The categories of Customer Data Processed/transferred may include any Personal Data provided to Heartstream for the provision of the Products such as: contact and user information, such as name and email address; system log-files containing Personal Data; health-related data; other application specific Personal Data which users enter into the Products.

7. As between Heartstream and Customer, the duration of the data processing under this DPA is determined by the Customer. Subject to the termination clause of this DPA, Heartstream will Process Customer Data for the duration of the Conditions of Sale, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing. Further information on the processing of Customer Data may be provided to Customer, upon request.

8. Customer shall Process Customer Data in compliance with Applicable Data Protection Law, including when acquiring Customer Data and when instructing Heartstream to Process Customer Data.

9. Heartstream will Process Customer Data only: (i) on behalf and for the benefit of Customer; (ii) in accordance with the instructions of the Customer as documented in this DPA; (iii) for the provision of the Products; and (iv) to the extent required by the Applicable Data Protection Law that Heartstream is subject to. The parties agree that this DPA and the Conditions of Sales (including Customer providing instructions via the relevant tools used to operate the Products) constitute Customer’s documented instructions regarding Heartstream’s processing of Customer Data. Any additional or alternative instructions on the Processing of Customer Data must be agreed in writing between the Parties. Taking into account the nature of the processing, Customer agrees that it is unlikely that Heartstream can form an opinion on whether Customer’s documented instructions regarding Heartstream’s processing of Customer Data infringe Applicable Data Protection Law. If Heartstream forms such an opinion, it will immediately inform Customer, in which case, Customer is entitled to withdraw or modify its instructions.

10. Heartstream will ensure that its employees and any other person authorized to Process Customer Data: (i) are informed of the confidential nature of the Customer Data; (ii) will have access to Customer Data only to the extent necessary to provide the Products; and (iii) have committed themselves to relevant contractual obligations regarding confidentiality, data protection and security.

11. Heartstream shall maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard security (including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing and Personal Data Breaches), confidentiality and integrity of Customer Data, as set forth in the relevant security documentation provided by Heartstream in relation to the Products or as otherwise agreed between the Parties.

12. Heartstream shall notify Customer, without undue delay, after becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach. Such notification may be delivered to one or more of Customer’s representatives by any means Heartstream selects, including via email. Where, and in so far as, it is not possible to provide the information at the same time, the information may be provided in phases without undue further delay. In any case, Heartstream shall (i) reasonably assist the Customer in ensuring compliance with its Personal Data Breach obligations pursuant to Applicable Data Protection Law, and (ii) initiate respective and reasonable remedy measures. Customer agrees that unsuccessful security incidents that results in no destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Customer Data or to any of Heartstream’s equipment or facilities storing Customer Data, will not be subject to this Personal data breach clause.

13. Taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Heartstream, Heartstream shall take reasonable steps to assist Customer with appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as reasonably possible, in the fulfilment of Customer’s obligation to respond to requests from an Individual to exercise the privacy and data protection rights as set forth by the Applicable data Protection Law.

14. Heartstream shall make available to Customer all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with its obligations under Applicable Data Protection Law. Provided that an audit right is required by Applicable Data Protection Law, Customer shall have the right to audit, by appropriate means and in accordance with this clause, Heartstream’ compliance with the data protection obligations included in this DPA, unless additional audits are necessary under Applicable Data Protection Law. Such audits shall be limited to Customer Data and data processing systems that are relevant for the provision of the Products provided to Customer. Heartstream may provide to Customer a certification or report issued by a qualified independent third-party assessor that Heartstream’ business processes and procedures involving the Processing of Customer Data comply with this DPA. Customer agrees that these certification or reports shall first be used to address Customer’s audit rights under these DPA. If required under Applicable Data Protection Law, and at Customer’s costs, Heartstream will allow for additional audits, including onsite audits at Heartstream facilities used for the processing of Customer Data, by Customer or an independent, accredited third party audit firm provided they have executed a written confidentiality agreement acceptable to Heartstream. Audits shall be conducted no more than once per year, during regular business hours and with minimal disruption to Heartstream’ business and shall be subject to 6 weeks prior notice to Heartstream.

