Data Processing Addendum (DPA)

  1. BACKGROUND AND SCOPE

    1. This Data Processing Addendum (this “DPA”) constitutes an agreement between a controller and a processor as required by the GDPR (as defined below) and consists of this main document and the Specification (as defined below). Where applicable and subject to Section 6, standard contractual clauses adopted by the EU Commission from time to time shall be deemed incorporated into this DPA by reference. This DPA and the Terms of Service jointly form the Agreement.
    2. Phygrid will, as part of the Service, process Covered Personal Data (as defined below) on behalf of Customer and thus be Customer’s processor.
    3. If Covered Personal Data includes personal data for which a third party is the data controller, Customer warrants and represents that it has been instructed by and obtained the mandate and authorization of all relevant data controllers to enter into this DPA with Phygrid on behalf of such third party data controller.
    4. For the avoidance of doubt, Personal Data collected and processed by Phygrid as the data controller is not subject to this DPA. Please see Phygrid’s Privacy Policy for further information.
  2. INTERPRETATION AND DEFINITIONS

    1. This DPA constitutes an addendum and an integrated part of the Agreement. In the event of inconsistencies between any section in other Agreement documents and this DPA in regards to Phygrid’s processing of Covered Personal Data, this DPA shall prevail and apply in lieu of such inconsistent section in other Agreement documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, standard contractual clauses shall (if incorporated) have the highest priority in the event of any conflict or inconsistency with this DPA or other parts of the Agreement.
    2. Terms that are legally defined in the GDPR, such as ”controller”, ”processor”, ”personal data”, ”processing” and ”data subject”, shall be construed and applied in accordance with the GDPR.
    3. Terms defined in the Terms of Service shall have the same meaning when used in this DPA with an initial capital letter.
    4. In addition to the preceding Section sand to the terms defined above, the following terms shall have the meanings stated below:
Term Definition

"Covered Personal Data" Personal data that is processed by Phygrid on behalf of Customer, see the Specification.
"Specification" Means Annex A to this main document.

  1. LAWFUL PROCESSING

    1. Phygrid undertakes to process Covered Personal Data in accordance with the GDPR, this DPA, the Agreement and Customer’s written and documented instructions from time to time in accordance with Section 4.
  2. INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Phygrid and any Subprocessors and persons acting under the authority of Phygrid may only process Covered Personal Data in accordance with Customer’s written and documented instructions. Customer’s instructions upon entering into this DPA follow from this DPA and the Agreement.
    2. If the Customer has engaged an Approved Partner who is a Certified Solution Provider (as described in the Agreement), then Customer hereby instructs Phygrid to disclose and make available relevant Covered Personal Data to the Approved Partner to enable such Approved Partner to be able to provide application development and/or support services and other value-adds to the Customer. Following disclosure of Covered Personal Data by Phygrid to an Approved Partner in accordance with this Section 4.2, the relevant personal data will subsequently be processed by the Approved Partner as a data controller (unless otherwise agreed between the Customer and the Approved Partner).
    3. The Customer has the right to continuously instruct Phygrid in writing regarding the processing of Covered Personal Data (”Additional Instructions”), and Phygrid has a corresponding obligation to follow such Additional Instructions, provided that they are consistent with the terms and scope of the Agreement and this DPA.
    4. If Phygrid believes that Customer’s instructions, in the opinion of Phygrid, might infringe the GDPR, Phygrid shall without undue delay notify Customer and await further instructions before continuing any processing of Covered Personal Data.
    5. This DPA will not in any way prevent or limit Phygrid from processing Personal Data to the extent necessary in order to comply with legal requirements under the GDPR and/or other laws to which Phygrid is subject.
    6. Notwithstanding any provisions regarding choice of law agreed between the parties in the Agreement, Phygrid will comply with data protection legislation applicable to data processors located in the EU, and the Customer shall comply with data protection legislation applicable to Customer as data controller.
  3. TECHNICAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL MEASURES

    1. Phygrid shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the processing of Covered Personal Data. The Customer agrees and acknowledges that technical and organizational measures are subject to technical progress and further development. Accordingly, Phygrid reserves the right to modify such measures provided that the functionality and security of the Service is not significantly degraded as a result of thereof. The Customer hereby discharges Phygrid of any obligation to notify and/or obtain prior approval from Customer of such changes. If the Customer so requests in writing, Phygrid shall provide information about the technical and organizational security measures which Phygrid has implemented, within fifteen (15) business days from Customer’s request.
    2. Phygrid shall ensure that only personnel that needs access to Covered Personal Data in order to fulfil their obligations towards Customer have access to Covered Personal Data and that any person who has access to Covered Personal Data is subject to appropriate confidentiality undertakings, as determined by Phygrid (in its reasonable discretion).
    3. Phygrid shall, at no additional cost for Customer, comply with the Supervisory Authority’s applicable decisions, guidelines and recommendations on necessary or recommended measures to comply with the security requirements in the GDPR.
  4. TRANSFER OF COVERED PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE THE EU/EEA

    1. Customer agrees that Phygrid or any of its Subprocessors may process Covered Personal Data on equipment, infrastructure or through resources that are physically located outside the EU/EEA, for the performance of Phygrid’s undertakings under the Agreement and provided that Phygrid ensures a valid Transfer Mechanism.
    2. A valid “Transfer Mechanism” is any of the following:
      • the third country in which the data recipient resides provides an adequate level of protection for Covered Personal Data, according to a valid adequacy decision by the EU Commission; or
      • Phygrid and the data recipient enter into standard contractual clauses adopted by the EU Commission from time to time and Customer hereby authorizes and mandates Phygrid to enter into such standard contractual clauses on behalf of the Customer (if required); or
      • the cross-border transfer is otherwise made in accordance with Chapter V of the GDPR.
    3. Regardless of Phygrid’s choice of Transfer Mechanism, Phygrid shall take appropriate safeguards to ensure a level of protection for Covered Personal Data which is essentially equivalent to that of the GDPR.
    4. If during the term of the DPA, the EU Commission issues new or revised standard contractual clauses, such updated clauses shall automatically be incorporated and supersede the prior standard contractual clauses under this DPA, unless otherwise notified to Customer in writing by Phygrid. Where deemed necessary by Phygrid, the Parties shall at their own cost take necessary actions (if any) to properly implement the updated standard contractual clauses.
  5. OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE INFORMATION AND ASSIST CUSTOMER

If a personal data breach is attributable to the Customer, Phygrid shall only be responsible for notifying Customer about the personal data breach and await written instructions from Customer about whether or not Customer wishes Phygrid to investigate the personal data breach on behalf of Customer (at Customer’s sole cost).

    6. Phygrid shall otherwise, upon Customer’s request, assist Customer to ensure that Customer can fulfil its obligations under the GDPR, including but not limited to providing Customer with all information that may reasonably be required to demonstrate Phygrid’s compliance with its obligations as a processor set out in the GDPR.
