Section I — Purpose and Scope

Clause 1: Purpose and Scope

(a) These Clauses set out the rights and obligations of the Controller and the Processor when processing Personal Data on behalf of the Controller.

(b) The Clauses apply to the Processing of Personal Data as specified in Annex II.

(c) The Annexes form an integral part of these Clauses.

(d) These Clauses are without prejudice to obligations to which the Controller is subject by virtue of the GDPR.

(e) These Clauses do not by themselves ensure compliance with obligations related to international transfers in accordance with Chapter V of the GDPR. Section 5 (Restricted Transfers) of this DPA addresses international transfers separately.

Clause 2: Invariability of the Clauses

(a) The Parties undertake not to modify these Clauses except for adding or updating information in the Annexes.

(b) This does not prevent the Parties from including these Clauses in a broader contract or from adding other clauses or additional safeguards, provided that they do not directly or indirectly contradict the Clauses or detract from the fundamental rights or freedoms of data subjects.

Clause 3: Interpretation

(a) Where these Clauses use terms defined in the GDPR, those terms have the same meaning as in that Regulation.

(b) These Clauses are read and interpreted in the light of the provisions of the GDPR.

(c) These Clauses may not be interpreted in a way that is inconsistent with rights and obligations provided for in the GDPR or in a way that prejudices the fundamental rights or freedoms of the data subjects.

Clause 4: Hierarchy

In the event of a contradiction between these Clauses and the provisions of any other agreement between the Parties, the following order of precedence applies: (1) the EEA SCCs or the UK Addendum, (2) this DPA, and then (3) the Agreement.


Section II — Obligations of the Parties

Clause 5: Processor and Subprocessor Relationships

(a) Provider as Processor. Where Customer is a Controller of Customer Personal Data, Provider is a Processor Processing Personal Data on behalf of Customer.

(b) Provider as Subprocessor. Where Customer is itself a Processor of Customer Personal Data, Provider is a Subprocessor of Customer Personal Data.

Clause 6: Description of Processing

The details of the Processing operations, in particular the categories of Personal Data and the purposes of Processing, are specified in Annex II.

Clause 7: Obligations of the Parties

7.1 Instructions

(a) The Processor processes Personal Data only on documented instructions from the Controller, unless required to do so by Union or Member State law to which the Processor is subject. In this case, the Processor informs the Controller of that legal requirement before Processing, unless the law prohibits this on important grounds of public interest. Subsequent instructions may also be given by the Controller throughout the duration of the Processing. These instructions are always documented.

(b) The Processor immediately informs the Controller if, in the Processor's opinion, instructions given by the Controller infringe the GDPR or applicable Union or Member State data protection provisions.

(c) Customer instructs Provider to Process Customer Personal Data: (i) to provide and maintain the Service; (ii) as may be further specified through Customer's use of the Service; (iii) as documented in the Agreement; and (iv) as documented in any other written instructions given by Customer and acknowledged by Provider. Provider will abide by these instructions unless prohibited from doing so by Applicable Laws. Provider will immediately inform Customer if it is unable to follow the Processing instructions.

7.2 Purpose Limitation

The Processor processes the Personal Data only for the specific purpose(s) of the Processing as set out in Annex II, unless it receives further instructions from the Controller.

7.3 Duration of Processing

Processing by the Processor takes place for the duration specified in Annex II.

7.4 Security of Processing

(a) The Processor implements at least the technical and organisational measures specified in Annex III to ensure the security of the Personal Data. This includes protecting the data against a breach of security leading to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to the data ("Personal Data Breach"). In assessing the appropriate level of security, the Parties take due account of the state of the art, the costs of implementation, the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing, and the risks involved for the data subjects.

(b) The Processor grants access to the Personal Data undergoing Processing to members of its personnel only to the extent strictly necessary for implementing, managing and monitoring the contract. The Processor ensures that persons authorised to process the Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

7.5 Sensitive Data

If the Processing involves Special Category Data, the Processor applies the specific restrictions and additional safeguards described in Annex II. By default, Provider does not process Special Category Data. If Controller configures AI agents to handle Special Category Data, Controller is responsible for ensuring an appropriate legal basis and safeguards are in place and for notifying Provider.

7.6 Documentation and Compliance

(a) The Parties are able to demonstrate compliance with these Clauses.

