Human Rights & Modern Slavery Statement

Date adopted: 18th July 2023

This statement is published on behalf of Exiger Limited (Company 8613726) pursuant to section 54 of the UK Modern Slavery Act (2015). Exiger Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Exiger Holdings, Inc., a company headquartered in New York.

In conducting our business, Exiger is committed to protecting and maintaining all internationally recognised human rights with respect to our employees, the communities in which we operate, and the communities within which our supply chains operate globally. This statement reflects our approach to both modern slavery and human rights, and details the action Exiger Limited has taken to address the risk and steps in prevention of modern slavery in our operations and supply chain, and how we intend to improve these efforts moving forward.

Who We Are and What We Do

Exiger is revolutionizing the way corporations, government agencies and banks navigate risk and compliance in their third-parties, supply chains and customers through its software and tech-enabled solutions. Exiger’s mission is to make the world a safe and transparent place to succeed. Emboldening its 550 customers across the globe, including 150 in the Fortune 500 and over 50 government agencies, with award-winning AI technology, Exiger leads the way in ESG, cyber, financial crime, third-party and supply chain management. Its work has been recognized by 40+ AI, RegTech and Supply Chain partner awards.

By the end of the 2022 financial year, Exiger employed approximately 800 people, with offices in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Romania, and Singapore. Alongside our staff, independent contractors and data service suppliers play a key role in our client-facing teams and in providing our diligence and technology services.

Our Approach to Human Rights and Modern Slavery

Exiger is led by CEO and President Brandon Daniels, who also leads the Board of Directors of Exiger Limited, our UK-based affiliate. Exiger’s Board of Directors provides both leadership and a strong tone from the top regarding ethical conduct.

Exiger was founded to conduct the largest ever court-appointed monitorship of a global financial institution. We are committed to conducting business in a responsible manner. Integrity—one of our company’s seven guiding principles—is embedded in Exiger’s culture through our Code of Conduct, which outlines the values and high ethical standards of both personal and corporate conduct expected of everyone who works for or with Exiger.

Exiger is committed to ensuring that no modern slavery or human trafficking takes place within our business. We have a zero-tolerance policy towards forced or bonded labour; we ensure all our terms of employment are voluntary and adhere to local laws with respect to minimum age requirements, wages, overtime, and working hours; and we expect the same from our suppliers, contractors, and third parties. Further, Exiger employees are encouraged to speak up and to raise any concerns of potential or actual ethical conduct breaches.

Our Assessment of the Risk to our Organisation and Supply Chains and Supplier Due Diligence

Exiger has assessed our organisation’s modern slavery risk to be relatively low given the nature of our service offerings. Exiger is a supply chain and third-party risk management technology company. Exiger employs a highly skilled workforce, and according to the Global Slavery Index, operates almost exclusively in countries with a lower prevalence risk of modern slavery.

Moreover, Exiger ensures all permanent staff and independent contractors undergo a criminal background check prior to onboarding. Additionally, Exiger subjects its diligence suppliers to enhanced due diligence through Exiger’s bespoke third party management software, DDIQ and Insight 3PM. This technology uses artificial intelligence to conduct public records research and negative news screening, as well as risk rates our suppliers to enable Exiger to closely monitor higher-risk suppliers. Our highest risk suppliers are subject to daily negative news screening to ensure we can quickly identify and monitor any new risk.

Exiger’s operational procurement consists primarily of office facility services, such as security and cleaning, and of product purchases, such as laptops, office supplies, and marketing materials. To minimize the risk of modern slavery further down these supply chains, Exiger ensures responsible procurement practices, such as avoiding unreasonable expectations and excessive downward pressure on pricing.

Exiger Limited’s London office obtains facilities services from one supplier. This supplier is a signatory to the UN Global Compact, a public declaration of their commitment to business integrity. The supplier has published their own Modern Slavery Statement explaining the steps they have taken to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking from their supply chains. We will continue to review this relationship to ensure such standards are maintained.

Our Progress During the Previous Financial Year

Although Exiger has never identified a human rights breach within our organisation or our supply chains, we are not complacent. During the past few years we have:

Updated our Code of Conduct to include specific commitments we have made for addressing ethical issues, including modern slavery and labor rights;
Updated our procurement process to ensure a more robust due diligence process during new supplier onboarding. In the event that we are considering entering into a high-risk relationship with any supplier, such relationship will be vetted by our internal Client Selection and Conflict Management Committee. If accepted, the relationship will be subject to ongoing monitoring to ensure compliance with our high ethical standards;
Established a Compliance Oversight Group (COG) to provide oversight of Exiger’s vendor management and risk assessment processes concerning modern slavery and labor rights. The COG is also responsible for providing training to Exiger employees;
Implemented an anonymous ethics and compliance reporting hotline, available 24 hours a day to all Exiger employees, in all our host country languages, to ensure that any individual wishing to submit an incident report may do so without fear of retribution; and
Reviewed our vendors for branded merchandise to identify and assess modern slavery.

Our Plans for the Future

We are committed to continually improving our efforts to identify, address, and prevent modern slavery. Moving forward, we commit to:

Providing updated modern slavery guidance to our operational procurement staff to further increase awareness of the risks within our supply chains. We will encourage greater consideration of ethical performance as a deciding factor in procurement selection; and
Monitoring the supply chain of Exiger-branded merchandise; this includes reviewing our vendors, identifying product sources, and identifying and addressing potential modern slavery risks further down the chain.

