Dokumen ini hanya tersedia dalam bahasa Inggris.

Versi bahasa Inggris adalah versi yang berlaku secara hukum. Antarmuka situs diterjemahkan sebagai kemudahan.

This Data Processing Addendum (this "DPA") forms part of the agreement between SALESQL LTD ("SalesQL", "we", "us" or the "Processor"), a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 11982774, and the customer ("Customer" or the "Controller") that has accepted the SalesQL Terms of Service or has otherwise entered into an agreement with SalesQL for the use of the Services (the "Agreement"). This DPA is incorporated into the Agreement by reference.

This DPA applies where SalesQL processes Customer Personal Data on behalf of the Customer in the course of providing the Services. It does not apply to Profile Data, which SalesQL processes as an independent controller; the Customer's processing of Profile Data is addressed in the SalesQL Terms of Service and the SalesQL Privacy Policy.

By accepting the Agreement (including by clicking "I agree", creating an Account, or otherwise using the Services), the Customer accepts this DPA. Where the Customer requires a counter-signed copy of this DPA, the Customer may request one by writing to legal@salesql.com; SalesQL will return a counter-signed copy reasonably promptly.

In this DPA, capitalised terms used but not defined have the meanings given in the Agreement. The following additional definitions apply:

#2. Roles, scope and duration of processing

#2.1 Roles

For Customer Personal Data, the Customer is the Controller and SalesQL is the Processor. The Customer's Permitted Affiliates whose Personal Data is processed under the Agreement are also Controllers of their respective Customer Personal Data; for the purposes of this DPA, they are deemed represented by, and act through, the Customer.

For Profile Data and other Personal Data SalesQL processes for its own purposes (such as for the operation of the SalesQL website, accounts, analytics, fraud prevention and Service-improvement activities), SalesQL is a Controller. Such processing is outside the scope of this DPA and is addressed in the Privacy Policy.

#2.2 Subject-matter and duration

The subject-matter of the processing under this DPA is the provision of the Services to the Customer. The duration of the processing is the duration of the Agreement and any additional period required for SalesQL to comply with its deletion or return obligations under Section 13 or Applicable Data Protection Law.

#2.3 Nature and purpose of processing

SalesQL processes Customer Personal Data for the purposes of providing the Services to the Customer in accordance with the Agreement, the Customer's documented instructions, and Applicable Data Protection Law. The nature of the processing is described in further detail in Annex 1 (Description of Processing).

#2.4 Types of Personal Data and categories of Data Subjects

The categories of Customer Personal Data and Data Subjects are set out in Annex 1.

#3. Customer instructions and Customer obligations

#3.1 Documented instructions

SalesQL will process Customer Personal Data only on documented instructions from the Customer. The Agreement (including this DPA, the Customer's use of the Services in accordance with the Documentation, and any specific written instructions provided by the Customer that SalesQL has accepted in writing) constitutes the Customer's complete and final documented instructions. Additional or alternative instructions may be agreed in writing between the parties from time to time.

#3.2 Where SalesQL is required by law to process beyond instructions

If SalesQL is required by Applicable Data Protection Law to process Customer Personal Data otherwise than on the Customer's instructions, SalesQL will (where legally permitted) inform the Customer of that legal requirement before processing.

#3.3 Customer warranties and obligations

The Customer represents, warrants and undertakes that:

  • it has all necessary rights, lawful bases, consents and notifications in place for the processing of Customer Personal Data, including for SalesQL's processing under this DPA and for any onward transfers to Subprocessors and to other recipients of Customer Personal Data described in the Agreement;
  • the Customer's instructions to SalesQL comply with Applicable Data Protection Law;
  • the Customer has provided to Data Subjects all notices required by Applicable Data Protection Law (including under Articles 13 and 14 UK/EU GDPR), in respect of the processing performed by SalesQL under this DPA;
  • the Customer's use of the Services, including with respect to outbound communications sent through Campaigns, complies with Applicable Data Protection Law and with the additional Customer compliance obligations set out in the Terms of Service.

#3.4 Notification of unlawful instructions

SalesQL will notify the Customer if, in SalesQL's opinion, an instruction infringes Applicable Data Protection Law. This is without prejudice to SalesQL's right to refuse to comply with an unlawful instruction.

#4. Personnel and confidentiality

SalesQL will:

  • ensure that personnel authorised to process Customer Personal Data are bound by appropriate written confidentiality obligations or are under a statutory duty of confidentiality;
  • limit access to Customer Personal Data to personnel who need access to perform their duties;
  • provide appropriate training to those personnel in respect of data protection.

#5. Security

#5.1 Technical and organisational measures

SalesQL will implement and maintain appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation, and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing. The current measures are described in Annex 2 (Technical and Organisational Measures).

#5.2 Updates

SalesQL may update Annex 2 from time to time, provided that the overall level of security is not materially decreased.

#6. Subprocessors

#6.1 General authorisation

The Customer grants SalesQL a general authorisation to engage Subprocessors to process Customer Personal Data, subject to the conditions in this Section 6.

