The following Contractual Clauses (the Clauses) apply in order to meet the requirements of the GDPR and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.

  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. 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 regards to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation).
  3. In the context of the provision of payroll and accounting services the data processor will process personal data on behalf of the data controller in accordance with the Clauses.
  4. The Clauses shall take priority over any similar provisions contained in other agreements between the parties.
  5. Three appendixes are attached and form an integral part of the Clauses.
  6. The Agreement contains the data controller’s instructions with regards to the processing of personal data and details about the processing of personal Version 1.1 (01/03/2022) data, including the purpose and nature of the processing, type of personal data, categories of data subject and duration of the processing.
  7. Appendix A contains the data controller’s conditions for the data processor’s use of sub-processors and a list of sub-processors authorized by the data controller.
  8. The Clauses along with appendices shall be retained in writing, including electronically, by both parties.
  9. 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.

  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 [1] data protection provisions and the Clauses.
  2. The data controller has the right and obligation to make decisions about the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.
    The data controller shall be responsible, among other, for ensuring that the processing of personal data, which the data processor is instructed to perform, has a legal basis [1] References to ”Member States” made throughout the Clauses shall be understood as references to “EEA Member States”.

  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 are specified in The Agreement. 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.
  2. The data processor shall immediately inform the data controller if instructions given by the data controller, in the opinion of the data processor, Version 1.1 (01/03/2022) contravene the GDPR or the applicable EU or Member State data protection provisions.

  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.
  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 abovementioned confidentiality.

  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 organizational 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:
      a. Pseudonymization and encryption of personal data;
      b. the ability to ensure ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of processing systems and services;
      c. the ability to restore the availability and access to personal data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident;
      d. a process for regularly testing, assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organizational measures for ensuring the security of the processing.
  2. According to Article 32 GDPR, the data processor shall also – independently from the data controller – evaluate the risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons inherent in the processing and implement measures to mitigate those risks. To this effect, the data controller shall provide the data processor with all information necessary to identify and evaluate such risks.
  3. Furthermore, the data processor shall assist the data controller in ensuring compliance with the data controller’s obligations pursuant to Articles 32 GDPR, by inter alia providing the data controller with information concerning the technical and organizational measures already implemented by the data processor pursuant to Article 32 GDPR along with all other information necessary for the data controller to comply with the data controller’s obligation under Article 32 GDPR.If subsequently – in the assessment of the data controller – mitigation of the identified risks requires 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.

  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).
  2. The data processor shall therefore not engage another processor (subprocessor) for the fulfilment of the Clauses without the prior general written authorization of the data controller.
  3. The data processor has the data controller’s general authorization 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). The list of sub-processors already authorized by the data controller can be found in Appendix B.
  4. 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 subprocessor 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 organizational 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 subprocessor at least complies with the obligations to which the data processor is subject pursuant to the Clauses and the GDPR.
  5. 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 subprocessor. 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.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.

  1. Any transfer of personal data to third countries or international organizations by the data processor shall only occur based on documented instructions from the data controller and shall always take place in compliance with Chapter V GDPR.

    a. transfer personal data to a data controller or a data processor in a third country or in an international organization
    b. transfer the processing of personal data to a sub-processor in a third country c. have the personal data processed in by the data processor in a third country
  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, are set out in Appendix A
  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.

  1. Taking into account the nature of the processing, the data processor shall assist the data controller by appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as this is possible, in the fulfilment of the data controller’s obligations to respond to requests for exercising the data subject’s rights laid down in Chapter III GDPR.

      a. The data controller’s obligation to without undue delay and, where feasible, not later than 72 hours after having become aware of it, notify the personal data breach to the competent national supervisory authority, unless the personal data breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons;
      b. the data controller’s obligation to communicate without undue delay the personal data breach to the data subject, when the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons;
      c. the data controller’s obligation to carry out an assessment of the impact of the envisaged processing operations on the protection of personal data (a data protection impact assessment);
      d. the data controller’s obligation to consult the competent national supervisory authority, prior to processing where a data protection impact assessment indicates that the processing would result in a high risk in the absence of measures taken by the data controller to mitigate the risk.

    In the Appendix to The Agreement, the parties have defined the appropriate technical and organizational measures by which the data processor is required to assist the data controller as well as the scope and the extent of the assistance required. This applies to the obligations foreseen in Clause 9.1. and 9.2.
