If compelled to do so by law, the receiving party may disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as long as it provides reasonable prior notice to the disclosing party (unless legally prohibited). The terms of the Agreement will be Confidential Information of Kapstan (but Customer may disclose this Agreement to its professional advisors and as required by law).

11.1. Kapstan will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Customer and its officers, directors, employees and representatives from, to the extent payable to unaffiliated third parties, any actual, out of pocket liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Liabilities”) from any third-party claim that the Services in the form made available by Kapstan infringe such third-party’s intellectual-property rights. Customer will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kapstan and its officers, directors, employees and representatives (collectively, “Kapstan Parties”) from any actual, out of pocket Liabilities from any third-party claim arising out of or from (i) Customer Data or any other Customer information or materials; (ii) Customer’s violation of applicable laws or regulations or infringement of the intellectual-property or other rights of a third party; or (iii) any Third-Party Application.

The indemnitor will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, agree to any settlement of any such claim that does not include a complete release of the indemnified party from all liability or that imposes any liability, obligation or restriction on the indemnified party. The indemnified party may participate with its own counsel, at its own expense. This Section 11 states the indemnifying party’s sole liability to, and the indemnified party’s exclusive remedy against, the other party for any third party claim described in this section.

11.2. Kapstan will have no obligation for claims arising out of or from (a) Services that are modified by Kapstan in compliance with Customer’s specifications, where the cause of action would not have arisen but for such modification, (b) the combination of the Services with products or services not supplied by Kapstan, where the cause of action would not have arisen but for such combination, (c) the unauthorized adaptation or modification of the Services, where the cause of action would not have arisen but for such adaptation or modification, (d) Customer’s failure to follow instructions provided by Kapstan which would have cured the cause of action, provided that following such instructions would not have caused Customer substantial, additional cost, (e) use of the Services other than as described in the Agreement, (f) Customer’s breach of this Agreement, (e) Customer’s continued use of a version of the Services other than the most recently released version, where the cause of action would not have arisen if such most recently released version had been used or (f) free Services. If any of the subsections above apply, Customer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Kapstan Parties from and against any Liabilities from such claims.  

11.3. If the Services are held in a suit or proceeding to infringe any intellectual-property or other rights of a third party, or Kapstan reasonably believes that it is likely to be found to do so, then Kapstan may, at its sole cost, expense and option, either (a) procure the right to continue using the Services or (b) modify the Services so that they become non-infringing without affecting the basic functionality of the Services; provided, however, that if (a) and (b) are not practicable, Kapstan may, in its sole discretion, terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable portion of the Services by giving Customer 30 days’ written notice, upon which termination Kapstan will refund the portion of any prepayment that reflects the remaining subscription term.

iii) and during Kapstan’s normal business hours, under reasonable duration and shall not unreasonably interfere with Kapstan’s day-to-day operations. Before any On-Site Audit commences, Customer and Kapstan shall mutually agree upon the scope, timing, and duration of the audit and the reimbursement rate for which Customer shall be responsible. All reimbursement rates shall be reasonable, taking into account the resources expended by or on behalf of Kapstan.


6.2.4. Third-party Auditor. A Third party Auditor means a third-party independent contractor that is not a competitor of Kapstan. An On-Site Audit can be conducted through a Third party Auditor if:

i) prior to the On-Site Audit, the Third party Auditor enters into a non-disclosure agreement containing confidentiality provisions no less protective than those set forth in the Agreement to protect Kapstan’s proprietary information;

ii) and the costs of the Third party Auditor are at Customer’s expense.

6.2.5. Findings. Customer must promptly provide Kapstan with information regarding any non-compliance discovered during the course of an On-Site Audit.

6.3 Data Protection Impact Assessment. Upon Customer’s request, Kapstan shall provide Customer with reasonable cooperation and assistance needed to fulfil Customer’s obligation under Data Protection Laws and Regulations to carry out a data protection impact assessment related to Customer’s use of the Services, to the extent Customer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information, and to the extent such information is available to Kapstan.


