This Data Processing Addendum (including all Schedules attached hereto, the "DPA") is incorporated into, and is subject to the terms and conditions of, the DistroMagic Terms of Service located at https://distromagic.io/terms ("Agreement") between DistroMagic Technologies, Inc. ("DistroMagic") and the entity identified as the customer in the Agreement ("Customer"). This DPA applies to the extent DistroMagic's Processing of Customer Personal Data is subject to the Data Protection Laws. This DPA shall be effective for the term of the Agreement.
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the Agreement.
Customer is a Controller of Customer Personal Data and DistroMagic is a Processor of Customer Personal Data. The details of DistroMagic's Processing of Customer Personal Data are described in Schedule 1.
DistroMagic will only Process Customer Personal Data as a Processor on behalf of and in accordance with Customer's prior written instructions, including any instructions provided through Customer's use of the DistroMagic Platform. Customer hereby instructs DistroMagic to Process Customer Personal Data to the extent necessary to provide the Service as set forth in the Agreement and this DPA. DistroMagic shall not (1) retain, use, or disclose Customer Personal Data other than as provided for in the Agreement, as needed to provide the Service, or as otherwise permitted by Data Protection Laws; (2) retain, use, or disclose Customer Personal Data outside of the direct business relationship between Customer and DistroMagic, including by combining Customer Personal Data with Personal Data DistroMagic receives from third parties, other than Customer, except as permitted by the Data Protection Laws; or (3) Sell or Share Customer Personal Data. Upon notice to DistroMagic, Customer may take reasonable and appropriate steps to remediate DistroMagic's use of Customer Personal Data in violation of this DPA.
DistroMagic will immediately inform Customer if, in its opinion, an instruction from Customer infringes the Data Protection Laws. If applicable laws preclude DistroMagic from complying with Customer's instructions, DistroMagic will inform Customer of its inability to comply with the instructions, to the extent permitted by law.
Each of Customer and DistroMagic will comply with their respective obligations under the Data Protection Laws. DistroMagic shall notify Customer if it determines that it cannot meet its obligations under the Data Protection Laws. Customer has the right to take reasonable steps to ensure that DistroMagic uses Customer Personal Data in a manner consistent with Customer's obligations under Data Protection Laws by exercising Customer's audit rights in Section 10.
With respect to Customer Personal Data originating from the European Economic Area ("EEA"), the United Kingdom (the "UK") or Switzerland that is transferred from Customer to DistroMagic, the parties agree to comply with the general clauses and with "Module Two" (Controller to Processor) of the EU SCCs, which are incorporated herein by reference, with Customer as the "data exporter" and DistroMagic as the "data importer."
For purposes of the EU SCCs the parties agree that:
If the transfer of Customer Personal Data is subject to the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection ("FADP"), the parties agree to rely on the EU SCCs with the following modifications: (i) the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) will be the competent supervisory authority under Clause 13 of the EU SCCs; (ii) the parties agree to abide by the GDPR standard in relation to all Processing of Customer Personal Data that is governed by the FADP; (iii) the term "Member State" in the EU SCCs will not prevent Data Subjects who habitually reside in Switzerland from initiating legal proceedings in Switzerland in accordance with Clause 18(c) of the EU SCCs; and (iv) references to the "GDPR" in the EU SCCs will be understood as references to the FADP.
With respect to transfers from Customer to DistroMagic of Customer Personal Data originating from the UK, the parties agree that the UK Addendum will complement the EU SCCs to the extent required under Data Protection Law. The UK Addendum is incorporated herein by reference. The parties agree that the UK Addendum is completed as follows:
For the purpose of Part 1 of the UK Addendum:
DistroMagic will require DistroMagic's personnel who access Customer Personal Data to commit to protect the confidentiality of Customer Personal Data.
DistroMagic will implement commercially reasonable technical and organisational measures, as further described in Schedule 2, that are designed to protect against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to Customer Personal Data.
To the extent required by Data Protection Laws, DistroMagic will provide Customer with reasonable assistance as necessary for the fulfilment of Customer's obligations under Data Protection Laws to maintain the security of Customer Personal Data.
Customer agrees that DistroMagic may engage Sub-Processors to Process Customer Personal Data on Customer's behalf. DistroMagic's current list of Sub-Processors is available at the Sub-Processor List. Customer may sign up to receive notice of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of Sub-Processors on the Sub-Processor List by completing the form at https://distromagic.io/sub-processors (the "Notice Form"). Customer acknowledges that DistroMagic satisfies its obligation to inform Customer of changes to the Sub-Processor List by updating the Sub-Processor List and sending a notice to all email addresses added to the Notice Form (the "Notice"). DistroMagic will send the Notice at least 15 days prior to permitting the Sub-Processor to access Customer Personal Data. Customer may object to changes to the Sub-Processor List within seven days of receiving the Notice. If DistroMagic and Customer are unable to resolve such objection, DistroMagic or Customer may terminate the Agreement by providing written notice to the other party. Any termination pursuant to this Section 5.1 will not affect Customer's obligation to pay fees incurred prior to the termination.
DistroMagic will impose on its Sub-Processors substantially the same data protection obligations that apply to DistroMagic under this DPA. DistroMagic will be liable to Customer for its Sub-Processors' acts or omissions as it would be for its own.
