The User acknowledges that it has evaluated the RedCarbon Services independently or with the Partner and that it is solely responsible for determining whether the RedCarbon Services meet its requirements and that it accepts them "as is". Without limiting the foregoing, RedCarbon specifically does not represent or warrant that:

  • the RedCarbon Services will meet the User's expectations, requirements or objectives, or be fit for any particular purpose intended by the User. The User expressly acknowledges and accepts that the sole purpose of the RedCarbon Services is to seek to reduce — and not to eliminate — the risk of potential cybersecurity incidents, and that RedCarbon provides no guarantee that such incidents will not occur;
  • the Service and the Software will operate uninterruptedly, in a timely manner, or be error-free, including in the event of disruptions and/or unauthorized access by third parties; any temporary unavailability or degradation of the RedCarbon Services shall not constitute a breach of this EULA by RedCarbon;

3.5 The User acknowledges and accepts that the Platform and the Services are based on artificial intelligence, machine learning algorithms and automated analysis systems which, by their very nature, produce outputs that are inherently probabilistic and may contain inaccuracies, errors, false positives or false negatives. The performance and accuracy of such AI-driven outputs depend, inter alia, on the quality, completeness and timeliness of the data transmitted via the integrations ("Integration"), i.e. through technical connection between RedCarbon and an external system belonging to the Partner or End-User, among those indicated as supported on www.redcarbon.ai (e.g. SIEM, EDR, XDR, security appliances or cloud services) ("Admitted Systems"), designed to receive events, alerts or data relevant to security analysis, and on the evolving nature of the cyber threat landscape and on factors beyond RedCarbon's reasonable control. Accordingly, RedCarbon shall not be liable for any decision, action or omission taken or made by the User on the basis of, or in reliance upon, any output, report, analysis or recommendation generated by the Platform and the Services.

3.6 Where the RedCarbon Services are offered to the User as part of a bundle, package or integrated solution that includes services, software, hardware or other products provided by the Partner ("Bundled Offering") or by a third party, the User acknowledges and accepts that: (i) RedCarbon's obligations and liabilities under this EULA extend exclusively to the RedCarbon Services as independently delivered by RedCarbon, and do not extend to any services, components or products forming part of the Bundled Offering that are provided by the Partner or any third party; (ii) RedCarbon shall not be liable for any defect, malfunction, interruption, non-conformity or failure of the Bundled Offering to the extent that such defect, malfunction, interruption, non-conformity or failure is caused or contributed to, directly or indirectly, by any service, software, hardware or product provided by the Partner or any third party, or by the Integration, configuration or combination of the RedCarbon Services with any such Partner or third-party components; (iii) the User's sole recourse in respect of any such defect, malfunction or failure attributable to the Partner's components or to the Bundled Offering as a whole shall be against the Partner pursuant to the terms of any separate agreement between the User and the Partner; and (iv) RedCarbon makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the compatibility, interoperability, fitness or performance of the RedCarbon Services when combined with any Partner or third-party services or products, except to the extent expressly set out in the applicable Order Form.

3.7 The User acknowledges and accepts that: (i) the fees and any other amounts due in consideration of the RedCarbon Services are payable by the User exclusively to the Partner, pursuant to the terms and conditions agreed between the User and the Partner in a separate agreement; RedCarbon is not a party to such payment obligation and no amount is due by the User directly to RedCarbon under this EULA in respect of fees; (ii) RedCarbon shall have no liability whatsoever towards the User arising out of or in connection with: (a) any failure by the Partner to invoice, collect or remit fees; (b) any dispute between the User and the Partner regarding the amounts due, the billing terms or the scope of the fees; (c) any suspension or termination of the RedCarbon Services resulting from the User's failure to pay the Partner in accordance with the terms agreed between them; and (iii) in the event that the Partner fails to remit to RedCarbon any amounts due under the agreement between RedCarbon and the Partner, RedCarbon reserves the right to suspend or terminate the RedCarbon Services, without any liability towards the User and without prejudice to any other rights available to RedCarbon.

11.2 The Data Processing Agreement ("DPA") set out in Annex B governs the processing of personal data by RedCarbon exclusively within the direct, bilateral service relationship between RedCarbon and the User under this EULA. The DPA applies only insofar as RedCarbon processes personal data directly on behalf of the User in the performance of the Services.

