16.5       Each party acknowledges that its breach of this Section may cause irreparable injury to the other party for which monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy.

With regard to such processing, Customer is the controller of the personal data and Cirium are the processor of the personal data. This DPA does not apply where Cirium are a controller of personal data.

2       Processing

2.1. Cirium shall not engage another processor without Customer’s prior specific or general written authorisation. In the case of general written authorisation, Cirium shall inform Customer of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of other processors, thereby giving Customer the opportunity to object to such changes in the manner more specifically set forth herein.

2.2. Cirium’s processing shall be governed by this DPA under Union or governing Member State law as set forth in these Terms. In particular, Cirium shall:

a) process the personal data only on Customer’s documented instructions, including with regard to transfers of personal data to a third country or an international organisation, unless required to do so by the Union or Member State law governing such personal data. In such a case, Cirium shall inform Customer of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest;

b) ensure that persons authorised to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;

c) take all measures required pursuant to Article 32(Security of Processing) of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR");

d) respect the conditions referred to in paragraphs 2.1 and 2.3 for engaging another processor;

e) taking into account the nature of the processing, assist Customer by appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of Customer’s obligation to respond to requests for exercising the data subject’s rights laid down in Chapter III of the GDPR;

f) assist Customer in ensuring compliance with the obligations pursuant to Articles 32 to 36 of the GDPR taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to Cirium;

g) at Customer’s choice and/or on expiry or termination of these Terms, delete or return to Customer all the personal data after the end of the provision of Cirium Products relating to processing and delete existing copies unless Union or Member State or other applicable law requires storage of the personal data (which for the avoidance of doubt, does not apply to aggregated or anonymized data);

h) make available to Customer all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations laid down in Article 28 of the GDPR and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by Customer or another auditor at the Customer's mandate;

i) immediately inform Customer if, in Cirium’s opinion, an instruction from Customer to Cirium infringes the GDPR or other Union or Member State data protection provisions.

2.3. Where Cirium engages another processor for carrying out specific processing activities on Customer’s behalf, the same data protection obligations as set out in this DPA shall be imposed on that other processor by way of a contract or other legal act under Union or Member State law, in particular providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that the processing will meet the requirements of the GDPR. Where that other processor fails to fulfil those data protection obligations, Cirium shall (subject to the terms of these Terms) remain fully liable to Customer for the performance of that other processor’s obligations.

2.4. The subject-matter of Cirium’s processing is the personal data provided related to Cirium Products and Services and Licensed Materials under these Terms. The duration of the processing is the duration of the provision of the Cirium Products and Services and Licensed Materials under these Terms.

Without prejudice to any applicable refund or termination rights Customer have under these Terms, Cirium shall use reasonable endeavours to change, modify or remove the affected Cirium Products and Services or Licensed Materials to avoid processing of personal data by such new processor to which Customer reasonably object.

4       Data Subject Rights

4.1.

6       Security Of Processing

6.1. Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the parties shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including inter alia as appropriate:

16.5       Each party acknowledges that its breach of this Clause may cause irreparable injury to the other party for which monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy.

2.2. Cirium’s processing shall be governed by this DPA under Union or governing Member State law as set forth in these Terms. In particular, Cirium shall:

a) process the personal data only on Customer’s documented instructions, including with regard to transfers of personal data to a third country or an international organisation, unless required to do so by the Union or Member State law governing such personal data. In such a case, Cirium shall inform Customer of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest;

b) ensure that persons authorised to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;

c) take all measures required pursuant to Article 32(Security of Processing) of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR");

d) respect the conditions referred to in paragraphs 2.1 and 2.3 for engaging another processor;

e) taking into account the nature of the processing, assist Customer by appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of Customer’s obligation to respond to requests for exercising the data subject’s rights laid down in Chapter III of the GDPR;

f) assist Customer in ensuring compliance with the obligations pursuant to Articles 32 to 36 of the GDPR taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to Cirium;

g) at Customer’s choice and/or on expiry or termination of these Terms, delete or return to Customer all the personal data after the end of the provision of Cirium Products relating to processing and delete existing copies unless Union or Member State or other applicable law requires storage of the personal data (which for the avoidance of doubt, does not apply to aggregated or anonymized data);

i) immediately inform Customer if, in Cirium’s opinion, an instruction from Customer to Cirium infringes the GDPR or other Union or Member State data protection provisions.

2.3.

Where that other processor fails to fulfil those data protection obligations, Cirium shall (subject to the terms of these Terms) remain fully liable to Customer for the performance of that other processor’s obligations.

2.4. The subject-matter of Cirium’s processing is the personal data provided related to Cirium Products and Services and Licensed Materials under these Terms.

16.5       Each party acknowledges that its breach of this Section may cause irreparable injury to the other party for which monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy.
