DATA PROTECTION SCHEDULE 2: UK GDPR ATTACHMENT
Under the Agreement, the Subscriber engages GetKambium to provide the Services and in providing the Services, GetKambium will or may be required to Process Personal Data on behalf of the Subscriber. To the extent of that Processing of Personal Data and for the purposes of the Agreement, the Subscriber is a ‘Controller’ and GetKambium is a ‘Processor’ for the purposes of the GDPR. As such, Article 28 of the GDPR requires that the details in this attachment are included in the contract between the Subscriber and GetKambium.
The parties must set out the subject matter and duration of the Processing, the nature and purpose of the Processing, the type of Personal Data and categories of data subjects – see appendix 1 to this attachment. If GetKambium determines the purposes and means of Processing, GetKambium is considered a ‘Controller’ in respect of that Processing in which case GetKambium needs to consider and address the different and additional provisions of the GDPR that apply.
The terms used in this attachment have the meanings given to them in the main definition section of the Agreement or in clause 13 of this attachment, or in the GDPR if not defined in the Agreement.
1 Processing of Personal Data
1.1 GetKambium will:
(a) Instructions from Subscriber: in providing Services under the Agreement, Process Personal Data only on the Subscriber’s documented instructions (as provided in clause 2 and in appendix 1 to this attachment or otherwise in writing) unless required to do so by Data Protection Laws in which case GetKambium will inform the Subscriber of that legal requirement before Processing unless GetKambium is prohibited from informing the Subscriber by that law;
(b) Confidentiality: ensure that GetKambium’s personnel who are authorised to Process the Personal Data have obligations of confidentiality to GetKambium (including as required in clause 3 below) in respect of the Personal Data or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;
(c) Security: comply with the security obligations in clause 4 below;
(d) Subprocessors: comply with the provisions relating to Subprocessors in clause 5 below;
(e) Data subjects’ rights: provide assistance to the Subscriber with responding to data subjects’ rights in accordance with clause 6 below;
(f) Assist Subscriber: comply with its obligations to assist the Subscriber in relation to security of Personal Data and data protection impact assessments and prior consultation in accordance with clause 7 below;
(g) Deleting and retuning data: after the provision of Services related to Processing of Personal Data has ended, at the choice of the Subscriber either delete or return to the Subscriber all of that Personal Data and delete existing copies unless the Data Protection Laws require storage of Personal Data in accordance with clause 8 below; and
(h) Compliance and audits: make available to the Subscriber all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with Article 28 of the GDPR and allow for and contribute to audits including inspections conducted by the Subscriber or another auditor mandated from time to time, in accordance with clause 9 below. GetKambium will immediately inform the Subscriber if, in its opinion, an instruction received from the Subscriber infringes the Data Protection Laws.
2 Instructions from Subscriber
2.1 The Subscriber instructs GetKambium (and authorises GetKambium to instruct each Subprocessor) to:
(a) Process Personal Data; and
(b) in particular, transfer Personal Data to any country or territory,
as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Services and consistent with and in compliance with the Agreement.
2.2 The Subscriber warrants and represents that it is and will at all relevant times remain duly and effectively authorised to give the instruction set out in clause 2.1 on behalf of the Subscriber.
3 Confidentiality
3.1 GetKambium will take reasonable steps to ensure the reliability of its employees, agents or contractors who may have access to Personal Data, ensuring in each case that access is limited to those individuals who need to know or need to access the relevant Personal Data, as necessary for the purposes of the Agreement, and to comply with applicable laws in the context of that individual’s duties to GetKambium, ensuring that all such individuals are subject to confidentiality undertakings or professional or statutory obligations of confidentiality.
4 Security
4.1 Subject to clause 4.2 below, GetKambium will implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including amongst other things as appropriate:
(a) the pseudonymisation and encryption of Personal Data;

5.2 GetKambium will give the Subscriber prior written notice of the appointment of any new Subprocessor, including full details of the Processing to be undertaken by the Subprocessor. If, within two weeks of receipt of that notice, the Subscriber notifies GetKambium in writing of any objections (on reasonable grounds) to the proposed appointment, GetKambium will not appoint (nor disclose any Personal Data to) the proposed Subprocessor unless and until it obtains the prior written consent of the Subscriber.
5.3 With respect to each Subprocessor, GetKambium will:
(a) enter into an agreement with the Subprocessor which includes the same data protection obligations as set out in this attachment (and Appendix 1) and in particular includes sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that the processing will meet the requirements of the GDPR. If the Subprocessor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations, GetKambium will remain fully liable to the Subscriber for the performance of that Subprocessor’s obligations;
(b) if the Processing by the Subprocessor will involve a Restricted Transfer, ensure that the Standard Contractual Clauses are at all relevant times incorporated into the agreement between GetKambium and the Subprocessor; and
(c) provide to the Subscriber for review, copies of GetKambium’s agreements with Subprocessors (confidential commercial information that is not relevant to the requirements of this attachment may be blacked out) as the Subscriber may request from time to time.
5.4 Appendix 1 to this attachment sets out certain information regarding GetKambium’s Processing of Personal Data, as required by article 28(3) of the GDPR. The Subscriber may make reasonable amendments to Appendix 1 by written notice to GetKambium from time to time as the Subscriber reasonably considers necessary to meet those requirements.