(b) The Processor makes available to the Controller all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set out in these Clauses and allows for and contributes to audits and inspections of the Processing activities covered by these Clauses, at reasonable intervals or if there are indications of non-compliance. In deciding on a review or an audit, the Controller may take into account relevant certifications held by the Processor.

(c) The Controller may choose to conduct the audit by itself or mandate an independent auditor. Audits may also include inspections at the premises or physical facilities of the Processor and, where appropriate, are carried out with reasonable notice of at least 30 days.

(d) The Parties make the information referred to in this Clause, including the results of any audits, available to the competent supervisory authority or authorities on request.

(e) Provider will maintain records of its compliance with this DPA for 3 years after the DPA ends.

7.7 Use of Subprocessors

(a) General written authorisation. The Processor has the Controller's general authorisation for the engagement of Subprocessors from the agreed list in Annex IV. The Processor specifically informs the Controller in writing of any intended changes to that list through the addition or replacement of Subprocessors at least 30 days in advance, thereby giving the Controller sufficient time to be able to object to such changes prior to the engagement of the Subprocessor(s). The Processor provides the Controller with the information necessary to enable the Controller to exercise the right to object. The current list of Subprocessors is available at wysor.io/subprocessors.

(b) Customer has 30 days after notice of a change to the approved Subprocessors to object. If Customer does not object within 30 days, Customer is deemed to accept the changes. If Customer objects within 30 days, Customer and Provider will cooperate in good faith to resolve Customer's objection or concern.

(c) Where the Processor engages a Subprocessor for carrying out specific Processing activities on behalf of the Controller, it imposes on the Subprocessor, by way of a written contract, the same data protection obligations as the ones imposed on the Processor in accordance with these Clauses. The Processor ensures that the Subprocessor complies with the obligations to which the Processor is subject pursuant to these Clauses and the GDPR.

(d) At the Controller's request, the Processor provides a copy of such a Subprocessor agreement and any subsequent amendments. To the extent necessary to protect business secrets or other confidential information, including Personal Data, the Processor may redact the text of the agreement prior to sharing a copy.

(e) The Processor remains fully responsible to the Controller for the performance of the Subprocessor's obligations in accordance with its contract with the Processor. The Processor notifies the Controller of any failure by the Subprocessor to fulfil its contractual obligations.

(f) The Processor agrees a third-party beneficiary clause with the Subprocessor, whereby in the event that the Processor has factually disappeared, ceased to exist in law, or has become insolvent, the Controller has the right to terminate the Subprocessor contract and to instruct the Subprocessor to erase or return the Personal Data.

7.8 International Transfers

(a) Any transfer of Personal Data to third countries or international organisations by the Processor is done only on the basis of documented instructions from the Controller or in order to fulfil a specific requirement under Union or Member State law to which the Processor is subject, and takes place in compliance with Chapter V of the GDPR.

(b) The Controller agrees that where the Processor engages a Subprocessor in accordance with Clause 7.7 for carrying out specific Processing activities and those Processing activities involve the transfer of Personal Data within the meaning of Chapter V of the GDPR, the Processor and the Subprocessor can ensure compliance with Chapter V by using standard contractual clauses adopted by the Commission in accordance with Article 46(2) of the GDPR, provided the conditions for the use of those clauses are met.

Clause 8: Assistance to the Controller

(a) The Processor promptly notifies the Controller of any request it has received from a data subject. It does not respond to the request itself unless authorised to do so by the Controller.

(b) The Processor assists the Controller in fulfilling its obligations to respond to data subjects' requests to exercise their rights, taking into account the nature of the Processing. In fulfilling its obligations under (a) and (b), the Processor complies with the Controller's instructions.

(c) In addition to the Processor's obligation to assist the Controller pursuant to Clause 8(b), the Processor furthermore assists the Controller in ensuring compliance with the following obligations, taking into account the nature of the data Processing and the information available to the Processor:

  1. The obligation to carry out an assessment of the impact of the envisaged Processing operations on the protection of Personal Data ("data protection impact assessment") where a type of Processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.
  2. The obligation to consult the competent supervisory authority or authorities prior to Processing where a data protection impact assessment indicates that the Processing would result in a high risk in the absence of measures taken by the Controller to mitigate the risk.
  3. The obligation to ensure that Personal Data is accurate and up to date, by informing the Controller without delay if the Processor becomes aware that the Personal Data it is Processing is inaccurate or has become outdated.