Exiger Limited’s Board of Directors reviewed and approved this statement and as a declaration of its commitment to address and prevent modern slavery within our business and our supply chains,

Brandon Daniels signed this statement on the behalf of the Board of Directors on July 18, 2023.

Personal Data Collection and Use

Exiger advises financial institutions and multinational corporations concerning regulatory and financial crimes risk and compliance and provides a range of related investigative, due diligence, consulting, risk management and compliance services. When Exiger processes data received from a client or prospective client (“Client Data”), Exiger does so only pursuant to the client’s or prospective client’s instructions and prior authorization.

Client Data may include Personal Data. We may receive the following categories of Personal Data in the US: name, residence and business address, national/tax identification number, email addresses, date of birth, and/or scans of relevant identification cards/documents. We process Personal Data for the following purposes: advising financial institutions and multinational corporations concerning regulatory and financial crimes risk and compliance and providing a range of related investigative, due diligence, consulting, risk management and compliance services.

Exiger will only process Personal Data in ways that are compatible with the purpose that Exiger collected it for, or for purposes the individual later authorizes. Before we use your Personal Data for a purpose that is materially different than the purpose we collected it for or that you later authorized, we will provide you with the opportunity to opt out. Exiger maintains reasonable procedures to help ensure that Personal Data is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and current.

If we collect sensitive Personal Data, we will obtain your opt-in consent where the Data Privacy Framework requires, including if we disclose your sensitive Personal Data to third parties, or before we use your sensitive Personal Data for a different purpose than we collected it for or than you later authorized.

Exiger processes only the Personal Data that its clients or prospective clients have chosen to share with Exiger. Exiger has no direct or contractual relationship with the subject of this Personal Data (the “Data Subject”). As a result, when Client Data includes Personal Data, the client is solely responsible for satisfying all legal obligations owed directly to the Data Subject under applicable data protection laws.

It is the Exiger client’s or prospective client’s responsibility to ensure that Personal Data it collected can be legally collected in the country of origin. The client or prospective client is also responsible for providing to the Data Subject any notices required by applicable law, for obtaining consent where legally required, and for responding appropriately to the Data Subject’s request to exercise his or her rights under applicable data protection law with respect to Personal Data.

Exiger is not responsible for its client’s or prospective client’s privacy policies or practices or for the client’s or prospective client’s compliance with them. Exiger does not review, comment upon, or monitor its client’s or prospective client’s privacy policies or the client’s or prospective client’s compliance with such policies. Exiger also does not review instructions or authorizations to Exiger to determine whether the instructions or authorizations are in compliance with, or conflict with, the terms of a client’s or prospective client’s published privacy policy or of any notice provided to Data Subjects.

Under the data protections law of the EU member states, the UK, and Switzerland, a “Controller” is an organization that determines the purposes for which and the manner in which Personal Data are to be processed. A “Processor” processes Personal Data on behalf of a Controller, and only in accordance with the Controller’s instructions. Exiger acts as a Processor when it advises a client with respect to matters involving Client Data that includes Personal Data.

Data Transfers to Third Parties

Third-Party Agents or Service Providers. We may transfer Personal Data to our third-party agents or service providers who perform functions on our behalf, including contractors who provide due diligence services. We enter into written agreements with those third-party agents and service providers requiring them to provide the same level of protection the Data Privacy Framework requires and limiting their use of the data to the specified services provided on our behalf. We take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that third-party agents and service providers process Personal Data in accordance with our Data Privacy Framework obligations and to stop and remediate any unauthorized processing. In cases of onward transfer to third parties of data of individuals in the EU, UK, or Switzerland received pursuant to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework program (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy, Exiger is potentially liable.

Transfers to Exiger Affiliates. If we transfer your Personal Data to one of our affiliated entities within our corporate group, we will take steps to ensure that your Personal Data is protected with the same level of protection the Data Privacy Framework requires.

Disclosures for National Security or Law Enforcement. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose your Personal Data in response to valid requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

If requested to remove data, we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Your right to access your Personal Data may be restricted in exceptional circumstances, including, but not limited to, when the burden or expense of providing this access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question, or when the rights of persons other than you would be violated by the provision of such access. If we determine that your access should be restricted in a particular instance, we will provide you with an explanation of our determination and respond to any inquiries you may have.

Data Retention

Exiger takes reasonable and appropriate measures to comply with the requirement under Data Privacy Framework to retain Personal Data in identifiable form only for as long as it serves a purpose of processing. Specifically, Personal Data will be retained in accordance with our business purposes and our obligations to comply with legal requirements and professional standards, unless a longer retention period is otherwise permitted by law and its retention adheres to the Data Privacy Framework program Principles.

This Human Resources & Job Applicant Data Privacy Framework Policy (“Policy”) describes how Exiger LLC and its subsidiaries and affiliates in the United States (“US”) (“Exiger,” “Company,” “we,” or “us”) collect, use, and disclose certain personally identifiable information that we receive in the US from our affiliates, including data from the European Union (“EU”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), and Switzerland (“Human Resources Data”).

