Clause 2 - Invariability of the Clauses

(a) The Parties undertake not to modify the Clauses, except for adding information to the Annexes or updating information in them.

(b) This does not prevent the Parties from including the standard contractual clauses laid down in these Clauses in a broader contract, or from adding other clauses or additional safeguards provided that they do not directly or indirectly contradict the Clauses or detract from the fundamental rights or freedoms of data subjects.

Clause 3 - Interpretation

(a) Where these Clauses use the terms defined in Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 respectively, those terms shall have the same meaning as in that Regulation.

(b) These Clauses shall be read and interpreted in the light of the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 respectively.

(c) These Clauses shall not be interpreted in a way that runs counter to the rights and obligations provided for in Regulation (EU) 2016/679 / Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 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 these Clauses and the provisions of related agreements between the Parties existing at the time when these Clauses are agreed or entered into thereafter, these Clauses shall prevail.

SECTION II - OBLIGATION OF THE PARTIES

Clause 5 - Description of processing(s)

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 6 - Obligations of the Parties

6.1 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 Regulation (EU) 2016/679 / Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 or the applicable Union or Member State data protection provisions.

6.2 Purpose limitation

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

6.3 Duration of the processing of personal data

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

6.4 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 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.

6.5 Sensitive Data

ANNEX II: DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESSING

1 - Subject matter and duration of the data processing

(a) The Processor shall process personal data on behalf and in accordance with the instructions of the Controller.

(b) The subject-matter of the processing is to match data provided by Controller with bid requests on supply side platforms to deliver online advertising in order to re-engage Controller’s users or acquire new users as agreed upon in the Principal Agreement.

(c) The duration of this Agreement corresponds to the duration of the Principal Agreement.

2 - Nature and purpose of the data processing

The nature and purpose of the processing of personal data by the Processor is specified in the Principal Agreement. The Principal Agreement, according to the type of campaign chosen by the Controller, may include some or all of the following activities and purposes:

• the provision of advertising identifiers (IDFA, AAID) from Controller to Processor (and vice versa for reporting purposes) in encrypted form via a secure interface provided by Processor;
• the creation of a database based on the collected data in order to provide services for the Controller (e.g. user segmentation);
• the recognition of these users on the publisher and supply side platforms;
• the targeting of these users with personalized marketing messages, and/or
• matching of advertising identifiers for the purpose of excluding known users, and
• the processing of IP addresses, Click ID, specified URL, and user agent for purposes of displaying the advertising.

3 - Categories of data subjects:

The categories of data subjects include:

• end users of the apps of the Controller, its affiliates and counterparties

4 - Types of personal data

The following types of personal data shall be processed under this Agreement:

• advertising identifier (such as IDFA and AAID), if provided
• IP addresses, Click ID, specified URL, and User Agent

From time to time, the Controller may supply the Processor with additional, so-called attribution data which typically relates to the behavior of users inside the apps of the Controller, its affiliates and counterparties. This data may consist of

• installation and first opening of an app on user’s mobile device;
• user interactions within an app (e.g. in-app purchases, registration);
• information regarding which advertisements users have seen or clicked on;
• certain metadata, such as timestamp, device type and model, app and app version, country.

ANNEX III: TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES INCLUDING TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES TO ENSURE THE SECURITY OF THE DATA

The Processor guarantees that the following technical and organizational measures have been taken:

A. PSEUDONYMIZATION MEASURES

Measures that reduce direct references to persons during processing in such a way that it is only possible to associate data with a specific person if additional information is included. The additional information must be kept separately from the pseudonym by appropriate technical and organizational measures.

Description of the pseudonymization:

Processor does not collect, process or store any data that would allow association with a specific person with a pseudonym as further data points are unavailable to Processor.

For internal and external aggregated reporting pseudonyms are dropped therefore anonymizing the data.

B. ENCRYPTION MEASURES

Measures or operations in which a clearly legible text/information is converted into an illegible, i.e. not easily interpreted, character string (secret text) by means of an encryption method (cryptosystem).