(d) If required by Applicable Data Protection Laws, Provider will reasonably assist Customer in conducting any mandated data protection impact assessments or data transfer impact assessments ("DTIAs") and consultations with relevant data protection authorities, taking into consideration the nature of the Processing and Customer Personal Data.

(e) The Parties set out in Annex III the appropriate technical and organisational measures by which the Processor is required to assist the Controller in the application of this Clause, as well as the scope and the extent of the assistance required.

Clause 9: Notification of Personal Data Breach

In the event of a Personal Data Breach, the Processor cooperates with and assists the Controller for the Controller to comply with its obligations under Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR, taking into account the nature of Processing and the information available to the Processor.

9.1 Data Breach in Respect of Data Processed by the Controller

In the event of a Personal Data Breach concerning data processed by the Controller, the Processor assists the Controller in:

(a) Notifying the Personal Data Breach to the competent supervisory authority or authorities, without undue delay after the Controller has become aware of it, where relevant (unless the Personal Data Breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons).

(b) Obtaining the following information which, pursuant to Article 33(3) of the GDPR, must be stated in the Controller's notification, and including, at least:

  1. The nature of the Personal Data including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects concerned and the categories and approximate number of Personal Data records concerned;
  2. The likely consequences of the Personal Data Breach;
  3. The measures taken or proposed to be taken by the Controller to address the Personal Data Breach, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.

Where, and insofar as, it is not possible to provide all this information at the same time, the initial notification contains the information then available and further information is, as it becomes available, subsequently provided without undue delay.

(c) Complying, pursuant to Article 34 of the GDPR, with the obligation to communicate without undue delay the Personal Data Breach to the data subject, when the Personal Data Breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

9.2 Data Breach in Respect of Data Processed by the Processor

In the event of a Personal Data Breach concerning data processed by the Processor, the Processor notifies the Controller without undue delay, and no later than 72 hours after the Processor having become aware of the breach. Such notification contains, at least:

(a) A description of the nature of the breach (including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects and data records concerned);

(b) The details of a contact point where more information concerning the Personal Data Breach can be obtained;

(c) Its likely consequences and the measures taken or proposed to be taken to address the breach, including to mitigate its possible adverse effects.

Where, and insofar as, it is not possible to provide all this information at the same time, the initial notification contains the information then available and further information is, as it becomes available, subsequently provided without undue delay.

Provider's notification of or response to a Security Incident will not be construed as an acknowledgment by Provider of any fault or liability for the Security Incident.


Section III — Audit and Reports

Clause 10: Audit Rights

(a) Provider will give Customer all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate its compliance with this DPA and will allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections by Customer, to assess Provider's compliance with this DPA. However, Provider may restrict access to data or information if Customer's access would negatively impact Provider's intellectual property rights, confidentiality obligations, or other obligations under Applicable Laws.

(b) Customer acknowledges that Provider is regularly audited against the standards defined in the Security Policy by independent third-party auditors or through internal security reviews. Upon written request, Provider will give Customer, on a confidential basis, a summary copy of its then-current audit report so that Customer can verify Provider's compliance with the security standards.

(c) In addition to audit reports, Provider will respond to reasonable requests for information made by Customer to confirm Provider's compliance with this DPA, including responses to information security, due diligence, and audit questionnaires. All such requests must be in writing to [email protected] and may only be made once per year.


Section IV — Cooperation

Clause 11: Response to Inquiries and Requests

(a) If Provider receives any inquiry or request from a third party about the Processing of Customer Personal Data, Provider will notify Customer about the request and will not respond to the request without Customer's prior consent, unless required by Applicable Law. This includes judicial, administrative, or regulatory orders, as well as requests from data subjects.

(b) If allowed by Applicable Law, Provider will follow Customer's reasonable instructions about these requests, including providing status updates and other information reasonably requested by Customer.

(c) If a data subject makes a valid request under Applicable Data Protection Laws to delete or access Customer Personal Data, Provider will assist Customer in fulfilling the request in accordance with the Applicable Data Protection Law.


