suffered.

2.If a data subject is not able to bring a claim for compensation in accordance with paragraph 1 against the data exporter, arising
out of a breach by the data importer or his sub-processor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11,
because the data exporter has factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or has become insolvent, the data importer
agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data importer as if it were the data exporter, unless any successor
entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract of by operation of law, in which case the data
subject can enforce its rights against such entity.

processor agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data sub-processor with regard to its own processing
operations under the Clauses as if it were the data exporter or the data importer, unless any successor entity has assumed the

can enforce its rights against such entity. The liability of the sub-processor shall be limited to its own processing operations
under the Clauses.

Clause 7 Mediation and jurisdiction

required under the applicable data protection law.

Software Subscription Agreement (May 2021) 4

which has the same scope and is subject to the same conditions as would apply to an audit of the data exporter under the
applicable data protection law.

preventing the conduct of an audit of the data importer, or any sub-processor, pursuant to paragraph 2. In such a case the

Clause 9 Governing law

The Clauses shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established, namely …

Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the
Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the sub-processor which
imposes the same obligations on the sub-processor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the sub-
processor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to
the data exporter for the performance of the sub-processor’s obligations under such agreement.

clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in

ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data
exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the sub-processor shall be limited to its
own processing operations under the Clauses.

3.The provisions relating to data protection aspects for sub-processing of the contract referred to in paragraph 1 shall be governed
by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.

4.The data exporter shall keep a list of sub-processing agreements concluded under the Clauses and notified by the data importer
pursuant to Clause 5(j), which shall be updated at least once a year. The list shall be available to the data exporter’s data
protection supervisory authority.

Clause 12 Obligation after the termination of personal data-processing services

1.The parties agree that on the termination of the provision of data-processing services, the data importer and the sub-processor
shall, at the choice of the data exporter, return all the personal data transferred and the copies thereof to the data exporter or
shall destroy all the personal data and certify to the data exporter that it has done so, unless legislation imposed upon the data
importer prevents it from returning or destroying all or part of the personal data transferred. In that case, the data importer
warrants that it will guarantee the confidentiality of the personal data transferred and will not actively process the personal data
transferred anymore.

2.The data importer and the sub-processor warrant that upon request of the data exporter and/or of the supervisory authority, it
will submit its data-processing facilities for an audit of the measures referred to in paragraph 1.
