Data Protection Legislation

Both the Licensor and the Customer will comply with all applicable requirements of the Data Protection Legislation. This paragraph 2(d) is in addition to, and does not relieve, remove or replace, a party's obligations or rights under the Data Protection Legislation. 

Data Processing

Both the Licensor and the Customer acknowledge that:

  1. if the Licensor processes any personal data on the Customer's behalf when performing its obligations under this Licence, the Customer is the controller and the Licensor is the processor for the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation; and

  2. the personal data may be transferred or stored outside the UK or EEA or the country where the Customer and the Authorised Users are located in order to carry out the Services and the Licensor's other obligations under this Licence.

Where the Licensor is relying on Applicable Laws as the basis for processing personal data, the Licensor shall promptly notify the Customer of this before performing the processing required by the Applicable Laws unless those Applicable Laws prohibit the Licensor from so notifying the Customer;

  2. not transfer any personal data outside of the European Economic Area or the UK unless the following conditions are fulfilled:

  • the Customer or the Licensor has provided appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer;

  • the data subject has enforceable rights and effective legal remedies;

  • the Licensor complies with reasonable instructions notified to it in advance by the Customer with respect to the processing of the personal data;

3. assist the Customer, at the Customer's cost, in responding to any request from a data subject and in ensuring compliance with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation with respect to security, breach notifications, impact assessments and consultations with supervisory authorities or regulators;

4. notify the Customer without undue delay on becoming aware of a personal data breach, provided that the provision of such notice by the Licensor shall not be construed as an acknowledgement of fault or liability with respect to any such breach;

5. at the written direction of the Customer, delete or return personal data and copies thereof to the Customer on termination of the Licence unless required by Applicable Laws to store the personal data; 

6. make available to the Customer all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations in this clause 2(g), and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by the Customer or another auditor mandated by the Customer; and

7. maintain complete and accurate records and information to demonstrate its compliance with these requirements.

Security Measures

The Licensor shall ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures, to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data, appropriate to the harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected, having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures (those measures may include, where appropriate, pseudonymising and encrypting personal data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of its systems and services, ensuring that availability of and access to personal data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the technical and organisational measures adopted by it).

Third Party Processor

The Customer consents to the Licensor appointing [THIRD-PARTY PROCESSOR] as a third-party processor of personal data under this Licence. The Licensor confirms that it has entered or (as the case may be) will enter with the third-party processor into a written agreement incorporating terms which are substantially similar to those set out in paragraph 2(g) and 2(h) or in either case which reflect and will continue to reflect the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation. As between the Customer and the Licensor, the Licensor shall remain fully liable for all acts or omissions of any third-party processor appointed by it pursuant to this paragraph (2)(i).

Change to requirements

The Licensor may, at any time on giving not less than 30 days' notice, revise these Customer Data Processing Requirements by replacing them with any applicable controller to processor standard clauses or similar terms forming part of an applicable certification scheme (which shall apply when replaced by attachment to this licence).

Termination Consequences

The Licensor may destroy or otherwise dispose of any Customer Data in its possession unless the Licensor receives, no later than 90 days after the effective date of the termination or expiry of the Licence, a written request for the delivery to the Customer of the then most recent back-up of the Customer Data. The Licensor shall use reasonable commercial endeavours to deliver the back-up to the Customer within 30 days of its receipt of such a written request, provided that the Customer has, at that time, paid all fees and charges outstanding at and resulting from termination or expiry (whether or not due at the date of termination or expiry). The Customer shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred by the Licensor in returning or disposing of the Customer Data.

We require all third parties to whom we transfer your data to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We only allow such third parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions and this Privacy Policy.

International transfers

Countries outside of the UK or European Economic Area (EEA) do not always offer the same levels of protection to your personal data, so European law has prohibited transfers of personal data outside of the EEA unless the transfer meets certain criteria.

Many of our third party service providers are based outside of the UK and the EEA so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside of the UK or the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK and/or the EEA, we do our best to ensure a similar degree of security of data by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is in place:

we will only transfer your personal data to countries that the UK and/or the European Commission has approved as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data; 

where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the UK and/or the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in the UK and Europe; or

if we use US-based providers that are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have equivalent safeguards in place. 

If none of the above safeguards is available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.

Data security

We have put in place security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. We also allow access to your personal data only to those employees and partners who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they must keep it confidential. 

We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to do so.

  

Data retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When deciding the period of data retention, we look at its amount, nature and sensitivity, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the processing purposes, if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.

For tax purposes, the law requires us to keep basic information about our customers for six years after they stop being customers.

In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Your legal rights

Under data protection laws you have rights in relation to your personal data that include the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, to object to processing, to portability of data and (where the lawful ground of processing is consent) to withdraw consent.

You can see more about these rights at: 

You also have the right to ask us not to continue to process your personal data for marketing purposes.

You can exercise any of these rights at any time by contacting us at privacy@hindsightsoftware.com.