15. Customer hereby grants to Heartstream its authorization for Heartstream’s authorized sub-processors (“Sub-Processors”) to Process Customer Data. In addition, Customer grants Heartstream a general authorization to engage other Sub-processors. This authorization constitutes Customer’s prior written consent to the outsourcing of the Processing of Customer Data by Heartstream subject to such outsourcing meeting the requirements in the below clause “Objection to Sub-processors”. Heartstream may remove or add new Sub-processors at any time as long as the requirements in the clause “Objection to Sub-processors” are met.

16. If required under Applicable Data Protection Law, Heartstream shall inform Customer of any changes to the Sub-Processors listed on the URL specified in the above clause (“Consent to Sub-Processors’ engagement”). Customer may object to Heartstream’ use of a new Sub-Processor in case of reasonable and substantiated concerns regarding the protection of Customer Data, by notifying Heartstream in writing within ten (10) business days after Heartstream’s notification to Customer. If Customer does not inform Heartstream of any objections within the stipulated period, the new Sub-Processor will be deemed accepted by Customer. If Customer objects to a new Sub-Processor, Heartstream will undertake reasonable efforts to find a mutually acceptable solution and if not found within sixty (60) days, Customer may terminate the Conditions of Sales for those Products that cannot be provided without the use of the objected-to new Sub-Processor. This termination right is Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy if Customer objects to any Sub-Processor. If Customer does not terminate the affected Products, this shall be taken as an approval of the Sub-Processor by Customer.

17. When Heartstream engages a new Sub-Processor, Heartstream: (a) shall enter into a written agreement with each Sub-Processor containing data protection obligations not less protective than those in this DPA; and (b) subject to the terms set forth in the Conditions of Sales, shall be liable for the acts and omissions of its Sub-Processors regarding the Processing of Customer Data to the same extent Heartstream would be liable when performing the services of each Sub-Processor itself under the terms of this DPA.

18. Without prejudice to any applicable data restrictions specified in the Conditions of Sales and in the DPA, Customer instructs Heartstream to process Customer Data in any country in which Heartstream or its Sub-Processors maintain facilities, as necessary to provide the Products and related services.

19. Heartstream will not disclose Customer Data to any third party except where such disclosure is necessary to: (i) provide the Products; (ii) comply with the law; or (iii) comply with a valid and binding order of a governmental body or court (such as a subpoena or court order). If Heartstream receives an order from a governmental for disclosure of Customer Data, Heartstream will use every reasonable effort to redirect the governmental body to request data directly from the Customer. If compelled to disclose Customer Data to a governmental body, Heartstream will notify the Customer, unless prohibited under appliable law, and, if prohibited from notifying the Customer, Heartstream will use all reasonable lawful efforts to challenge the order for disclosure on the basis of any legal deficiencies under any appliable laws.

20. The DPA shall have the same term as the Conditions of Sales. Unless differently agreed in writing by the Parties and unless Heartstream is required by applicable law to retain certain data, upon termination of the provision of the relevant Products and related services, Customer instructs Heartstream to delete or anonymize Customer Data.

8. Limitations of Liability

8.1. Heartstream’s, Heartstream’s Affiliates’ and Heartstream’s subcontractors’ total liability, if any, and Customer’s exclusive remedy with respect to the Services or Heartstream’s performance of the Services or otherwise in connection with the Agreement is limited to an amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of fees paid by Customer to Heartstream under this Agreement in the twelve (12) months preceding the event that gives rise to claim for the Service that is the basis for the claim. This limitation shall not apply to third party claims for bodily injury or death caused by Heartstream’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
8.2. In no event shall Heartstream or its Affiliates or subcontractors be liable for any indirect, punitive, incidental, consequential, or special damages, including without limitation, lost revenues or profits, business interruption, loss of data, or the cost of substitute products or services whether arising from breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence, indemnity, strict liability or other tort.
8.3. Heartstream, its Affiliates and subcontractors will have no liability for any assistance Heartstream provides that is not required under this Agreement.

Heartstream, its Affiliates and subcontractors will have no liability for any loss of or inability to use medical or other data stored in goods, including (embedded) software or on other magnetic media, and neither Heartstream nor Heartstream’s representatives shall be responsible for reloading data in such event.
8.5. Heartstream, its Affiliates and subcontractors, shall not be liable for any claim for intellectual property infringement arising from the services provided under this Agreement.