#6.2 Current Subprocessors

SalesQL maintains a current list of Subprocessors at https://salesql.com/legal/subprocessors. The Customer is deemed to have approved the engagement of all Subprocessors listed at the effective date of the Agreement.

#6.3 New Subprocessors

SalesQL will give the Customer at least 30 days' notice before authorising a new Subprocessor. Notice may be provided through the Subprocessors page, by email, or by another in-Service notification mechanism. To receive Subprocessor change notifications by email, the Customer may write to legal@salesql.com with the subject line "Subscribe — Subprocessors notifications".

#6.4 Objection right

The Customer may, in good faith and with reasonable grounds relating to data protection, object in writing to a new Subprocessor within the notice period set out in Section 6.3. SalesQL will discuss the objection with the Customer in good faith. If the parties cannot agree, the Customer may terminate the affected portion of the Subscription with respect to which the new Subprocessor is engaged, and SalesQL will refund Fees pre-paid for the unused portion of the Subscription Term.

#6.5 Subprocessor obligations

SalesQL will impose on each Subprocessor data protection obligations no less protective than those set out in this DPA, in particular providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures and to ensure that the processing meets the requirements of Applicable Data Protection Law. SalesQL remains liable to the Customer for the performance of each Subprocessor's data protection obligations.

#7. International transfers

#7.1 Locations

The Customer authorises SalesQL to transfer Customer Personal Data to the locations identified for SalesQL and its Subprocessors at https://salesql.com/legal/subprocessors and in Annex 3.

#7.2 Restricted Transfers — EU SCCs

Where SalesQL receives Customer Personal Data subject to the EU GDPR by way of a Restricted Transfer, the EU SCCs Module 2 (Controller to Processor), in the Annex to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914, are incorporated into this DPA by reference and apply to such transfer. The parties agree that:

  • Clause 7 (Docking Clause) applies.
  • Clause 9 (Use of subprocessors) applies, with Option 2 (general written authorisation) selected, and the time period for prior notice of subprocessor changes is 30 days as set out in Section 6.3.
  • Clause 11 (Redress) optional language does not apply.
  • Clause 17 (Governing law): Irish law applies, unless the Customer is established in another EU Member State, in which case the law of that Member State applies.
  • Clause 18 (Choice of forum and jurisdiction): the courts of Ireland, unless the Customer is established in another EU Member State, in which case the courts of that Member State.
  • The Annexes to the EU SCCs are completed as set out in Annex 4 of this DPA.

Where SalesQL transfers Customer Personal Data to a Subprocessor outside the EEA in the course of providing the Services, EU SCCs Module 3 (Processor to Processor) is incorporated and applies to that onward transfer, completed mutatis mutandis.

#7.3 Restricted Transfers — UK Addendum

Where SalesQL receives Customer Personal Data subject to the UK GDPR by way of a Restricted Transfer, the UK Addendum is incorporated into this DPA by reference and applies to such transfer. The parties agree that:

  • The information for Tables 1 to 3 of the UK Addendum is as set out in Annex 4.
  • Table 4: neither party may end the UK Addendum as set out in Section 19 of the UK Addendum.

The parties may alternatively use the UK IDTA in lieu of the UK Addendum for any Restricted Transfer, where mutually agreed.

#7.4 Restricted Transfers — Swiss FADP

Where SalesQL receives Customer Personal Data subject to the Swiss FADP by way of a Restricted Transfer, the EU SCCs are deemed amended as follows:

  • references to the EU GDPR are also references to the Swiss FADP;
  • references to "EU", "Member States" and "EU Member State" are interpreted to include Switzerland;
  • references to "supervisory authority" include the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) and the courts of Switzerland;
  • the governing law for transfers exclusively subject to the Swiss FADP is Swiss law.

#7.5 Schrems II supplementary measures

In addition to the contractual safeguards above, SalesQL applies and contractually requires its Subprocessors to apply the supplementary technical, contractual and organisational measures set out in Annex 5 (Schrems II Supplementary Measures), which include encryption in transit and at rest where applicable, contractual challenge of disproportionate government access requests, and transparency reporting in accordance with applicable law.

#7.6 Conflict

In the event of a conflict between this DPA and the EU SCCs, UK Addendum, UK IDTA, or Swiss adaptations referenced above with respect to a Restricted Transfer, the SCCs / Addendum / IDTA / Swiss adaptations prevail with respect to that Restricted Transfer.

#8. Assistance with Data Subject rights

#8.1 Direct requests

If SalesQL receives a request from a Data Subject in respect of Customer Personal Data (such as a request for access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability or objection), SalesQL will, without undue delay, refer the Data Subject to the Customer and inform the Customer of the request, except where SalesQL is required by Applicable Data Protection Law to respond directly.

#8.2 Functionality and assistance

Taking into account the nature of the processing, SalesQL will assist the Customer by appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as possible, to fulfil the Customer's obligation to respond to Data Subject rights requests in respect of Customer Personal Data. Such assistance includes the functionality made available within the Services and reasonable cooperation with Customer-initiated rights-handling processes. Additional support beyond that available in the Services may be provided at SalesQL's standard rates.

