protection that is reasonable and sufficient in terms of the risks related to the Processing taking into account the nature of the involved Personal Data. Partner shall provide HERE with a copy of its technical and organizational measures simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement unless Partner’s technical and organizational measures are substantially similar to those set forth in Section 12.2 below. In such case, Partner hereby represents and warrants to HERE that: (i) its implemented technical and organizational measures are in compliance with applicable Data Protection Laws and are at least as protective as those set forth in Section 12.2 below; and (ii) it shall promptly notify HERE, in writing, if there is any change in its implemented technical and organizational measures and shall provide HERE with a copy of its updated implemented technical and organizational measures.
12.2 The following defines HERE´s current security measures. HERE assures Partner that it: (i) ensures that its senior management assigns security responsibilities and reviews the implementation of security within the organization. Senior management has nominated appropriate personnel to be responsible for the overall security, risk management, information security, privacy and controls for handling Personal Data; (ii) has established and demonstrates commitment to security through an organization-wide security policy (“Security Policy”). The Security Policy and related guidelines are communicated to all HERE employees, subcontractors and services providers; (iii) has its own, dedicated information classification schema based on information sensitivity (for example, internal, confidential, and secret) and established measures to ensure that information ownership is defined at all times. This schema includes appropriate security controls to protect Partner information, Personal Data and assets, where applicable; (iv) conducts security risk assessments as part of its normal business operations at least at an annual frequency, incorporating emerging threats, possible business impacts and probabilities of occurrence; and modifies the security related processes, procedures and guidelines based on the findings in such security risk assessments; (v) has implemented appropriate access control and access rights management designed to ensure that data is only processed by a minimum number of authorized persons who have access to requisite data needed to perform their work-related duties (i.e., role-based access control with least privileges); (vi) maintains the following: processes for authorizing and terminating user access and subcontractor access, including emergency access termination procedure; password management policy including password complexity requirements, no common or shared user accounts in use, password aging where systems do not support use of password managers, and secure delivery of credentials to users; audit records of all existing user privileges, shall be retained and reviewed regularly to remove excess privileges, and processes which ensure segregation of duties; (vii) maintains a sufficient audit trail and the use of access privileges (changes, who, what, when) is in place when dealing with sensitive (confidential or secret) information; (viii) collects logs pertaining to user access to Partner Processed Data and stores such logs for at least three (3) months unless otherwise restricted by local legislation; (ix) has implemented reasonable and appropriate information security measures (e.g., hardening, patching, antivirus, IDS, etc.) to protect Personal Data against unauthorized or accidental access, use, disclosure, deletion, destruction, loss, alteration or amendment; (x) only stores and processes Personal Data in an environment where requisite security controls have been implemented, and ensures that IT infrastructure and networks are designed and managed to protect IT systems, information, users and electronic communications; and (xi) uses industry standard techniques to secure the connectivity between Partner and HERE against eavesdropping and alteration (including wireless access or remote connection), in solutions and services.
12.3 HERE may change the implemented security measures at any time without notice so long as it maintains a comparable or better level of security.
13. Breach Management and Notification.
13.1 Each Party will: (i) maintain security incident management policies and procedures as required under applicable law; and (ii) upon a Party becoming aware of a Security Incident, promptly provide the other Party with written notice thereof. Such notice shall be provided prior to notifying any governmental authority or making any public disclosure thereof, unless prohibited under applicable law. If a Party becomes aware of any Security Incident, it will promptly: (a) investigate the Security Incident and provide the other Party with information about the Security Incident; and (b) take reasonable steps designed to mitigate the effects and to minimize any damage resulting from the Security Incident. Each Party agrees that an unsuccessful Security Incident attempt will not be subject to this Section 13. An unsuccessful Security Incident attempt is one that results in no unauthorized access to, or loss, disclosure or alteration of, Personal Data or to any of a Party’s equipment or facilities storing Personal Data, and may include, without limitation, pings and other broadcast attacks on firewalls or edge servers, port scans, unsuccessful log-on attempts, denial of service attacks, packet sniffing (or other unauthorized access to traffic data that does not result in access beyond IP addresses or headers) or similar incidents; and each Party’s obligation to report or respond to a Security Incident under this Section 13 is not and will not be construed as an acknowledgement by such Party of any fault or liability with respect to the Security Incident. Each Party undertakes to provide commercially reasonable support and assistance to the other Party, for the other Party’s fulfillment of breach notification duties under applicable Data Protection Laws, in relation to Personal Data. Notification(s) of Security Incidents, if any, will be delivered to one or more of the other Party’s business, technical or administrative contacts by any means a Party reasonably selects, including via email. It is each Party’s sole responsibility to ensure it maintains accurate contact information on the other Party’s support systems at all times.