Any intellectual property indemnification associated with any such updates, modifications or changes shall be solely provided under the terms of purchase, if one exists and is applicable, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to modify, update, add, replace, or supplement any such intellectual property indemnification.
8.6  The foregoing limitations of liability shall apply notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Agreement.

9. Expected Service Life. Heartstream follows strict procedures managing the lifecycle of its products. Such procedures define a minimum period, per equipment, during which phase Heartstream makes Services available as described in this Agreement. This period for the Equipment(s) under this Agreement is indicated in the Quotation. During or after such period, Heartstream may determine that its ability to provide the Service is hindered due to unavailability of parts, trained personnel or outdated technology; or that the Equipment can no longer be maintained in a safe and effective manner as determined by Heartstream. Heartstream will timely and proactively notify or make notification available to Customer electronically about the approaching of such dates. Customer hereby acknowledges that upon such notices, Heartstream may without liability for doing so terminate this Agreement (or part thereof), remove such Equipment from the inventory list, and adjust the coverage of the Agreement. In such event Heartstream’s sole obligation shall be to provide Customer with a refund of any Customer pre-payments for periods and parts of Service not yet rendered, unless the Parties agree to replace such Equipment on the inventory list of Equipment with another equipment purchased by Customer from Heartstream either as a new product or via an upgrade program offered by Heartstream to the Equipment; or modify the terms of this Agreement with regard to the Service provided on the Equipment. Such agreement of the Parties will be signed in writing and incorporated into this Agreement.

10. Adulterated Systems. If Heartstream determines that the Equipment has been modified or adulterated in a manner not explicitly specified in the documentation accompanying the Equipment, including without limitation by including a part, component, or device not specified as compatible (an “Adulterated System”), and such modification or adulteration hinders Heartstream’s ability to provide the Service or maintain the Equipment in a safe or effective manner, then Heartstream will promptly notify Customer of such Adulterated System. Following receipt of such notice, if Customer does not permit Heartstream (at Customer’s cost) to remediate the Adulterated System, then Heartstream may remove the Adulterated System from the Quotation, adjust the Services under this Agreement, and provide Customer with a refund of any Customer pre-payments for periods of Service not yet rendered or parts not yet rendered or parts not yet provided.

11. Proprietary Service Materials. In connection with the Services, Heartstream may deliver or transmit to the Site certain proprietary service materials (including software, hardware, tools and written documentation) that have not been purchased by or licensed to Customer. The presence of this property within the Site will not give Customer any right or title to this property or any license or other right to access, use or decompile this property. Customer hereby consents to this delivery, storage, attachment, installation and use of such proprietary service materials, and consents to the presence of a Heartstream’s locked cabinet or box at the Site for storage of this property, and to Heartstream’s removal of all or any part of this property at any time, all without charge to Heartstream. Customer agrees to return any service tools that are no longer required on-site to Heartstream and to take responsibility for exportation, duties, fees and transport cost, all in accordance with Heartstream’s instructions. Failure to do this entitles Heartstream to invoice Customer for the value of the respective tool. Customer will protect this property against damage or loss and to prevent any access to or use of this property by any unauthorized party and Customer will be liable for any violation thereof. Customer shall immediately report to Heartstream any violation of this provision.

12. Confidentiality. Each party will maintain as confidential any information furnished or disclosed to one party by the other party, whether disclosed in writing or disclosed orally, relating to the business of the disclosing party, its customers, or its patients, and this Agreement and its terms, including its pricing terms. Each party will use the same degree of care to protect the confidentiality of the disclosed information as that party uses to protect the confidentiality of its own information, but not less than reasonable care. Each party will use the disclosed information solely for the purposes of this Agreement and exercising its rights thereunder and will disclose such information only to its employees and in the case of Heartstream its Affiliates and subcontractors having a need to know such information to perform the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information will not extend to information in the public domain at the time of disclosure, or to information that is required to be disclosed by law or by court order and will expire five years after the Agreement terminates or expires. If a party is required by law or court order to disclose the other party’s confidential information, it shall first inform the other party of the request or requirement for disclosure to allow an opportunity for the other party to apply for an order to prohibit or restrict such disclosure. The party receiving the other party’s confidential information agrees and acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of these obligations of confidentiality will result in irreparable harm to the disclosing party for which there will be no adequate remedy at law. In addition to any other remedies, in such event the disclosing party shall be entitled to seek an injunction to prevent any further breach of this Agreement by the receiving party.