The User shall provide RedCarbon and its appointed auditors with reasonable cooperation and access to the relevant information and systems, limited to what is strictly necessary and proportionate for the purposes of the audit, subject to applicable confidentiality obligations and data protection requirements, and, where strictly necessary, premises. In the event that an audit reveals any material non-compliance by the User, the User shall promptly remedy such non-compliance at its own cost and expense and shall reimburse RedCarbon for all reasonable costs incurred in connection with such audit. The exercise of audit rights under this paragraph shall not relieve the User of any of its obligations or liabilities under this EULA.


14. Limitation of Liability

14.1 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable mandatory law, RedCarbon shall not in any event be liable for indirect or consequential damages, loss of profit, loss of data, loss of business, loss of goodwill or reputational damage, regardless of the legal basis of the claim, suffered by the User or any third party in connection with, or arising out of, the use of or inability to use the RedCarbon Services and/or this EULA; should liability of RedCarbon be established, claim for compensation shall not exceed the fees paid by the Partner to RedCarbon in the twelve (12) calendar months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, in relation to the affected Order Form.

14.2 The User acknowledges and accepts that RedCarbon shall not be liable for, and shall have no obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the End-User or third party in respect of, any claim, damage, cost or expense arising from or in connection with:

  • (a) defects, malfunctions, errors or non-conformities of the Platform or the Services, except to the extent that such defects, malfunctions, errors or non-conformities are directly and exclusively attributable to RedCarbon's wilful misconduct or gross negligence;
  • (b) any infringement or alleged infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, except where such infringement is directly caused by the Platform or the Services as provided by RedCarbon in their unmodified form;
  • (c) any use of the Platform or the Services by the End-User in a manner not expressly authorised by this Agreement or the applicable documentation;
  • (d) possible damages caused by Integrations;

  • (h) any failure, breach, or violation of applicable laws attributable to the User;
  • (i) any breach of this EULA by the User or its Authorised Users.

14.3 In addition, RedCarbon shall not be liable for any damages arising in any way from the fulfilment of the obligations undertaken, and in particular for damages resulting from the failure to activate or use the Platform, or from the unavailability or malfunctioning of the RedCarbon Services, or from delays in their provision, or from the destruction, loss, theft, damage or deterioration, whether total or partial, of data provided by the End-User or third parties, where such damage is attributable to:

  • a) defective or incorrect use of the Platform and the Services by the Partner or the End-User;
  • b) malfunction of the network infrastructure, electrical system or terminals used by the Partner or the End-User;
  • c) the Partner, End-User or Third Parties carrying out work on the RedCarbon Services not expressly authorised by RedCarbon;
  • d) total or partial interruption of access services or termination of the connection, if due to acts of third parties, the Partner or the End-User, and interruption or unavailability of connections between the Platform and RedCarbon's Services and the Partner or between the Platform and RedCarbon's Services and the End-User;
  • e) Force Majeure;
  • f) failure by the Partner or the End-User to comply with applicable laws and regulations, in particular regarding fire prevention, safety and accident prevention;
  • g) failure to install updates to their devices;
  • h) malfunction of the Partner's, the End-User's or a Third Party's software or hardware.

14.4 RedCarbon accepts no liability whatsoever for the transmission or receipt of illegal information of any nature or kind, the Parties mutually acknowledging that the internet is not controlled by RedCarbon and that, due to the specific structure of the said network, no public or private entity, not even RedCarbon itself, is able to fully guarantee and monitor the performance and functionality of the network's branches or to carry out adequate checks regarding the content of the information transmitted via its network.

14.5 Whilst the Parties mutually acknowledge that RedCarbon adopts state-of-the-art measures to protect the End-User and their data of which it may become aware, RedCarbon, like any operator, cannot guarantee that the solutions it adopts will succeed in detecting or preventing harmful or dangerous events caused by malicious conduct on the part of Third Parties (for example: viruses, malware, intrusion attempts, unsolicited messages, phishing attacks) and, should this occur, RedCarbon shall therefore not be liable to the End-User for any direct and/or indirect damages arising therefrom, including, without limitation, loss of data, business interruption, costs of remediation or any other loss or expense, except in cases of RedCarbon's willful misconduct or gross negligence.

14.6 RedCarbon has no obligation to monitor any documents or data that may be stored and shall therefore have no obligation to monitor or examine such documents or data, nor to actively investigate facts or circumstances indicating the presence of unlawful activities. Consequently, RedCarbon shall under no circumstances be held liable by the End-User or any third party in relation to the fact that they have acted in breach of applicable regulatory or contractual provisions.

