The type of personal data that CSM may be required to process under this Agreement includes names, email addresses and/or any other personal information as may be agreed between the parties collected by or on behalf of the Client and in relation to the provision of the Services.

1.4 Each party acknowledges and agrees that each party has respective rights and obligations under applicable Data Protection Legislation. The CSM shall, without prejudice to its other rights or obligations, in respect of its processing of such personal data:
(a) process the data only to the extent, and in such a manner, as is necessary for the purposes of this Agreement and in accordance with Client’s lawful written instructions from time to time and CSM shall not process, nor permit the processing, of the data for any other purpose. If the CSM is unsure as to the parameters of the instructions issued by the Client and/or believes that Client’s instructions may conflict with the requirements of Data Protection Legislation or other Applicable Laws, CSM may notify the Client for clarification;
(b) ensure the reliability of all its personnel who have access to the data and shall in particular ensure that any person authorised to process data in connection with this Agreement is subject to a duty of confidentiality;
(c) subject to agreement on costs provide Client with reasonable co-operation and assistance in relation to Client’s obligations and rights under Data Protection Legislation including providing Client and relevant Regulators (as applicable) with all information and assistance reasonably necessary to investigate security breaches, carry out privacy impact assessments or otherwise to demonstrate compliance by the parties with Data Protection Legislation and assisting Client by using appropriate technical and organisational measures in responding to, and complying with, data subject requests.
(d) having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures, take such technical and organisational measures against the unauthorised or unlawful processing of data and against the accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to data, to ensure a level of security appropriate to: a) the harm that might result from such unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage of the data; and b) the nature of the data to be protected.
(e) at Client’s expense, without undue delay notify Client, and provide such co-operation, assistance and information as Client may reasonably require if the CSM:
(i) receives any complaint, notice or communication which relates directly or indirectly to the processing of the personal data under this Agreement or to either party’s compliance with Data Protection Legislation; and/or
(ii) becomes aware of any Security Breach;

(h) may engage a sub processor to process data (or otherwise sub-contract or outsource the processing of any data to a third party) (a “Sub processor”), provided that it:
(i) notifies Client of any new or replacement Sub processors. If Client objects to the appointment of a new or replacement Sub processor, it shall notify CSM within five (5) business days. Client shall be deemed to have accepted the Sub processor if CSM does not receive an objection with five (5) business days.

The parties agree that if the Model Clauses (or agreed alternative mechanism) cease to exist or are no longer considered by both parties to be a lawful method of transferring personal data outside of the EEA, the parties shall have a good faith discussion and agree an alternative lawful transfer mechanism and CSM may cease or procure that the relevant third party cease the processing of personal data until such time as the parties have agreed an alternative transfer mechanism to enable the personal data to be transferred outside of the EEA in a compliant manner.
1.5 Client agrees to comply with its obligations under applicable Data Protection Legislation and shall in particular ensure that, as a condition of this Agreement, the transfer of personal data from the Client to CSM shall not cause CSM to be in breach of Data Protection Legislation or breach the rights of any data subject. Client shall indemnify the CSM on demand against all claims, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and losses (including all interest, penalties and legal costs (calculated on a full indemnity basis) and all other professional costs and expenses) suffered or incurred by CSM arising out of Client’s breach of this paragraph 1.5 (“Claims”).