13. Privacy and Data Protection.

13.1. Each party will comply with applicable data protection laws governing the protection of personal data in relation to their respective obligations under this Agreement.
13.2. Where Heartstream independently processes personal data originating from the Customer (such as personal data relating to Customer’s personnel or other natural persons processed to manage the commercial relationship with the Customer and/or to comply with applicable laws), Heartstream will process such personal data in accordance with the Heartstream Privacy Notice, a copy of which will be provided upon request.
13.3. Subject to Section 13.5, Heartstream – for the provision of the Services – processes personal data on behalf and under the instructions of the Customer (such as personal data relating to Customer’s patients or other natural persons processed to provide the Services), the data processing addendum (DPA) incorporated in Exhibit 2 of this Agreement applies.
13.4. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Heartstream will process information related to the safety and performance of the Products such as log files or device parameters in order to provide the Services where strictly necessary, to enable its compliance with and performance of its task as manufacturer of (medical) devices under the applicable regulations and standards (including but not limited to the performance of vigilance, post market surveillance and clinical evaluation related activities).
13.5. If Parties have separately agreed on a data processing agreement that covers the provision of the relevant Services, such data processing agreement shall apply and the data processing addendum incorporated in Annex 2 of this Agreement will not apply. If Parties have not separately agreed on a data processing agreement that covers the provision of the relevant Services, the data processing addendum (DPA) incorporated in Annex 2 of this Agreement applies.

14. Use of Non-Personal Data. Customer agrees that Heartstream and/or its Affiliates may use any data other than personal data generated by the Equipment and/or otherwise provided by Customer to Heartstream for Heartstream’s own legitimate business purposes including but not limited to, for data analytics activities to determine trends of usage and advise on the use of Heartstream products and Services, for research, product and service development and improvement (including the development of new offerings), substantiation of marketing claims and for benchmarking purposes.

15. Export Control. Customer understands that certain transactions of Heartstream are subject to export control and sanctions laws and regulations, including but not limited to those of the UN, EU or US (“Export Regulations”) which prohibit export, re-export, transfer or diversion of certain products, technology, software and services to certain countries, entities and/or persons. The provision of Services may be subject to the granting of governmental export licenses. If such licenses or an end-user statement are required, Heartstream will contact Customer immediately and Customer shall provide Heartstream with such documents on first request. Heartstream may suspend its obligation to fulfil any order or subsequent Service if the delivery is restricted under Export Regulations or an export/import license is not granted by relevant authorities. In case of such suspension Heartstream will not incur any liability towards Customer other than reimbursing any amounts received for Services not yet rendered in compliance with Export Regulations. Customer warrants that it complies with relevant Export Regulations to ensure that replacement and replaced parts are not used for any purposes prohibited by Export Regulations. Customer warrants that replacement and replaced parts must not be resold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, to any country, to any person or entity, if required, without first obtaining approval from relevant government authorities defined by Export Regulations and/or set forth in export license.

16. Subcontracts and Assignments. Heartstream may subcontract to service contractors of Heartstream’s choice any of Heartstream’s service obligations to Customer or other activities performed by Heartstream under this Agreement. No such subcontract will release Heartstream from those obligations to Customer. Customer may not assign this Agreement or the responsibility for payments due under it without Heartstream’s prior express written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

17. Term and Termination.

17.1. The term of this Agreement is set forth in the Quotation and shall -unless to the extent in violation of applicable law- automatically renew for subsequent one-year periods (i) unless a Party notifies the other Party at least 30 days prior to the end of the term or (ii) as provided in this Agreement.
17.2. Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice if the other Party becomes or is deemed to be insolvent, discontinues business, is unable to pay its debts, is the subject of bankruptcy proceedings, enters into liquidation whether compulsory or voluntarily or has a receiver or administrator appointed over all or any part of its assets, enters into any arrangement or agreement, or assignment with, or for the benefit of its creditors or any of them, or if the other Party takes or suffers any similar action in consequence of debt or insolvency in any jurisdiction. If the Customer becomes insolvent, unable to pay its debts as they fall due, files for bankruptcy or is subject to it, has appointed a recipient, is subject to late fee on payments (temporary or permanent), or has its assets assigned or frozen, Heartstream may cancel any unfulfilled obligations or suspend its performance; provided that, however, the Customer’s financial obligations to Heartstream shall remain in full force and effect.
17.3. Customer may terminate this Agreement, wholly or partially, upon 60 days written notice to Heartstream:

17.3.1. representing that any of the Equipment is being permanently removed from the Site and is not being used in any other Customer site, or
17.3.2. specifically describing a material breach or default of this Agreement by Heartstream, provided however that Heartstream may avoid such termination by curing the condition of breach or default within such 60 days’ notice period.