#9. Personal Data Breach

#9.1 Notification

SalesQL will notify the Customer without undue delay, and in any event within 48 hours, after becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data. Notification will include, to the extent then known, the information required by Article 33(3) UK/EU GDPR.

#9.2 Cooperation

SalesQL will cooperate with the Customer and provide such information as the Customer reasonably requires to meet its breach-notification obligations under Applicable Data Protection Law. Notification of a Personal Data Breach is not, in itself, an admission of fault or liability.

#9.3 Mitigation

SalesQL will take reasonable steps to investigate, contain, mitigate and remediate the effects of the Personal Data Breach.

#10. Data Protection Impact Assessments and prior consultation

Taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to SalesQL, SalesQL will provide reasonable assistance to the Customer in respect of any data protection impact assessment, and any prior consultation with a Supervisory Authority, that the Customer is required to carry out in connection with the Services. Additional support may be provided at SalesQL's standard rates.

#11. Audits

#11.1 Information

SalesQL will make available to the Customer all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations laid down in Article 28 UK/EU GDPR and equivalent provisions in this DPA, including by providing the Customer with relevant Service Documentation, this DPA, the Privacy Policy, the AUP, the Subprocessors page, Annex 2 of this DPA, and any third-party security assessment reports, attestations or certifications that SalesQL elects to make available from time to time.

#11.2 Audit

To the extent the information made available under Section 11.1 is insufficient to demonstrate compliance, the Customer may, on no fewer than 30 days' prior written notice and not more than once per calendar year (except where required following a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data or where required by a Supervisory Authority), conduct or have a mutually agreed independent third-party auditor conduct an audit of SalesQL's compliance with this DPA. The audit will:

  • be conducted at the Customer's expense;
  • be subject to confidentiality obligations no less protective than those in the Agreement;
  • not unreasonably interfere with SalesQL's business operations;
  • not include access to information of other customers, internal pricing or commercially sensitive information not strictly required to demonstrate compliance.

The parties will agree the scope, timing and methodology of the audit in good faith. SalesQL will use reasonable efforts to address any material findings in a timely manner.

#12. Special category data

The Services are not designed to process Special Category Personal Data. The Customer must not upload or otherwise submit Special Category Personal Data through the Services without SalesQL's prior written consent and an additional written agreement specifying the additional safeguards that will apply.

#13. Deletion or return at the end of processing

#13.1 At the Customer's choice

At the end of the provision of the Services, SalesQL will, at the Customer's choice (expressed in writing within 30 days of the end of the provision of Services):

  • delete Customer Personal Data; or
  • return Customer Personal Data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and delete existing copies.

If the Customer does not express a choice within 30 days, SalesQL will delete Customer Personal Data.

#13.2 Retention permitted by law

SalesQL may retain Customer Personal Data to the extent and for the period required by Applicable Data Protection Law or other applicable law (for example, for evidence in legal proceedings, anti-money-laundering record-keeping, or tax records). During such retention, SalesQL will continue to process the retained Customer Personal Data only as required by such law and will treat it as confidential.

#13.3 Backups

SalesQL's standard backup schedule may temporarily retain copies of Customer Personal Data after deletion. Such backup copies will be overwritten in accordance with SalesQL's standard backup retention cycle (up to 90 days) and during this period will not be processed except for backup-restoration purposes if required.

#14. Liability

#14.1 Limitation

Each party's liability arising under or in connection with this DPA, regardless of the form of action, is subject to the limitations of liability set out in the Agreement.

#14.2 Carve-out

Nothing in this DPA limits or excludes any liability that cannot be lawfully limited or excluded under Applicable Data Protection Law, including the parties' direct liability to Data Subjects under Article 82 UK/EU GDPR.

#15. Term and termination

This DPA enters into effect on the effective date of the Agreement and continues in effect for the duration of the Agreement and any additional period required for SalesQL to comply with its deletion or return obligations under Section 13 or Applicable Data Protection Law.

#16. Order of precedence

In the event of a conflict between the documents that form the relationship between the parties with respect to the processing of Customer Personal Data, the order of precedence is:

  1. The EU SCCs, the UK Addendum, the UK IDTA, and Swiss adaptations referenced in Section 7, with respect to the matters they address.
  2. This DPA.
  3. The Terms of Service or other body of the Agreement.

#17. Miscellaneous

#17.1 Governing law

Subject to Section 7 (which governs the law applicable to specific Restricted Transfers), this DPA is governed by the laws of England and Wales.

#17.2 Severability

If any provision of this DPA is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

#17.3 Amendments

SalesQL may update this DPA from time to time as required by changes in Applicable Data Protection Law or to reflect changes in the Services or in the safeguards described in the Annexes, with reasonable notice to the Customer. Updates that materially decrease the protections available to the Customer or to Data Subjects will be subject to the Customer's prior consent or a right of termination.

#17.4 No third-party beneficiaries

Except as expressly provided in the EU SCCs (where Data Subjects are intended third-party beneficiaries), this DPA does not create any third-party beneficiary rights.

#17.5 Counterparts and electronic signature

This DPA may be executed in counterparts and by electronic signature, each of which is deemed an original and which together constitute one and the same instrument.