14.7 Any claim by the User against RedCarbon for damages or any other remedy under or in connection with this EULA must be notified to RedCarbon in writing within ten (10) calendar days from the date on which the User became aware, or ought reasonably to have become aware, of the event or circumstance giving rise to such claim. Any such claim notification shall be accompanied by comprehensive supporting documentation, including, without limitation: (a) a detailed description of the alleged event giving rise to the claim; (b) the date and time of occurrence of the alleged event; (c) all available technical evidence, including system logs, error reports, screenshots and any other data reasonably necessary to substantiate the claim; (d) a detailed quantification of the damages claimed, together with all supporting evidence and calculations; (e) evidence of the causal link between the alleged breach or event and the damages claimed; and (f) evidence of the measures taken by the End-User to mitigate the loss or damage suffered. Failure to give notice within such period shall constitute an irrevocable waiver of the User's right to bring that specific claim. RedCarbon shall have no obligation to process or respond to any claim that is not accompanied by the documentation required under this paragraph. This provision does not affect any mandatory statutory limitation period applicable under Italian law.


15. Amendments to EULA

15.1 RedCarbon reserves the right, at any time, to amend, update, or otherwise modify the provisions of this EULA and/or any Annexes.

15.2 Where such changes materially adversely affect the RedCarbon Services from a technical standpoint, or result in increased costs for the User, or otherwise constitute amendments to this EULA and/or any Annexes, RedCarbon shall notify the User at least thirty (30) days in advance.

(b) The User, as data controller (or "controller") and RedCarbon, as data processor (or "processor"), have agreed to this DPA in order to ensure compliance with Article 28(3) and (4) of GDPR.

(c) This DPA applies to the processing of personal data as specified in Annex II.

(d) Annexes I to IV are an integral part of this DPA.

(e) This DPA is without prejudice to obligations to which the controller is subject by virtue of GDPR.

(f) This DPA does not by itself ensure compliance with obligations related to international transfers in accordance with Chapter V of GDPR.

(g) This DPA applies exclusively to the direct, bilateral data processing relationship between the controller and RedCarbon as processor under the EULA.

Clause 2 – Individual Negotiation

(a) The Parties acknowledge that this DPA has been the subject of specific individual negotiations between them, with each Party having the right to discuss, amend and supplement its content. Consequently, the Parties agree that Articles 1341 and 1342 of the Civil Code do not apply to this DPA, as its clauses do not constitute general terms and conditions of contract drawn up unilaterally.

Clause 3 – Interpretation

(a) Where the DPA uses the terms defined in GDPR, those terms shall have the same meaning as in that Regulation.

(b) This DPA shall be read and interpreted in the light of the provisions of GDPR.

(c) This DPA shall not be interpreted in a way that runs counter to the rights and obligations provided for in GDPR or in a way that prejudices the fundamental rights or freedoms of the data subjects.

Clause 4 – Hierarchy

In the event of a contradiction between this DPA and the provisions of the EULA, this DPA shall prevail with respect to data protection obligations.

Clause 5 – Docking clause

(a) Any entity that is not a Party to these Clauses may, with the agreement of all the Parties, accede to these Clauses at any time as a controller or a processor by completing the Annexes and signing Annex I.

(b) Once the Annexes under (a) are completed and signed, the acceding entity shall be treated as a Party to these Clauses and have the rights and obligations of a controller or a processor, in accordance with its designation in Annex I.

(c) The acceding entity shall have no rights or obligations resulting from these Clauses from the period prior to becoming a Party.

(d) Notwithstanding sub-clauses (a) to (c) above, the Reseller (as defined in the EULA) may not accede to these Clauses in its capacity as an intermediary involved in the distribution or resale of the Services. Any accession by the Reseller requires the prior express written consent of RedCarbon.

Section II – Obligations of the Parties

Clause 6 – Description of processing

The details of the processing operations, in particular the categories of personal data and the purposes of processing for which the personal data is processed on behalf of the controller, are specified in Annex II.

Clause 7 – Obligations of the Parties

7.1. Instructions

(a) The processor shall process personal data only on documented instructions from the controller, unless required to do so by Union or Member State law to which the processor is subject. In this case, the processor shall inform the controller of that legal requirement before processing, unless the law prohibits this on important grounds of public interest. Subsequent instructions may also be given by the controller throughout the duration of the processing of personal data. These instructions shall always be documented.

