Anapan will impose appropriate contractual obligations upon its personnel, including relevant obligations regarding confidentiality, data protection, and data security.
6. Disclosure to Third Parties; Data Subjects Rights
Anapan will not disclose Personal Data to any government agency, court, or law enforcement except with Your written consent or as necessary to comply with applicable mandatory laws. If Anapan is obliged to disclose Personal Data to a law enforcement agency, then Anapan agrees to give You reasonable notice of the access request prior to granting such access, to allow You to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedies. If such notice is legally prohibited, Anapan will take reasonable measures to protect the Personal Data from undue disclosure as if it were Anapan’s own confidential information being requested and shall inform You promptly as soon as possible if and when such legal prohibition ceases to apply.
In case You receive any request or communication from Data Subjects that relate to the Processing of Personal Data (“Request”), Anapan shall reasonably provide You with full cooperation, information, and assistance (“Assistance”) in relation to any such Request instructed by You.
Where Anapan receives a Request, Anapan shall (i) not directly respond to such Request, (ii) forward the Request to You within five (5) business days of identifying the Request as being related to You, and (iii) provide Assistance according to further instructions from You.
7. Technical and Organizational Measures
Anapan shall implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational security measures to ensure that Personal Data is Processed according to this DPA, to provide assistance, and to protect Personal Data against a Personal Data Breach (“TOMs”) as specified in Appendix II hereto.
8. 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, Anapan shall provide upon request to You any information and assistance reasonably required for the DPIA including assistance for any communication with data protection authorities, where required, unless the requested information or assistance is not pertaining to Anapan’s obligations under this DPA.
You shall pay Anapan reasonable charges for providing the assistance in clause 8, to the extent that such assistance cannot be reasonably accommodated within the normal provision of the Services.
9. Information Rights and Audit
Anapan shall, in accordance with Data Protection Laws, make available to You on request in a timely manner such information as is necessary to demonstrate compliance by Anapan with its obligations under the Data Protection Laws.
Anapan shall, upon reasonable notice, allow for and contribute to audits of Anapan’s Processing of Personal Data, as well as the TOMs (including data Processing systems, policies, procedures, and records), during regular business hours and with minimal interruption to Anapan’s business operations. Such audits shall be conducted by You, Your affiliates, or an independent third party on Your behalf (which will not be a competitor of Anapan) that are subject to reasonable confidentiality obligations.
You shall pay Anapan reasonable costs of allowing or contributing to audits or inspections in accordance with clause 9.2 where You wish to conduct more than one audit or inspection every twelve (12) months. Anapan will immediately refer to You any requests received from national data protection authorities that relate to Anapan’s Processing of Personal Data.
Anapan undertakes to reasonably cooperate with You in its dealings with national data protection authorities and with any audit requests received from national data protection authorities.
10. Personal Data Breach Notification
In respect of any Personal Data Breach (actual or reasonably suspected), Anapan shall:
10.1 notify You of a Personal Data Breach involving Anapan or a subcontractor without undue delay after becoming aware of it, and it shall be Your responsibility to inform the supervisory authority of such breach within seventy-two (72) hours of notice by Anapan;
10.2 to the extent known at the time of notification, provide You with a description of the nature of the Personal Data Breach, the categories and approximate number of Data Subjects and Personal Data records concerned, and the measures taken or proposed to address the Personal Data Breach;
10.3 provide You with reasonable updates on the status of the Personal Data Breach and Anapan’s remediation efforts until it has been resolved;

11. Subcontracting
11.1 You consent to Anapan engaging third-party sub-processors to Process Personal Data to fulfill its obligations under the Terms. Anapan maintains a current list of sub-processors at trust.anapan.ai, which is updated prior to any new sub-processor commencing Processing of Personal Data. You may object to a new sub-processor within forty-five (45) days of the update being posted, provided such objection is based on reasonable grounds relating to data protection. In such an event, Anapan will either not appoint the sub-processor or, if this is not possible, either party may suspend or terminate the affected Service(s) (without prejudice to any fees incurred by You prior to such suspension or termination).
11.2 Prior to engaging any sub-processor that will Process Personal Data, Anapan conducts a due diligence assessment of the sub-processor, including review of the sub-processor's security controls, certifications (such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001 reports, where available), data storage locations, and contractual commitments regarding confidentiality and data protection. Anapan maintains an NDA and/or written agreement with each such sub-processor prior to onboarding.
11.3 Where Anapan, with Your consent, subcontracts its obligations and rights under this DPA it shall do so only by way of a binding written contract with the sub-processor which imposes essentially the same obligations according to Art. 28 GDPR, especially with regard to instructions and TOMs on the sub-processor as are imposed on Anapan under this DPA.
11.4 Anapan reviews its sub-processors on at least an annual basis, including verification of continued compliance with the obligations referenced in this Clause 11.
11.5 Where the sub-processor fails to fulfill its data protection obligations under the subcontracting agreement, Anapan shall remain fully liable to You for the fulfillment of its obligations under this DPA and for the performance of the subprocessor's obligations.