In addition, for transfers to the US and/or countries viewed as inadequate, we have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your Personal Data will remain protected in accordance with this Human Resources & Job Applicant Data Privacy Framework Policy and as required by applicable data protection law. These include implementing an adequate method of transfer, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, for transfers of Personal Data with our third-party service providers and partners, further details of which can be provided upon request.

Human Resources Data Collection and Use

We may receive the following categories of Human Resources Data in the US: name, email, address, telephone number, date of birth, national identification number, gender, nationality. We process Human Resources Data of our employees, contractors, and job candidates for the following purposes: recruiting, onboarding background checks, making benefits available to them, and otherwise enabling them to do their jobs.

Exiger will only process Human Resources Data in ways that are compatible with the purpose that Exiger collected it for, or for purposes the individual later authorizes.

If we collect sensitive Human Resources Data, we will obtain your opt-in consent where the Data Privacy Framework requires, including if we disclose your sensitive Human Resources Data to third parties, or before we use your sensitive Human Resources Data for a different purpose than we collected it for or than you later authorized. We do not seek to obtain and will not collect such data about a job candidate unless permitted to do so by applicable laws (e.g., US equal opportunity monitoring).

Under the data protection laws of the EU member states, the UK, and Switzerland, a “Controller” is an organization that determines the purposes for which and the manner in which Human Resources Data are to be processed. A “Processor” processes Human Resources Data on behalf of a Controller, and only in accordance with the Controller’s instructions.

recordkeeping in relation to recruiting and hiring;
ensuring compliance with legal requirements, including diversity and inclusion requirements and practices;
conducting criminal history checks as permitted by applicable law;
protecting our legal rights to the extent authorized or permitted by law; or

If you elect to join a recruiting program, we may retain your personal data to consider you for future employment opportunities and for a period of time specific to that program, unless you decide to opt-out prior to such time.

You are not required to provide any requested information to us, but failing to do so may result in not being able to continue your candidacy for the job for which you have applied.

We do not make recruiting or hiring decisions based solely on automated decision-making.

3.1 Data Security. Exiger shall maintain a privacy and security program that includes reasonable and appropriate measures — including technical, physical, and organizational safeguards taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing, as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons — to protect against reasonably foreseeable risks to the security, confidentiality, integrity and resilience of Personal Data, which risks could result in the unauthorized disclosure, access, use, alteration, loss, destruction or other compromise of the Personal Data, including a Personal Data breach, as breach is defined under applicable data protection law.

SECTION II – OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
Clause 8
Data protection safeguards
The data exporter warrants that it has used reasonable efforts to determine that the data importer is able, through the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures, to satisfy its obligations under these Clauses.

8.1 Instructions
(a) The data importer shall process the personal data only on documented instructions from the data exporter. The data exporter may give such instructions throughout the duration of the contract.

(b) The data importer shall immediately inform the data exporter if it is unable to follow those instructions.

8.2 Purpose limitation
The data importer shall process the personal data only for the specific purpose(s) of the transfer, as set out in Annex I.B, unless on further instructions from the data exporter.

8.3 Transparency
On request, the data exporter shall make a copy of these Clauses, including the Appendix as completed by the Parties, available to the data subject free of charge. To the extent necessary to protect business secrets or other confidential information, including the measures described in Annex II and personal data, the data exporter may redact part of the text of the Appendix to these Clauses prior to sharing a copy, but shall provide a meaningful summary where the data subject would otherwise not be able to understand the content or exercise his/her rights. On request, the Parties shall provide the data subject with the reasons for the redactions, to the extent possible without revealing the redacted information. This Clause is without prejudice to the obligations of the data exporter under Articles 13 and 14 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

8.4 Accuracy
If the data importer becomes aware that the personal data it has received is inaccurate, or has become outdated, it shall inform the data exporter without undue delay. In this case, the data importer shall cooperate with the data exporter to erase or rectify the data.

8.5 Duration of processing and erasure or return of data
Processing by the data importer shall only take place for the duration specified in Annex I.B. After the end of the provision of the processing services, the data importer shall, at the choice of the data exporter, delete all personal data processed on behalf of the data exporter and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, or return to the data exporter all personal data processed on its behalf and delete existing copies. Until the data is deleted or returned, the data importer shall continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses. In case of local laws applicable to the data importer that prohibit return or deletion of the personal data, the data importer warrants that it will continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses and will only process it to the extent and for as long as required under that local law. This is without prejudice to Clause 14, in particular the requirement for the data importer under Clause 14(e) to notify the data exporter throughout the duration of the contract if it has reason to believe that it is or has become subject to laws or practices not in line with the requirements under Clause 14(a).

8.6 Security of processing
(a) The data importer and, during transmission, also the data exporter shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the security of the data, including protection against a breach of security leading to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access to that data (hereinafter “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 purpose(s) of processing and the risks involved in the processing for the data subjects. The Parties shall in particular consider having recourse to encryption or pseudonymisation, including during transmission, where the purpose of processing can be fulfilled in that manner. In case of pseudonymisation, the additional information for attributing the personal data to a specific data subject shall, where possible, remain under the exclusive control of the data exporter. In complying with its obligations under this paragraph, the data importer shall at least implement the technical and organisational measures specified in Annex II. The data importer shall carry out regular checks to ensure that these measures continue to provide an appropriate level of security.

