   • Data Processor’s Processing of Client Data. Subject to the Agreement, Data Processor shall Process Client Data in accordance with Client’s documented instructions for the following purposes: (i) Processing in accordance with the Agreement and this DPA and to provide and improve the Services; (ii) Processing to comply with other documented reasonable instructions provided by Client (e.g., via email) where such instructions are consistent with the terms of the Agreement; (iii) Processing as required under the laws applicable to Data Processor, and/or as required by a court of competent jurisdiction or other competent governmental authority, provided that Data Processor shall inform Client of the legal requirement before Processing, unless such law or order prohibits disclosing such information.

It is hereby clarified that Data Processor has no obligation to assess whether instructions by Client infringe any Data Protection Laws.

3. ASSISTANCE
   • Data Processor Assistance. Data Processor will assist Client in responding to requests for exercising Data Subjects’ rights under Data Protection Laws. Data Processor will inform Client promptly if it receives a Data Subject Access Request, and in any event within 72 hours of receiving the Request. Data Processor will likewise assist Client with its obligations pursuant to Data Protection Laws, such as GDPR Articles 32-36, taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Data Processor.

Client hereby grants Data Processor a general authorization to engage Sub-processors to Process Client Data in order to provide the Services without obtaining any further written, specific authorization from the Client. Client acknowledges and agrees that (a) Data Processor’s Affiliates may be used as Sub-processors; and (b) Data Processor and/or Data Processor’s Affiliates respectively may engage third-party Sub-processors in connection with the provision of the Services subject to this Section 5.
   • List of Current Sub-processors and Notification of New Sub-processors.
     • Data Processor’s current list of Sub-processors is available here. Such Sub-processor list shall include the identities and details of those Sub-processors and their country of location (“Sub-processor List”). The Sub-processor List as of the latest between: (i) the date of execution of this DPA; or (ii) as of the date of your first use of the Services (as applicable), is hereby, or shall be (as applicable), authorized by Client. In order to subscribe to notifications to notifications concerning the appointment or replacement of a sub-processor, kindly send a request to [email protected]. Once subscribed, Atera will provide Client with details of any change of its Sub-processors as soon as reasonably practicable, and, in any event, will notify Client no less than seven (7) days prior to such change.
     • Client may reasonably object for reasons related to the GDPR to Data Processor’s appointment or replacement of Sub-processor by providing a written objection to [email protected]within seven (7) days of the receipt of an appointment or replacement notice, which shall include those reasons for objecting to Processor’s use of such new Sub-processor. In such an event, Atera may choose to use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Client an alternative solution to avoid the Processing of Client Data by the new Sub-processor that Client objected, as permitted in the above sentence. Until Atera makes a decision concerning Client’s objection, Atera may be required to temporarily suspend the Processing of the related Client Data, including, if required for this matter, suspend or limit access to Client’s account or suspend or limit certain features of the Services offered to the Client.
     • If Atera finds that it is unable to resolve Client’s objection or to provide Client with such alternative solution, within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Client’s valid reasoned objection, Client may, as a sole remedy, terminate the applicable Agreement and this DPA with respect only to those Services which cannot be provided by Data Processor without the use of the objected-to Sub-processor by providing written notice to Data Processor provided that all amounts due under the Agreement before the termination date with respect to the Processing at issue shall be duly paid to Data Processor. Client will have no further claims against Data Processor due to (i) past use of approved Sub-processors prior to the date of objection or (ii) the termination of the Agreement (including, without limitation, requesting refunds) and the DPA in the situation described in this paragraph.
     • If no objection has been raised to the replacement or appointing a new Sub-processor within the above mentioned time frame, Atera will deem Client to have authorized the new Sub-processor.
   • Data Processor shall remain fully liable to Client for the performance of the Sub-processors’ obligations, to the same extent that Data Processor is liable under this DPA.
6. AUDITS
   • Third-Party Certifications and Audits. Upon Client’s 14 days prior written request at reasonable intervals (no more than once every 12 months), and subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in the Agreement and this DPA, Data Processor shall make available to Client (or Client’s independent, third-party auditor that is not a competitor of, or is in conflict of interests with, Data Processor) a copy of Data Processor’s then most recent third-party audits or certifications, as applicable (provided, however, that such audits, certifications and the results therefrom, including the documents reflecting the outcome of the audit and/or the certifications, shall only be used by Client to assess compliance with this DPA and/or with Data Protection Laws, and shall not be used for any other purpose or disclosed to any third party without Data Processor’s prior written approval and, upon Data Processor’s first request, Client shall return all records or documentation in Client’s possession or control provided by Data Processor in the context of the audit and/or the certification). With respect to audits and inspections, the parties shall discuss in good faith and agree on the scope, timing, and details of the audits and inspections, provided however that the limitation set forth above with respect to the copies or audits certifications shall also apply to the audits. To the extent that Data Processor’s obligations in this section involve more than 8 hours/man of work, Client shall bear the costs and expenses of complying with this clause.
   • Controls for the Protection of Client Data. Data Processor shall maintain all industry-standard technical and organizational measures required pursuant to Article 32 of the GDPR for protection of the security (including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing and against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration or damage, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Personal Data), confidentiality and integrity of Client Data, including as described in: www.atera.com/trust/, as amended from time to time (the “Security Documentation”).

Client is responsible for reviewing the information Atera makes available from time to time regarding its data security, and making an independent determination as to whether the Services meet the Client’s needs, requirements and legal obligations, including Client’s obligations under Data Protection Laws to ensure the appropriate level of security when using the Services, taking into consideration any risks with respect to Client Data. Client is further responsible for properly configuring the Services and using features and functionalities made available by Atera to maintain appropriate security in light of the nature of the data processed by Client’s use of the Services.
