The parties acknowledge and agree that with regard to the Processing of Personal Data, Customer is the Controller, Fibery is the Processor and that Fibery or its Affiliates will engage Sub-Processors pursuant to the requirements set forth in Section 4 below. List of sub-processors is provided in Exhibit B.

2.1.1.Authorization by Third Party Controller.

If the European Data Protection Legislation applies to the processing of Customer Personal Data and Customer is a processor, Customer warrants to Fibery that Customer’s instructions and actions with respect to that Customer Personal Data, including its appointment of Fibery as another processor, have been authorized by the relevant Controller.

2.2 Customer’s Processing of Personal Data.

Customer shall, in its use of the Services and provision of instructions, Process Personal Data in accordance with the requirements of applicable Data Protection Law. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer’s instructions for the Processing of Personal Data shall comply with Data Protection Laws. Customer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, and legality of Personal Data, and the means by which Customer acquired Personal Data.

2.3 Fibery Processing of Personal Data.

As the Customer’s Processor, Fibery shall only Process Personal Data for the following purposes:

  1. Processing in accordance with the Agreement;
  2. Processing initiated by Authorized Users in their use of the Services; and
  3. Processing to comply with other reasonable instructions provided by Customer (e.g., via email or support tickets) that are consistent with the terms of the Agreement (individually and collectively, the “Purpose”). Fibery acts on behalf of and on the instructions of the Customer in carrying out the Purpose.

2.4 Details of the Processing.

The subject-matter of Processing of Personal Data by Fibery is as described in the Purpose in Section 2.3. 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 Exhibit A (Description of Processing Activities) to this DPA.

2.5 Duration of Data Processing Amendment.

This Data Processing Amendment will take effect on the Amendment Effective Date and, notwithstanding expiry of the Term, remain in effect until, and automatically expire upon, deletion of all Customer Data by Fibery as described in this Data Processing Amendment.

3. Rights of Data Subjects

3.1 Data Subject Requests.

Fibery shall, to the extent legally permitted, promptly notify Customer if Fibery receives any requests from a Data Subject to exercise the following Data Subject rights in relation to Personal Data: access, rectification, restriction of Processing, erasure (“right to be forgotten”), data portability, objection to the Processing, or to not be subject to an automated individual decision making (each, a “Data Subject Request”). Taking into account the nature of the Processing, Fibery shall assist Customer by appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of Customer’s obligation to respond to a Data Subject Request under applicable Data Protection Laws. In addition, to the extent the Customer, in its use of the Services, does not have the ability to address a Data Subject Request, Fibery shall, upon Customer’s request, provide commercially reasonable efforts to assist Customer in responding to such a Data Subject Request, to the extent Fibery is legally permitted to do so and the response to such Data Subject Request is required under applicable Data Protection Laws. To the extent legally permitted, Customer shall be responsible for any costs arising from Fibery provision of such assistance, including any fees associated with the provision of additional functionality.

Fibery will, in a manner consistent with the functionality of the Service or per request, enable Customer to access, rectify, and restrict processing of Customer Personal Data.

With respect to the Personal Data under this DPA, Fibery warrants that it will:

  1. only process Personal Data in order to provide the Service, and shall only act in accordance with: (i) this DPA, (ii) the Customer's written instructions as represented by the Main Agreement and this DPA, and (iii) as required by applicable laws;
  2. upon becoming aware, inform the Customer if, in Fibery’ opinion, any instructions provided by the Customer infringe Data Protection Laws or GDPR. In this case, Fibery shall have the right to refuse to execute the infringing instruction.

4. Sub-Processors

4.1 Appointment of Sub-processors.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that:

  1. Fibery Affiliates may be retained as Sub-processors through written agreement with Fibery.
  2. Fibery and Fibery Affiliates respectively may engage third-party Sub-Processors in connection with the provision of the Services. As a condition to permitting a third-party Sub-processor to Process Personal Data, Fibery or a Fibery Affiliate will enter into a written agreement with each Sub-processor containing data protection obligations that provide at least the same level of protection for Personal Data as those in this DPA, to the extent applicable to the nature of the Services provided by such Sub-Processor. In either case, Customer agrees to enter into the Model Contractual Clauses where necessary acknowledges that Sub-processors may be appointed by Fibery in accordance with Clause 11 of Model Contractual Clauses.

4.2 List of Current Sub-processors and Notification of New Sub-processors.

A current list of Sub-processors for the Services, including the identities of those Sub-processors and their country of location, is accessible in Exhibit B and will be available in online version of this DPA via https://fibery.io/data-processing (“Sub-Processor List”). Customers with signed DPA will receive notifications of new

Sub-processors before authorizing such new Sub-Processor(s) to Process Personal Data in connection with the provision of the applicable Services.