(b) The data importer shall grant access to the personal data to members of its personnel only to the extent strictly necessary for the implementation, management and monitoring of the contract. It shall ensure that persons authorised to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

(c) In the event of a personal data breach concerning personal data processed by the data importer under these Clauses, the data importer shall take appropriate measures to address the breach, including measures to mitigate its adverse effects. The data importer shall also notify the data exporter without undue delay after having become aware of the breach. Such notification shall contain the details of a contact point where more information can be obtained, a description of the nature of the breach (including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects and personal data records concerned), its likely consequences, and the measures taken or proposed to address the breach including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects. Where, and in so far as, it is not possible to provide all 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.

(d) The data importer shall cooperate with and assist the data exporter to enable the data exporter to comply with its obligations under Regulation (EU) 2016/679, in particular to notify the competent supervisory authority and the affected data subjects, taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to the data importer.

8.7 Sensitive data
Where the transfer involves personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, genetic data, or biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or a person’s sex life or sexual orientation, or data relating to criminal convictions and offences (hereinafter “sensitive data”), the data importer shall apply the specific restrictions and/or additional safeguards described in Annex I.B.

8.8 Onward transfers
The data importer shall only disclose the personal data to a third party on documented instructions from the data exporter. In addition, the data may only be disclosed to a third party located outside the European Union (in the same country as the data importer or in another third country, hereinafter “onward transfer”) if the third party is or agrees to be bound by these Clauses, under the appropriate Module, or if:

(a) the onward transfer is to a country benefitting from an adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 that covers the onward transfer;

(b) the third party otherwise ensures appropriate safeguards pursuant to Articles 46 or 47 Regulation of (EU) 2016/679 with respect to the processing in question;

(c) the onward transfer is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims in the context of specific administrative, regulatory or judicial proceedings; or

(d) the onward transfer is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.

Any onward transfer is subject to compliance by the data importer with all the other safeguards under these Clauses, in particular purpose limitation.

8.9 Documentation and compliance
(a) The data importer shall promptly and adequately deal with enquiries from the data exporter that relate to the processing under these Clauses.

(b) The Parties shall be able to demonstrate compliance with these Clauses. In particular, the data importer shall keep appropriate documentation on the processing activities carried out on behalf of the data exporter.

(c) The data importer shall make available to the data exporter all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set out in these Clauses and at the data exporter’s request, allow for 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 audit, the data exporter may take into account relevant certifications held by the data importer.

(d) The data exporter may choose to conduct the audit by itself or mandate an independent auditor. Audits may include inspections at the premises or physical facilities of the data importer and shall, where appropriate, be carried out with reasonable notice.

(e) The Parties shall make the information referred to in paragraphs (b) and (c), including the results of any audits, available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

Clause 9
Use of sub-processors

9.1 GENERAL WRITTEN AUTHORISATION The data importer has the data exporter’s general authorisation for the engagement of sub-processor(s) from an agreed list. The data importer shall specifically inform the data exporter in writing of any intended changes to that list through the addition or replacement of sub-processors in advance, thereby giving the data exporter sufficient time to be able to object to such changes prior to the engagement of the sub-processor(s). The data importer shall provide the data exporter with the information necessary to enable the data exporter to exercise its right to object.

9.2 Where the data importer engages a sub-processor to carry out specific processing activities (on behalf of the data exporter), it shall do so by way of a written contract that provides for, in substance, the same data protection obligations as those binding the data importer under these Clauses, including in terms of third-party beneficiary rights for data subjects.^[1] The Parties agree that, by complying with this Clause, the data importer fulfils its obligations under Clause 8.8. The data importer shall ensure that the sub-processor complies with the obligations to which the data importer is subject pursuant to these Clauses.

[1] This requirement may be satisfied by the sub-processor acceding to these Clauses under the appropriate Module, in accordance with Clause 7.

9.3 The data importer shall provide, at the data exporter’s request, a copy of such a sub-processor agreement and any subsequent amendments to the data exporter. To the extent necessary to protect business secrets or other confidential information, including personal data, the data importer may redact the text of the agreement prior to sharing a copy.

9.4 The data importer shall remain fully responsible to the data exporter for the performance of the sub-processor’s obligations under its contract with the data importer. The data importer shall notify the data exporter of any failure by the sub-processor to fulfil its obligations under that contract.

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

Clause 10
Data subject rights
(a) The data importer shall promptly notify the data exporter of any request it has received from a data subject. It shall not respond to that request itself unless it has been authorised to do so by the data exporter.

(b) The data importer shall assist the data exporter in fulfilling its obligations to respond to data subjects’ requests for the exercise of their rights under Regulation (EU) 2016/679. In this regard, the Parties shall set out in Annex II the appropriate technical and organisational measures, taking into account the nature of the processing, by which the assistance shall be provided, as well as the scope and the extent of the assistance required.

(c) In fulfilling its obligations under paragraphs (a) and (b), the data importer shall comply with the instructions from the data exporter.

Clause 11

It shall provide the supervisory authority with written confirmation that the necessary actions have been taken.

SECTION III – LOCAL LAWS AND OBLIGATIONS IN CASE OF
ACCESS BY PUBLIC AUTHORITIES

Clause 14
Local laws and practices affecting compliance with the Clauses
The Parties warrant that they have no reason to believe that the laws and practices in the third country of destination applicable to the processing of the personal data by the data importer, including any requirements to disclose personal data or measures authorising access by public authorities, prevent the data importer from fulfilling its obligations under these Clauses. This is based on the understanding that laws and practices that respect the essence of the fundamental rights and freedoms and do not exceed what is necessary and proportionate in a democratic society to safeguard one of the objectives listed in Article 23(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, are not in contradiction with these Clauses.

