Definitions. For purposes of this Annex A, the terms “controller”, “processor” and “supervisory authority” have the meanings given in EU Data Protection Law; “Standard Contractual Clauses” means the Standard Contractual Clauses for Processors as approved by the European Commission under Decision 2010/87/EU in the form made accessible in Customer’s Autopilot’s Workspace; and “data importer” and “data exporter” have the meanings given in the Standard Contractual Clauses.
Subject Matter and Details of Processing. The parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the subject matter of the Processing under the Agreement is Autopilot’s provision of the Services; (b) the duration of the Processing is from Autopilot’s receipt of Customer Personal Data until deletion of all Customer Personal Data by Autopilot in accordance with the Agreement; (c) the nature and purpose of the Processing is to provide the Services; (d) the Data Subjects to whom the Processing pertains are Customer’s customers, end users or other individuals to whom Customer Personal Data pertains; and (e) the categories of Customer Personal Data are such categories as Customer is authorized to ingest into the Services under the Agreement.
Roles and Regulatory Compliance; Authorization. The parties acknowledge and agree that (a) Autopilot is a processor of the Customer Personal Data under EU Data Protection Law; (b) Customer is a controller of the Customer Personal Data under EU Data Protection Law; and (c) each party will comply with the obligations applicable to it in such role under EU Data Protection Law with respect to the Processing of Customer Personal Data. To the extent that any Usage Data (as defined in the Agreement) is considered Personal Data, Autopilot is the controller with respect to such data and shall Process such data in accordance with its Privacy Policy, which can be found in our Privacy Policy.
Autopilot’s Compliance with Instructions. Autopilot will only Process Customer Personal Data in accordance with Customer’s instructions in this Addendum unless EU Data Protection Law requires otherwise, in which case Autopilot will notify Customer (unless that law prohibits Autopilot from doing so).
Autopilot Security Measures, Controls and Assistance
Autopilot will (taking into account the nature of the Processing of Customer Personal Data and the information available to Autopilot) provide Customer with reasonable assistance necessary for Customer to comply with its obligations in respect of Customer Personal Data under EU Data Protection Law, including Articles 32 to 34 (inclusive) of the GDPR, by (a) implementing and maintaining the Security Measures; (b) complying with the terms of Section 7 of this Addendum; and (c) complying with this Annex A.
Autopilot will grant access to Customer Personal Data only to personnel who need such access for the scope of their job duties, and are subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations. Should an employee of a Customer seek to exercise their rights under EU Data Protection Laws (e.g., rights of data access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection) in respect of any Usage Data that constitutes Personal Data then the Customer undertakes to inform Autopilot without delay and instruct their employee to contact Autopilot directly via dpo@autopilotbrand.com or such other email address as directed at the time.
Audits and Reviews of Compliance. To the extent applicable Data Protection Laws include a right for Customer to audit Autopilot’s Processing of Customer Personal Data, Customer will exercise such audit right, and Autopilot will fulfill its corresponding obligations, as follows:
Not more than once per calendar year and at Customer’s expense, Customer may audit Autopilot’s Processing of Customer Personal Data for compliance with its obligations under this Addendum by submitting reasonable requests for information, including security and audit questionnaires. Autopilot will provide written responses to the extent the requested information is necessary to confirm Autopilot’s compliance with this Addendum. However, if the requested information is addressed in a Third Party Report issued within the 12-month period prior to Customer’s request and Autopilot confirms there have been no material changes in the interim relevant to Customer’s request, Customer agrees to accept such Third Party Report in lieu of a written response. Any information provided by Autopilot under this Section 2.b. constitutes Autopilot’s Confidential Information under the Agreement.
If a third party is to conduct an audit under this Section 2.b., Autopilot may object to the auditor if the auditor is, in Autopilot’s reasonable opinion, not independent, a competitor of Autopilot or otherwise unqualified. Such objection by Autopilot will require Customer to appoint another auditor or conduct the audit itself.
Customer will promptly notify Autopilot of any non-compliance discovered during the course of an audit and provide Autopilot any audit reports generated in connection with any audit under this Section 2.b., unless prohibited by EU Data Protection Law or otherwise instructed by a supervisory authority. Customer may use the audit reports only for the purposes of meeting Customer’s regulatory audit requirements and confirming that Autopilot’s Processing of Customer Personal Data complies with this Addendum.
Customer shall reimburse Autopilot for any time expended by Autopilot or its Subprocessors in connection with any audits under this Section 2.b. at Autopilot’s then-current professional services rates, which shall be made available to Customer upon request. Customer will be responsible for any fees charged by any auditor appointed by Customer to execute any such audit. Nothing in this Addendum shall be construed to require Autopilot to furnish more information about its Third Party Subprocessors in connection with such audits than such Third Party Subprocessors make generally available to their customers. Nothing in this Section 2.b. shall require Autopilot to breach any duties of confidentiality.
Autopilot may (taking into account the nature of the Processing and the information available to Autopilot) reasonably assist Customer in complying with Customer’s obligations under Articles 35 and 36 of the GDPR, by (a) making available documentation describing relevant aspects of Autopilot’s information security program and the security measures applied in connection therewith; and (b) providing the other information contained in the Agreement, including this Addendum.
Data Processing Facilities. Autopilot may, subject to Section 4.b., store and Process Customer Personal Data in the United States or anywhere Autopilot or its Subprocessors maintain facilities. Subject to Autopilot’s obligations in this Section 4, Customer is responsible for ensuring that its use of the Services complies with any cross-border data transfer restrictions of EU Data Protection Law.
Privacy Shield. To the extent that Autopilot Processes any Customer Personal Data of individuals in the EU or Switzerland in the United States, then Autopilot shall protect such Customer Personal Data in accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles and Supplemental Principles of the EU-U.S. and Swiss Privacy Shield Frameworks (“Privacy Shield”). If Autopilot is unable to comply with this requirement, Autopilot shall inform Customer.
Standard Contractual Clauses. If Customer is established in the EU and transfers Customer Personal Data out of the EU to Autopilot in a country not deemed by the European Commission to have adequate data protection, and the Privacy Shield ceases to be a basis by which Customer may lawfully make such transfer to Autopilot under Chapter V of the GDPR, and no lawful alternative basis for such transfer applies, such transfer will be governed by the Standard Contractual Clauses, the terms of which are hereby incorporated into this DPA. In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties agree that:
for purposes of the Standard Contractual Clauses, (a) Customer will act as the data exporter and (b) Autopilot will act as the data importer;
for purposes of Appendix 1 to the Standard Contractual Clauses, the Data Subjects, categories of data, and the processing operations shall be as set out in Section 1.b. to this Annex A;
for purposes of Appendix 2 to the Standard Contractual Clauses, the technical and organizational measures shall be the Security Measures;
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 Contractual Clauses, and data importer may remove or redact all commercial information or clauses unrelated to the Standard Contractual Clauses or their equivalent beforehand;
the audits described in Clause 5(f) and Clause 12(2) of the Standard Contractual Clauses shall be performed in accordance with Section 2.b. of this Annex A;
Customer’s authorizations in Section 6 of this Addendum (Subprocessing) will constitute Customer’s prior written consent to the subcontracting by Autopilot of the Processing of Customer Personal Data if such consent is required under Clause 5(h) of the Standard Contractual Clauses;
certification of deletion of Customer Personal Data as described in Clause 12(1) of the Standard Contractual Clauses shall be provided only upon Customer’s request; and
the Standard Contractual Clauses shall automatically terminate once the Customer Personal Data transfer governed thereby becomes lawful under Chapter V of the GDPR in the absence of such Standard Contractual Clauses on any other basis.