4.3 Objection Right for New Sub-Processors.

Customer may reasonably object to Fibery using a new Sub-processor (e.g., if making Personal Data available to the Sub-processor may violate applicable Data Protection Law or weaken the protections for such Personal Data) by notifying Fibery promptly in writing within ten (10) business days after receipt of Fibery notice in accordance with the mechanism set out in Section 4.2. Such notice shall explain the reasonable grounds for the objection. In the event Customer objects to a new Sub-processor, as permitted in the preceding sentence, Fibery will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Customer a change in the Service or recommend a commercially reasonable change to Customer’s configuration or use of the Services to avoid Processing of Personal Data by the objected new

Sub-processor without unreasonably burdening Customer. If Fibery is unable to make available such change within a reasonable period of time, which shall not exceed thirty (30) days, either party may terminate without penalty the applicable Service which cannot be provided by Fibery without the use of the objected new

Customer any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of Service following the effective date of termination, without imposing a penalty for such termination on the Customer.

4.4 Liability.

Fibery shall be liable for the acts and omissions of its Sub-Processors to the same extent Fibery would be liable if performing the Services of each Sub-Processor directly under the terms of this DPA.

5. Data Protection Impact Assessment

Upon Customer request, Fibery shall provide Customer with reasonable cooperation and assistance needed to fulfill Customer obligation under the GDPR to carry out a data protection impact assessment related to Customer use of the Service, to the extent Customer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information, and to the extent such information is available to Fibery. Fibery shall provide reasonable assistance to Customer in the cooperation or prior consultation with the Supervisory Authority, to the extent required under the GDPR. Customer shall cover all costs incurred by Fibery in connection with its provision of such assistance.

6. Data Deletion and Return.

6.1 Deletion on Service Expiry.

Subject to Section 6.2 (Deferred Deletion), on expiry of the applicable Service, Customer instructs Fibery to delete all Customer Data (including existing copies) from Fibery systems in accordance with applicable law. Fibery will comply with this instruction as soon as reasonably practicable and within a maximum period of 180 days, unless EU or EU Member State law requires storage of this Customer Data.

Without prejudice to Section 9.1 (Access; Rectification; Restricted Processing; Portability), Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer will be responsible for exporting, before the applicable Service expires, any Customer Data it wishes to retain afterwards.

6.2 Deferred Deletion.

To the extent any Customer Data covered by the deletion instruction described in Section 6.1 (Deletion on Service Expiry) is also processed, when the applicable Service under Section 6.1 expires, in relation to an Agreement with a continuing Service, such a deletion instruction will only take effect with respect to such Customer Data when the continuing Service expires. For clarity, this Data Processing Amendment will continue to apply to such Customer Data until its deletion by Fibery.

Return of the Customer Data U pon expiration of the Term as well as during the Term of the Services Agreement, Fibery will provide Customer with access to export Customer Personal data from the Service.

7. Data Transfers

7.1 Data Storage and Processing Facilities.

Customer agrees that Fibery may, subject to Section 7.2 (Transfer Mechanisms), store and process Personal Data in the United States and any other country in which Fibery or any of its Sub-Processors maintains facilities.

  1. Fibery obligations. If the storage and/or processing of Customer Personal Data involves transfers of Customer Personal Data out of the EEA and the European Data Protection Legislation applies to the transfers of such data, Fibery will ensure that Fibery as the data importer of the Transferred Personal Data enters into Model Contract Clauses with Customer as the data exporter of such data, and that the transfers are made in accordance with such Model Contract Clauses
  2. Customer Obligations. In respect of Customer Personal Data, Customer agrees that if under the European Data Protection Legislation, Fibery reasonably requires the Customer to enter into Model Contract Clauses in respect of such transfers, then the Customer will do so.

7.2 Transfer Mechanisms.

For transfers of Personal Data under this DPA from the European Union, the European Economic Area and/or their member states and Switzerland to countries which do not ensure an adequate level of data protection within the meaning of applicable Data Protection Laws of the foregoing territories, to the extent such transfers are subject to such applicable Data Protection Laws:

  • The Standard Contractual Clauses provided as a separate document apply.

8. Personal Data Breach

8.1 Notification of Data Breach.

Fibery shall, to the extent permitted by law, notify Customer without undue delay upon Fibery or any Sub-Processor becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data, providing Customer with sufficient

information, to allow the Customer to meet any obligations to report or inform Data Subjects of the Personal Data Breach under the Data Protection Laws.

8.2 Assistance to Client.

Fibery shall cooperate with the Customer and take reasonable commercial steps to assist in the investigation, mitigation and remediation of each such Personal Data Breach.

9. Security

9.1 Controls for the Protection of Customer Data

Fibery shall maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures for protection of the security (including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing and against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration or damage, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Customer Data), confidentiality, and integrity of Customer Data, as set forth in the Security, Privacy and Architecture Documentation.

Fibery regularly monitors compliance with these measures and will provide the Customer with supporting documentation, such as audit information, where applicable.