7. CUSTOMER DATA INCIDENT MANAGEMENT AND NOTIFICATION. Kapstan maintains security incident management policies and procedures and shall notify Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to Customer Data, including Personal Data, transmitted, stored or otherwise Processed by Kapstan or its Sub-processors of which Kapstan becomes aware (a “Customer Data Incident”). Kapstan shall make reasonable efforts to identify the cause of such Customer Data Incident and take such steps as Kapstan deems necessary and reasonable to remediate the cause of such a Customer Data Incident to the extent the remediation is within Kapstan’s reasonable control. The obligations herein shall not apply to incidents that are caused by Customer or Customer’s users.


8. GOVERNMENT ACCESS REQUESTS.
8.1. Kapstan requirements. In its role as a Processor, Kapstan shall maintain appropriate measures to protect Personal Data in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws and Regulations, including by implementing appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect Personal Data against any interference that goes beyond what is necessary in a democratic society to safeguard national security, defense and public security. If Kapstan receives a legally binding request to access Personal Data from a Public Authority, Kapstan shall, unless otherwise legally prohibited, promptly notify Customer including a summary of the nature of the request. To the extent Kapstan is prohibited by law from providing such notification, Kapstan shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a waiver of the prohibition to enable Kapstan to communicate as much information as possible, as soon as possible. Further, Kapstan shall challenge the request if, after careful assessment, it concludes that there are reasonable grounds to consider that the request is unlawful. Kapstan shall pursue possibilities of appeal. When challenging a request, Kapstan shall seek interim measures with a view to suspending the effects of the request until the competent judicial authority has decided on its merits. It shall not disclose the Personal Data requested until required to do so under the applicable procedural rules. Kapstan agrees it will provide the minimum amount of information permissible when responding to a request for disclosure, based on a reasonable interpretation of the request. Kapstan shall promptly notify Customer if Kapstan becomes aware of any direct access by a Public Authority to Personal Data and provide information available to Kapstan in this respect, to the extent permitted by law. For the avoidance of doubt, this DPA shall not require Kapstan to pursue action or inaction that could result in civil or criminal penalty for Kapstan such as contempt of court.

8.2. Sub-processors requirements. Kapstan shall ensure that Sub-processors involved in the Processing of Personal Data are subject to the relevant commitments regarding Government Access Requests in the Standard Contractual Clauses.


9. RETURN AND DELETION OF CUSTOMER DATA. Kapstan shall, upon Customer’s written request, promptly destroy or return any Personal Data after the end of the provision of Services, unless storage of the Personal Data is required by applicable law.


10. AUTHORIZED AFFILIATES.

10.1. Contractual Relationship. The parties acknowledge and agree that, by executing the Agreement, Customer enters into this DPA on behalf of itself and, as applicable, in the name and on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates, thereby establishing a separate DPA between Kapstan and each such Authorized Affiliate subject to the provisions of the Agreement and this section 10 and section 11. Each Authorized Affiliate agrees to be bound by the obligations under this DPA and, to the extent applicable, the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, an Authorized Affiliate is not and does not become a party to the Agreement, and is a party only to this DPA. All access to and use of the Services and Content by Authorized Affiliates must comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and any violation of the terms and conditions of the Agreement by an Authorized Affiliate shall be deemed a violation by Customer.

10.2. Communication. The Customer that is the contracting party to the Agreement shall remain responsible for coordinating all communication with Kapstan under this DPA and be entitled to make and receive any communication in relation to this DPA on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates.

10.3. Rights of Authorized Affiliates. Where an Authorized Affiliate becomes a party to this DPA with Kapstan, it shall to the extent required under applicable Data Protection Laws and Regulations be entitled to exercise the rights and seek remedies under this DPA, subject to the following:

10.3.1.  Except where applicable Data Protection Laws and Regulations require the Authorized Affiliate to exercise a right or seek any remedy under this DPA against Kapstan directly by itself, the parties agree that (i) solely the Customer that is the contracting party to the Agreement shall exercise any such right or seek any such remedy on behalf of the Authorized Affiliate, and (ii) the Customer that is the contracting party to the Agreement shall exercise any such rights under this DPA, not separately for each Authorized Affiliate individually, but in a combined manner for itself and all of its Authorized Affiliates together (as set forth, for example, in section 10.3.2, below).

