b. The parties acknowledge that for the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation, the Affiliate is the data controller and Beaffiliates is the data processor (where Data Controller and Data Processor have the meanings as defined in the Data Protection Legislation).

d. Without prejudice to the generality of clause 12.2a, Beaffiliates shall, in relation to any Personal Data processed in connection with the performance by Beaffiliates of its obligations under this agreement:

(a) process that Personal Data only on the written instructions of the Affiliate unless Beaffiliates is required by the laws of any regulatory authority and member of the European Union or by the laws of the European Union applicable to Beaffiliates to process Personal Data (Applicable Laws). Where Beaffiliates is relying on laws of a member of the European Union or European Union law as the basis for processing Personal Data, Beaffiliates shall promptly notify the Affiliate of this before performing the processing required by the Applicable Laws unless those Applicable Laws prohibit Beaffiliates from so notifying the Affiliate;

(b) ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of Personal Data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, Personal Data, appropriate to the harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected, having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures (those measures may include, where appropriate, pseudonymising and encrypting Personal Data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of its systems and services, ensuring that availability of and access to Personal Data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the technical and organisational measures adopted by it);

(c) ensure that all personnel who have access to and/or process Personal Data are obliged to keep the Personal Data confidential; and

(d) not transfer any Personal Data outside of the European Economic Area unless the prior written consent of the Affiliate has been obtained and the following conditions are fulfilled:

(ii) the data subject has enforceable rights and effective legal remedies;
(iii) Beaffiliates complies with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation by providing an adequate level of protection to any Personal Data that is transferred; and
(iv) Beaffiliates complies with reasonable instructions notified to it in advance by the Affiliate with respect to the processing of the Personal Data;

(e) assist the Affiliate, at the Affiliate’s cost, in responding to any request from a Data Subject and in ensuring compliance with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation with respect to security, breach notifications, impact assessments and consultations with supervisory authorities or regulators;

(f) notify the Affiliate without undue delay on becoming aware of a Personal Data breach;

(h) maintain complete and accurate records and information to demonstrate its compliance with this clause.

e. The Affiliate consents to Beaffiliates appointing a third-party processor of Personal Data under this agreement. Beaffiliates confirms that it has entered or (as the case may be) will enter with the third-party processor into a written agreement incorporating terms which are substantially similar to those set out in this clause. As between the Affiliate and Beaffiliates, Beaffiliates shall remain fully liable for all acts or omissions of any third-party processor appointed by it pursuant to this clause.

f. Either party may, at any time on not less than 30 days’ notice, revise this clause by replacing it with any applicable controller to processor standard clauses or similar terms forming party of an applicable certification scheme (which shall apply when replaced by attachment to this agreement).

g. You undertake to include on your and or your affiliate’s websites, a data processing consent form, a privacy policy that discloses that third parties may place anonymous cookies on the browsers of visitors to its websites and may send their own cookies to the visitors’ cookie file.