The Parties declare that in providing the warranty in paragraph (a), they have taken due account in particular of the following elements:

(a) the specific circumstances of the transfer, including the length of the processing chain, the number of actors involved and the transmission channels used; intended onward transfers; the type of recipient; the purpose of processing; the categories and format of the transferred personal data; the economic sector in which the transfer occurs; the storage location of the data transferred;

(b) the laws and practices of the third country of destination– including those requiring the disclosure of data to public authorities or authorising access by such authorities – relevant in light of the specific circumstances of the transfer, and the applicable limitations and safeguards;

(c) any relevant contractual, technical or organisational safeguards put in place to supplement the safeguards under these Clauses, including measures applied during transmission and to the processing of the personal data in the country of destination.

The data importer warrants that, in carrying out the assessment under paragraph (b), it has made its best efforts to provide the data exporter with relevant information and agrees that it will continue to cooperate with the data exporter in ensuring compliance with these Clauses.

The Parties agree to document the assessment under paragraph (b) and make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter promptly if, after having agreed to these Clauses and for the duration of the contract, it has reason to believe that it is or has become subject to laws or practices not in line with the requirements under paragraph (a), including following a change in the laws of the third country or a measure (such as a disclosure request) indicating an application of such laws in practice that is not in line with the requirements in paragraph (a).

Following a notification pursuant to paragraph (e), or if the data exporter otherwise has reason to believe that the data importer can no longer fulfil its obligations under these Clauses, the data exporter shall promptly identify appropriate measures (e.g. technical or organisational measures to ensure security and confidentiality) to be adopted by the data exporter and/or data importer to address the situation. The data exporter shall suspend the data transfer if it considers that no appropriate safeguards for such transfer can be ensured, or if instructed by the competent supervisory authority to do so. In this case, the data exporter shall be entitled to terminate the contract, insofar as it concerns the processing of personal data under these Clauses. If the contract involves more than two Parties, the data exporter may exercise this right to termination only with respect to the relevant Party, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise. Where the contract is terminated pursuant to this Clause, Clause 16(d) and (e) shall apply.

Clause 15
Obligations of the data importer in case of access by public authorities
15.1 Notification

(a) The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter and, where possible, the data subject promptly (if necessary with the help of the data exporter) if it:

(i) receives a legally binding request from a public authority, including judicial authorities, under the laws of the country of destination for the disclosure of personal data transferred pursuant to these Clauses; such notification shall include information about the personal data requested, the requesting authority, the legal basis for the request and the response provided; or

(ii) becomes aware of any direct access by public authorities to personal data transferred pursuant to these Clauses in accordance with the laws of the country of destination; such notification shall include all information available to the importer.

(b) If the data importer is prohibited from notifying the data exporter and/or the data subject under the laws of the country of destination, the data importer agrees to use its best efforts to obtain a waiver of the prohibition, with a view to communicating as much information as possible, as soon as possible. The data importer agrees to document its best efforts in order to be able to demonstrate them on request of the data exporter.

(c) Where permissible under the laws of the country of destination, the data importer agrees to provide the data exporter, at regular intervals for the duration of the contract, with as much relevant information as possible on the requests received (in particular, number of requests, type of data requested, requesting authority/ies, whether requests have been challenged and the outcome of such challenges, etc.).

(d) The data importer agrees to preserve the information pursuant to paragraphs (a) to (c) for the duration of the contract and make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

(e) Paragraphs (a) to (c) are without prejudice to the obligation of the data importer pursuant to Clause 14(e) and Clause 16 to inform the data exporter promptly where it is unable to comply with these Clauses.

15.2 Review of legality and data minimisation

(a) The data importer agrees to review the legality of the request for disclosure, in particular whether it remains within the powers granted to the requesting public authority, and to challenge the request if, after careful assessment, it concludes that there are reasonable grounds to consider that the request is unlawful under the laws of the country of destination, applicable obligations under international law and principles of international comity. The data importer shall, under the same conditions, pursue possibilities of appeal. When challenging a request, the data importer shall seek interim measures with a view to suspending the effects of the request until the competent judicial authority has decided on its merits. It shall not disclose the personal data requested until required to do so under the applicable procedural rules. These requirements are without prejudice to the obligations of the data importer under Clause 14(e).

(b) The data importer agrees to document its legal assessment and any challenge to the request for disclosure and, to the extent permissible under the laws of the country of destination, make the documentation available to the data exporter. It shall also make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

(c) The data importer agrees to provide the minimum amount of information permissible when responding to a request for disclosure, based on a reasonable interpretation of the request.

SECTION IV – FINAL PROVISIONS

Clause 16
Non-compliance with the Clauses and termination

(a) The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter if it is unable to comply with these Clauses, for whatever reason.

(b) In the event that the data importer is in breach of these Clauses or unable to comply with these Clauses, the data exporter shall suspend the transfer of personal data to the data importer until compliance is again ensured or the contract is terminated. This is without prejudice to Clause 14(f).