Section V — Restricted Transfers

Clause 12: Authorisation

Customer agrees that Provider may transfer Customer Personal Data outside the EEA, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland as necessary to provide the Service. If Provider transfers Customer Personal Data to a territory for which the European Commission, UK Secretary of State, or Swiss Federal Council (as applicable) has not issued an adequacy decision, Provider will implement appropriate safeguards for the transfer consistent with Applicable Data Protection Laws.

Clause 13: Ex-EEA Transfers

Customer and Provider agree that if the GDPR protects the transfer of Customer Personal Data, the transfer is from Customer within the EEA to Provider outside of the EEA, and the transfer is not governed by an adequacy decision made by the European Commission, then by entering into this DPA, Customer and Provider are deemed to have signed the EEA SCCs and their Annexes, which are incorporated by reference. Any such transfer is made pursuant to the EEA SCCs, which are completed as follows:

(a) Module Two (Controller to Processor) of the EEA SCCs apply when Customer is a Controller and Provider is Processing Customer Personal Data for Customer as a Processor.

(b) Module Three (Processor to Sub-Processor) of the EEA SCCs apply when Customer is a Processor and Provider is Processing Customer Personal Data on behalf of Customer as a Subprocessor.

(c) For each module, the following applies (when applicable):

  1. The optional docking clause in Clause 7 does not apply;
  2. In Clause 9, Option 2 (general written authorisation) applies, and the minimum time period for prior notice of Subprocessor changes is as stated in Clause 7.7(a) of this DPA;
  3. In Clause 11, the optional language does not apply;
  4. All square brackets in Clause 13 are removed;
  5. In Clause 17 (Option 1), the EEA SCCs will be governed by German law;
  6. In Clause 18(b), disputes will be resolved before the courts of Hamburg, Germany; and
  7. The Annexes to this DPA contain the information required in Annex I, Annex II, and Annex III of the EEA SCCs.

Clause 14: Ex-UK Transfers

Customer and Provider agree that if the UK GDPR protects the transfer of Customer Personal Data, the transfer is from Customer within the United Kingdom to Provider outside of the United Kingdom, and the transfer is not governed by an adequacy decision made by the United Kingdom Secretary of State, then by entering into this DPA, Customer and Provider are deemed to have signed the UK Addendum and its Annexes, which are incorporated by reference. Any such transfer is made pursuant to the UK Addendum, which is completed as follows:

(a) Clause 13 of this DPA contains the information required in Table 2 of the UK Addendum.

(b) Table 4 of the UK Addendum is modified as follows: Neither party may end the UK Addendum as set out in Section 19 of the UK Addendum. To the extent the ICO issues a revised Approved Addendum under Section 18 of the UK Addendum, the parties will work in good faith to revise this DPA accordingly.

(c) The Annexes to this DPA contain the information required by Annex 1A, Annex 1B, Annex II, and Annex III of the UK Addendum.

Clause 15: Swiss Transfers

For transfers where Swiss law (and not the law in any EEA member state or the United Kingdom) applies to the international nature of the transfer, references to the GDPR in Clause 4 of the EEA SCCs are, to the extent legally required, amended to refer to the Swiss Federal Data Protection Act (FDPA), and the concept of supervisory authority will include the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.

Clause 16: Competent Supervisory Authority

The competent supervisory authority is the supervisory authority of the data exporter, as determined in accordance with Clause 13 of the EEA SCCs or the relevant provision of the UK Addendum.


Section VI — Deletion of Customer Personal Data

Clause 17: Deletion by Customer

Provider will enable Customer to delete Customer Personal Data in a manner consistent with the functionality of the Service. Provider will comply with this instruction as soon as reasonably practicable except where further storage of Customer Personal Data is required by Applicable Law.

Clause 18: Deletion at DPA Expiration

(a) After the DPA expires, Provider will return or delete Customer Personal Data at Customer's instruction unless further storage of Customer Personal Data is required or authorised by Applicable Laws. If return or destruction is impracticable or prohibited by Applicable Laws, Provider will make reasonable efforts to prevent additional Processing of Customer Personal Data and will continue to protect the Customer Personal Data remaining in its possession, custody, or control.

(b) If Customer and Provider have entered the EEA SCCs or the UK Addendum as part of this DPA, Provider will only give Customer the certification of deletion of Personal Data described in Clause 8.1(d) and Clause 8.5 of the EEA SCCs if Customer asks for one.


