Specification of the Order or Contract Details

Nature and Purpose of the intended Processing of Data

Nature and Purpose of Processing of personal data by the Supplier for the Customer are precisely defined in the BlueZoo Customer Order Form and Terms of Conditions.

The undertaking of the contractually agreed Processing of Data shall be carried out exclusively within a Member State of the European Union (EU) or within a Member State of the European Economic Area (EEA). Each and every Transfer of Data to a State which is not a Member State of either the EU or the EEA requires the prior agreement of the Customer and shall only occur if the specific Conditions of Article 44 et seq. GDPR have been fulfilled.

The Personal Data transferred concern the following categories of data:

Data exporter may submit personal data to Supplier, which may include and shall be limited to the following categories of Personal Data:

• Customer name, address and other contact information
• Customer Login information
• Customer Data that may be submitted by Customers or end users of the Services.
• MAC addresses of Visitors of locations where Services of Supplier are deployed

Details of Processing Activities

The following table sets out the details of Processing:

Technical and Organizational Measures

(1) Before the commencement of processing, the Supplier shall document the execution of the necessary Technical and Organizational Measures, set out in advance of the awarding of the Order or Contract, specifically with regard to the detailed execution of the contract, and shall present these documented measures to the Customer for inspection. Upon acceptance by the Customer, the documented measures become the foundation of the contract. Insofar as the inspection/audit by the Customer shows the need for amendments, such amendments shall be implemented by mutual agreement.

(2) The Supplier shall establish the security in accordance with Article 28 Paragraph 3 Point c, and Article 32 GDPR in particular in conjunction with Article 5 Paragraph 1, and Paragraph 2 GDPR. The measures to be taken are measures of data security and measures that guarantee a protection level appropriate to the risk concerning confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of the systems. The state of the art, implementation costs, the nature, scope and purposes of processing as well as the probability of occurrence and the severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons within the meaning of Article 32 Paragraph 1 GDPR must be taken into account. [Details in Appendix 1 of this DPA]

(3) The Technical and Organizational Measures are subject to technical progress and further development. In this respect, it is permissible for the Supplier to implement alternative adequate measures. In so doing, the security level of the defined measures must not be reduced. Substantial changes must be documented.

Rectification, Restriction, and Erasure of Data

(1) The Supplier may not, on its own authority, rectify, erase or restrict the processing of data that is being processed on behalf of the Customer but only on documented instructions from the Customer.

Supplier shall provide Customer with commercially-reasonable cooperation and assistance in relation to handling an EEA Data Subject’s request for access to that person’s Personal Data, and shall promptly notify Customer if it receives a request from an EEA Data Subject for access to, correction, amendment or deletion of that person’s Personal Data.

(2) Insofar as it is included in the scope of services, the erasure policy, ‘right to be forgotten’, rectification, data portability and access shall be ensured by the Supplier in accordance with documented instructions from the Customer without undue delay.

The execution of these rights is limited to personal Customer and user login data and cannot be executed in regard to the data that is processed while executing the Services of the Processor as the anonymization process deletes all personal data (MAC addresses) within a very short delay. Only the right to oppose the processing can be executed for the Services.

Quality Assurance and Other Duties of the Supplier

In addition to complying with the rules set out in this Order or Contract, the Supplier shall comply with the statutory requirements referred to in Articles 28 to 33 GDPR; accordingly, the Supplier ensures, in particular, compliance with the following requirements:

(1) Appointed Data Protection Officer, who performs his/her duties in compliance with Articles 38 and 39 GDPR. The Customer shall be informed of his/her contact details for the purpose of direct contact. The Customer shall be informed immediately of any change of Data Protection Officer.

(2) The Supplier has appointed ePrivacy GmbH, represented by Prof. Dr. Christoph Bauer , privacy@bluezoo.io, as Data Protection Officer. The Customer shall be informed immediately of any change of Data Protection Officer.