(c) The data exporter shall be entitled to terminate the contract, insofar as it concerns the processing of personal data under these Clauses, where:

(i) the data exporter has suspended the transfer of personal data to the data importer pursuant to paragraph (b) and compliance with these Clauses is not restored within a reasonable time and in any event within one month of suspension;

(ii) the data importer is in substantial or persistent breach of these Clauses; or

(iii) the data importer fails to comply with a binding decision of a competent court or supervisory authority regarding its obligations under these Clauses.

In these cases, it shall inform the competent supervisory authority of such non-compliance. Where the contract involves more than two Parties, the data exporter may exercise this right to termination only with respect to the relevant Party, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise.

(d) Personal data that has been transferred prior to the termination of the contract pursuant to paragraph(c) shall at the choice of the data exporter immediately be returned to the data exporter or deleted in its entirety. The same shall apply to any copies of the data. The data importer shall certify the deletion of the data to the data exporter. Until the data is deleted or returned, the data importer shall continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses. In case of local laws applicable to the data importer that prohibit the return or deletion of the transferred personal data, the data importer warrants that it will continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses and will only process the data to the extent and for as long as required under that local law.

(e) Either Party may revoke its agreement to be bound by these Clauses where (i) the European Commission adopts a decision pursuant to Article 45(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 that covers the transfer of personal data to which these Clauses apply; or (ii) Regulation (EU) 2016/679 becomes part of the legal framework of the country to which the personal data is transferred. This is without prejudice to other obligations applying to the processing in question under Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

Clause 17
Governing law
These Clauses shall be governed by the law of the EU Member State in which the data exporter is established. Where such law does not allow for third-party beneficiary rights, they shall be governed by the law of another EU Member State that does allow for third-party beneficiary rights. The Parties agree that this shall be the law of Romania.

Clause 18
Choice of forum and jurisdiction

(a) Any dispute arising from these Clauses shall be resolved by the courts of an EU Member State.

(b) The Parties agree that those shall be the courts of Romania.

(c) A data subject may also bring legal proceedings against the data exporter and/or data importer before the courts of the Member State in which he/she has his/her habitual residence.

(d) The Parties agree to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of such courts.

ANNEX II – TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES
INCLUDING TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES TO
ENSURE THE SECURITY OF THE DATA

Description of the technical and organisational measures implemented by the data importer(s) (including any relevant certifications) to ensure an appropriate level of security, taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, and the risks for the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

I. ORGANIZATIONAL MEASURES

A. Information Security Governance
Data importer has established a personnel structure for information security governance, including but not limited to, a designated employee with overall responsibility for information security government (e.g., a chief information security officer) and other personnel with assigned roles and responsibilities for information security. Roles and responsibilities have been formally defined for all members of the information security team and have been documented.

B. Administrative Access Controls

Access Authorization And Workforce Clearance: An employee or contractor will be authorized to access personal data (“Authorized Users”) only if the individual is deemed trustworthy based upon prior service to the data importer or the successful completion of a background check where permitted by applicable law. Data importer permits Authorized Users to access personal data only on a need-to-know basis and only as necessary to perform assigned job responsibilities.
Confidentiality Agreement: Before establishing access for an Authorized User, data importer requires that the Authorized User execute a confidentiality agreement that applies to the personal data or otherwise acknowledges an obligation of confidentiality.
Access Establishment: Data importer separates functions between those authorized to assign access rights and those authorized to establish access to data importer’s information systems.
Review Of Access Rights: On at least a quarterly basis and when an Authorized User changes positions, data importer reviews and, if necessary, revises or terminates the Authorized User’s rights of access to workstations, programs and processes to limit the Authorized User’s access to personal data to the minimum necessary to perform assigned job functions. Data importer will delete any personal data stored on the Authorized User’s computer that no longer is needed by the Authorized User in his or her new position.
Denial Of Access To Terminated Authorized Users: Upon termination of any Authorized User’s relationship with data importer, data importer promptly does the following: (a) terminates the Authorized User’s rights to access personal data and obtains the return of any devices (such as tokens or key cards) used to obtain access to personal data; (b) obtains the return of all keys, key cards, and other devices that permit access to physical locations containing personal data in paper form; (c) ensures that the terminated Authorized User does not have unescorted access to areas containing personal data in paper form; (d) ensures that all personal data is removed from any computer equipment used by the terminated Authorized User before re-issuing that equipment to another Authorized User.

C. Training

Data importer provides (a) initial training to relevant personnel on how to implement and comply with its information security program, including identifying and reporting a personal data breach, and (b) periodic refresher training and security awareness reminders. Data importer permits newly hired Authorized Users to access personal data only after completion of the initial data security training.

D. Security Incident Response

Data importer has created a security incident response team (SIRT) with assigned roles and responsibilities. Data importer has implemented procedures for identifying security incidents, including personal data breaches, and a plan for responding to security incidents. Data importer periodically tests the security incident response plan. Data importer has established a mechanism for employees to report security incidents, including suspected and actual personal data breaches. Data importer requires all employees to immediately report the loss, theft, or other misuse of any equipment on which personal data is stored.