(a) GetKambium will notify the Subscriber without undue delay if GetKambium or any Subprocessor becomes aware of a Personal Data Breach, providing the Subscriber with sufficient information to allow the Subscriber to meet any obligations to report the Personal Data Breach to the relevant Supervisory Authority under the Data Protection Laws (noting that the Subscriber is required, where feasible, to notify applicable Personal Data breaches to the relevant Supervisory Authority within 72 hours after having become aware of the breach).
(b) GetKambium will co-operate with the Subscriber and take such reasonable commercial steps as are directed by the Subscriber to assist in the investigation, mitigation and remediation of each such Personal Data Breach.
7.3 Assist Subscriber with communication of Personal Data breach to Data Subject
(a) Where a Personal Data Breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons:
i. such that the Subscriber is required to communicate the Personal Data Breach to the Data Subject (including where, despite the conditions referenced in clause 7.3(a)(ii) below being met, the Supervisory Authority has required the Subscriber to communicate the Personal Data Breach to the Data Subject), GetKambium will assist the Subscriber in doing so by providing all relevant information as may be reasonably required by the Subscriber;
ii. but despite that high risk, the Subscriber is not required to communicate the Personal Data Breach to the Data Subject due to certain conditions being met (such as that the Personal Data is encrypted and so unintelligible to any person not authorised to access it), GetKambium will assist the Subscriber by providing all relevant information as may be reasonably required by the Subscriber.
7.4 Assist Subscriber with Data Protection Impact Assessments
(a) GetKambium will provide reasonable assistance to the Subscriber with any data protection impact assessments which the Subscriber reasonably considers to be required of the Subscriber by Article 35 of the GDPR or equivalent provisions of related Data Protection Laws.

9.3 GetKambium may, on reasonable grounds, object to the proposed auditor in which case the Subscriber will propose an alternate auditor.
(a) The Subscriber will give GetKambium reasonable notice of any audit or inspection to be conducted under clause 9.1 and will make (and ensure that its auditor makes) reasonable endeavours to avoid causing any damage, injury or disruption to GetKambium’s premises, equipment, personnel and business while its personnel are on those premises in the course of such an audit or inspection. GetKambium need not give access to its premises for the purposes of such an audit or inspection for the purposes of more than one audit or inspection in any calendar year, except for any additional audits or inspections which:
i. the Subscriber reasonably considers necessary because of genuine concerns as to GetKambium’s compliance with this attachment; or
ii. the Subscriber is required or requested to carry out by Data Protection Law, a Supervisory Authority or any similar regulatory authority responsible for the enforcement of Data Protection Laws in any country or territory, where the Subscriber has identified its concerns or the relevant requirement or request in its notice to GetKambium of the audit or inspection.
10 Restricted Transfers
10.1 Subject to clause 10.3, where the Services involve a ‘Restricted Transfer’, the Subscriber (as “data exporter”) and GetKambium (as “data importer”) each agrees to the Standard Contractual Clauses in respect of that Restricted Transfer.

11 Order of precedence
11.1 Nothing in this attachment reduces GetKambium’s obligations under the Agreement in relation to the protection of Personal Data or permits GetKambium to Process (or permit the Processing of) Personal Data in a manner which is prohibited by the Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this attachment and the Standard Contractual Clauses, the Standard Contractual Clauses will prevail.
11.2 Subject to clause 11.1, in the event of inconsistencies between the provisions of this attachment and the other parts of the Agreement, the provisions of this attachment will prevail.
12 Changes in Data Protection Laws
12.1 The Subscriber may by at least 30 calendar days’ written notice to GetKambium:
(a) vary the Standard Contractual Clauses (if applicable), as they apply to Restricted Transfers which are subject to non-UK data protection laws, as required as a result of any change in, or decision of a competent authority under, that data protection law, to allow those Restricted Transfers to be made (or continue to be made) without breach of that data protection law; and
(b) propose any other variations to this attachment which the Subscriber reasonably considers to be necessary to address the requirements of any data protection law.
12.2 If the Subscriber gives notice under clause 12.1(a):
(a) GetKambium will promptly co-operate (and require affected Subprocessors to promptly co-operate) to ensure that equivalent variations are made to the agreements made under clause 5.3; and
(b) the Subscriber will not unreasonably withhold or delay agreement to any consequential variations to this attachment proposed by GetKambium to protect GetKambium against additional risks associated with the variations made under this clause 12.2.
12.3 If the Subscriber gives notice under clause 12.1(b), the parties will promptly discuss the proposed variations and negotiate in good faith with a view to agreeing and implementing those or alternative variations designed to address the requirements identified in the Subscriber’s notice as soon as is reasonably practicable.

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 laws of England and Wales.
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
Subprocessing
a) 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 subprocessor which imposes the same obligations on the subprocessor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the subprocessor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the subprocessor’s obligations under such agreement.
b) The prior written contract between the data importer and the subprocessor 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 subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.
c) The provisions relating to data protection aspects for subprocessing of the contract referred to in paragraph 1 shall be governed by the laws of England and Wales.
d) The data exporter shall keep a list of subprocessing 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.

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.
b) The data importer and the subprocessor 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.
