The parties undertake, each insofar as it is concerned, to comply with all legal and regulatory obligations incumbent on them in terms of personal data protection, in particular Law 78-17 of January 6, 1978 in its latest amended version known as the Loi Informatique et Libertés and Regulation EU 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 27, 2016 (together the "Applicable Regulations").
To find out more about the processing carried out by ESWIT, the Client is invited to consult ESWIT's privacy policy, which is available on the Solution.
The purpose of this clause is to define the conditions under which ESWIT undertakes to carry out, on Client’s behalf, the personal data processing operations defined below.
As part of the Services, ESWIT processes personal data in the name and on behalf of the Client as a data processor, while the Client acts as a data controller within the meaning of the Applicable Regulation. The characteristics of the processing are described in Article 16.3.
ESWIT undertakes to process the personal data only for the purposes listed in Article 16.3 and in accordance with the Client’s documented instructions, including with regard to transfers of data outside the European Union. Where ESWIT considers that an instruction infringes the Applicable regulation, he shall immediately inform the Client thereof. Moreover, if ESWIT shall process personal data and transfer them to a third country or an international organization, according to the applicable legislation of this Agreement, he shall inform the Client of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest.
ESWIT undertakes to implement the appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the security and integrity of personal data, their backup and the restoration of their availability in the event of a physical or technical incident. ESWIT ensures that the persons authorized to process the personal data hereunder have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.
ESWIT is authorized to recruit the entities (hereinafter "the Sub-Processor") listed in Article 16.3 to carry out processing activities. ESWIT shall inform the Client, in writing beforehand, of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of Sub-Processors as listed. This information must clearly indicate which processing activities are concerned, the name and contact details of the Sub-Processor. The Client has a period of fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of receipt of this information to submit its legitimate and justifiable objections. In the absence of notification of objections after this period, the Client shall be deemed to have authorized the use of the relevant Sub-Processor. In the event of Client's continuing objections, the Parties shall meet in good faith and use their best efforts to discuss a resolution. ESWIT may choose to (i) not hire the Sub-Processor or (ii) take the corrective action requested by the Client in connection with the objections before hiring the Sub-Processor. If neither option is reasonably possible, and if ESWIT cannot for legitimate reasons hire another processor for the intended processing, either Party may terminate this Agreement upon a thirty (30) days' notice.
The Sub-Processor shall comply with the obligations hereunder on behalf of and in accordance with the Client’s instructions. ESWIT shall ensure that the Sub-Processor provides the same sufficient warranties regarding the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures so that the processing meets the requirements of the Applicable Regulation. If the Sub-Processor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations, ESWIT remains fully liable to the Client for the Sub-Processor’s performance of its obligations.
ESWIT is authorized to transfer personal data processed as part of this Agreement to countries located outside the European Union, if appropriate safeguards have been implemented as defined under Chapter V of GDPR.
ESWIT undertakes to assist the Client and to respond without undue delay to any request for information sent by the Client, whether in the context of a request for the exercise of their rights by data subjects, a privacy impact assessment, or a request made by a supervisory authority or the Client's data protection officer.
Insofar as this is possible, ESWIT shall assist the Client in fulfilling its obligation to respond to requests made to ESWIT by data subjects to exercise their rights under the Applicable Regulation. Where requests are made directly to ESWIT, ESWIT shall promptly send such requests to the Client by e-mail to the address provided by the Client.
ESWIT shall notify the Client of any personal data breach relating to the processing operations covered by this Agreement, without undue delay after becoming aware of it and to provide the Client with all relevant information and documentation relating to such personal data breach.
ESWIT undertakes, at the Client's election, to delete the personal data at the end of the Agreement or to return it to the Client and not to keep a copy of it, unless required by the Applicable Regulation. The Client has one (1) month from the end of the Agreement to exercise this choice. After this period, ESWIT shall delete all personal data.
The Client hereby authorizes ESWIT to process the personal data collected within the framework of the services (in particular the session and navigation data) for the purpose of improving ESWIT's services, and in particular for the realization of statistics on the way ESWIT’s Solution is used by the users. ESWIT will act as a data controller within the meaning of the Applicable Regulation and will respect the legal provisions of the aforesaid regulation.
ESWIT shall make available to the Client, at the Client's request, all information and documents necessary to demonstrate compliance with its obligations and allow for audits. The Client may carry out audits once a year, at its own expense to verify ESWIT's compliance with the obligations set forth in this article. The Client will inform ESWIT of the audit at least two (2) weeks before. ESWIT may refuse the identity of the auditor if it belongs to a competing company. The audit shall be conducted during work hours and with the least possible disturbance for ESWIT’s activity. The audit shall not threaten (i) technical and organizational security measures implemented by ESWIT, (ii) security and confidentiality of data of ESWIT’s other customers, (iii) the proper functioning and organization of ESWIT. When possible, Parties will agree beforehand on the scope of the audit.
