7. DATA TRANSFERS

For transfers of European Personal Data to Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited for processing by Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited in a jurisdiction other than a jurisdiction in the EU, the EEA, or the European Commission-approved countries providing ‘adequate’ data protection, Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited agrees it will

1. provide at least the same level of privacy protection for European Personal Data as required under the U.S.-EU and U.S.-Swiss Privacy Shield frameworks; or
2. use the form of the Controller-to-Processor SCCs available at https://business.Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited.com/c/15/10/eu-scc.

If data transfers under Section 7 of this DPA rely on Controller-to-Processor SCCs to enable the lawful transfer of European Personal Data, as set forth in the preceding sentence, the parties agree that data subjects for whom a Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited entity processes European Personal Data are third-party beneficiaries under the Controller-to-Processor SCCs. If Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited is unable or becomes unable to comply with these requirements, then European Personal Data will be processed and used exclusively within the territory of a member state of the European Union and any movement of European Personal Data to a non-EU country requires the prior written consent of Customer. Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited shall promptly notify Customer of any inability by Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited to comply with the provisions of this Section 7.

8. DATA RETURN AND DELETION

The parties agree that on the termination of the data processing services or upon Customer’s reasonable request, Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited shall, and shall cause any Subprocessors to, at the choice of Customer, return all the Customer Personal Data and copies of such data to Customer or securely destroy them and demonstrate to the satisfaction of Customer that it has taken such measures, unless Data Protection Requirements prevent Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited from returning or destroying all or part of the Customer Personal Data disclosed. In such case, Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited agrees to preserve the confidentiality of the Customer Personal Data retained by it and that it will only actively process such Customer Personal Data after such date in order to comply with applicable laws. For clarity, Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited may continue to process Customer Personal Data that has been aggregated in a manner that does not identify individuals or customers to improve Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited’s systems and services.

9. CONTROLLER-TO-CONTROLLER SCENARIOS

Each party will, to the extent that it, along with the other party, acts as data controller, as the term is defined in applicable Data Protection Requirements, with respect to Personal Data, reasonably cooperate with the other party to enable the exercise of data protection rights as set forth in the General Data Protection Regulation and in other Data Protection Requirements. Where both parties each act as data controller with respect to Personal Data, and the transfer of data between the parties results in a transfer of European Personal Data to a jurisdiction other than a jurisdiction in the EU, the EEA, or the European Commission-approved countries providing ‘adequate’ data protection, each party agrees it will

1. provide at least the same level of privacy protection for European Personal Data as required under the US-EU and US-Swiss Privacy Shield frameworks; or
2. use the Controller-to-Controller SCCs, which are incorporated herein by reference.

If data transfers under this DPA rely on Controller-to-Controller SCCs to enable the lawful transfer of Personal Data, as set forth in the preceding sentence, the parties agree that the following terms apply:

1. Data subjects for whom a Customer processes European Personal Data are third-party beneficiaries under the Controller-to-Controller SCCs;
2. Schedule A to this DPA shall apply as Annex B of the Controller-to-Controller SCCs; and
3. for purpose of Section II(h), the data importer will process the European Personal Data, at its option, in accordance with “the relevant provisions of any Commission decision pursuant to Article 25(6) of Directive 95/46/EC, where the data importer complies with the relevant provisions of such an authorisation or decision and is based in a country to which such an authorisation or decision pertains, but is not covered by such authorisation or decision for the purposes of the transfer(s) of the personal data.” The parties acknowledge and agree that each is acting independently as Data Controller with respect of Personal Information and the parties are not joint controllers as defined in the General Data Protection Regulation.

10. THIRD PARTY DATA PROCESSORS

Customer acknowledges that in the provision of some services (such as CRMs), Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited, on receipt of instructions from Customer, may transfer Customer Personal Data to and otherwise interact with third party data processors. Customer agrees that if and to the extent such transfers occur, Customer is responsible for entering into separate contractual arrangements with such third party data processors binding them to comply with obligations in accordance with Data Protection Requirements. For avoidance of doubt, such third party data processors are not Subprocessors.

11. TERM

This DPA shall remain in effect as long as Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited carries out Personal Data processing operations on behalf of Customer or until the termination of the Whitmore Jones (Chichester) Limited Contract (and all Personal Data has been returned or deleted in accordance with Section 8 above).

12. GOVERNING LAW, JURISDICTION, AND VENUE

Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, this DPA shall be governed by the laws of United Kingdom, and any action or proceeding related to this DPA (including those arising from non contractual disputes or claims) will be brought in London, United Kingdom.
