  1. Processing of Customer Personal Data.

  1. MyQuest shall Process Customer Personal Data at the Customer's instructions as specified in the Terms and/or this DPA, including without limitation, with regard to transfers of Customer Personal Data to a third country or international organization. Any other Processing shall only be permitted in the event that such Processing is required by Applicable Law to which MyQuest is subject. In such event, MyQuest shall, unless prohibited by such Applicable Law, inform Customer of that requirement before engaging in such Processing.  

  1. Customer instructs MyQuest (and authorizes MyQuest to instruct each Sub Processor) to (i) Process Customer Personal Data for the provision of the services, as detailed in the Terms ("Services") and as otherwise set forth in the Terms and in this DPA; and (ii) transfer Customer Personal Data to any country or territory as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Services and in accordance with Applicable Law. 

        

  1. Customer sets forth the details of the Processing of Customer Personal Data, as required by article 28(3) of the GDPR in Schedule 1 (Details of Processing of Customer Personal Data), attached hereto.

  1. MyQuest shall be allowed to exercise its own discretion in the selection and use of such means as it considers necessary to pursue the purposes set forth in Schedule 1, subject to the requirements of this DPA.

  1. Controller. Customer represents and warrants that it has and shall maintain throughout the term of the Terms and this DPA, all necessary rights to provide the Customer Personal Data to MyQuest for the Processing to be performed in relation to the Services and in accordance with the Terms and this DPA. To the extent required by Applicable Law, Customer is responsible for obtaining any necessary Data Subject consents to the Processing, and for ensuring that a record of such consents is maintained throughout the terms of the Terms and this DPA and/or as otherwise required under Applicable Law. In the event that any Data Subject exercises any of its rights under Applicable Law, then Customer shall notify MyQuest of any such Data Subject request relevant to MyQuest, within seven (7) business days.

  1. Processor Employees. MyQuest shall take reasonable steps to ensure that access to the Customer Personal Data is limited on a need to know and/or access basis, and that all MyQuest employees receiving such access are subject to confidentiality undertakings or professional or statutory obligations of confidentiality in connection with their access to and use of Customer’s Personal Data.

  1. Security. MyQuest shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure an appropriate level of security of the Customer Personal Data, including, as appropriate and applicable, the measures referred to in Article 32(1) of the GDPR. In assessing the appropriate level of security, MyQuest shall take into account the risks that are presented by the nature of the Processing and the information available to MyQuest.

  1. Personal Data Breach.

  1. MyQuest shall notify Customer without undue delay and, where feasible, not later than within forty eight (48) hours upon MyQuest becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data. In such event, MyQuest shall provide Customer with reasonable and available information to assist Customer to meet any obligations to inform Data Subjects or Supervisory Authorities of the Personal Data Breach as required under the Applicable Law.

 

  1. At the written request of the Customer, MyQuest shall reasonably cooperate with Customer and take such commercially reasonable steps as are agreed by the parties or required under Applicable Law to assist in the investigation, mitigation and remediation of each such Personal Data Breach.

  1. Sub Processing.

  1. Customer authorizes MyQuest to appoint (and permits each Sub Processor appointed in accordance with this Section 7 to appoint) Sub Processors in accordance with this Section 7.

  1. MyQuest may continue to use those Sub Processors already engaged by MyQuest as identified to Customer as of the date of this DPA.

 

  1. MyQuest may appoint new Sub Processors and shall give notice of the appointment of any new Sub Processor to Customer by updating the list available at https://app.myquest.co/legal/myQuestsubprocessors.html. If, within seven (7) days of such notice, Customer notifies MyQuest in writing of any objections (on reasonable grounds) to the proposed appointment, MyQuest shall not appoint for the processing of Customer Personal Data the proposed Sub Processor until reasonable steps have been taken to address the objections raised by Customer, and Customer has been provided with a reasonable written explanation of the steps taken. Where such steps are not sufficient to relieve Customer’s reasonable objections then Customer or MyQuest may, by written notice to the other party, with immediate effect, terminate the Terms to the extent that it relates to the Services which require the use of the proposed Sub Processor without bearing liability for such termination.

  1. With respect to each new Sub Processor, MyQuest shall:

  1. before the Sub Processor first Processes Customer Personal Data, take reasonable steps (for instance by way of reviewing privacy policies as appropriate) to ensure that the Sub Processor is committed and able to provide the level of protection for Customer Personal Data required by the Terms; and

  1. ensure that the arrangement between MyQuest and the Sub Processor is governed by a written contract, including terms which offer materially similar level of protection for Customer Personal Data as those set out in this DPA and that meet the requirements of Applicable Law.

  1. MyQuest shall remain fully liable to the Customer for the performance of any Sub Processor's obligations.

  1. Data Subject Rights.

  1. Customer shall be solely responsible for compliance with any statutory obligations concerning requests to exercise Data Subject rights under Data Protection Laws (e.g., for access, rectification, deletion of Customer Personal Data, etc.). MyQuest shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Customer to fulfill Customer's obligations with respect to such Data Subject requests, as required under Applicable Law, at Customer’s sole expense.

  1. MyQuest shall:

  1. promptly notify Customer if it receives a request from a Data Subject under any Data Protection Law in respect of Customer Personal Data; and

  1. ensure that it does not respond to that request except on the documented instructions of Customer or as required by Applicable Law to which MyQuest is subject, in which case MyQuest shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, inform Customer of that legal requirement before it responds to the request.