10.3.2. The parties agree that the Customer that is the contracting party to the Agreement shall, when carrying out an On-Site Audit of the procedures relevant to the protection of Personal Data, take all reasonable measures to limit any impact on Kapstan and its Sub-Processors by combining, to the extent reasonably possible, several audit requests carried out on behalf of itself and all of its Authorized Affiliates in one single audit.


11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Each party’s and all of its Affiliates’ liability, taken together in the aggregate, arising out of or related to this DPA, and all DPAs between Authorized Affiliates and Kapstan, whether in contract, tort or under any other theory of liability, is subject to any limitations of liability set forth in the Agreement, and any reference in such section to the liability of a party means the aggregate liability of that party and all of its Affiliates under the Agreement and all DPAs together. For the avoidance of doubt, Kapstan’s and its Affiliates’ total liability for all claims from Customer and all of its Authorized Affiliates arising out of or related to the Agreement and all DPAs shall apply in the aggregate for all claims under both the Agreement and all DPAs established under the Agreement, including by Customer and all Authorized Affiliates, and, in particular, shall not be understood to apply individually and severally to Customer and/or to any Authorized Affiliate that is a contractual party to any such DPA.


12. EUROPE SPECIFIC PROVISIONS.

12.1. Definitions. For the purposes of this section 12 and Schedule 1 these terms shall be defined as follows:

“EU C-to-P Transfer Clauses” means Standard Contractual Clauses sections I, II, III and IV (as applicable) to the extent they reference Module Two (Controller-to-Processor).

“EU P-to-P Transfer Clauses” means Standard Contractual Clauses sections I, II III and IV (as applicable) to the extent they reference Module Three (Processor-to-Processor).

12.2. GDPR. Kapstan will Process Personal Data in accordance with the GDPR requirements directly applicable to Kapstan’s provision of its Services.

12.3. Customer Instructions. Kapstan shall inform Customer immediately (i) if, in its opinion, an instruction from Customer constitutes a breach of the GDPR and/or (ii) if Kapstan is unable to follow Customer’s instructions for the Processing of Personal Data.

12.4. Transfer mechanisms for data transfers. If, in the performance of the Services, Personal Data that is subject to the GDPR or any other law relating to the protection or privacy of individuals that applies in Europe is transferred out of Europe to countries which do not ensure an adequate level of data protection within the meaning of the Data Protection Laws and Regulations of Europe, the transfer mechanisms listed below shall apply to such transfers and can be directly enforced by the parties to the extent such transfers are subject to the Data Protection Laws and Regulations of Europe:

i) The EU C-to-P Transfer Clauses. Where Customer and/or its Authorized Affiliate is a Controller and a data exporter of Personal Data and Kapstan is a Processor and data importer in respect of that Personal Data, then the parties shall comply with the EU C-to-P Transfer Clauses, subject to the additional terms in section 1 of Schedule 1; and/or

ii) The EU P-to-P Transfer Clauses. Where Customer and/or its Authorized Affiliate is a Processor acting on behalf of a Controller and a data exporter of Personal Data and Kapstan is a Processor and data importer in respect of that Personal Data, the parties shall comply with the terms of the EU P-to-P Transfer Clauses, subject to the additional terms in sections 1 and 2 of Schedule 1.


12.5. Impact of local laws. As of the Effective Date, Kapstan has no reason to believe that the laws and practices in any third country of destination applicable to its Processing of the Personal Data, including any requirements to disclose Personal Data or measures authorising access by a Public Authority, prevent Kapstan from fulfilling its obligations under this DPA. If Kapstan reasonably believes that any existing or future enacted or enforceable laws and practices in the third country of destination applicable to its Processing of the Personal Data (“Local Laws”) prevent it from fulfilling its obligations under this DPA, it shall promptly notify Customer. In such a case, Kapstan shall use reasonable efforts to make available to the affected Customer a change in the Services or recommend a commercially reasonable change to Customer’s configuration or use of the Services to facilitate compliance with the Local Laws without unreasonably burdening Customer. If Kapstan is unable to make available such change promptly, Customer may terminate the applicable Order Form(s) and suspend the transfer of Personal Data in respect only to those Services which cannot be provided by Kapstan in accordance with the Local Laws by providing written notice in accordance with the “Notices” section of the Agreement. Customer shall receive a refund of any prepaid fees for the period following the effective date of termination for such terminated Services.