Section VII — CCPA Compliance

Clause 19: Service Provider Relationship

To the extent the California Consumer Privacy Act, Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et seq. ("CCPA") applies, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Provider is a service provider and is receiving Personal Data from Customer to provide the Service as agreed in the Agreement, which constitutes a business purpose. Provider will not sell or share (as defined under the CCPA) any Personal Data provided by Customer under the Agreement. In addition, Provider will not retain, use, or disclose any Personal Data provided by Customer under the Agreement except as necessary for providing the Service, as stated in the Agreement, or as permitted by Applicable Data Protection Laws. Provider certifies that it understands the restrictions of this clause.


Section VIII — Supplement for Professionals Subject to §203 StGB

This section applies where Customer is subject to professional secrecy obligations under §203 of the German Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch, “StGB”), including but not limited to physicians, dentists, pharmacists, psychotherapists, lawyers, tax advisors, auditors, and their professional staff.

Clause 20: Acknowledgement of Professional Secrecy and Customer Consent Obligation

(a) Provider acknowledges that Customer may be subject to the obligation of professional secrecy pursuant to §203 StGB and that data processed under the Agreement may include secrets protected by §203 StGB (“Protected Secrets”). It is the Customer’s responsibility to identify which data falls under §203 StGB and to make this known to the Provider.

(b) Customer’s obligation to obtain consent. Where Customer uses the Service to process Protected Secrets (e.g., recording and transcribing patient or client conversations), Customer is solely responsible for obtaining the informed consent of the affected data subject (e.g., patient, client) prior to any such processing. Pursuant to §203 Abs. 1 StGB, disclosure of a Protected Secret is only unlawful if made without authorisation (“unbefugt”). The data subject’s consent constitutes such authorisation and lifts the secrecy obligation for the specific disclosure to Provider and its Subprocessors. Customer must ensure that the data subject is informed, at a minimum, that:

  1. The conversation will be recorded;
  2. The recording will be processed by AI-based services (speech-to-text transcription and summarisation);
  3. Processing is carried out by third-party Subprocessors within the EU on behalf of the Provider; and
  4. The audio recording is deleted immediately after processing and only the text transcript and summary are retained.

(c) Customer warrants that it will not submit any Protected Secrets to the Service without having obtained the necessary consent from the data subject. Provider is not liable for any §203 StGB violation arising from Customer’s failure to obtain proper consent.

(d) Provider undertakes to maintain strict confidentiality regarding all Protected Secrets and to only access such data to the extent necessary for the performance of the Service.

(e) Provider acknowledges that persons participating in the professional activity of a Berufsgeheimnisträger who unauthorisedly disclose a secret that has become known to them in the course of or on the occasion of their activity are criminally liable under §203 Abs. 4 Satz 1 StGB (punishable by imprisonment of up to one year or a fine). Furthermore, Provider acknowledges that a participating person is also criminally liable under §203 Abs. 4 Satz 2 Nr. 2 StGB if it engages further participating persons who unauthorisedly disclose secrets and has not ensured that those persons were bound to secrecy.

Clause 21: Secrecy Obligations

(a) Provider ensures that all employees and other persons acting on behalf of Provider (including Subprocessors) who are involved in the Processing of Protected Secrets have been bound to secrecy in Textform (within the meaning of §126b BGB) prior to commencing work and have been instructed about the potential criminal liability under §203 Abs. 4 StGB. Provider maintains a record of all persons so bound.

(b) Provider will carefully select any Subprocessors and, insofar as they may obtain knowledge of Protected Secrets in the course of their activity, bind them to secrecy. Provider will further require its Subprocessors to bind all of their personnel and any further subcontractors who may come into contact with Protected Secrets to equivalent secrecy obligations and to instruct them about the consequences of a breach. This obligation applies to all further levels of sub-contracting.

(c) Subprocessors are also informed about the right to refuse testimony (§53a StPO) and the seizure prohibition (§97 StPO), including the instruction that the Customer (as Berufsgeheimnisträger) decides on the exercise of these rights and that Provider and its Subprocessors must immediately contact Customer regarding the exercise of these rights.

(d) The obligation to maintain confidentiality continues without limitation after the termination of the Agreement.