(b) The processor shall immediately inform the controller if, in the processor's opinion, instructions given by the controller infringe GDPR or the applicable Union or Member State data protection provisions.

(c) Where the processor notifies the controller pursuant to paragraph (b) above and the controller fails to provide adequate written clarification or does not withdraw or modify the disputed instruction within ten (10) business days of such notification, RedCarbon shall be entitled to suspend performance of the contested instruction without such suspension constituting a breach of these Clauses or the EULA, and without prejudice to the processor's right to terminate in accordance with Clause 10(c).

7.2. Purpose limitation

The processor shall process the personal data only for the specific purposes of the processing, as set out in Annex II, unless it receives further instructions from the controller.

7.3. Duration of the processing of personal data

Processing by the processor shall only take place for the duration specified in Annex II.

7.4. Security of processing

(a) The processor shall at least implement the technical and organisational measures specified in Annex III to ensure the security of the personal data. This includes protecting the data against a breach of security leading to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access to the data (personal data breach). In assessing the appropriate level of security, the Parties shall take due account of the state of the art, the costs of implementation, the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing and the risks involved for the data subjects.

(b) The measures may evolve during the term of this EULA in line with technological developments, architectures, providers, risks, applicable legislation and the scope of the Services, provided that the overall level of protection is not substantially reduced. Should the planned changes entail a significant alteration to the security measures adopted – meaning those that affect the areas described in Annex III or that could reduce the level of protection afforded to data subjects – the processor shall give prior written notice to the controller. The latter shall be entitled to raise a reasoned objection within 10 (ten) working days of receiving the notification. In the absence of an objection within that period, the changes shall be deemed to have been accepted. In the event of urgent measures necessitated by security reasons, critical vulnerabilities or new regulatory obligations, the processor may proceed immediately, notifying the controller at the same time or without undue delay.

(c) The processor shall grant access to the personal data undergoing processing to members of its personnel only to the extent strictly necessary for implementing, managing and monitoring of the contract. The processor shall ensure that persons authorised to process the personal data received have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

(d) RedCarbon, in accordance with Article 82(3) of GDPR shall not be liable for personal data breaches or security incidents that arise from or are directly attributable to: (i) the controller's failure to provide accurate, timely or sufficient configuration instructions; (ii) the introduction into the Services of malicious content, misconfigured log sources, unsanitised data or malware by or on behalf of the controller; (iii) vulnerabilities or failures in systems, networks or software not managed or operated by RedCarbon; or (iv) the controller's failure to implement adequate security measures within its own infrastructure that are necessary to protect the integrity of the data submitted to the Services.

7.5. Processing of special categories of personal data (Sensitive data)

The controller warrants that it shall not submit, upload or otherwise transmit data belonging to special categories of personal data within the meaning of Article 9 of the GDPR to the Services without prior written agreement with RedCarbon specifying the applicable additional technical and organisational safeguards to be implemented. RedCarbon shall bear no liability for the processing of such "sensitive" data submitted to the Services without such prior written agreement, and the controller shall indemnify and hold RedCarbon harmless from any claims, fines or damages arising therefrom.

7.6. Documentation and compliance

(a) The Parties shall be able to demonstrate compliance with these Clauses.

(b) The processor shall deal promptly and adequately with inquiries from the controller about the processing of data in accordance with these Clauses.

(c) The processor shall make available to the controller all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations that are set out in these Clauses and stem directly from GDPR. At the controller's request, the processor shall also permit and contribute to audits of the processing activities covered by these Clauses, at reasonable intervals or if there are indications of non-compliance. In deciding on a review or an audit, the controller may take into account relevant certifications held by the processor.

(d) The controller may choose to conduct the audit by itself or mandate an independent auditor, subject to the following conditions: (i) audits shall be requested by written notice at least thirty (30) calendar days in advance; (ii) audits shall be conducted during normal business hours in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with RedCarbon's operations or services provided to other clients; (iii) independent auditors shall execute a confidentiality agreement with RedCarbon prior to commencing any audit; (iv) the scope of audits shall not extend to RedCarbon's source code, proprietary algorithms or models, cryptographic keys, trade secrets, or data of other clients; (v) the costs of any audit beyond one (1) per calendar year, or of any audit not triggered by a confirmed breach of these Clauses, shall be borne by the controller.