Description of the encryption measure(s):

Processor uses TLS (1.2) for all communication that does not use a private channel.

Data at rest is encrypted using standard block encryption algorithms.

C. MEASURES TO ENSURE CONFIDENTIALITY

1. Physical access control

Measures that physically deny unauthorized persons access to IT systems and data processing equipment used to process personal data, as well as to confidential files and data storage media.

Description of physical access control:

Processor’s office is protected by an electronic door lock system. Tokens to open doors are assigned to individual employees on an as needed basis and can be centrally revoked on demand at any time without access to the token. Lock access is centrally logged.

Processor’s data center providing sub-processors protects Processor’s servers against any physical access besides sub-processors maintenance staff employing industry standard data center protection techniques.

2. Logical access control

Measures to prevent unauthorized persons from processing or using data which is protected by data privacy laws.

Description of logical access control system:

Processor uses a centrally managed SSO solution with 2FA support. The system enforces personal and individual login user credentials with strong password rules and regular password changes.

Authentication attempts are logged. After a number of unsuccessful attempts credentials are suspended temporarily.

Access is granted on a as needed basis using a role based rights management system.

A standardized employee on- and offboarding process is in place to ensure access rights are only granted as long as necessary and based on the role of the employee.

Production systems are completely separated from other company systems and only support public/private key based authentication. Keys are managed centrally and only employees that need to interact with production systems (developers, ops) hold time limited keys.

Data at rest is encrypted.

3. Data access control

Measures to ensure that persons authorized to use data processing systems can only access personal data according to their access rights, so that data cannot be read, copied, changed or removed without authorization during processing, use and storage.

Description of data access control:

Processor uses a role based approach to determine access rights for all user and system combinations. Roles are based on job function and defined responsibilities using the concepts of need-to-know and least-privilege. They are assigned during the onboarding process and reviewed if the job function changes or if the employees role changes. Role application, approval, allocation and reset are reviewed and signed off by the responsible manager. Granted roles are tied to a personal identifier and an account. Resource authorization is tied to specific roles. If the foundation for an authorization ceases to apply, the authorization/role is withdrawn immediately.

Access to personal data via the Remerge Platform is limited to operational personnel and restricted in the scope of access capabilities to the minimum need to fulfil operational duties.

Interaction with Processor’s systems is logged in an immutable log and can be audited afterwards.

To ensure that data can not be read or copied by unauthorized personnel, Processor encrypts data in transit (HTTPS) and at rest.

4. Separation rule

Measures to ensure that data collected for different purposes are processed separately and separated from other data and systems in such a way as to preclude the unplanned use of such data for other purposes.

Description of the separation control process:

Processor employs different data processing systems for different purposes. These systems are architecturally (logical and physically) separated. All systems require a valid authorization to be accessed.

Changes to the structure of Processor’s systems that affect data separation are documented in a revision safe manner and follow a strict review process by the technical operations personnel.

To ensure against unintentional amalgamation of data, Processor separates development, testing, staging and production environments.

Controller data is logically separated.

D. MEASURES TO ENSURE INTEGRITY

1. Data integrity

Measures to ensure that stored personal data cannot be corrupted by means of a malfunctioning of the system.

Description of data integrity:

Processor employs an automated testing system for new releases which verifies the correctness of the changed component. Components that fail these tests will not be deployed to a production environment.

Changes to Processor’s main database are logged, can be audited and rolled back on a per change basis.

To ensure against unintentional data corruption the production system is segregated from other environments.

2. Transmission control

Measures to ensure that it is possible to verify and establish to which bodies personal data may be or have been transmitted or made available using data communication equipment.

Description of transmission control:

Processor offers Controllers the ability to access their own data via several APIs. Access to these APIs is governed by a per Controller authentication and authorization process. Transactions are logged and are available for auditing.

Data that is transmitted to Controller by Processor’s operations personnel is governed by a transport process with individual responsibilities (encryption & signing).

