2. Preamble
2.1 These Contractual Clauses (the Clauses) set out the rights and obligations of the Data Controller and the Data Processor, when processing personal data on behalf of the Data Controller.
2.2 The Clauses have been designed to ensure the parties’ compliance with Article 28(3) of Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation).
2.3 In the context of the provision of Cooperation Agreement granting the Controller access to the Ziik platform, the Data Processor will process personal data on behalf of the Data Controller in accordance with the Clauses.
2.4 The Clauses shall take priority over any similar provisions contained in other agreements between the parties.
2.5 Four appendices are attached to the Clauses and form an integral part of the Clause.
2.6 Appendix A contains details about the processing of personal data, including the purpose and nature of the processing, type of personal data, categories of data subject and duration of the processing.
2.7 Appendix B contains the Data Controller’s conditions for the Data Processor’s use of sub-processors and a list of sub-processors authorised by the Data Controller.
2.8 Appendix C contains the Data Controller’s instructions with regards to the processing of personal data, the minimum security measures to be implemented by the Data Processor and how audits of the Data Processor and any sub-processors are to be performed.
2.9 The Clauses along with appendices shall be retained in writing, including electronically, by both parties
2.10 The Clauses shall not exempt the Data Processor from obligations to which the Data Processor is subject pursuant to the General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR) or other legislation.
3. The rights and obligations of The Data Controller
3.1 The Data Controller is responsible for ensuring that the processing of personal data takes place in compliance with the GDPR (see Article 24 GDPR), the applicable EU or Member State data protection provisions and the Clauses.
3.2 The Data Controller has the right and obligation to make decisions about the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.
3.3 The Data Controller shall be responsible, among others, for ensuring that the processing of personal data, which the data processor is instructed to perform, has a legal basis.
4. The Data Processor acts according to instructions
4.1 The Data Processor shall process personal data only on documented instructions from the Data Controller, unless required to do so by Union or Member State law to which the processor is subject. Such instructions shall be specified in appendices A and C. Subsequent instructions can also be given by the Data Controller throughout the duration of the processing of personal data, but such instructions shall always be documented and kept in writing, including electronically, in connection with the Clauses.
4.2 The Data Processor shall immediately inform the Data Controller if instructions given by the Data Controller, in the opinion of the Data Processor, contravene the GDPR or the applicable EU or Member State data protection provisions.
5. Confidentiality
5.1 The Data Processor shall only grant access to the personal data being processed on behalf of the Data Controller to persons under the Data Processor’s authority who have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality and only on a need to know basis. The list of persons to whom access has been granted shall be kept under periodic review. On the basis of this review, such access to personal data can be withdrawn, if access is no longer necessary, and personal data shall consequently not be accessible anymore to those persons.
5.2 The Data Processor shall at the request of the Data Controller demonstrate that the concerned persons under the Data Processor’s authority are subject to the above mentioned confidentiality.
6. Security of processing
6.1 Article 32 GDPR stipulates that, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the Data Controller and Data Processor shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.
The Data Controller shall evaluate the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons inherent in the processing and implement measures to mitigate those risks. Depending on their relevance, the measures may include the following:
6.1.1 Pseudonymisation and encryption of personal data;
6.1.2 the ability to ensure ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of processing systems and services;
6.1.3 the ability to restore the availability and access to personal data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident;
6.1.4 a process for regularly testing, assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational measures for ensuring the security of the processing.
6.2 If the transfer of personal data to third countries outside the EU / EEA is carried out in connection with the Data Processor's transfer to sub-processors, the Data Processor is by the provisions of the agreement authorized by the Data Controller to enter into the standard contractual provisions adopted by the European Commission with the Data Processor's sub- processors, provided that all rules of the Danish Data Protection Law for transmission and processing are otherwise complied with. If the data controller itself is data processor, and the data processor is a sub-data processor of the data in relation to the data controller's ultimate contractual partner(s), the Data Controller must obtain authorization from the ultimate contracting party of the Data Processor in the the standard contract terms.
6.3 If the transfer of personal data to third countries outside the EU / EEA is carried out in connection with the Data Processor's transfer to independent data controllers, the Data Processor is by the provisions of the agreement authorized by the Data Controller to enter into the standard contractual provisions adopted by the European Commission with independent data controllers, provided that all rules of the Data Protection legislation for transmission and processing are otherwise complied with. If the data controller itself is data processor, and the data processor is a sub-data processor of the data in relation to the data controller's ultimate contractual partner(s), the Data Controller must obtain authorization from the ultimate contracting party of the Data Processor in the the standard contract terms.
If subsequently – in the assessment of the Data Controller – mitigation of the identified risks require further measures to be implemented by the Data Processor, than those already implemented by the Data Processor pursuant to Article 32 GDPR, the Data Controller shall specify these additional measures to be implemented in Appendix C.
7. Use of sub-processors
7.1 The Data Processor shall meet the requirements specified in Article 28(2) and (4) GDPR in order to engage another processor (a sub-processor).
7.2 The Data Processor has the Data Controller’s general authorisation for the engagement of sub-processors. The Data Processor shall inform in writing the Data Controller of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of sub- processors at least 30 days in advance, thereby giving the Data Controller the opportunity to object to such changes prior to the engagement of the concerned sub-processor(s). Longer time periods of prior notice for specific sub-processing services can be provided in Appendix B. The list of sub-processors already authorised by the Data Controller can be found in Appendix B.