(e) The Parties shall make the information referred to in this Clause, including the results of any audits, available to the competent supervisory authorities on request.

7.7. Use of sub-processors

(a) The processor has the controller's general authorisation for the engagement of sub-processors from an agreed list. The processor shall specifically inform the controller of any intended changes of that list through the addition or replacement of sub-processors at least thirty (30) days in advance, thereby giving the controller sufficient time to be able to object to such changes prior to the engagement of the concerned sub-processor(s). The processor shall provide the controller with the information necessary to enable the controller to exercise the right to object.

(b) Where the processor engages a sub-processor for carrying out specific processing activities (on behalf of the controller), it shall do so by way of a contract which imposes on the sub-processor, in substance, the same data protection obligations as the ones imposed on the data processor in accordance with these Clauses. The processor shall ensure that the sub-processor complies with the obligations to which the processor is subject pursuant to these Clauses and to GDPR.

(c) At the controller's request, the processor shall provide a copy of such a sub-processor agreement and any subsequent amendments to the controller. To the extent necessary to protect business secret or other confidential information, including personal data, the processor may redact the text of the agreement prior to sharing the copy.

(d) The processor shall remain fully responsible to the controller for the performance of the sub-processor's obligations in accordance with its contract with the processor. The processor shall notify the controller of any failure by the sub-processor to fulfil its contractual obligations.

(e) The processor shall agree a third party beneficiary clause with the sub-processor whereby - in the event the processor has factually disappeared, ceased to exist in law or has become insolvent - the controller shall have the right to terminate the sub-processor contract and to instruct the sub-processor to erase or return the personal data.

(f) The controller's right to object pursuant to sub-clause (a) must be exercised in writing within the specified notice period and must be based on specific, documented, and objectively justified data protection grounds. Where a valid objection cannot be resolved and no technically or economically reasonable alternative is available to deliver the affected component of the Services, RedCarbon shall be entitled to suspend or discontinue that component without such action constituting a breach of these Clauses or the EULA.

7.8. International transfers

(a) Any transfer of data to a third country or an international organisation by the processor shall be done only on the basis of documented instructions from the controller or in order to fulfil a specific requirement under Union or Member State law to which the processor is subject and shall take place in compliance with Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. The controller acknowledges that certain technical components of the Services, including infrastructure or sub-processor services, may involve processing or access from outside the European Economic Area; in such cases, RedCarbon shall implement appropriate transfer safeguards in accordance with Chapter V GDPR, including where applicable Standard Contractual Clauses adopted pursuant to Article 46(2) GDPR, adequacy decisions, or other recognised transfer mechanisms.

(b) The controller agrees that where the processor engages a sub-processor in accordance with Clause 7.7. for carrying out specific processing activities (on behalf of the controller) and those processing activities involve a transfer of personal data within the meaning of Chapter V of GDPR, the processor and the sub-processor can ensure compliance with Chapter V of GDPR by using standard contractual clauses adopted by the Commission in accordance with Article 46(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, provided the conditions for the use of those standard contractual clauses are met.

Clause 8 – Assistance to the controller

(a) The processor shall promptly notify the controller of any request it has received from the data subject. It shall not respond to the request itself, unless authorised to do so by the controller.

(b) The processor shall assist the controller in fulfilling its obligations to respond to data subjects' requests to exercise their rights, taking into account the nature of the processing. In fulfilling its obligations in accordance with (a) and (b), the processor shall comply with the controller's instructions.

(c) In addition to the processor's obligation to assist the controller pursuant to Clause 8(b), the processor shall furthermore assist the controller in ensuring compliance with the following obligations, taking into account the nature of the data processing and the information available to the processor:

  1. the 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') where a type of processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons;
  2. the obligation to consult the competent supervisory authority/ies 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 controller to mitigate the risk;
  3. the obligations in Article 32 of GDPR.

(d) The Parties shall set out in Annex III the appropriate technical and organisational measures by which the processor is required to assist the controller in the application of this Clause as well as the scope and the extent of the assistance required.

(e) Assistance activities under Clauses 8(b) to 8(d) that require extraordinary manual effort, forensic analysis, specialist development work, or dedicated resources outside the ordinary scope of the Services shall be subject to prior written agreement between the Parties and may be invoiced by RedCarbon at its applicable professional services rates.

