Data Processing Schedule

This Data Processing Schedule (" Schedule") is incorporated into the Terms and Conditions ("Terms") entered into between Joyned and the Customer and is effective as of the date the Customer agrees to these Terms.

Definitions

For the purposes of this Schedule, the following terms: "Controller", "Data Subject", "Data Subject", "Personal Data", "Personal Data Breach", "processing", "Processor" and "Sub-Processor" shall have the meanings given to them at Article 4 of the GDPR. The following terms shall have the meanings:

Schedule 1 Data Processing

1. Scope of this Schedule

For the purposes of this Schedule and the Terms, the parties acknowledge and agree that:

1. This Schedule does not apply to any data which does not, by itself, contain any information that would allow for the identification of an individual and therefore shall not constitute Personal Data under the Applicable Privacy Laws.
2. This Schedule does not apply to the Parties' respective obligations as independent Controllers of Personal Data.

2. Roles of the Parties

The parties agree that this Schedule shall only apply to processing activities whereby:

1. The Customer acts as Controller and Joyned acts as Processor in respect of Protected Data that is processed by Joyned as part of its Services. For the avoidance of doubt, the Schedule shall only apply to data processing performed by Joyned as part of the Services subscribed to by the Customer in the Terms.
2. Nothing in this Schedule relieves either party of any of their respective responsibilities or liabilities under the Applicable Privacy Laws.

3. Customer's Compliance with Applicable Privacy Laws

When acting as Controller, the Customer shall at all times comply with all Applicable Privacy Laws. The Customer shall ensure all instructions given by it to Joyned in respect of Protected Data (including the terms of this Schedule) shall at all times be in accordance with Applicable Privacy Laws. The Customer shall be solely responsible for ensuring that it has obtained all applicable consents and has provided all advance notice and information of the processing contemplated hereunder to any Data Subjects, as required of it under Applicable Privacy Laws.

4. Joyned's Compliance with Applicable Privacy Laws

Joyned shall process Protected Data in compliance with the obligations placed on it under Applicable Privacy Laws and the terms of this Schedule.

5. Instructions

Joyned shall only process (and shall ensure that its personnel and Sub-Processors only process) the Protected Data in accordance with the Customer's instructions set out at Part A of this Schedule and the terms of this Schedule, except to the extent: (a) that alternative processing instructions are agreed between the parties in writing; or (b) otherwise required by Applicable Privacy Laws (in which case, Joyned shall inform the Customer of that legal requirement before processing, unless applicable law prevents it doing so on important grounds of public interest). If Joyned believes that any instruction received by it from the Customer is likely to infringe the Applicable Privacy Laws, it shall be entitled to cease to provide the relevant lead facilitation services under the Terms, without liability, until the parties have agreed appropriate amended instructions which are not infringing.

6. Security

To protect the Protected Data against accidental, unauthorised or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or access, Joyned shall implement and maintain the technical and organisational measures in accordance with Joyned's security commitment set out in Part B of this Schedule.

7. Sub-Processing

1. Joyned's current list of Sub-Processors is set forth in Part C, which Joyned may update in its discretion from time to time. The Customer may request an up-to-date list of Sub-Processors at any time acting reasonably. The Customer may reasonably object to Joyned's replacement of a Sub-Processor or use of a new Sub-Processor by notifying Joyned promptly in writing, and in any case, within ten (10) Business Days after provision by Joyned of its updated list. The Customer shall provide reasonable grounds for its objection, which must relate to compliance with Applicable Privacy Laws. In the event the Customer fails to object in the foregoing timeframe, such Sub-Processor(s) shall be deemed to be accepted by the Customer and added to Part C.
2. In the event the Customer reasonably objects to the replacement or use of new Sub-Processor(s), as permitted in Section 7(a), Joyned will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the Customer a change in the Services or recommend a commercially reasonable change to Customer's configuration or use of the Services to avoid processing of Protected Data by the objected-to replacement or new Sub-Processor(s). If Joyned does not or is unable to make available such change within a reasonable time frame, the Customer may terminate the applicable part of the Services which cannot be provided by Joyned without the use of the objected-to replacement or new Sub-Processor(s), upon providing thirty (30) Business Days written notice to Joyned. Termination of affected Service by the Customer shall be deemed a termination for convenience by the Customer and shall not impact the Customer's payment obligations under the Terms.
3. Prior to the relevant Sub-Processor(s) carrying out any processing activities in respect of the Protected Data, Joyned shall ensure that each such Sub-Processor(s) is bound by a written contract containing materially the same obligations as under this Schedule that is enforceable by Joyned. Joyned shall: (i) remain fully liable to the Customer under this Schedule for all the acts and omissions of each Sub-Processor as if they were its own (but not to a greater extent than that); and (ii) ensure that all persons authorised by Joyned (including Joyned's personnel) or any Sub-Processor to process Protected Data are subject to a binding written contractual obligation to keep the Protected Data confidential.