(3) The Supplier entrusts only such employees with the data processing outlined in this contract who have been bound to confidentiality and have previously been familiarized with the data protection provisions relevant to their work. The Supplier and any person acting under its authority who has access to personal data, shall not process that data unless on instructions from the Customer, which includes the powers granted in this contract unless required to do so by law.

(4) Implementation of and compliance with all Technical and Organizational Measures included in Annex 1 of this DPA and necessary for this Order or Contract in accordance with Article 28 Paragraph 3 Sentence 2 Point c, Article 32 GDPR.

(5) The Customer and the Supplier shall cooperate, on request, with the supervisory authority in the performance of its tasks.

(6) The Customer shall be informed immediately of any inspections and measures conducted by the supervisory authority, insofar as they relate to this Order or Contract. This also applies insofar as the Supplier is under investigation or is party to an investigation by a competent authority in connection with infringements to any Civil or Criminal Law, or Administrative Rule or Regulation regarding the processing of personal data in connection with the processing of this Order or Contract.

(7) Insofar as the Customer is subject to an inspection by the supervisory authority, an administrative or summary offense or criminal procedure, a liability claim by a Data Subject or by a third party or any other claim in connection with the Order or Contract data processing by the Supplier, the Supplier shall make every effort to support the Customer.

(8) The Supplier shall periodically monitor the internal processes and the Technical and Organizational Measures to ensure that processing within his area of responsibility is in accordance with the requirements of applicable data protection law and the protection of the rights of the data subject.

(9) Verifiability of the Technical and Organisational Measures conducted by the Customer as part of the Customer’s supervisory powers referred to in item 7 of this contract.

Subcontracting

(1) Subcontracting for the purpose of this Agreement is to be understood as meaning services which relate directly to the provision of the principal service. This does not include ancillary services, such as telecommunication services, postal / transport services, maintenance and user support services or the disposal of data carriers, as well as other measures to ensure the confidentiality, availability, integrity and resilience of the hardware and software of data processing equipment. The Supplier shall, however, be obliged to make appropriate and legally binding contractual arrangements and take appropriate inspection measures to ensure the data protection and the data security of the Customer’s data, even in the case of outsourced ancillary services.

(2) The Supplier may commission subcontractors (additional contract processors) only after prior explicit written or documented consent from the Customer.

The Customer agrees to the commissioning of the following subcontractors on the condition of a contractual agreement in accordance with Article 28 paragraphs 2-4 GDPR:

Outsourcing to subcontractors or changing the existing subcontractor is permissible when: The Supplier submits such an outsourcing to a subcontractor to the Customer in writing or in text form with appropriate advance notice; and The Customer has not objected to the planned outsourcing in writing or in text form by the date of handing over the data to the Supplier; and The subcontracting is based on a contractual agreement in accordance with Article 28 paragraphs 2-4 GDPR.

(3) The transfer of personal data from the Customer to the subcontractor and the subcontractor’s commencement of the data processing shall only be undertaken after compliance with all requirements has been achieved.

(4) If the subcontractor provides the agreed service outside the EU/EEA, the Supplier shall ensure compliance with the EU Data Protection Regulations by appropriate measures. The same applies if service providers are to be used within the meaning of Paragraph 1 Sentence 2.

Ensuring an appropriate level of protection through Technical and Organizational Measures that take into account the circumstances and purposes of the processing as well as the projected probability and severity of a possible infringement of the law as a result of security vulnerabilities and that enable an immediate detection of relevant infringement events.

The obligation to report a personal data breach immediately to the Customer. The duty to assist the Customer with regard to the Customer’s obligation to provide information to the Data Subject concerned and to immediately provide the Customer with all relevant information in this regard.

