Data Processing Agreement
General Data Protection Regulation Data Processing Addendum for Services Agreement
(European Economic Area, UK, & Switzerland)
This Data Processing Addendum (“DPA”) is incorporated into, and is subject to the terms and conditions of, the Agreement between Pop, Inc. (“Pop”, “we” or “us”) and our clients who have contracted with Pop to access and use WordFly, including each of their authorized users (collectively, “Clients”, "users", or "you"). The parties agree that for the purposes of this Addendum, Pop is the Data Processor, and Client is the Data Controller and this Addendum governs Pop’s Processing of Personal Data, as all such capitalized terms are defined in Regulation (EU) 2016/679, referred to as the “General Data Protection Regulation” (“GDPR”). For Clients in the United Kingdom, references to GDPR shall be to the UK GDPR. This Addendum applies solely to the extent Personal Data relates to natural persons in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland in connection with Pop’s provision of the services for Client as described in the Agreement (“Services”). Except as expressly stated otherwise, in the event of a conflict between the terms of the Agreement and the terms of this Addendum, the terms of this Addendum will control. The Addendum will be effective on the last signature date set forth below. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum have the meanings given to them in the GDPR.
Applicable Law. Client represents and warrants that it has collected Personal Data it provides to Pop in accordance with all applicable law, including the GDPR.
Instructions from the Controller. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, Pop will only Process Personal Data on documented instructions from Client, including with regard to transfers of Personal Data to a third country or an international organization, unless required to do so by European Union, United Kingdom or Member State law to which Pop is subject. Pop will promptly inform Client if following Client instructions would result in a violation of applicable data protection law or where Pop must disclose Personal Data in response to a legal obligation (unless the legal obligation prohibits Pop from making such disclosure).
Confidentiality. Pop will restrict access to Personal Data to those authorized persons who need such information to provide the Services. Pop will ensure such authorized persons are obligated to maintain the confidentiality of any Personal Data.
Security. Pop will implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the Personal Data provided by Client and Processed by Pop.
Sub-processors. Client agrees that Pop may engage Sub-processors to Process Personal Data in connection with providing the Services consistent with the Agreement. Pop will make a list of such Sub- processors available to Client upon request, and thereafter will notify Client of any changes to such list. Client may reasonably object to Pop’s use of a Sub-processor by notifying Pop promptly in writing within ten (10) business days after receipt of Pop’s Sub-processor list or update thereto. Such notice will explain the reasonable grounds for the objection. In the event Client objects to a new Sub-processor, Pop will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Client a change in the Services or recommend a commercially reasonable change to Client’s configuration or use of the Services to avoid Processing of Personal Data by the objected-to new Sub-processor. If Pop is unable to make available such change within thirty (30) days, either party may terminate without penalty the Agreement by providing written notice to the other party. Pop will refund Client any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of the Agreement following the effective date of termination, without imposing a penalty for such termination on Client.
Sub-processor Obligations. Where Pop engages a Sub-processor for carrying out specific 1 Processing activities on behalf of Client, the same data protection obligations as set out in this Addendum will be imposed on that Sub-processor by way of a contract or other legal act under EU or United Kingdom 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 EU or United Kingdom data protection law (as appropriate). Where that Sub-processor fails to fulfill its data protection obligations, Pop will remain fully liable to the Client for the performance of that Sub-processor’s obligations.
Access Requests. Pop has implemented and will maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures needed to enable Client to respond to requests from Data Subjects to access, correct, transmit, limit processing of, or delete any relevant Personal Data held by Pop.
Recordkeeping. Upon a request issued by a supervisory authority for records regarding Personal Data, Pop will cooperate to provide the supervisory authority with records related to Processing activities performed on Client’s behalf, including information on the categories of Personal Data Processed and the purposes of the Processing, the use of service providers with respect to such Processing, any data disclosures or transfers to third parties and a general description of technical and organizational measures to protect the security of such data.
Assistance. Pop will assist Client: (1) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with ensuring Client’s compliance with Articles 32 to 36 of the GDPR taking into account the nature of Processing and the information available to Pop, and (2) with the fulfillment of Client’s obligation to respond to requests for exercising a Data Subject’s rights in Chapter III of the GDPR by appropriate technical and organisational measures, insofar as this is possible. Pop reserves the right to charge Client for its reasonable costs in collecting and preparing Personal Data for transfer and for any special arrangements for making the transfer.
International Transfers. Client authorizes Pop to transfer, store or Process Personal Data in the United States or any other country in which Pop or its Sub-processors maintain servers or other facilities. Client appoints Pop to perform any such transfer of Personal Data to any such country and to store and Process Personal Data in order to provide the Services. Pop will conduct all such activity in compliance with the Agreement, this Addendum, applicable law and Client instructions.