Clause 9 – Notification of personal data breach

In the event of a personal data breach, the processor shall cooperate with and assist the controller for the controller to comply with its obligations under Articles 33 and 34 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, where applicable, taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to the processor.

9.1. Data breach concerning data processed by the controller

In the event of a personal data breach concerning data processed by the controller, the processor shall assist the controller:

(a) in notifying the personal data breach to the competent supervisory authority/ies, without undue delay after the controller has become aware of it, where relevant;

(b) in obtaining the following information which, pursuant to Article 33(3) of GDPR, shall be stated in the controller's notification, and must at least include:

  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;
  2. the likely consequences of the personal data breach;
  3. the measures taken or proposed to be taken by the controller to address the personal data breach, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.

Where, and insofar as, it is not possible to provide all this information at the same time, the initial notification shall contain the information then available and further information shall, as it becomes available, subsequently be provided without undue delay.

(c) in complying, pursuant to Article 34 of GDPR, with the 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.

9.2. Data breach concerning data processed by the processor

In the event of a personal data breach concerning data processed by the processor, the processor shall notify the controller without undue delay and, where reasonably practicable, within forty-eight (48) hours of the processor's internal classification of the event as a relevant personal data breach affecting data processed on behalf of the controller. Such notification shall contain, at least:

(a) a description of the nature of the breach (including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects and data records concerned);

(b) the details of a contact point where more information concerning the personal data breach can be obtained;

(c) its likely consequences and the measures taken or proposed to be taken to address the breach, including to mitigate its possible adverse effects.

Where, and insofar as, it is not possible to provide all this information at the same time, the initial notification shall contain the information then available and further information shall, as it becomes available, subsequently be provided without undue delay.

The Parties shall set out in Annex III all other elements to be provided by the processor when assisting the controller in the compliance with the controller's obligations under Articles 33 and 34 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

Section III – Final Provisions

Clause 10 – Non-compliance with the Clauses and termination

(a) Without prejudice to any provisions of GDPR, in the event that the processor is in breach of its substantive obligations under these Clauses, the controller shall first provide RedCarbon with written notice specifying the alleged breach in reasonable detail and allow a remediation period of thirty (30) calendar days from receipt of such notice. Only if the breach remains uncured following such period may the controller instruct the processor to suspend the processing of personal data until compliance is restored or the contract is terminated. The right of suspension shall not apply to minor, technical or incidental non-conformities that do not result in material harm to data subjects. The processor shall promptly inform the controller in case it is unable to comply with these Clauses, for whatever reason.

(b) The controller shall be entitled to terminate the contract insofar as it concerns processing of personal data in accordance with these Clauses if:

  1. the processing of personal data by the processor has been suspended by the controller pursuant to point (a) and if compliance with these Clauses is not restored within a reasonable time and in any event within one month following suspension;
  2. the processor is in substantial or persistent breach of these Clauses or its obligations under GDPR;
  3. the processor fails to comply with a binding decision of a competent court or the competent supervisory authority/ies regarding its obligations pursuant to these Clauses or to GDPR.

(c) The processor shall be entitled to terminate the contract insofar as it concerns processing of personal data under these Clauses where, after having informed the controller that its instructions infringe applicable legal requirements in accordance with Clause 7.1(b), the controller insists on compliance with the instructions.

(d) Following termination of the contract, the processor shall, at the written request of the controller and at the controller's choice, delete all personal data processed on behalf of the controller and provide written confirmation to the controller that it has done so, or return all personal data to the controller and delete existing copies, unless Union or Member State law requires storage of the personal data. Deletion or return shall be completed within thirty (30) days of the controller's written request, subject to technical feasibility. Backup copies subject to ordinary rotation and disaster recovery cycles may be retained for the technically necessary period, during which they shall remain subject to these Clauses. Operations involving large data volumes, complex datasets, or bespoke formats may require additional time and professional services to be agreed in writing between the Parties. Until all personal data is deleted or returned, the processor shall continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses.

The Parties acknowledge that this Data Processing Agreement ("DPA") has been the subject of specific individual negotiations between them, with each Party having the right to discuss, amend and supplement its content. Consequently, the Parties agree that Articles 1341 and 1342 of the Civil Code do not apply to this DPA, as its clauses do not constitute general terms and conditions of contract drawn up unilaterally.