7.3 Where the Data Processor engages a sub-processor for carrying out specific processing activities on behalf of the Data Controller, the same data protection obligations as set out in the Clauses shall be imposed on that sub-processor by way of a contract or other legal act under EU or Member State law, in particular providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that the processing will meet the requirements of the Clauses and the GDPR.
The Data Processor shall therefore be responsible for requiring that the sub-processor at least complies with the obligations to which the Data Processor is subject pursuant to the Clauses and the GDPR.
7.4 A copy of such a sub-processor agreement and subsequent amendments shall – at the Data Controller’s request – be submitted to the Data Controller, thereby giving the Data Controller the opportunity to ensure that the same data protection obligations as set out in the Clauses are imposed on the sub-processor. Clauses on business related issues that do not affect the legal data protection content of the sub-processor agreement, shall not require submission to the Data Controller.
7.5 If the sub-processor does not fulfil his data protection obligations, the Data Processor shall remain fully liable to the Data Controller as regards the fulfilment of the obligations of the sub-processor. This does not affect the rights of the data subjects under the GDPR – in particular those foreseen in Articles 79 and 82 GDPR – against the Data Controller and the Data Processor, including the sub-processor.
8. Transfer of data to third countries or international organisations
8.1 Any transfer of personal data to third countries or international organisations by the Data Processor shall only occur on the basis of documented instructions from the Data Controller and shall always take place in compliance with Chapter V GDPR.
8.2 In case transfers to third countries or international organisations, which the Data Processor has not been instructed to perform by the Data Controller, is required under EU or Member State law to which the Data Processor is subject, the Data Processor shall inform the Data Controller of that legal requirement prior to processing unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest.
8.3 Without documented instructions from the Data Controller, the Data Processor therefore cannot within the framework of the Clauses:
8.3.1 transfer personal data to a data controller or a data processor in a third country or in an international organization
8.3.2 transfer the processing of personal data to a sub-processor in a third country
8.3.3 have the personal data processed by the data processor in a third country
8.4 The Data Controller’s instructions regarding the transfer of personal data to a third country including, if applicable, the transfer tool under Chapter V GDPR on which they are based, shall be set out in Appendix C.6.
8.5 The Clauses shall not be confused with standard data protection clauses within the meaning of Article 46(2)(c) and (d) GDPR, and the Clauses cannot be relied upon by the parties as a transfer tool under Chapter V GDPR unless such standard contractual clauses are attached in Appendix E.
9. Assistance to the Data Controller

10.2 The Data Processor’s notification to the Data Controller shall, if possible, take place within immediately and no later than 24 hours after the data processor has become aware of the breach of the personal data security after the Data Processor has become aware of the personal data breach to enable the Data Controller to comply with the Data Controller's obligation to notify the personal data breach to the supervisory authority, cf. Article 33 GDPR.
10.3 In accordance with Clause 9.2.1, the Data Processor shall assist the Data Controller in notifying the personal data breach to the competent supervisory authority, meaning that the Data Processor is required to assist in obtaining the information listed below which, pursuant to Article 33(3)GDPR, shall be stated in the Data Controller’s notification to the competent supervisory authority:
10.3.1 The nature of the personal data including where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects concerned and the categories and approximate number of personal data records concerned;
10.3.2 the likely consequences of the personal data breach;
10.3.3 the measures taken or proposed to be taken by the Data Controller to address the personal data breach, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.
10.4 The parties shall define in Appendix C all the elements to be provided by the Data Processor when assisting the Data Controller in the notification of a personal data breach to the competent supervisory authority.
11. Erasure and return of data
11.1 On termination of the provision of personal data processing services, the Data Processor shall be under obligation to delete all personal data processed on behalf of the Data Controller and certify to the data controller that it has done so so unless Union or Member State law requires storage of the personal data.
12. Audit and inspection
12.1 The Data Processor shall make available to the Data Controller all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations laid down in Article 28 and the Clauses and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by the Data Controller or another auditor mandated by the Data Controller.
12.2 Procedures applicable to the Data Controller’s audits, including inspections, of the Data Processor and sub-processors are specified in C.7 and C.8.
12.3 The Data Processor shall be required to provide the supervisory authorities, which pursuant to applicable legislation have access to the Data Controller’s and Data Processor’s facilities, or representatives acting on behalf of such supervisory authorities, with access to the Data Processor’s physical facilities on presentation of appropriate identification.
13. The parties’ agreement on other terms
13.1 The parties may agree other clauses concerning the provision of the personal data processing service specifying e.g. liability, as long as they do not contradict directly or indirectly the Clauses or prejudice the fundamental rights or freedoms of the data subject and the protection afforded by the GDPR.
14. Commencement and termination
14.1 The Clauses are binding upon the Parties.
14.2 Both parties shall be entitled to require the Clauses renegotiated if changes to the law or inexpediency of the Clauses should give rise to such renegotiation.
14.3 The Clauses shall apply for the duration of the provision of personal data processing services. For the duration of the provision of personal data processing services, the Clauses cannot be terminated unless other Clauses governing the provision of personal data processing services have been agreed between the parties.
14.4 If the provision of personal data processing services is terminated, and the personal data is deleted or returned to the data controller pursuant to Clause 11.1 and Appendix C.4, the Clauses may be terminated by written notice by either Party.
14.5 The Data Processor is bound by the Data Processor Agreement without the Parties' signatures.