Data center locations. Pop offices and servers are located in the USA. Client acknowledges that Pop may transfer and process Personal Data to and in the United States and anywhere else in the world where Pop, its Affiliates or its Sub-processors maintain data processing operations. Pop shall always ensure that such transfers are made in compliance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws and this DPA.
European, UK, and Swiss Data transfers. To the extent that Pop is a recipient of Personal Data protected by EU or United Kingdom Data Protection Laws ("EU Data") in a country outside of Europe that is not recognized as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data (as described in applicable EU Data Protection Law), the parties agree to the following:
(a) SCCs: Pop agrees to abide by and process EU Data in compliance with the SCCs in the form set out in Annex C. For the purposes of the descriptions in the SCCs, Pop agrees that it is the "data importer" and Client is the "data exporter" (notwithstanding that Client may itself be an entity located outside Europe).
(b) Data Privacy Framework: Pop has certified its compliance to the EU-U.S Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) Principles (collectively, the “DPF Principles”) with the US Department of Commerce (the “Department”) in respect of the Processing of Personal Information received from the European Economic Area, UK or Switzerland. Where required by Applicable Law and at Client’s written request, Pop will provide commercially reasonable assistance to Client in responding to requests from the Department or other applicable data protection regulators in the US, UK, the European Economic Area, and Switzerland related to compliance with the DPF Principles. Upon request of the Department, Pop may disclose the terms of this Addendum to the Department.
(c) Alternative transfer mechanism. To the extent Pop adopts an alternative data export mechanism (including any new version of or successor to the SCCs or Data Privacy Framework) for the transfer of EU Data not described in this DPA ("Alternative Transfer Mechanism"), the Alternative Transfer Mechanism shall apply instead of the transfer mechanisms described in this DPA (but only to the extent such Alternative Transfer Mechanism complies with applicable EU or United Kingdom Data Protection Law and extends to the countries to which EU Data is transferred). In addition, if and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction or supervisory authority orders (for whatever reason) that the measures described in this DPA cannot be relied on to lawfully transfer EU Data (within the meaning of applicable EU Data Protection Law), Pop may implement any additional measures or safeguards that may be reasonably required to enable the lawful transfer of EU Data, including the safeguards set forth below:
Pop undertakes to adopt supplementary measures to protect the EU Data in accordance with the requirements of EU Data Protection Law, including by implementing appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect personal data against any interference that goes beyond what is necessary in a democratic society to safeguard national security, defence and public security.
In the event that Pop receives a legally binding request for access to the EU Data by a public authority, Pop will:
promptly notify the data exporter of such request to enable the data exporter to intervene and seek relief from such disclosure, unless Pop is otherwise prohibited from providing such notice, such as a prohibition under criminal law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation. If Pop is so prohibited:
2.1.1 It will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the right to waive this prohibition in order to communicate as much information as it can and as soon as possible, and be able to demonstrate that it did so.
2.1.2 In the event that, despite having used its reasonable best efforts, Pop is not permitted to notify the data exporter, it will make available on an annual basis general information on the requests it received to the data exporter and/or the competent supervisory authority of the data exporter.
2.1.3 Oppose any such request for access and contest its legal validity to the extent legally permitted under applicable law.
not make any disclosures of the EU Data to any public authority that are determined to be massive, disproportionate and indiscriminate in a manner that it would go beyond what is necessary in a democratic society; and
upon request from the data exporter, provide general information on the requests from public authorities it received in the preceding 12 month period relating to EU Data.
Deletion or Return. At the choice of the Client, Pop will delete or return to Client all copies of Personal Data in its possession or control after the end of the provision of Services related to Processing, unless applicable law requires retention of the Personal Data. Pop will relay Client’s instructions with respect to deleting or returning Personal Data to all Sub-processors.
Breach Notification. After becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach, Pop will notify Client without undue delay of: (a) the nature of the Personal Data Breach; (b) the number and categories of Data Subjects and data records affected; and (c) the name and contact details for the relevant contact person at Pop.
Audits. Upon request, Pop will make available to Client all information necessary, and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by Client or another auditor mandated by Client, to demonstrate compliance with Article 28 of the GDPR. For clarity, such audits or inspections are limited to Pop’s Processing of Personal Data only, not any other aspect of Pop’s business or information systems. If Client requires Pop to contribute to audits or inspections that are necessary to demonstrate compliance, Client will provide Pop with written notice at least 60 days in advance of such audit or inspection. Such written notice will specify the things, people, places or documents to be made available. Such written notice, and anything produced in response to it (including any derivative work product such as notes of interviews), will be considered Pop’s Confidential Information and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, will remain Confidential Information in perpetuity or the longest time allowable by applicable law after termination of the Agreement. Such materials and derivative work product produced in response to Client’s request will not be disclosed to anyone without the prior written permission of Pop unless such disclosure is required by applicable law. If disclosure is required by applicable law, Client will give Pop prompt written notice of that requirement and an opportunity to obtain a protective order to prohibit or restrict such disclosure except to the extent such notice is prohibited by applicable law or order of a court or governmental agency. Client will make every effort to cooperate with Pop to schedule audits or inspections at times that are convenient to Pop. If, after reviewing Pop’s response to Client’s audit or inspection request, Client requires additional audits or inspections, Client acknowledges and agrees that it will be solely responsible for all costs incurred in relation to such additional audits or inspections.