Clause 5.   Obligations of the data importer

The data importer agrees and warrants:

(a) to process the personal data only on behalf of the data exporter and in compliance with its instructions and the Clauses; if it cannot provide such compliance for whatever reasons, it agrees to inform promptly the data exporter of its inability to comply, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract;

(b) that it has no reason to believe that the legislation applicable to it prevents it from fulfilling the instructions received from the data exporter and its obligations under the contract and that in the event of a change in this legislation which is likely to have a substantial adverse effect on the warranties and obligations provided by the Clauses, it will promptly notify the change to the data exporter as soon as it is aware, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract;

(c) that it has implemented the technical and organizational security measures specified in Appendix 2 before processing the personal data transferred;

Clause 6.   Liability

The parties agree that any data subject, who has suffered damage as a result of any breach of the obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 by any party or sub-processor is entitled to receive compensation from the data exporter for the damage suffered.

If a data subject is not able to bring a claim for compensation in accordance with paragraph 1 against the data exporter, arising out of a breach by the data importer or his sub-processor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11, because the data exporter has factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or has become insolvent, the data importer agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data importer as if it were the data exporter, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract of by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity.

The data importer may not rely on a breach by a sub-processor of its obligations in order to avoid its own liabilities.

If a data subject is not able to bring a claim against the data exporter or the data importer referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2, arising out of a breach by the sub-processor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 because both the data exporter and the data importer have factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent, the sub-processor agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data sub-processor with regard to its own processing operations under the Clauses as if it were the data exporter or the data importer, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity. The liability of the sub-processor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

Clause 7.   Mediation and jurisdiction

The data importer agrees that if the data subject invokes against it third-party beneficiary rights and/or claims compensation for damages under the Clauses, the data importer will accept the decision of the data subject:

(a) to refer the dispute to mediation, by an independent person or, where applicable, by the supervisory authority;

(b) to refer the dispute to the courts in the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

The parties agree that the choice made by the data subject will not prejudice its substantive or procedural rights to seek remedies in accordance with other provisions of national or international law.

Clause 8.   Cooperation with supervisory authorities

The data exporter agrees to deposit a copy of this contract with the supervisory authority if it so requests or if such deposit is required under the applicable data protection law.

The parties agree that the supervisory authority has the right to conduct an audit of the data importer, and of any sub-processor, which has the same scope and is subject to the same conditions as would apply to an audit of the data exporter under the applicable data protection law.

The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter about the existence of legislation applicable to it or any sub-processor preventing the conduct of an audit of the data importer, or any sub-processor, pursuant to paragraph 2. In such a case the data exporter shall be entitled to take the measures foreseen in Clause 5(b).

Clause 9.   Governing law

The Clauses shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established. 

Clause 10.   Variation of the contract

The parties undertake not to vary or modify the Clauses. This does not preclude the parties from adding clauses on business-related issues where required as long as they do not contradict the Clause.

Clause 11.   Sub-processing

The data importer shall not subcontract any of its processing operations performed on behalf of the data exporter under the Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the sub-processor which imposes the same obligations on the sub-processor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the sub-processor fails to fulfill its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the sub-processor’s obligations under such agreement.

The prior written contract between the data importer and the sub-processor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in paragraph 1 of Clause 6 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the sub-processor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

The provisions relating to data protection aspects for sub-processing of the contract referred to in paragraph 1 shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

The data exporter shall keep a list of sub-processing agreements concluded under the Clauses and notified by the data importer pursuant to Clause 5(j), which shall be updated at least once a year. The list shall be available to the data exporter’s data protection supervisory authority.

Clause 12.   Obligation after the termination of personal data-processing services

The parties agree that on the termination of the provision of data-processing services, the data importer and the sub-processor shall, at the choice of the data exporter, return all the personal data transferred and the copies thereof to the data exporter or shall destroy all the personal data and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, unless legislation imposed upon the data importer prevents it from returning or destroying all or part of the personal data transferred. In that case, the data importer warrants that it will guarantee the confidentiality of the personal data transferred and will not actively process the personal data transferred anymore.

The data importer and the sub-processor warrant that upon request of the data exporter and/or of the supervisory authority, it will submit its data-processing facilities for an audit of the measures referred to in paragraph 1.