Clause 22: Right to Refuse Testimony and Seizure Prohibition

(a) Zeugnisverweigerungsrecht (§53a StPO). Provider is informed that data processed on behalf of a Berufsgeheimnisträger may be subject to the right to refuse testimony of participating persons under §53a of the German Code of Criminal Procedure (Strafprozessordnung, “StPO”). The Customer (as Berufsgeheimnisträger) decides on the exercise of this right. In the event of any questioning or request for testimony relating to Protected Secrets, Provider will object with reference to §53a StPO and immediately inform the Customer, who will then decide on the exercise of the right to refuse testimony.

(b) Beschlagnahmeverbot (§97 StPO). Provider is informed that Protected Secrets in its custody are subject to the seizure prohibition under §97 Abs. 2 StPO. Protected Secrets may not be surrendered without the consent of the Customer (as Berufsgeheimnisträger). In the event of a seizure or attempted seizure, Provider will object and immediately inform the Customer.

Clause 23: Technical and Organisational Measures for §203 Data

In addition to the measures set out in Annex III, Provider implements the following measures to protect Protected Secrets:

(a) Logical separation or equivalent technical isolation of Customer data where the Customer is subject to §203 StGB, ensuring that Protected Secrets are not accessible to unauthorised personnel.

(b) Access to Protected Secrets is logged and auditable.

(c) Protected Secrets are encrypted at rest and in transit in accordance with the state of the art (see Annex III).

(d) Upon termination of the Agreement, all Protected Secrets are deleted or returned in accordance with Clause 18 of this DPA. Provider will, upon request, provide a written confirmation of deletion.

Clause 24: Supervisory Rights

The Customer’s rights to audit and inspect pursuant to Section III of this DPA apply in full to the Processing of Protected Secrets. Provider will cooperate with any audit conducted by the Customer or a supervisory authority regarding compliance with §203 StGB obligations.


Section IX — Non-compliance and Termination

Clause 25: Suspension and Termination

(a) Without prejudice to any provisions of the GDPR, in the event that the Processor is in breach of its obligations under these Clauses, the Controller may instruct the Processor to suspend the Processing of Personal Data until the latter complies with these Clauses or the contract is terminated. The Processor promptly informs the Controller in case it is unable to comply with these Clauses, for whatever reason.

(b) The Controller is entitled to terminate the contract insofar as it concerns the Processing of Personal Data in accordance with these Clauses if:

  1. The Processing of Personal Data by the Processor has been suspended by the Controller pursuant to point (a) and compliance with these Clauses is not restored within a reasonable time and in any event within one month of suspension;
  2. The Processor is in substantial or persistent breach of these Clauses or its obligations under the GDPR;
  3. The Processor fails to comply with a binding decision of a competent court or the competent supervisory authority or authorities regarding its obligations pursuant to these Clauses or to the GDPR.

(c) The Processor is entitled to terminate the contract insofar as it concerns the Processing of Personal Data under these Clauses where, after having informed the Controller that its instructions infringe applicable legal requirements in accordance with Clause 7.1(b), the Controller insists on compliance with its instructions.

(d) Following termination of the contract, the Processor, at the choice of the Controller, deletes all Personal Data processed on behalf of the Controller and certifies to the Controller that it has done so, or returns all the Personal Data to the Controller and deletes existing copies unless Union or Member State law requires storage of the Personal Data. Until the data is deleted or returned, the Processor continues to ensure compliance with these Clauses.


Section X — Limitation of Liability

Clause 26: Liability

(a) Liability caps. To the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Data Protection Laws, each party's total cumulative liability to the other party arising out of or related to this DPA will be subject to the waivers, exclusions, and limitations of liability stated in the Agreement.

(b) Related-party claims. Any claims made against Provider or its affiliates arising out of or related to this DPA may only be brought by the Customer entity that is a party to the Agreement.

(c) Exceptions. This DPA does not limit any liability to an individual about the individual's data protection rights under Applicable Data Protection Laws. In addition, this DPA does not limit any liability between the parties for violations of the EEA SCCs or UK Addendum.


Section XI — General Provisions

Clause 27: Conflicts Between Documents

This DPA forms part of and supplements the Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between this DPA, the Agreement, or any of their parts, the part listed earlier will control over the part listed later for that inconsistency: (1) the EEA SCCs or the UK Addendum, (2) this DPA, and then (3) the Agreement.

Clause 28: Term

This DPA takes effect when Provider and Customer agree to the Agreement (including by electronic acceptance) and continues until the Agreement expires or is terminated.