8. Data Subjects Rights

1. Joyned shall (at the Customer's cost) assist the Customer in ensuring compliance with the Customer's obligations pursuant to Articles 32 to 36 of the GDPR (and any similar obligations under the Applicable Privacy Laws) taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Joyned. Taking into account the nature of the processing, Joyned shall (at the Customer's cost) assist the Customer by implementing appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of the Customer's obligations to respond to requests for exercising the Data Subjects' rights under Chapter III of the GDPR (and any similar obligations under Applicable Privacy Laws) in respect of any Protected Data, as this relates to Protected Data.
2. Joyned shall promptly notify the Customer if it receives a request from a Data Subject under any Data Protection Law in respect of the Customer's Personal Data; and ensure that it does not respond to that request except on the documented instructions of the Customer or as required by applicable laws to which Joyned is subject, in which case Joyned shall to the extent permitted by applicable laws inform the Customer of that legal requirement before responding to the request.

9. International Transfers

Joyned shall not process and/or transfer, or otherwise directly or indirectly disclose, any Protected Data under Applicable Privacy Laws in or to countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) deemed to include the UK from 1st of July 2021) (unless the Customer or Data Subject is based outside of the EEA without the prior written authorisation of the Customer, unless Joyned has implemented one of the safeguards set out in Chapter V (Articles 44-50) of the GDPR (including use of the Standard Contractual Clauses listed in the Annex) prior to such processing/transfer taking place. If the transfer is required by law, Joyned will inform the Customer of the legal requirement before such transfer.

10. Audits and Processing

Joyned shall, in accordance with Applicable Privacy Laws, make available to the Customer such information that is in its possession or control as is necessary to demonstrate Joyned's compliance with the obligations placed on it under this Schedule and to demonstrate compliance with the obligations on each party imposed by Article 28 of the GDPR (and under any equivalent Applicable Privacy Laws equivalent to that Article 28) for any Protected Data, and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, by the Customer (or another auditor mandated by the Customer) for this purpose (subject to a maximum of one audit request in any 12-month period, and provided that such audit is conducted on reasonable notice, during normal business hours in the United Kingdom, and results in minimal disruption to Joyned's business, except where the audit relates to or follows a Personal Data Breach).

11. Personal Data Breach

Joyned shall notify the Customer without undue delay and in writing on becoming aware of any Personal Data Breach in respect of any Protected Data and provide all information that Joyned considers the Customer would reasonably require in order to handle such Personal Data Breach. Joyned shall cooperate with the Customer and take reasonable commercial steps as are directed by the Customer to assist in the investigation, mitigation and remediation of each such Personal Data Breach.

12. Deletion/Return

Upon termination of provision of the Services under the Terms, at the Customer's cost and the Customer's option, Joyned shall either return the Protected Data that has been provided by the Customer only to the Customer or securely dispose of such Protected Data that was provided by the Customer (and thereafter promptly delete all existing copies of it) except to the extent that any applicable law requires Joyned to store such Protected Data. Joyned shall not be required to retain any Protected Data for longer than thirty (30) Business Days following termination of expiry of the Terms. In the absence of the Customer requesting return of its Protected Data within this timeframe, Joyned shall be entitled to delete such Protected Data as it sees fit.

13. Liability

Each party shall only be liable for their own breach of the Applicable Privacy Laws or of this Schedule and shall not be jointly and/or severally liable for the other party's breach. Accordingly, each Party agrees to hold harmless and to indemnify the other for any losses incurred due to the breach of the Applicable Privacy Laws arising out of or in connection with a party's processing activity of Personal Data as contemplated in Section 13. In all cases, Joyned's liability to the Customer for any breach of this Schedule or the Applicable Privacy Laws shall be subject to the cap on liability contained in the Terms.

14. General Terms

1. Confidentiality. The confidentiality provisions in the Terms shall apply to all information and data contemplated under this Schedule.
2. Notices. All notices and communications given under this Schedule must be in writing and will be delivered personally, sent by post or by email to the address or email as set out in the Terms
3. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Schedule is governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute arising in connection with this Schedule, which the Parties will not be able to resolve amicably, will be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

‍

Part B Minimum technical and organisational security measures

In accordance with Applicable Privacy Laws, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing of the Protected Data to be carried out under or in connection with the Terms, as well as the risks of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons and the risks that are presented by the processing, especially from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to the Protected Data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed, Joyned shall implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures appropriate to the risk, including, as appropriate, those matters mentioned in Articles 32(1)(a) to 32(1)(d) (inclusive) of the GDPR, to Protected Data.