17.4. Heartstream may terminate this Agreement, wholly or partially:

17.4.1. if Customer defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and fails to remedy the same within sixty (60) days of a written notice;
17.4.2. as described in Section 4 (Payment) and Section 9 (Expected Service Life).

18. Independent Contractor. Heartstream is Customer’s independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to designate Heartstream or Heartstream’s employees or Heartstream’s subcontractor or any of its employees as Customer employees, agents or partners. Heartstream’s employees and Heartstream subcontractors are under Heartstream’s exclusive direction and control. Heartstream has no liability or responsibility for and does not warrant customer’s or customer’s employees’ or other representatives’ acts or omissions related to any Services that are performed by Customer’s employees or representatives under this Agreement.

If force majeure prevents Heartstream from performing any obligation arising out of the sale, Heartstream shall not be liable to the Customer for any compensation, reimbursement, or damages.

20. Survival, Waiver, Severability. Customer’s obligation to pay any money due to Heartstream under this Agreement survives expiration or termination of this Agreement. All of Heartstream’s rights, privileges, and remedies with respect to this Agreement will continue in full force and effect after the end of this Agreement. A party’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement is not a waiver of that provision or of such party’s right to later enforce each and every provision. If any part of this Agreement is found to be invalid, the remaining part will be effective.

21. Notices. Notices or other communications shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effective if they are delivered in person or if they are sent by courier or mail to the relevant party.

22. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and is construed in accordance with the laws of the country where Customer is located, without regard to the principles of choice of law. The competent court of country where Customer is located shall have exclusive jurisdiction in case of any dispute between the Parties in connection with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Heartstream is entitled to start local legal proceedings to recover overdue payments, to seek interim relief, and/or to request interim conservatory measures to be taken to secure its interests under this Agreement.

This Agreement, including all applicable Exhibits as specified in the Quotation, constitutes the entire understanding of the Parties and supersedes all other agreements, written or oral, regarding its subject matter. No additional terms, conditions, consent, waiver, alteration, or modification will be binding unless in writing and signed by Heartstream’s authorized representative and Customer. Additional or different terms and conditions, whether stated in a purchase order or other document issued by Customer, are expressly rejected and will not apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No prior proposals, statements, course of dealing, course of performance, usage of trade or industry standard will be part of this Agreement. The Quotation and the service specific Exhibits listed on the face of this Agreement, and any associated attachments, are incorporated herein as they apply to the Services listed on the Quotation and their additional terms shall apply solely to Customer’s purchase of the services specified therein. If any terms set forth in an Exhibit conflict with terms set forth in these “General Customer Service Terms and Conditions”, the terms set forth in the other Exhibits shall govern with the exception of Section 8 hereof. If any terms set forth in this “General Customer Service Terms and Conditions” or an Exhibit conflict with terms set forth in the Quotation, the terms set forth in the Quotation shall govern.

24. Amendment. Save and except for items where Heartstream has retained the right to unilaterally amend the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement may not be amended except by written instrument signed by both Parties.

1. Scope and roles of the Parties.

1.1. Scope: This data processing addendum (“DPA”) applies when Personal Data are provided to Heartstream and Processed by Heartstream on behalf and by instruction of Customer for the provision of the Services (“Customer Data”). This DPA is governed by the terms of the Agreement between Heartstream and Customer (“Parties”). By signing this DPA, Customer enters into this DPA on behalf of itself and, to the extent required under mandatory laws and regulations of a country (“Applicable Laws”), in the name and on behalf of Customer’s Affiliates.
1.2. Roles of the Parties: Parties acknowledge and agree that with regard to the Processing of Customer Data, Heartstream will act as Processor for Customer, who acts as Controller (or Processor). If Customer is a Processor, Customer warrants that its instructions and actions with respect to the Customer Data have been authorized by the Original Controller.