The parties agree that the copies of the Sub-Processor agreements that must be provided by DistroMagic to Customer pursuant to the SCCs, if applicable, may have commercial information or clauses unrelated to the SCCs removed by DistroMagic beforehand; and, that such copies will be provided by DistroMagic, in a manner to be determined in its discretion, only upon Customer's written request.
Customer is responsible for responding to any Data Subject requests relating to Customer Personal Data ("Requests"). If DistroMagic receives any Requests during the term, DistroMagic will advise the Data Subject to submit the request directly to Customer. DistroMagic will provide Customer with self-service functionality or other reasonable assistance to permit Customer to respond to Requests.
Upon becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data, DistroMagic will (i) promptly take measures designed to remediate the Personal Data Breach and (ii) notify Customer without undue delay. Customer is solely responsible for complying with Personal Data Breach notification requirements applicable to Customer. Customer may request that DistroMagic reasonably assist Customer's efforts to notify Personal Data Breaches to the competent data protection authorities and/or affected Data Subjects, if Customer is required to do so under the Data Protection Laws. DistroMagic's notice of or response to a Personal Data Breach under this Section 7 will not be an acknowledgement or admission by DistroMagic of any fault or liability with respect to the Personal Data Breach.
Customer may request reasonable assistance from DistroMagic in connection with conducting data protection impact assessments and consultation with data protection authorities if Customer is required to engage in such activities under applicable Data Protection Laws and the data protection impact assessment or consultation relate to the Processing by DistroMagic of Customer Personal Data.
Customer instructs DistroMagic to delete Customer Personal Data within 90 days of the termination of the Agreement and delete existing copies unless applicable law requires otherwise. The parties agree that the certification of deletion described in the SCCs, if applicable, shall be provided only upon Customer's written request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, DistroMagic may retain Customer Personal Data to the extent and for the period required by applicable laws provided that DistroMagic maintains the confidentiality of all such Customer Personal Data and Processes such Customer Personal Data only as necessary for the purpose(s) specified in the applicable laws requiring its storage.
Customer may audit DistroMagic's compliance with its obligations under this DPA up to once per year. In addition, Customer may perform more frequent audits (including inspections) in the event: (1) DistroMagic suffers a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data; (2) Customer has genuine, documented concerns regarding DistroMagic's compliance with this DPA or the Data Protection Laws; or (3) where required by the Data Protection Laws, including where mandated by regulatory or governmental authorities with jurisdiction over Customer Personal Data. DistroMagic will contribute to such audits by providing Customer or Customer's regulatory or governmental authority with the information and assistance reasonably necessary to conduct the audit, including any relevant records of Processing activities applicable to the Service, as described below.
To request an audit, Customer must submit a detailed proposed audit plan to support@distromagic.io at least one month in advance of the proposed audit start date. The proposed audit plan must describe the proposed scope, duration, start date of the audit, and the identity of any third party Customer intends to appoint to perform the audit. DistroMagic will review the proposed audit plan and provide Customer with any concerns or questions (for example, DistroMagic may object to the third party auditor as described in Section 10.3, provide an Audit Report as described in Section 10.4, or identify any requests for information that could compromise DistroMagic confidentiality obligations or security, privacy, employment or other relevant policies). The parties will negotiate in good faith to agree on a final audit plan at least two weeks in advance of the proposed audit start date. Nothing in this Section 10 shall require DistroMagic to breach any duties of confidentiality.
DistroMagic may object to third party auditors that are, in DistroMagic's reasonable opinion, not suitably qualified or independent, a competitor of DistroMagic, or otherwise manifestly unsuitable. Customer will appoint another auditor or conduct the audit itself if the parties cannot resolve DistroMagic's auditor objection after negotiating in good faith.
If the requested audit scope is addressed in an SSAE 18/ISAE 3402 Type 2, ISO, NIST or similar audit report performed by a qualified third party auditor on DistroMagic's systems that Process Customer Personal Data ("Audit Reports") within twelve (12) months of Customer's audit request and DistroMagic confirms there are no known material changes in the controls audited, Customer agrees to accept the Audit Report in lieu of requesting an audit of the controls covered by the Audit Report.
The audit must be conducted at a mutually agreeable time during regular business hours at the applicable facility, subject to the agreed final audit plan and DistroMagic's health and safety or other relevant policies. The audit may not unreasonably interfere with DistroMagic business activities.
Any audits are at Customer's expense and Customer will promptly disclose to DistroMagic any perceived non-compliance or security concerns discovered during the audit, together with all relevant details.
The parties agree that the audits described in the SCCs, if applicable, shall be performed in accordance with this Section 10.
Customer acknowledges and agrees that DistroMagic may create and derive from Processing related to the Service anonymized and/or aggregated data that does not identify or relate to Customer or any Data Subject ("Analytics Data"), and use such Analytics Data to improve the Service.
Each party's liability towards the other party under or in connection with this DPA will be limited in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement.
Customer acknowledges that DistroMagic is reliant on Customer for direction as to the extent to which DistroMagic is entitled to Process Customer Personal Data on behalf of Customer in performance of the Service. Consequently, DistroMagic will not be liable under the Agreement for any claim brought by a Data Subject arising from (a) any action or omission by DistroMagic in compliance with Customer's instructions or (b) from Customer's failure to comply with its obligations under the Data Protection Laws.
With regard to the subject matter of this DPA, in the event of inconsistencies between the provisions of this DPA and the Agreement, the provisions of this DPA shall prevail. In the event of inconsistencies between the DPA and the SCCs, the SCCs will prevail.
