If Customer is established in the EEA and Boostr’s processing of Personal Data involves transfers of Personal Data out of the EEA to Boostr in a country not deemed by the European Commission to have adequate data protection, and the European Data Protection Legislation applies to such transfer, such transfer will be governed by the Standard Contractual Clauses. For the purposes of the Standard Contractual Clauses, Customer and Boostr agree that (a) Customer will act as the data exporter on its own behalf and on behalf of any of its Affiliates established in the EEA which are parties to the Agreement and (b) Boostr will act as the data importer.
    2. Standard Contractual Clauses Administration. The parties agree that (a) upon data exporter’s request under the Standard Contractual Clauses, data importer will provide the copies of the Subprocessor agreements that must be sent by the data importer to the data exporter pursuant to Clause 5(j) of the Standard Contract Clauses, and that data importer may remove or redact all commercial information or clauses unrelated the Standard Contractual Clauses or their equivalent beforehand; (b) the audits described in Clause 5(f) and Clause 12(2) of the Standard Contract Clauses shall be performed in accordance with Section 5.4 of this Addendum; (c) Customer’s authorizations in Section 1 will constitute Customer’s prior written consent to the subcontracting by Boostr of the processing of Personal Data if such consent is required under Clause 5(h) of the Standard Contractual Clauses; and (d) certification of deletion of Personal Data as described in Clause 12(1) of the Standard Contractual Clauses shall be provided only upon Customer’s request.
    3. Customer’s Transfer Obligations. Customer agrees that Boostr may elect in its own discretion to use a Transfer Solution other than the Standard Contractual Clauses and that upon receipt of written notice of such election and the effectiveness of such other Transfer Solution, the Standard Contractual Clauses entered pursuant to Section 2.1 shall automatically terminate and become void. Customer will take such action (which may include execution of documents) reasonably required by Boostr to give full effect to such other Transfer Solution.
9. Subprocessors
  1. Consent to Subprocessor Engagement. Customer specifically authorizes the engagement of Boostr’s Affiliates as Subprocessors. In addition, Customer generally authorizes the engagement of any other third parties as Subprocessors (“Third Party Subprocessors”).
  2. Information about Subprocessors. Information about Subprocessors, including their functions and locations, is available at www.boostr.com/dataprotection as may be updated by Boostr from time to time in accordance with this Addendum).
  3. Requirements for Subprocessor Engagement. When engaging any Subprocessor, Boostr will enter into a written contract with such Subprocessor containing data protection obligations not less protective than those in this Addendum with respect to Personal Data to the extent applicable to the nature of the services provided by such Subprocessor. Boostr shall be liable for all obligations subcontracted to, and all acts and omissions of, the Subprocessor.
  4. Opportunity to Object to Subprocessor Changes.

When any new Third Party Subprocessor is engaged during the Term, Boostr will notify Customer of the engagement (including the name and location of the relevant Subprocessor and the activities it will perform) by updating the website listed in Section 9.2. If Customer objects to such engagement in a written notice to Boostr within 15 days of being informed thereof on reasonable grounds relating to the protection of Personal Data, Customer and Boostr will work together in good faith to find a mutually acceptable resolution to address such objection. If the parties are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution within a reasonable timeframe, Customer may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate the Agreement by providing written notice to Boostr.

10. Notices

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, any notices required or permitted to be given by Boostr to Customer in connection with this Addendum may be given (a) in accordance with the notice clause of the Agreement; (b) in writing (including email) to Boostr’s primary points of contact with Customer; and/or (c) to any email address provided by Customer for the purpose of providing it with Service-related communications or alerts. Customer is solely responsible for ensuring that such email addresses are valid.

9. Governing Law

The Clauses shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

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.

11. Subprocessing
  • 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 sub processor which imposes the same obligations on the sub processor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the sub processor fails to fulfill its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the sub processor's obligations under such agreement.
  • The prior written contract between the data importer and the sub processor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in Clause 6.1 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the sub processor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

The parties agree that on the termination of the provision of data processing services, the data importer and the subprocessor shall, at the choice of the data exporter, return all the personal data transferred and the copies thereof to the data exporter or shall destroy all the personal data and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, unless legislation imposed upon the data importer prevents it from returning or destroying all or part of the personal data transferred. In that case, the data importer warrants that it will guarantee the confidentiality of the personal data transferred and will not actively process the personal data transferred anymore.
  2. The data importer and the sub processor warrant that upon request of the data exporter and/or of the supervisory authority, it will submit its data processing facilities for an audit of the measures referred to in Clause 12.1.
