Online Data Processing Agreement

The Parties have entered into Terms and Conditions of Service set-out in a separate agreement (the “Agreement” or “Terms and Conditions of Service”) which requires that the Company access and Process (as defined below) Personal Data. This Data Processing Agreement (the “DPA”) and its Appendices specify the obligations of the Parties relating to the Processing of Personal Data pursuant to the Agreement. Details of the Processing of Personal Data are included in the Agreement. Xperi Inc. and its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively “Xperi”) may update this version of the DPA from time to time. The current version will be posted online. The DPA and the Appendices to the DPA are expressly incorporated into the Agreement. Unless defined elsewhere, terms are defined at Section 15 of this DPA.

  1. Responsibilities and Obligations
    • The Parties agree that, for the Processing of Personal Data by the Company for Xperi, Xperi shall be the Data Controller and the other party to the Agreement (“Company”) shall be the Data Processor unless Xperi is a Data Processor in which event the Company shall be a Sub-Processor.
    • Company shall Process Personal Data only on behalf of Xperi and at all times only in accordance with this DPA, including the Appendices, the Agreement and in compliance with Data Protection Laws.
    • Within the scope of the Agreement, each Party shall be responsible for complying with its respective obligations under the Data Protection Laws.
    • Where the CCPA applies to the Processing of Personal Data, Company will act as Xperi’s Service Provider and Contractor (as defined in the CCPA). As such, Company will only retain, use or disclose Personal Data of Data Subjects (i) for a Business Purpose (as defined in the CCPA) on behalf of Xperi and the specific purpose of performing Services under the Agreement; or (ii) as otherwise permitted for service providers under the CCPA.  Company acknowledges and agrees that: (i) it shall not sell or share Personal Data as the CCPA defines “sell” and “share”; (ii) it shall not retain, use or disclose Personal Data for any commercial purpose, other than providing the Services specified in the Agreement or as otherwise permitted for service providers under the CCPA, and as set-out in the Terms and Conditions of Service; (iii) it shall not retain, use or disclose Personal Data outside the direct business relationship between Company and Xperi, such as by combining or updating Personal Data collected pursuant to the Agreement with Personal Data received from another source, unless expressly permitted by the CCPA; and (iv) it shall comply with all applicable sections of the CCPA, including providing the same level of privacy protection to Personal Data as required of businesses by the CCPA.  Company further confirms and certifies that it understands the requirements in this DPA, including in this subsection, and will comply with the requirements.
    • The Parties agree that the disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring or sharing of any Personal Data under this DPA for the performance of the Services is not a “Sale” of such Personal Data under the CCPA (or any other applicable Data Protection Laws). Company acknowledges and confirms that it does not receive any Personal Data as consideration for any services or other items that Company provides to Xperi.
  2. Processing Instructions
    • Company will Process Personal Data in accordance with Xperi’s written instructions. This DPA along with the applicable Agreement, contains Xperi’s written instructions to Company. The Parties agree that Xperi may communicate any change in these initial written instructions to the Company by way of written notification to the Company and that Company shall abide by such instructions. The Company shall maintain a secure, complete, accurate and up to date record of all such individual instructions. For the avoidance of doubt, any instructions that would lead to Processing outside the scope of this DPA (e.g. because a new processing purpose is introduced) will require a prior agreement between the Parties and, where applicable, shall be subject to any contractual variation procedure under the Agreement.
    • Where instructed by Xperi, Company shall promptly correct, delete or restrict the Processing of Personal Data and provide the Personal Data to or confirmation of deletion to Xperi.
    • Company shall immediately inform Xperi in writing if, in Company’s opinion, a Processing Instruction infringes Data Protection Laws, and provide a detailed explanation of the reasons for its opinion in writing. The Parties shall reasonably co-operate to resolve such concerns of the Company.
  3. Company Personnel
    • Company will ensure that only those personnel whom it has authorised to do so will have access to the Personal Data and shall prohibit its personnel from Processing Personal Data without such authorization. Company will ensure that its personnel have committed themselves to contractual or statutory obligations of confidentiality to protect the Personal Data both during the term of engagement and after the engagement ends with such personnel. Company shall ensure that any personnel who have access to Personal Data are reliable (by undertaking background screening assessments prior to being assigned to Process the Personal Data) and have undergone appropriate training to ensure that they understand their data protection responsibilities with respect such Personal Data that they Process for Xperi.
  4. Disclosure to Third-Parties and Data Subject Rights
    • Company will not disclose Personal Data to any third-party (including any government agency, court, or law enforcement) except with written consent from Xperi or as necessary to comply with applicable mandatory laws. If Company is obligated to disclose Personal Data to a law enforcement agency or third-party, Company shall give Xperi prompt notice of the access request prior to granting such access, and allow Xperi the opportunity to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy if it so chooses. If such notice is legally prohibited, Company will take reasonable measures to minimise the nature and extent of the Personal Data so disclosed as if it were Company’s own confidential information being requested and shall inform Xperi as soon as possible if and when such legal prohibition ceases to apply.
    • With respect to any request or communication from a Data Subject which relates to the Processing of Personal Data under any Data Protection Law (“Request”), Company shall provide Xperi with full cooperation, information and assistance (“Assistance”) in relation to any such Request where instructed by Xperi.
    • Where Company receives a Request, Company shall (i) not directly respond to such Request, (ii) promptly notify Xperi with a copy of the Request and (iii) provide Assistance according to further instructions from Xperi.
    • Company will provide Assistance to Xperi to enable it to comply with its obligations to Data Subjects of providing access to Personal Data, deletion, restriction and/or rectification of Personal Data under the Data Protection Laws and, if required by Xperi, to return or delete all copies of the Personal Data promptly on request.
  5. Technical and Organizational Security Measures
    • Company shall implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational security measures (“TOMs”) to ensure that Personal Data is Processed in accordance with this DPA and to protect Personal Data against any attempted, threatened, alleged or actual Personal Data Breach. Such measures shall include the measures set-out in Appendix 1.
    • Company shall document the implemented TOMs and shall provide Xperi with such documentation upon request including, where available, any certifications including, but not limited to, an ISO 27001 certification.
    • Company shall assess and evaluate the effectiveness of TOMs on an ongoing basis. Company shall continuously enhance and improve TOMs, where reasonably required, and shall provide an updated copy to Xperi upon request and when material changes are made to the last disclosed copy. In the event that Company plans to degrade or degrades the effectiveness of its TOMs, Company shall notify Xperi promptly and allow Xperi, if it decides to do so based on the changes, to terminate certain or all contracts with Company, subject to (i) a proportionate refund of any prepaid fees, (ii) transition or migration Assistance as reasonably required, and (iii) without applying any early termination charges or other extra charges.
  6. Assistance with Data Protection Impact Assessment
    • Where a Data Protection Impact Assessment (“DPIA”) is required under applicable Data Protection Laws for the Processing of Personal Data, Company shall provide upon request to Xperi any information and Assistance reasonably required for the DPIA and Assistance for any communication with data protection authorities, where required, unless the requested information or Assistance is not pertaining to Company’s obligations under this DPA.
  7. Compliance Information Rights and Audit
    • Company shall make available to Xperi upon Xperi’s request all information and Assistance reasonably required to demonstrate compliance with the obligations in this DPA. Company will notify Xperi without undue delay, and in any case no later than 5 business days, after it makes a determination that it can no longer meet its obligations under Data Protection Laws.
    • Company shall, upon reasonable notice, allow for and contribute to on-site inspections of the Company’s Processing of Personal Data, as well as the TOMs (including data processing systems, policies, procedures and records), during regular business hours and without unreasonably interrupting Company’s business operations. Such on-site inspections are conducted by Xperi, its affiliates and subsidiaries or an independent third-party on Xperi’s behalf (which will not be a competitor of the Company) that is subject to reasonable confidentiality obligations. Company shall cease Processing Personal Data if Xperi notifies Company that Xperi reasonably believes that Company Processes Personal Data in a manner inconsistent with Xperi’s obligations under Data Protection Laws or Company’s obligations under this DPA.
    • Company will promptly refer to Xperi any requests received from data protection authorities or other regulators that relate to the Company’s Processing of Personal Data. Company shall cooperate and provide Assistance promptly with Xperi in its dealings with such data protection authorities or regulators and with any audit requests received from national data protection authorities. Xperi shall be entitled to disclose this DPA or any other documents (including contracts with Subcontractors) that relate to the performance of its obligations under this DPA.
  8. Personal Data Breach Notification

