   Customer consents to the processing of Personal Data by Company and its Affiliates, and their respective agents and Subcontractors, as provided in this Agreement.

3. Processing of Personal Data GDPR. To the extent Company is a processor or subprocessor of Personal Data subject to the GDPR, the Standard Contractual Clauses govern that processing and the parties also agree to the following terms in this subsection (“Processing of Personal Data; GDPR”):

   1. Processor and Controller Roles and Responsibilities.

      Customer and Company agree that Customer is the controller of Personal Data and Company is the processor of such data, except when (a) Customer acts as a processor of Personal Data, in which case Company is a subprocessor or (b) stated otherwise in any Product-specific terms. Company will process Personal Data only on documented instructions from Customer. In any instance where the GDPR applies and Customer is a processor, Customer warrants to Company that Customer’s instructions, including appointment of Processor as a processor or subprocessor, have been authorized by the relevant controller.
      
      

   2. Processing Details.

      The parties acknowledge and agree that:
      1. the subject-matter of the processing is limited to Personal Data within the scope of the GDPR;
      2. the duration of the processing will be for the duration of the Customer’s right to use the Product and until all Personal Data is deleted or returned in accordance with Customer instructions or the terms of this Agreement;
      3. the nature and purpose of the processing will be to provide the Product pursuant to this Agreement;
      4. the types of Personal Data processed by the Product include those expressly identified in Article 4 of the GDPR; and
      5. the categories of data subjects are Customer’s representatives and end users, such as employees, contractors, collaborators, and customers, and other data subjects whose Personal Data is contained within any data made available to Company by Customer.
         
         

   3. Data Subject Rights; Assistance with Requests.

      Company will make information available to Customer in a manner consistent with the functionality of the Product and Company’s role as a processor of Personal Data of data subjects and the ability to fulfill data subject requests to exercise their rights under the GDPR. Company will comply with reasonable requests by Customer to assist with Customer’s response to such a data subject request. If Company receives a request from Customer’s data subject to exercise one or more of its rights under the GDPR in connection with a Product for which Company is a data processor or subprocessor, Company will redirect the data subject to make its request directly to Customer. Customer will be responsible for responding to any such request including, where necessary, by using the functionality of the Product. Company will comply with reasonable requests by Customer to assist with Customer’s response to such a data subject request.
      
      

   4. Use of Subprocessors.

      Customer consents to Company using the subprocessors listed at the applicable Company URL or as otherwise communicated to Company remains responsible for its subprocessors’ compliance with the obligations herein. Company may update its list of subprocessors from time to time, by providing Customer at least 14-days notice before providing any new subprocessor with access to Personal Data. If Customer does not approve of any such changes, Customer may terminate any subscription for the affected Product without penalty by providing, prior to expiration of the notice period, written notice of termination that includes an explanation of the grounds for non-approval.
      
      

   5. Records of Processing Activities.

      Company will maintain all records required by Article 30(2) of the GDPR and, to the extent applicable to the processing of Personal Data on behalf of Customer, make them available to Customer upon request.

1. Confidential Information.
   
   “Confidential Information” is non-public information that is designated “confidential” or that a reasonable person should understand is confidential, including, but not limited to, Customer Data, the terms of this Agreement, and Customer’s account authentication credentials. Confidential Information does not include information that: (1) becomes publicly available without a breach of a confidentiality obligation; (2) the receiving party received lawfully from another source without a confidentiality obligation; (3) is independently developed; or (4) is a comment or suggestion volunteered about the other party’s business, products or services.

   
   
2. Protection of Confidential Information.
   
   Each party will take reasonable steps to protect the other’s Confidential Information and will use the other party’s Confidential Information only for purposes of the parties’ business relationship. Neither party will disclose Confidential Information to third parties, except to its Representatives, and then only on a need-to-know basis under nondisclosure obligations at least as protective as this Agreement. Each party remains responsible for the use of Confidential Information by its Representatives and, in the event of discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure, must promptly notify the other party.
   
   
3. Disclosure required by law.
   
   A party may disclose the other’s Confidential Information if required by law, but only after it notifies the other party (if legally permissible) to enable the other party to seek a protective order.
   
   
4. Duration of Confidentiality obligation.
   
   These obligations apply: (1) for Customer Data, until it is deleted by Company; and (2) for all other Confidential Information, for a period of five years after a party receives the Confidential Information.

Company may offer further availability and support obligations for a Product. Such service level agreement (“SLA”) will be made available by the Company at the applicable URL for such SLA or as otherwise communicated to Customer.

Customer must keep records relating to Products it and its Affiliates use or distribute. At Company’s expense, Company may verify Customer’s and its Affiliates’ compliance with this Agreement at any time upon 30 days’ notice. To do so, Company may engage an independent auditor (under nondisclosure obligations) or ask Customer to complete a self-audit process. Customer must promptly provide any information and documents that Company or the auditor reasonably requests related to the verification and access to systems running the Products. If verification or self-audit reveals any unlicensed use, Customer must, within 30 days, order sufficient licenses to cover the period of its unlicensed use. Without limiting Company’s other remedies, if unlicensed use is 5% or more of Customer’s total use of all Products, Customer must reimburse Company for its costs incurred in verification and acquire sufficient licenses to cover its unlicensed use at 125% of the then-current Customer price or the maximum allowed under applicable law, if less. All information and reports related to the verification process will be Confidential Information and used solely to verify compliance.

Nothing in this section limits Customer’s right to audit Company under the GDPR provisions.