Clause 6
Liability
The parties agree that any data subject, who has suffered damage as a result of any breach of the obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 by any party or subprocessor is entitled to receive compensation from the data exporter for the damage suffered.
If a data subject is not able to bring a claim for compensation in accordance with paragraph 1 against the data exporter, arising out of a breach by the data importer or his subprocessor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11, because the data exporter has factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or has become insolvent, the data importer agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data importer as if it were the data exporter, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract of by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity. The data importer may not rely on a breach by a subprocessor of its obligations in order to avoid its own liabilities.
If a data subject is not able to bring a claim against the data exporter or the data importer referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2, arising out of a breach by the subprocessor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 because both the data exporter and the data importer have factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent, the subprocessor agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data subprocessor with regard to its own processing operations under the Clauses as if it were the data exporter or the data importer, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity. The liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.
Clause 7
Mediation and jurisdiction
The data importer agrees that if the data subject invokes against it third-party beneficiary rights and/or claims compensation for damages under the Clauses, the data importer will accept the decision of the data subject:
to refer the dispute to mediation, by an independent person or, where applicable, by the supervisory authority;
to refer the dispute to the courts in the Member State in which the data exporter is established.
The parties agree that the choice made by the data subject will not prejudice its substantive or procedural rights to seek remedies in accordance with other provisions of national or international law.
Clause 8
Cooperation with supervisory authorities
The data exporter agrees to deposit a copy of this contract with the supervisory authority if it so requests or if such deposit is required under the Data Protection Law.
The parties agree that the supervisory authority has the right to conduct an audit of the data importer, and of any subprocessor, which has the same scope and is subject to the same conditions as would apply to an audit of the data exporter under the Data Protection Law.
The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter about the existence of legislation applicable to it or any subprocessor preventing the conduct of an audit of the data importer, or any subprocessor, pursuant to paragraph 2. In such a case the data exporter shall be entitled to take the measures foreseen in Clause 5 (b).
Clause 9
Governing Law
The Clauses shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.
Clause 10
Variation of the contract
The parties undertake not to vary or modify the Clauses. This does not preclude the parties from adding clauses on business related issues where required as long as they do not contradict the Clause.
Clause 11
Subprocessing
The data importer shall not subcontract any of its processing operations performed on behalf of the data exporter under the Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the subprocessor which imposes the same obligations on the subprocessor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the subprocessor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the subprocessor's obligations under such agreement.
The prior written contract between the data importer and the subprocessor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in paragraph 1 of Clause 6 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.
The provisions relating to data protection aspects for subprocessing of the contract referred to in paragraph 1 shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.
The data exporter shall keep a list of subprocessing agreements concluded under the Clauses and notified by the data importer pursuant to Clause 5 (j), which shall be updated at least once a year. The list shall be available to the data exporter's data protection supervisory authority.
Clause 12
Obligation after the termination of personal data processing services
The parties agree that on the termination of the provision of data processing services, the data importer and the subprocessor shall, at the choice of the data exporter, return all the personal data transferred and the copies thereof to the data exporter or shall destroy all the personal data and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, unless legislation imposed upon the data importer prevents it from returning or destroying all or part of the personal data transferred. In that case, the data importer warrants that it will guarantee the confidentiality of the personal data transferred and will not actively process the personal data transferred anymore.
The data importer and the subprocessor warrant that upon request of the data exporter and/or of the supervisory authority, it will submit its data processing facilities for an audit of the measures referred to in paragraph 1.

Description of the technical and organisational security measures implemented by the data importer in accordance with Clauses 4(d) and 5(c) (or document/legislation attached):
Please see Annex B – Security Measures
APPENDIX 3 TO STANDARD CONTRACTUAL CLAUSES
The parties acknowledge that Clause 10 of the Clauses permits them to include additional business-related terms provided they do not contradict with the Clauses. Accordingly, this Appendix sets out the parties' interpretation of their respective obligations under specific Clauses identified below. Where a party complies with the interpretations set out in this Appendix, that party shall be deemed by the other party to have complied with its commitments under the Clauses.
Clauses 4(h) and 8: Disclosure of these Clauses
Data exporter agrees that these Clauses constitute data importer's Confidential Information (as that term is defined in the Agreement) and may not be disclosed by data exporter to any third party without data importer's prior written consent unless permitted pursuant to the Agreement. This shall not prevent disclosure of these Clauses to a data subject pursuant to Clause 4(h) or a supervisory authority pursuant to Clause 8.
