3.2.    Supplier shall only process Data on the written instructions of Insight and only to the extent, and in such manner, as is necessary for the supply of Services, unless the Supplier is otherwise obligated by Data Protection Legislation to process Data. Where the Supplier is so otherwise required, it shall promptly notify Insight in writing of this before performing the required processing unless otherwise prohibited.

3.3.    In no event shall Supplier process Data for its own purposes or those of any third party.

4.    Obligations of Supplier

4.1.    Supplier shall:

a)      process Data specifically for the performance of the Services; and shall not retain, use, or disclose such Personal Information for any purpose other than performing the Services under the Supply Agreement or as otherwise permitted under applicable Data Protection Legislation (including US State Comprehensive Privacy Laws), nor shall it retain, use, or disclose the Personal Information for a commercial or business purpose other than providing the Services as part of the direct business relationship between Insight and Supplier and unless otherwise permitted under the Supply Agreement;

5.    Security measures

5.1.    Supplier shall have in place all appropriate technical and organisational measures (“TOMs”), including without limitation to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of Data and against accidental loss or destruction of, unauthorized disclosure of, or access or damage to, the Data and against any cybersecurity incidents. Without limiting the foregoing, Supplier shall have taken and shall at all times maintain the TOMs contained in Schedule 2 to this Agreement.

5.2.    TOMs must include as appropriate pseudonymising and encrypting the Data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of its systems and services, ensuring that availability of and access to Data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the TOMs adopted by Supplier. TOMs must also include appropriate cybersecurity measures, including with regard to the security of the Services. Supplier shall not make any material changes to security requirements, location of servers and functionality without prior written consent of Insight. 

6.    Sub-processors

6.1.    Insight generally authorises Supplier (a) to appoint third parties to process Data (“Sub-processor(s)”) and (b) to transfer the Data to such Sub-processors as necessary for the performance of the Services, to the extent such Sub-processors are explicitly identified in the relevant Supply Agreement, together with a description of the services provided by them, and the duration and location of processing.

Insight may object in writing to Supplier’s appointment of a new Sub-processor within twenty (20) calendar days of such notice. In such event, the Parties will discuss such concerns in good faith with a view to achieving resolution. If the Parties are not able to achieve resolution, Insight may terminate for convenience and without liability the specific Services supplied pursuant to the Supply Agreement that rely upon and cannot reasonably be provided in accordance with the Supply Agreement without the appointment of the new Sub-processor.

7.1.    Supplier shall not transfer any Data (protected by the GDPR, UK GDPR or Swiss DPA) outside of the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland unless the prior written consent of Insight has been given and the Supplier has taken such measures such that the transfer and resulting processing is subject to a compliant transfer mechanism where one is required by Data Protection Legislation.

7.2.    If any Data (protected by the GDPR, UK GDPR or Swiss DPA) is transferred to any third party located in a country outside the EEA, the UK and/or Switzerland that the applicable authorities have not recognized as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data, then the Standard Contractual Clauses shall apply, or other alternative transfer mechanism (e.g., Binding Corporate Rules) permitted by Data Protection Legislation.  To the extent that Insight within region is transferring Data directly to Supplier outside of the EEA, the UK or Switzerland and (where required) pursuant to the Data Protection Legislation, which direct transfer is reflected in, or reasonably follows from the (territorial) scope and purpose of the relevant Services agreement and/or as further detailed in (the manner of placing) Supply Agreement, Insight is considered a data controller and data exporter and Supplier is considered a data processor and data importer. Schedule 1 shall be used to document the subject-matter, nature and purpose of the data processing in respect of any such exports of Data, which may be further specified or superseded in a specific Supply Agreement.

7.3.    In relation to transfers of Data protected by the GDPR, the EU SCCs shall apply, completed as follows:

7.3.8.     Annex II of the EU SCCs shall be deemed completed with the information set out in Schedule 2 to this Agreement.

7.4.    In relation to transfers of Data protected by the UK GDPR, the UK SCCs shall apply, completed as follows:

7.4.1.     In Table 1 of the UK SCCs, the Parties’ details and key contact information is located in Annex 1(A) of Schedule 1 of this Agreement;

7.4.2.     In Table 2 of the UK SCCs, information about the version of the Approved EU SCCs, modules and selected clauses which this UK International Data Transfer Agreement is appended to is located in Section 7.3 of this Agreement;

7.5.    In case of any transfers of Data from the United Kingdom and/or transfers of Data from Switzerland, (a) general and specific references in the EU SCCs to GDPR or EU or member state law shall have the same meaning as the equivalent reference in the Data Protection Legislation of the United Kingdom or Switzerland, as applicable; and (b) any other obligation in the EU SCCs determined by the member state in which the data exporter or data subject is established shall refer to an obligation under the UK GDPR or the Swiss DPA, as applicable. To extent that and for so long as the EU SCCs as implemented in accordance with this Agreement cannot be relied on by the Parties to lawfully transfer Data in compliance with the UK GDPR or the Swiss DPA, as applicable, the applicable standard data protection clauses issued, adopted or permitted under the UK GDPR or the Swiss DPA, as applicable, shall be incorporated by reference, and the annexes, appendices or tables of such clauses shall be deemed populated with the relevant information set out in Schedules 1 and 2 of this Agreement.

8.    Access to Data by a Public Authority

8.1.    Supplier represents and warrants that as of the date of this Agreement, it has not received any directive under Section 702 of the U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, codified at 50 U.S.C. § 1881a or EO 12.333.

Supplier shall pursue possibilities of appeal.

8.4.    When challenging a request, Supplier shall seek interim measures to suspend the effects of the request until the competent judicial authority has decided on its merits.
