7. Bamboozle's Obligations as a Processor, Subprocessor, or Service Provider

7.1 Bamboozle will have the obligations set forth in this Section 7 if it Processes Personal Data in its capacity as Customer’s Processor or Service Provider; for clarity, these obligations do not apply to Bamboozle in its capacity as a Controller, Business, or Third party.

7.2 Scope of Processing.

1. 7.2.1 Bamboozle will Process Personal Data to provide Services to Customer under the Agreement, and comply with applicable law. Bamboozle will notify Customer if the law changes and those changes cause Bamboozle not to be able to comply with the Agreement.

7.3 Data Subjects’ Requests to Exercise Rights. Bamboozle will promptly inform Customer if Bamboozle receives a request from a Data Subject to exercise their rights with respect to their Personal Data under applicable Data Protection Law. Customer will be responsible for responding to such requests. Bamboozle will not respond to such Data Subjects except to acknowledge their requests. Bamboozle will provide Customer with commercially reasonable assistance, upon request, to help Customer to respond to a Data Subject’s request.

7.4 Bamboozle’s Subprocessors.

1. 7.4.1 Existing Subprocessors. Customer agrees that Bamboozle may use the Subprocessors listed at Schedule 3.

2. 7.4.2 Use of Subprocessors. Customer grants Bamboozle general authorization to engage Subprocessors if Bamboozle and a Subprocessor enter into an agreement that requires the Subprocessor to meet obligations that are no less protective than this DPA.

3. 7.4.3 Notification of Additions or Changes to Subprocessors. Bamboozle will notify Customer of any additions to or replacements of its Subprocessors via email or other contact methods and make that list available on Customer’s request. Bamboozle will provide Customer with at least 30 days to object to the addition or replacement of Subprocessors in connection with Bamboozle’s performance under the Agreement, calculated from the date Bamboozle provides notice to Customer. If Customer reasonably objects to the addition or replacement of Bamboozle’s Subprocessor, Bamboozle will immediately cease using that Subprocessor in connection with Bamboozle’s Services under the Agreement, and the parties will enter into good faith negotiations to resolve the matter. If the parties are unable to resolve the matter within 15 days of Customer’s reasonable objection (which deadline the parties may extend by written agreement), Customer may terminate the Agreement and/or any statement of work, purchase order, or other written agreements. The parties agree that Bamboozle has sole discretion to determine whether Customer’s objection is reasonable; however, the parties agree that Customer’s objection is presumptively reasonable if the Subprocessor is a competitor of Customer and Customer has a reason to believe that competitor could obtain a competitive advantage from the Personal Data Bamboozle discloses to it, or Customer anticipates that Bamboozle’s use of the Subprocessor would be contrary to law applicable to Customer.

4. 7.4.4 Liability for Subprocessors. Bamboozle will be liable for the acts or omissions of its Subprocessors to the same extent as Bamboozle would be liable if performing the services of the Subprocessor directly under the DPA, except as otherwise set forth in the Agreement.

7.5 Personal Data Breach. Bamboozle will notify Customer without undue delay of a Personal Data Breach affecting Personal Data Bamboozle Processes in connection with the Services. Upon request, Bamboozle will provide information to Customer about the Personal Data Breach to the extent necessary for Customer to fulfill any obligations it has to investigate or notify authorities, except that Bamboozle reserves the right to redact information that is confidential or competitively sensitive. Notifications will be delivered to the email address Customer provides in Customer’s account. Customer agrees that email notification of a Personal Data Breach is sufficient. Bamboozle agrees that it will notify Customer if it changes its contact information. Customer agrees that Bamboozle may not notify Customer of security-related events that do not result in a Personal Data Breach.

7.6 Deletion and Return of Personal Data. Upon deactivation of the Services, all Personal Data shall be deleted, save that this requirement shall not apply to the extent Bamboozle is required by applicable law to retain some or all of the Personal Data, or to Personal Data it has archived on back-up systems, which such Personal Data Bamboozle shall securely isolate and protect from any further processing, except to the extent required by applicable law.

7.7 Audits.

1. 7.7.1 Bamboozle shall maintain records of its security standards. Upon Customer’s written request, Bamboozle shall provide (on a confidential basis) copies of relevant external ISMS certifications, audit report summaries and/or other documentation reasonably required by Customer to verify Bamboozle compliance with this DPA. Bamboozle shall further provide written responses (on a confidential basis) to all reasonable requests for information made by Customer, including responses to information security and audit questionnaires, that Customer (acting reasonably) considers necessary to confirm Bamboozle’s compliance with this DPA, provided that Customer shall not exercise this right more than once per year.

2. 7.7.2 To the extent the Standard Contractual Clauses apply and the Customer reasonably argues and establishes that the above documentation and/or other third party audit reports are not sufficient to demonstrate compliance with the obligations laid down in this DPA, the Customer may execute an audit as outlined under Clause 8.9 of the Standard Contractual Clauses accordingly, provided that in such an event, the parties agree: (a) Customer is responsible for all costs and fees relating to such audit (including for time, cost and materials expended by Bamboozle); (b) a third party auditor must be mutually agreed upon between the parties to follow industry standard and appropriate audit procedures; © such audit must not unreasonably interfere with Bamboozle’s business activities and must be reasonable in time and scope; and (d) the parties must agree to a specific audit plan prior to any such audit, which must be negotiated in good faith between the parties. For avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 7.7.2 modifies or varies the Standard Contractual Clauses, and to the extent a competent authority finds otherwise or any portion of Section 7.7.2 is otherwise prohibited, unenforceable or inappropriate in view of the Standard Contractual Clauses, the relevant portion shall be severed and the remaining provisions hereof shall not be affected.
