1. INDEMNITY; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

1. In the event a Data Subject brings a claim against either or both parties (under Article 79 of the GDPR or any other cause of action) for alleged infringement of the GDPR, each party shall at its own expense control the defense of any such claim (or its portion of the defense) and remain solely responsible for any costs, expenses and liabilities related thereto, including legal fees or any amounts awarded against it by a court or made by it in settlement; provided however, that where each party is responsible for a portion of the damages suffered by a Data Subject for the same incident or series of incidents, and the Data Subject has recovered full compensation from only one party (the “Compensating Party”) pursuant to Article 82(4) of the GDPR, then the Compensating Party shall be entitled to claim back from the other party that portion of the compensation corresponding to the damage caused by such other party.
2. Limitation of Liability.For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth in this Section 12, neither party shall be liable to the other party resulting from such other party’s infringement of the GDPR. By way of example and not of limitation, in the event a Supervisory Authority imposes any fines, penalties or other sanctions on or against a party (the “Infringing Party”), the non-infringing party shall not indemnify or otherwise hold the Infringing Party harmless and the Infringing Party shall not seek indemnification, contribution or other recovery from the non-infringing party in connection therewith.

1. CALIFORNIA SPECIFIC PROVISIONS

This Section 13 is applicable to California businesses only and is intended to provide guidance on TailorM’s compliance with Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et. seq., otherwise known as the “California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018” or “CCPA” in the performance of services. Capitalized terms used throughout this Section but undefined elsewhere shall have their respect meanings under CCPA. In performing the services, TailorM operates as Customer’s service provider under the CCPA. As Customer’s service provider, TailorM processes certain personal information, in accordance with Customer’s instructions, to fulfill a legitimate business purpose for Customer. The business purpose(s) for which Customer has retained TailorM for include any one or more of the following activities: maintaining or servicing TailorM accounts, providing customer service in connection with the Service, processing or fulfilling orders and transactions involving your website patrons, providing advertising or marketing services through the TailorM proprietary tools, providing analytic services, or providing similar services on Customer’s behalf. Aside from fulfilling the business purpose for Customer, TailorM does not disclose or resell Personal Information for any other commercial purpose, except in certain cases where the personal information has been pseudonymized or is considered aggregate consumer information. The CCPA provides California Consumers (“Consumers”) the right to request that TailorM delete the Consumer’s personal information under certain conditions. When TailorM receives a request to delete personal information from a Consumer, TailorM will verify the identity of the Consumer and then, as applicable, direct its service providers to delete the Consumer’s personal information approved for deletion. Accordingly, in the event that Customer receives a verifiable Consumer request to delete personal information held by TailorM (as determined in Customer’s sole discretion), TailorM shall fulfill such request without delay, provided Customer makes such request using the form provided by TailorM. TailorM shall not respond to any other request made in any other manner by Customer so as to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and security of the personal information it processes.

1. EUROPEAN SPECIFIC PROVISIONS

1. Data Protection Impact Assessment.Taking into account the nature of the Processing, upon Customer’s reasonable request and at Customer’s cost, TailorM shall provide Customer with reasonable cooperation and assistance needed to fulfill Customer’s obligations under the GDPR to carry out a data protection impact assessment related to Customer’s use of the Service, to the extent Customer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information, and to the extent such information is available to TailorM. TailorM shall provide reasonable assistance to Customer in the cooperation or prior consultation with the Supervisory Authority in the performance of its tasks related to this Section, to the extent required under the GDPR and taking into account the nature of the Processing and the information available to TailorM.
2. Standard Contractual Clauses.The Standard Contractual Clauses apply to: (a) the legal entity that has executed the Standard Contractual Clauses as the data exporter and its Authorized Affiliates and, (b) the Affiliates of Customer established within the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, which have signed an applicable Attachment for the Service. For the purpose of the Standard Contractual Clauses, the aforementioned entities shall be deemed “data exporters.”

1. ORDER OF PRECEDENCE

This DPA is incorporated into and forms part of the Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Agreement and this DPA, the terms of this DPA will control. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the DPA and Standard Contractual Clauses, the Standard Contractual Clauses will prevail.