II. TECHNICAL MEASURES

6. Evaluation And Monitoring

Risk Assessment: Data importer has conducted an accurate and thorough assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of personal data. Data importer has implemented policies and procedures to reduce risks and vulnerabilities to personal data to a reasonable and appropriate level. These policies and procedures are designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of personal data and to prevent accidental or unauthorized use, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction.
Evaluation Of Security Policies And Procedures: Data importer periodically reviews and, if necessary, updates the policies and procedures described above, as necessary in response to environmental or operational changes affecting the security of personal data.

E. System Activity Review

Establishment Of Monitoring Procedures: Data importer has (a) enabled logging on computer systems that store personal data; (b) implemented a process for the review of exception reports and/or logs, and (c) developed and documented procedures for the retention of monitoring data.
Monitoring Of System Activity: Data importer periodically reviews information system activity records — including audit logs, access reports, privileged operations, error logs on servers, and security incident tracking reports, and changes to systems security — to ensure that implemented security controls are effective and that personal data has not been potentially compromised. Monitoring includes (a) reviewing changes affecting systems handling authentication, authorization, and auditing; (b) reviewing privileged access to production systems processing personal data; and (c) engaging third parties to perform network vulnerability assessments and penetration testing on a regular basis.
Compliance Review And Third-Party Audits: Data importer periodically reviews compliance with security policies and procedures. Data importer engages a third party, at least annually, to perform an independent audit which includes an assessment of data importer’s information security program. Data importer will make the third-party audit report available to data exporter upon request.

F. Protections Against Malicious Actors

Network Security: Data importer maintains an up-to-date firewall and intrusion detection software. Data importer engages in security patch management to ensure that security patches are installed as soon as is reasonably practicable.
Anti-Malware Protection: Data importer ensures that protections against malicious software (e.g., anti-virus protection, spyware detection software, etc.) are installed before computers and other devices are connected to any of data importer’s networked systems. The software is kept current.

G. Technical Access Controls

Unique User ID/Secure Passwords: All Authorized Users will be assigned a unique user ID and will be required to create a strong/complex password, or to use a biometric identifier, to access data importer’s network. Systems requiring entry of a password suppress, mask or otherwise obscure the password so that it cannot be viewed by an unauthorized person. All passwords are encrypted while in storage. Authorized Users are required to change passwords on a regular basis. Authorized Users are prohibited form sharing passwords with any other person.
Access Restrictions: Data importer has implemented technical controls so that each Authorized User will be able to gain access only to those categories of personal data to which access is necessary to perform assigned job responsibilities.
Encryption: Data importer encrypts personal data in transit, using Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption. Data importer encrypts personal data at rest using 256-bit AES encryption or stronger. Mobile devices and portable electronic storage media used to store personal data must be encrypted.
Remote Access: Data importer permits remote access to its networks only via a Virtual Private Network (“VPN”) or a similar secure means
Secure Disposal: Data importer has established procedures for the secure and permanent destruction of personal data stored in paper and electronic form.

H. Contingency Planning

Back-Ups: Data importer backs up personal data on a regular schedule (e.g., at least every 24 hours). Back-ups are encrypted and stored in a location physically apart from the primary storage. Back-ups permit prompt restoration of personal data in the event of a disaster.
Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery: Data importer has developed and maintains a business continuity/disaster recovery plan to ensure that data importer can promptly resume service and restore data exporter’s access to personal data in the event of a physical or technical incident occurrence (for example, fire, ransomware attack, vandalism, system failure, pandemic flu, and natural disaster).

I. Change and Configuration Management
Data importer maintains policies and procedures for managing changes to production systems, applications, and databases processing personal data and for documenting the changes.

III. PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS

Data importer’s facilities where personal data are physically secured against unauthorized access by, for example, keys, access cards, receptionists, and/or security guards. Data importer requires that all employees where a security badge at all time while on data importer’s premises. Guests and service providers must register at the reception area and are prohibited from unescorted access to data importer’s facility.
All servers and network equipment containing personal data are maintained in a location subject to controlled physical access. Only authorized employees may have unescorted access to secure areas where servers and network equipment are located. Video surveillance cameras monitor secured areas where servers and other network equipment are located.
Only authorized employees may have unescorted access to areas with computers and other electronic resources that permit access to personal data. Access is restricted by a proximity card or key, receptionist, or some similar method. Physical access rights must be promptly terminated when an employee no longer needs physical access to areas containing electronic resources that permit access to personal data
Data exporter requires authorized employees to ensure that all electronic resources permitting access to personal data, including peripherals (computers, monitors, laptop computers, printers, digital cameras, projectors, etc.) that are assigned to, or regularly used by, them are maintained and used in a manner consistent with their function and such that the possibility of damage and/or loss is minimized.
Except for equipment designed to be portable, such as laptops, computer equipment used to access personal data should not be removed from data importer’s premises without prior authorization.

IV. PERSONAL DATA MANAGEMENT
A. Data Minimization
Data importer has subjected its systems and applications used to process personal data to a review for compliance with privacy-by-design and privacy-default principles and has applied the results of that review to the design of its systems and applications that process personal data. Data importer’s systems and applications have been designed to collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process the minimum personal data necessary to provide the services that are the subject of the Parties’ underlying agreement. Data importer’s systems and applications have been programmed to automatically delete personal data in accordance with data exporter’s data retention schedules or data retention instructions unless data importer is required by law to retain personal data for a longer period of time.