With respect to any threatened, suspected, alleged or actual Personal Data Breach, Company shall:

    • notify Xperi of a Personal Data Breach involving Company or a Subcontractor without undue delay (and using reasonable endeavors to do so within 24 hours after becoming aware of the Personal Data Breach);
    • provide reasonable information, cooperation and Assistance to Xperi in relation to any action to be taken in response to a Personal Data Breach under Data Protection Laws, including regarding any communication of the Personal Data Breach to Data Subjects and national data protection authorities;

If Company proposes to change such approved Subcontractors, it shall provide Xperi with prior written notice and allow Xperi at least four weeks to consider and, if reasonable, object to such proposed change. The Parties shall co-operate reasonably to resolve any concerns Xperi may have about such a change and Company shall not implement the proposed change unless Xperi has consented in writing.
    • Where Company, with Xperi’s consent, subcontracts its obligations and rights under this DPA it shall do so only by way of a binding written contract with the Subcontractor which imposes the same Processing and confidentiality obligations, especially with regard to instructions and TOMs, on the Subcontractor as are imposed on Company under this DPA.
    • Company shall, upon request from Xperi, provide a copy of such contract (omitting any confidential or commercial provisions) to Xperi. Company shall ensure that it has undertaken an appropriate diligence check on such Subcontractor particularly with respect to its TOMs and suitability to Process the Personal Data. Xperi shall have a direct or, through the Company, indirect right to perform inspections on site at the Subcontractor’s premises, or to have a third-party conduct such an audit of its Processing operations with respect to the Personal Data.

Technical and Organizational Measures

System Security Requirements Specification

The System Security Requirements Specification is the official statement of the system requirements for service providers that Process Personal Data on behalf of Xperi companies, such entities referred to as “Processors”.  The corresponding Xperi company concerned is referred to as the “Controller”. It details what services the system should provide, the system properties, and the constraints on the operation and development of the system. Compliance with these minimum security measures does not guarantee that an appropriate level of protection has been provided – a comprehensive assessment of security must be undertaken depending upon the circumstances, type of data and Processing to be performed. Processors are expected to adopt these standards as appropriate standards to ensure a secure operating environment to handle Personal Data on behalf of Xperi. 

Definitions

In this document, the following definitions are used:

Authorised Users has the meaning defined in clause 16.
Information Systems means all systems used to access, store or otherwise Process Personal Data, including temporary files;