2. Details of the processing.

2.1. Processing of Customer Data: The subject-matter of the Processing of Customer Data is the provision of the Heartstream Services, as described in the Agreement. The nature of the Processing of Customer Data includes hosting of Personal Data (e.g. cloud offerings); and/or administration, management, installation, configuration, migration, maintenance and support or any other Heartstream Services requiring processing (e.g. remote access to) of Customer Data stored in the cloud or on Customer’s IT systems (e.g. service offerings). The purpose of the data processing under this DPA is the provision of the Heartstream Services initiated by Customer from time to time. The categories of Individuals whose Personal Data will be subject to Processing include any individuals whose Personal Data is provided by Customer or its Original Controllers to Heartstream via the Heartstream Services or for the provision of the Heartstream Services, such as patients or Customer’s personnel, suppliers, business partners, and end-users. The categories of Customer Data Processed/transferred may include any Personal Data provided to Heartstream for the provision of Heartstream Services such as: contact and user information, such as name and email address; system log-files containing Personal Data; health-related data; other application specific Personal Data which users enter into the Heartstream Services. As between Heartstream and Customer, the duration of the data processing under this DPA is determined by the Customer. Subject to the termination clause of this DPA, Heartstream will Process Customer Data for the duration of the Agreement, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing. Further information on the processing of Customer Data may be provided to Customer, upon request.

3. Obligations of Customer. Customer shall Process Customer Data in compliance with Applicable Data Protection Law, including when acquiring Customer Data and when instructing Heartstream to Process Customer Data.

4. Obligations of Heartstream.

4.1. Customer instructions: Heartstream will Process Customer Data only: (i) on behalf and for the benefit of Customer; (ii) in accordance with the instructions of the Customer as documented in this DPA; (iii) for the provision of the Heartstream Services; and (iv) to the extent required by the Applicable Data Protection Law that Heartstream is subject to. The Parties agree that this DPA and the Agreement (including Customer providing instructions via the relevant tools used to operate the Heartstream Services) constitute Customer’s documented instructions regarding Heartstream’s processing of Customer Data. Any additional or alternative instructions on the Processing of Customer Data must be agreed in writing between the Parties. Taking into account the nature of the processing, Customer agrees that it is unlikely that Heartstream can form an opinion on whether Customer’s documented instructions regarding Heartstream’s processing of Customer Data infringe Applicable Data Protection Law. If Heartstream forms such an opinion, it will immediately inform Customer, in which case, Customer is entitled to withdraw or modify its instructions.
4.2. Confidentiality obligations of Heartstream’s personnel: Heartstream will ensure that its employees and any other person authorized to Process Customer Data: (i) are informed of the confidential nature of the Customer Data; (ii) will have access to Customer Data only to the extent necessary to provide the Heartstream Services; and (iii) have committed themselves to relevant contractual obligations regarding confidentiality, data protection and security.
4.3. Security: Heartstream shall maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard security (including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing and Personal Data Breaches), confidentiality and integrity of Customer Data, as set forth in the relevant security documentation provided by Heartstream in relation to the Heartstream Services or as otherwise agreed between the Parties.
4.4. Personal Data Breach: Heartstream shall notify Customer, without undue delay, after becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach. Such notification may be delivered to one or more of Customer’s representatives by any means Heartstream selects, including via email. Where, and in so far as, it is not possible to provide the information at the same time, the information may be provided in phases without undue further delay. In any case, Heartstream shall (i) reasonably assist the Customer in ensuring compliance with its Personal Data Breach obligations pursuant to Applicable Data Protection Law, and (ii) initiate respective and reasonable remedy measures. Customer agrees that unsuccessful security incidents that results in no destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Customer Data or to any of Heartstream’s equipment or facilities storing Customer Data, will not be subject to this Personal data breach clause.
4.5. Individuals’ rights: Taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Heartstream, Heartstream shall take reasonable steps to assist Customer with appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as reasonably possible, in the fulfilment of Customer’s obligation to respond to requests from an Individual to exercise the privacy and data protection rights as set forth by the Applicable data Protection Law.
4.6. Cooperation and audit: Heartstream shall make available to Customer all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with its obligations under Applicable Data Protection Law. Provided that an audit right is required by Applicable Data Protection Law, Customer shall have the right to audit, by appropriate means and in accordance with this clause, Heartstream’s compliance with the data protection obligations included in this DPA, unless additional audits are necessary under Applicable Data Protection Law. Such audits shall be limited to Customer Data and data processing systems that are relevant for the provision of the Heartstream Services provided to Customer. Heartstream may provide to Customer a certification or report issued by a qualified independent third-party assessor that Heartstream’s business processes and procedures involving the Processing of Customer Data comply with this DPA. Customer agrees that these certification or reports shall first be used to address Customer’s audit rights under these DPA. If required under Applicable Data Protection Law, and at Customer’s costs, Heartstream will allow for additional audits, including onsite audits at Heartstream facilities used for the processing of Customer Data, by Customer or an independent, accredited third party audit firm provided they have executed a written confidentiality agreement acceptable to Heartstream. Audits shall be conducted no more than once per year, during regular business hours and with minimal disruption to Heartstream’s business and shall be subject to 6 weeks prior notice to Heartstream.