B. Accountability
Data importer maintains a record of processing activities (“ROPA”) that complies with GDPR, art. 30, with respect to its processing of personal data received form, or created or received on behalf of, data exporter. Data importer makes each relevant ROPA available to data exporter upon request.

C. Data Subject Rights

Correction/Update Of Personal Data: Data importer provides self-help options through its website to allow data subjects to correct and update their personal data and/or provides multiple methods (e.g., chat bot, webform, e-mail address) by which data subjects may submit requests to correct and update of their personal data.
Erasure: Data importer has established internal procedures and technical mechanisms to ensure that personal data can be permanently deleted from production systems and back-ups in response to a request from a data subject, if and to the extent required by GDPR, art. 17.
Data Portability: Data importer has implemented procedures and systems that allow data importer to identify Personal Data provided by the data subject and to transfer that personal data, in a usable form, to a third party at the data subject’s direction or to the data subject directly or by way of a storage medium.

ANNEX III – LIST OF SUB-PROCESSORS

ANNEX IV – SWITZERLAND

Standard Contractual Clauses For The Transfer Of Personal Data From Switzerland To Third Countries
Controller to Processor Transfers

In its communication of August 27, 2021, the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (“FDPIC”) recognised the new SCCs issued by the European Commission in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 as a legal basis for personal data transfers to a country without an adequate level of data protection, provided that the necessary adaptations and amendments are made for use under Swiss data protection law. Subsequently on August 31, 2022, the FDPIC announced that the new Federal Act on Data Protection of September 25, 2020 (“nFADP”) will enter into force on September 1, 2023. For the purpose of processing of personal data subject to the nFADP, references to the GDPR shall be deemed to be references to the nFADP.

The Standard Contractual Clauses for the Transfer of Personal Data from Switzerland to Third Countries incorporate by reference the Standard Contractual Clauses in this Appendix B and its Annexes I through III for personal data processed by Exiger on behalf of Customers located in Switzerland, except that, when transferring Swiss personal data to a third country:

(a) all references to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (“GDPR”) must be understood and interpreted as references to the nFADP in the context of data transfers abroad that are subject to the nFADP;

(b) any reference to a supervisory authority shall refer to the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (“FDPIC”);

(c) in the event of a data breach, prompt notification to the FDPIC shall be made;

(d) references to a “member state” or to the “EU” in the SCCs shall be deemed to include Switzerland;

(e) appointment of sub processors require the controller’s approval; and

(f) with regards to Clauses 17 and 18, these clauses shall be governed by the law of Switzerland and the Customer and Exiger agree to the jurisdictions of the courts of Switzerland with regard to any disputes that arise from these Clauses.

Appendix C to the Service Agreement

Terms for Processing Personal Data on behalf of Customers in the United Kingdom when the Exiger entity that will be providing services is located outside of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland. Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses in Appendix B.

Exiger will promptly notify Customer if Exiger discovers that Exiger’s compliance with a term or condition of this European Data Processing Agreement has violated, violates, or would violate Exiger’s or Customer’s obligations under applicable law.

Disclosures Of Personal Data As Required By Law. Before Exiger discloses Personal Data as Required By Law, Exiger will, unless prohibited by the legal requirement from doing so, notify Customer and permit Customer reasonable time to exercise its legal options to prevent or limit disclosure of Personal Data before Exiger discloses any Personal Data.

Confidentiality Of Personal Data. Exiger will maintain the confidentiality of all Personal Data. Exiger will permit its employees to Process Personal Data only after undergoing appropriate training and acknowledging their confidentiality obligations with respect to that Personal Data.

Physical, Technical And Organizational Safeguards. Exiger shall maintain an information privacy and security program that includes reasonable and appropriate measures — including technical, physical, and organizational safeguards taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons — to protect against reasonably foreseeable risks to the security, confidentiality, integrity and resilience of Personal Data, which risks could result in the unauthorized disclosure, access, use, alteration, destruction, loss or other compromise of the Personal Data, including a Personal Data Breach.

Reporting Personal Data Breaches. Exiger will report to Customer any Personal Data Breach discovered by Exiger, as soon as reasonably practicable.

Before commencement of the audit, Customer and, where applicable, Customer’s selected contractor must enter into an appropriate confidentiality agreement with Exiger.

Requests For Impact Assessment Information. Exiger will provide the information reasonably requested by Customer to assist Customer in conducting a data protection impact assessment pursuant to applicable law.

Requests From Data Subjects.

In the event a Data Subject submits a Data Subject Request directly to Exiger, Exiger will notify Customer of the Data Subject Request and will await instructions from Customer regarding its response to the Data Subject Request. Upon receipt of Customer’s written instructions, Exiger will take such action reasonably requested by Customer to assist Customer in responding to the Data Subject Request.

Exiger shall remain responsible for, and remain liable to, Customer for, the acts and omissions of its sub-processor with regard to their Processing of Personal Data as if they were Exiger’s own acts and omissions. In the event Customer objects to Exiger’s disclosure of Personal Data to a sub-processor, Exiger may terminate this European Data Processing Agreement and the Service Agreement without liability.

Sub-processors’ Physical, Technical And Administrative Safeguards. Exiger will obtain reasonable assurances, in writing, from any sub-processor to whom Exiger discloses Personal Data that the sub-processor will comply with substantially the same restrictions and conditions on Processing Personal Data that this European Data Processing Agreement imposes on Exiger.