3. Transport control

Measures to ensure that the confidentiality and integrity of data is protected during transmission of personal data and transport of data carriers.

Description of transport control:

Personal data that is transmitted (sent and received) to or from Processor over public channels is encrypted (TLS 1.2). If changes to the data are detected during transmission the data is discarded and the channel is considered compromised.

4. Input control

Measures to ensure that it can be subsequently verified and ascertained whether and by whom personal data have been entered or modified in data processing systems.

Description of the input control process:

Personal data that is submitted by Controller using Processor’s APIs is verified and associated with its source by a Controller specific verification token.

All interactions with the Processor’s main database via the Remerge Plattform are verified and logged. This change log includes information about who added, modified or deleted data and what point in time.

E. MEASURES TO ENSURE AVAILABILITY AND RESILIENCE

1. Availability control

Measures to ensure that personal data are protected against accidental destruction or loss.

Description of the availability control system:

To ensure against a loss of data all storage systems are multi-way redundant (hardware and logical). In addition data is automatically backed up in regular intervals to physically separated systems and can be restored on demand. Backups are encrypted.

Furthermore Processor’s data center sub-processors provide a highly available infrastructure that is secured against major physical risks by providing: alarm systems, fire alarms, air conditioning, waterproof server rooms, uninterrupted power supplies and redundant upstream connectivity.

2. Quick recovery

Measures to ensure the ability to quickly restore the availability of and access to personal data and used systems in the event of a physical or technical incident.

Description of the measures for quick recovery:

Due to the redundant storage a quick recovery is ensured.

3. Reliability

Measures to ensure that the functions of the system are available and malfunctions are reported.

Description of measures for reliability:

All systems in the Processor’s infrastructure are monitored with the help of a software based system. An automated alerting system notifies Processor’s personnel 24/7 via SMS, eMail, call or custom notifications in case any systems behave outside of well defined normal conditions. In case of a malfunction Processor’s personnel follow a standardized incident management & communication process which clearly defines steps and responsibilities

4. Endpoint Protection Measures

To enhance the security of all employee desktops, Processor has implemented an antimalware solution that routinely scans for viruses, ensuring that threats are identified and mitigated promptly. This measure complements the existing access control and data integrity frameworks by providing an additional layer of protection against malicious software.

5. Device Management and Security

Processor has enabled Mobile Device Management to manage and secure company devices effectively. This system provides comprehensive control over devices, ensuring they comply with Processor’s security policies and standards. It also facilitates the deployment of security updates and patches, further securing the devices against vulnerabilities.

F. MEASURES FOR THE REGULAR TESTING AND EVALUATION OF THE SECURITY OF DATA PROCESSING

1. Verification process

Measures to ensure that the data are processed securely and in compliance with data protection regulations.

Description of verification process:

Processor employs an external auditing service that regularly verifies compliance with data protection regulations. Furthermore a regular internal audit by Processor’s legal department ensures compliance.

Processor’s personnel are regularly trained with regard to data protection and security best practices.

The Controller is entitled to carry out an inspection of compliance with the provisions on data protection and the contractual agreements to the extent required, either himself or through third parties.

The Controller shall notify the Processor immediately of any errors or irregularities detected in relation to the processing of personal data by the Processor.

2. Order control

Measures to ensure that personal data processed on behalf of the Controller can only be processed in accordance with the instructions of the Controller.

Description of the order control measures:

The Controller is entitled to issue instructions concerning the nature, scale and method of data processing. Upon request by the Controller, the Processor shall confirm verbal instructions immediately in writing or in text form (e.g. by email).

Instructions received by the Controller are documented and acted upon by the Processor as applicable. This includes data request, retention and deletion policies.

Insofar as the Controller deems it necessary, persons authorized to issue instructions to Processor may be appointed.

The Controller is entitled to carry out an inspection of compliance with the provisions on data protection and the contractual agreements to the extent required, either himself or through third parties.

G. ORGANIZATIONAL MEASURES