5. Sub-Processors.

5.1. Consent to Sub-Processors’ engagement: Customer hereby grants to Heartstream a specific authorization for those entities listed on its privacy notice (“Sub-Processors”) to Process Customer Data. In addition, Customer grants Heartstream a general authorization to engage other Sub-processors. This authorization constitutes Customer’s prior written consent to the outsourcing of the Processing of Customer Data by Heartstream subject to such outsourcing meeting the requirements in the below clause “Objection to Sub-processors”. Heartstream may remove or add new Sub-processors at any time as long as the requirements in the clause “Objection to Sub-processors” are met.
5.2. Objection to Sub-Processors: If required under Applicable Data Protection Law, Heartstream shall inform Customer of any changes to the Sub-Processors listed on the URL specified in the above clause (“Consent to Sub-Processors’ engagement”). Customer may object to Heartstream’s use of a new Sub-Processor in case of reasonable and substantiated concerns regarding the protection of Customer Data, by notifying Heartstream in writing within ten (10) business days after Heartstream’s notification to Customer. If Customer does not inform Heartstream of any objections within the stipulated period, the new Sub-Processor will be deemed accepted by Customer. If Customer objects to a new Sub-Processor, Heartstream will undertake reasonable efforts to find a mutually acceptable solution and if not found within sixty (60) days, Customer may terminate the Agreement for those Services that cannot be provided without the use of the objected-to new Sub-Processor. This termination right is Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy if Customer objects to any Sub-Processor. If Customer does not terminate the affected Heartstream Services, this shall be taken as an approval of the Sub-Processor by Customer.
5.3. Sub-Processor engagement requirements: When Heartstream engages a new Sub-Processor, Heartstream: (a) shall enter into a written agreement with each Sub-Processor containing data protection obligations not less protective than those in this DPA; and (b) subject to the terms set forth in the Agreement, shall be liable for the acts and omissions of its Sub-Processors regarding the Processing of Customer Data to the same extent Heartstream would be liable when performing the services of each Sub-Processor itself under the terms of this DPA.

6. Transfers of Customer Data. Without prejudice to any applicable data restrictions specified in the Agreement and in the DPA, Customer instructs Heartstream to process Customer Data in any country in which Heartstream or its Sub-Processors maintain facilities, as necessary to provide the Heartstream Services.

7. Confidentiality of Customer Data. Heartstream will not disclose Customer Data to any third party except where such disclosure is necessary to: (i) provide the Heartstream Services; (ii) comply with the law; or (iii) comply with a valid and binding order of a governmental body or court (such as a subpoena or court order). If Heartstream receives an order from a government for disclosure of Customer Data, Heartstream will use every reasonable effort to redirect the governmental body to request data directly from the Customer. If compelled to disclose Customer Data to a governmental body, Heartstream will notify the Customer, unless prohibited under appliable law, and, if prohibited from notifying the Customer, Heartstream will use all reasonable lawful efforts to challenge the order for disclosure on the basis of any legal deficiencies under any appliable laws.

8. Termination. The DPA shall have the same term as the Agreement. Unless differently agreed in writing by the Parties and unless Heartstream is required by applicable law to retain certain data, upon termination of the relevant Heartstream Services Heartstream shall delete Customer Data.