Clause 5(a) and Clause 5(b): Suspension of data transfers and termination
The parties acknowledge that for the purposes of Clause 5(a), data importer may process the personal data only on behalf of the data exporter and in compliance with its documented instructions as set out in the DPA and that pursuant to the DPA, these instructions shall be the data exporter’s complete and final instructions.
The parties acknowledge that if data importer cannot provide compliance in accordance with Clause 5(a) and/or Clause 5(b), the data importer agrees to promptly inform the data exporter of its inability to comply, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the affected parts of the Service in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
If the data exporter intends to suspend the transfer of personal data and/or terminate the affected parts of the Service, it shall first provide notice to the data importer and provide data importer with a reasonable period of time to cure the non-compliance (“Cure Period”).
In addition, the data exporter and data importer shall reasonably cooperate with each other during the Cure Period to agree what additional safeguards or other measures, if any, may be reasonably required to ensure the data importer's compliance with the Clauses and applicable data protection law.
If, after the Cure Period, the data importer has not or cannot cure the non-compliance in accordance with the paragraphs 3 and 4 above, then the data exporter may suspend and/or terminate the affected part of the Service in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement without liability to either party (but without prejudice to any fees incurred by the data exporter prior to suspension or termination).
Clause 5(f): Audit
Data exporter acknowledges and agrees that it exercises its audit right under Clause 5(f) by instructing data importer to comply with the audit measures described in Section 5 (Security Reports and Audits) of the DPA.
Clause 5(j): Disclosure of subprocessor agreements
The parties acknowledge the obligation of the data importer to send promptly a copy of any onward subprocessor agreement it concludes under the Clauses to the data exporter.
The parties further acknowledge that, pursuant to subprocessor confidentiality restrictions, data importer may be restricted from disclosing onward subprocessor agreements to data exporter. Notwithstanding this, data importer shall use reasonable efforts to require any subprocessor it appoints to permit it to disclose the subprocessor agreement to data exporter.
Even where data importer cannot disclose a subprocessor agreement to data exporter, the parties agree that, upon the request of data exporter, data importer shall (on a confidential basis) provide all information it reasonably can in connection with such subprocessing agreement to data exporter.
Clause 6: Liability
Any claims brought under the Clauses shall be subject to the terms and conditions, including but not limited to, the exclusions and limitations set forth in the Agreement. In no event, shall any party limit its liability with respect to any data subject rights under these Clauses.
Clause 11: Onward subprocessing
The parties acknowledge that, pursuant to FAQ II.1 in Article 29 Working Party Paper WP 176 entitled "FAQs in order to address some issues raised by the entry into force of the EU Commission Decision 2010/87/EU of 5 February 2010 on standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to processors established in third countries under Directive 95/46/EC" the data exporter may provide a general consent to onward subprocessing by the data importer.
Accordingly, data exporter provides a general consent to data importer, pursuant to Clause 11 of these Clauses, to engage onward subprocessors. Such consent is conditional on data importer’s compliance with the requirements set out in Section 3 (Sub-processing) of the DPA.
Annex D - Jurisdiction-Specific Terms
Europe and the United Kingdom:
Objection to Sub-processors. Customer may object in writing to WordFly’s appointment of a new Sub-processor within five (5) calendar days of receiving notice in accordance with the DPA, provided that such objection is based on reasonable grounds relating to data protection. In such event, the parties shall discuss such concerns in good faith with a view to achieving a commercially reasonable resolution. If no such resolution can be reached, WordFly will, at its sole discretion, either not appoint such Sub-processor, or permit Customer to suspend or terminate the affected Service in accordance with the termination provisions in the Agreement without liability to either party (but without prejudice to any fees incurred by Customer prior to suspension or termination).
Government data access requests. As a matter of general practice, WordFly does not voluntarily provide government agencies or authorities (including law enforcement) with access to or information about WordFly accounts (including Personal Data Data). If WordFly receives a compulsory request (whether through a subpoena, court order, search warrant, or other valid legal process) from any government agency or authority (including law enforcement) for access to or information about a WordFly account (including Personal Data) belonging to a Customer whose primary contact information indicates the Customer is located in Europe, WordFly shall: (i) inform the government agency that WordFly is a processor of the data; (ii) attempt to redirect the agency to request the data directly from Customer; and (iii) notify Customer via email sent to Customer’s primary contact email address of the request to allow Customer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. As part of this effort, WordFly may provide Customer’s primary and billing contact information to the agency. WordFly shall not be required to comply with this paragraph 2 if it is legally prohibited from doing so, or it has a reasonable and good-faith belief that urgent access is necessary to prevent an imminent risk of serious harm to any individual, public safety, or WordFly’s property, Sites, or Service.
