If the Customer reasonably objects to the change in Sub-Processor, Digital Barriers shall use commercially reasonably endeavours to provide an alternative solution acceptable to the parties.

Assistance with compliance and Data Subject rights requests

6.1 Digital Barriers shall refer all Data Subject Requests it receives to the Customer without undue delay.

International data Transfers

7.1 In respect of the transfers of the Protected Data by Digital Barriers, as and when applicable, from the UK or the EEA to a non-Adequate Country, Digital Barriers shall enter into a lawful data transfer mechanism under the Data Protection Laws (Lawful Safeguards) so that appropriate safeguards are in place to ensure an adequate level of protection with respect to the data protection rights of individuals as required by Article 46 of the UK GDPR (in the event of a transfer governed by the UK GDPR) and Article 46 of the EU GDPR (in the event of a transfer governed by the EU GDPR).

7.2 Subject to Clause 7, the Customer hereby authorises Digital Barriers (or any Sub-Processor) to Transfer any Protected Data for the purposes referred to in paragraph 3.5 to any International Recipient(s) based in a non-Adequate Country, in accordance with paragraph 7.3, provided all Transfers of Protected Data by Digital Barriers (or any Sub-Processor) to any such International Recipient shall (to the extent required under Data Protection Laws) be effected by way of Lawful Safeguards and in accordance with Data Protection Laws and this Agreement.

7.5 If during the Term of this Agreement:

(a) either of the EU SCCs and/or the UK Addendum are varied or declared ‘inadequate’ by an applicable court, the Commissioner, or for any other reason they are no longer sufficient to legitimise the transfer of Personal Data or the European Commission withdraws the relevant adequacy decision applicable to a country recipient of the Protected Data; and/or

(b) there is any other change in law applicable to any Party to this Agreement (whether a Party at signature, or an acceding Affiliate) requiring an alternative data transfer mechanism to legitimise an international transfer,

ANNEX II – TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES INCLUDING TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES TO ENSURE THE SECURITY OF THE DATA

This document outlines the technical and organizational security measures implemented by Digital Barriers to ensure the protection of personal data as part of our commitment to data privacy and security. These measures are designed to comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations, including but not limited to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Access Controls

Access to personal data is restricted to authorized personnel only, based on the principle of least privilege.
Strong authentication mechanisms, such as passwords and multi-factor authentication, are employed to control access to systems and data.
Role-based access controls (RBAC) are implemented to ensure that users have access only to the data and systems necessary for their roles.

2. Data Encryption

Personal data is encrypted both at rest and in transit using industry-standard encryption algorithms.
Encryption keys are securely managed and stored to prevent unauthorized access.

3. Data Minimization

Only the minimum amount of personal data necessary for the intended purpose is collected, processed, and retained.
Regular reviews are conducted to identify and securely dispose of any unnecessary personal data.

4. Pseudonymisation and Anonymization

Where applicable, personal data is pseudonymized or anonymized to further protect individual privacy.
Pseudonymization techniques such as tokenization and hashing are employed to replace identifying information with pseudonyms.

5. Secure Transmission

Secure communication protocols, such as HTTPS/TLS, are used to transmit personal data over networks to prevent interception or tampering.

6. Incident Response and Management

An incident response plan is in place to address and mitigate any security incidents or breaches promptly to minimise impact to customers.
Regular security assessments and audits are conducted to identify and address vulnerabilities proactively.

7. Training and Awareness

Ongoing training and awareness programs are provided to employees to ensure they understand their roles and responsibilities regarding data privacy and security.
Employees are regularly updated on security best practices and any changes to data protection regulations.

8. Vendor Management

Third-party vendors and service providers are carefully vetted to ensure they adhere to the same high standards of data privacy and security.
Contracts with vendors include provisions for data protection and security obligations.

9. Compliance Monitoring

Compliance with data protection laws and regulations, as well as internal policies and procedures, is monitored regularly.
Compliance assessments and audits are conducted periodically to ensure adherence to security measures.

10. Review and Updates

This document is reviewed and updated periodically to reflect changes in technology, regulations, and organizational practices.