  1. Data Protection Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation. 

  1. At Customer’s written request and expense, MyQuest and each Sub Processor shall provide reasonable assistance to Customer with respect to any Customer Personal Data Processed by MyQuest and/or a Sub Processor, with any data protection impact assessments or prior consultations with Supervisory Authorities or other competent data privacy authorities, as required under any applicable Data Protection Laws.

  1. Deletion or Return of Customer Personal Data. MyQuest shall promptly and in any event within up to sixty (60) days of the date of cessation of provision of the Services to Customer involving the Processing of Customer Personal Data (the "Cessation Date"), delete, return or anonymize all copies of those Customer Personal Data, provided however that MyQuest may, subject to Applicable Law, retain Customer Personal Data.

  1. Audit Rights

  1. Subject to Sections ‎11.2 and ‎11.3, MyQuest shall make available to a reputable auditor mandated by Customer in coordination with MyQuest, upon prior written request, such information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with this DPA, and shall allow for audits, including inspections, by such reputable auditor mandated by the Customer in relation to the Processing of the Customer Personal Data by MyQuest, provided that such third-party auditor shall be subject to confidentiality obligations.

  1. Any audit or inspection shall at Customer’s sole expense, and to MyQuest's obligations to third parties, including with respect to confidentiality.

  1. Customer and any auditor on its behalf shall use best efforts to minimize or avoid causing any damage, injury or disruption to MyQuests' premises, equipment, employees and business. Customer and MyQuest shall mutually agree upon the scope, timing and duration of the audit or inspection in addition to the reimbursement rate for which Customer shall be responsible. MyQuest need not give access to its premises for the purposes of such an audit or inspection:

  1. to any individual unless he or she produces reasonable evidence of identity and authority;

  1. if MyQuest was not given a prior written notice of such audit or inspection;

  1. outside normal business hours at those premises, unless the audit or inspection needs to be conducted on an emergency basis; or

  1. for the purposes of more than one (1) audit or inspection, in respect of each MyQuest, in any calendar year, except for any additional audits or inspections which:

  1. Customer reasonably considers necessary because of genuine concerns as to MyQuest’s compliance with this DPA; or

  1. Customer is required to carry out by Applicable Law, a Supervisory Authority or any similar regulatory authority responsible for the enforcement of Applicable Law in any country or territory, where Customer has identified its concerns or the relevant requirement or request in its prior written notice to MyQuest of the audit or inspection.

  1. Liability and Indemnity. Customer shall indemnify and hold MyQuest harmless against all claims, actions, third party claims, losses, damages and expenses incurred by the MyQuest and arising directly or indirectly out of or in connection with a breach of this DPA and/or the Applicable Law by Customer.

  1. General Terms

  1. Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

 

  1. The parties to this DPA hereby submit to the choice of jurisdiction stipulated in the Terms with respect to any disputes or claims howsoever arising under this DPA, including disputes regarding its existence, validity or termination or the consequences of its nullity; and

  1. This DPA and all non-contractual or other obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by the laws of the country or territory stipulated for this purpose in the Terms.

  1. Order of Precedence.

  1. Nothing in this DPA reduces MyQuest’s obligations under the Terms in relation to the protection of Customer Personal Data or permits MyQuest to Process (or permit the Processing of) Customer Personal Data in a manner that is prohibited by the Terms.

  1. This DPA is not intended to, and does not in any way limit or derogate from Customer’s own obligations and liabilities towards MyQuest under the Terms, and/or pursuant to the Applicable Law or any law applicable to Customer, in connection with the collection, handling and use of Customer Personal Data by Customer or its Affiliates or other processors or their sub-processors, including with respect to the transfer or provision of Customer Personal Data to MyQuest and/or providing access thereto to MyQuest.

  1. Subject to this Section 13.2, with regard to the subject matter of this DPA, in the event of inconsistencies between the provisions of this DPA and any other agreements between the parties, including the Terms and including (except where explicitly agreed otherwise in writing, signed on behalf of the parties) agreements entered into or purported to be entered into after the date of this DPA, the provisions of this DPA shall prevail. In the event of inconsistencies between the provisions of this DPA and the Standard Clauses, the Standard Clauses shall prevail.

  1. Changes in Data Protection Laws.

 

  1. Customer may by at least forty-five (45) calendar days' prior written notice to MyQuest, request in writing any variations to this DPA if they are required as a result of any change in, or decision of a competent authority under any applicable Data Protection Law in order to allow Customer Personal Data to be Processed (or continue to be Processed) without breach of that Data Protection Law; and

  1. If Customer gives notice with respect to its request to modify this DPA under Section ‎13.3.1:

  1. MyQuest shall make commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate such modification request; and

  1. Customer shall not unreasonably withhold or delay agreement to any consequential variations to this DPA proposed by MyQuest to protect MyQuest against additional risks, or to indemnify and compensate MyQuest for any further steps and costs associated with the variations made herein.

  1. Severance. Should any provision of this DPA be invalid or unenforceable, then the remainder of this DPA shall remain valid and in force. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall either be (i) amended as necessary to ensure its validity and enforceability, while preserving the parties’ intentions as closely as possible or, if this is not possible, (ii) construed in a manner as if the invalid or unenforceable part had never been contained therein.