13.2 When and in so far as the Parties are functioning as independent Controllers, each Party represents and warrants to the other Party, that (i) it shall maintain robust security incident management policies and procedures as required under applicable law; and (ii) to the extent it deems it applicable, it shall upon becoming aware of a security breach, provide the other Party with written notice thereof.
14. International Transfers of Data
14.1 The Parties may use, engage in, certify, or self-certify with applicable instruments, measures, contracts and other mechanisms, to facilitate the lawful transfer of Personal Data between territories, as required under applicable Data Protection Laws. The Parties may transfer Data Subjects’ Personal Data in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) to other territories that are formally recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate protection to Personal Data (“Adequacy Recognition”).
14.2 To the extent necessary under applicable Data Protection Laws, the Parties undertake to implement instruments to safeguard international data transfers, such as Module 1, Module 2, Module 3 of the SCC and such other lawful instruments to transfer Personal Data between the Parties and between a Party to its Affiliates, service providers and other third parties. As applicable, if: (i) the Adequacy Recognition is invalidated or otherwise terminated; (ii) the Standard Contractual Clauses are invalidated or no longer in effect; and (iii) any other Personal Data transfer safeguard is no longer in effect for any reason, then the Parties will take such alternative lawful measures, as may be available and applicable, to continue facilitating the lawful transfer of the Personal Data.
14.3 If a Party is unable to provide an alternative measure to continue transferring Personal Data lawfully, then the other Party may terminate this DPA and Agreement, upon a written notice with immediate effect.
14.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Partner acknowledges that Personal Data may be stored and/or processed by or on behalf of HERE in a different country than where Mobility Products are provided. Personal Data from a Partner in the EEA or Switzerland may only be exported or accessed by HERE or its subprocessors outside the EEA or Switzerland, if: (i) the recipient, or the country or territory in which it processes or accesses Data, ensures an adequate level of protection as determined by the European Commission; or (ii) Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of Personal Data to processors established in third countries apply.
15. Term and Termination.
This DPA will commence on the Effective Date of the Agreement, will remain in effect for the duration of the Agreement and shall survive expiration or termination of the Agreement. If a Party is unable to or becomes unable to comply with any of the terms and conditions of this DPA, in good faith, then the other Party may immediately terminate the Agreement upon a written notice.
16. Compliance.
Each Party will designate a privacy contact and/or data protection officer, to oversee the Processing of the Personal Data and to serve as a point of contact for the other Party on privacy and data protection matters. HERE’s designated contact may be reached by email at privacy@here.com. Partner shall, within 5 business days from executing the Agreement, email to such mailbox the contact information of Partner’s designated privacy contact; provided that if Partner fails to do so, Partner agrees that HERE may send any notices pertaining to this DPA to the email address associated with its Account.
17. Miscellaneous
This DPA supersedes and replaces all prior and contemporaneous proposals, statements, sales materials or presentations and agreements, oral and written, with regard to the subject matter of this DPA, including any prior data processing addenda entered into between HERE and Partner. Nothing in this DPA reduces the Parties’ obligations under the Agreement, including in relation to the collection and protection of Personal Data or permits either Party to Process (or permit the Processing of) Personal Data in a manner which is prohibited by the Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this DPA and the Agreement, this DPA shall prevail solely with respect to the subject matter of this DPA and solely if such conflict or inconsistency originate from the requirements of Article 28 of the GDPR (except where explicitly agreed otherwise in writing, signed on behalf of the Parties). This DPA is not intended to and does not in any way limit or derogate from the Parties (each as Controller) respective obligations and liabilities under the Agreement, and/or pursuant to the GDPR or any law applicable to Controller, in connection with the collection, handling and use of Personal Data.
